Utility of opening rhythms in predicting time to return of spontaneous circulation in cardiac arrest victims in a resource constrained setting: a single centre prospective observational study

Background: Time to ROSC has been shown to be an important and independent predictor of mortality and adverse neurological outcome. In resource limited situations judicious deployment of resources is crucial. Prognostication of arrest victims may aid in better resource allocation. This study aimed to assess the time to Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) in cardiac arrest victims and its relationship with opening rhythms.Methods: Consecutive victims of cardiopulmonary arrest who presented to a single center were included in this study if they met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Time at which opening rhythm was analyzed and time at which ROSC was achieved was noted. This was done for all cases and mean time to ROSC was calculated for each opening rhythm. All those patients who achieved ROSC were followed up till hospital discharge or death. Primary outcome measured was achievement of ROSC and the secondary outcome was the survival to hospital discharge.Results: A sample size of 100 was calculated to yield a significance criterion of 0.05 and a power of 0.80 based on prior studies. Out of 100 patients studied. 58% had shockable rhythms and 42% had non-shockable rhythms. Mean time to ROSC for shockable rhythm was 5.55±3.51 minutes, and for non-shockable rhythm is 17.29±4.18 minutes. There was a statistically significant difference between opening rhythms in terms of survival to hospital discharge (p=0.0329). Conclusions: Cardiac arrests with shockable rhythms attained ROSC faster when compared to nonshockable rhythms. Shockable rhythms have a better survival to hospital discharge when compared to shockable rhythms. Opening rhythms may aid the clinician in better utility of resources in a resource constrained setting.
An overview on use of desiccant dehumidifiers in modern air-conditioning

Received Date: Nov 20, 2019 / Accepted Date: Nov 29, 2019/ Published Date: Dec 02, 2019 Abstract The solid desiccant based dehumidifier used in conjunction with the conventional HVAC combines the dehumidification of solid desiccant system and with the cooling capacity of the conventional air conditioning system. This hybrid cooling system provides thermal comfort to the occupants of the conditioned space. The hybrid systems main appeal lies in the fact that, it consumes much lesser high grade electrical energy as compared to the dedicated standalone traditional air conditioning systems. The electrical energy usage is possible still lower by use of primary energy sources for to supply the thermal energy needed for the desiccant regeneration. For this purpose freely available renewable solar energy or industrial waste heat can also be used for the regeneration heat source. Sometimes it is also possible to provide condenser waste heat for the part of desiccant reactivation heat supply may increase the overall performance of the system. It was also found that this cooling system with use of air to air waste heat recovery wheel performed better than without it in terms of dehumidification as well as cooling performance. The present study report important literature survey on the dehumidification potentials of desiccant integrated hybrid cooling system operating in hot and humid climates.
MOTIVATING EMPLOYEES OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTON: CASE STUDY OF ACADEMIC TEACHERS

One of the most significant managerial functions is motivating which leads to the implementation of the particular organizational objectives, to shaping of engagement and loyalty of its members and, consequently, to the raising effectiveness of their actions. The properly constructed solutions in the area of employee motivating process may result in the several benefits for the organization, which is true also for the public institutions including the academic ones, which employ a specific group – academic teachers. The aim of the herein study was the identification of the factors which have an impact on the motivation of academic teachers employed in the higher education institution. The research was conducted with the questionnaire survey among the academic employees of the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, Poland. The conducted survey concludes that the motivation of employees is affected by various factors, mostly concerning the remuneration for work and also with the self-development possibilities, stability of employment, interpersonal relations, and effective communication. It is vital and worth to use the knowledge about them for improving the quality and efficiency of the organization.
Religion and political parties in Brazil

: While formally a secular democracy, Brazil, the largest Catholic nation in the world with a growing Evangelical population is an excellent case in which to study the interaction of religion and party politics in the Americas. This chapter considers how culture and institutions have uniquely shaped the ways in which religion interacts with political parties historically and contemporarily. To investigate this relationship, this chapter first provides a brief description of the religious landscape in Brazil, outlining the rise of Evangelical Christianity in the country. Second, the chapter analyzes the relationship between the two main religious movements in the country, Catholicism and Evangelicalism, in the evolution of politics and party dynamics. Third, it provides the current institutional context that influenced the limited connection between political parties and specific religious groups, paying special attention to the role of electoral rules and the multi-party system in undermining the connection between religious groups and political parties. Finally, this chapter elaborates on the rise of the Evangelical Caucus and its importance in the political process, discussing the ways in which the caucus weakens and strengthens the connection between religious groups and political parties.
Assessing the spatial management of mangroves and small-scale fisheries in protected areas on the Brazilian Amazon coast

About 120 million people worldwide live within 10 km of large mangrove forests, and many of them directly depend on the goods and services provided by these ecosystems. However, it remains unclear how to synchronize ecological definitions and legal conservation strategies regarding mangroves, especially in developing countries, such as Brazil. The influence of human populations’ socio-economic context in mangrove conservation policies, as well as associated challenges in incorporating this influence, are underestimated or, often, largely ignored. Considering the recent threats emerging from changes in legislation and the lack of spatial and social-ecological integrated data to plan mangrove conservation in Brazil, this paper aims to answer the following questions: (1) What suitable measures could managers and other decisionmakers adopt for efficient mangrove conservation planning? ; (2) What are the site-specific, socialecological aspects that need to be taken into account when deciding on conservation and management strategies? ; and (3) How could science contribute to the development of these measures? In order to achieve an ecosystem-based management approach, mangrove ecosystems should not be divided into sub-systems, but instead treated as an integrated system. Furthermore, interconnections with other coastal ecosystems must be assessed and taken into account. This is crucial for effective systematic conservation planning. Also, most of the particular social-ecological aspects in the different types of mangrove ecosystems along the Brazilian coast, and how those differences might be considered while planning for conservation, remain poorly understood. Based on similar drivers of change, geological features, and likely impacts of climate change, a macro-unit approach is proposed to group mangrove systems along the Brazilian coast and guide national policies. This paper draws parallels with management approaches worldwide to find common points and hence lessons to be applied in other regional realms. It considers the issues of legal vulnerability and needs for social-ecological data on mangroves, contributing to systematic conservation planning and ecosystem-based management for these ecosystems.
THE ACQUISITION ORDER OF PAST TENSES: AN INTERLANGUAGE ANALYSIS

This study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that there appears a systematic order of the acquisition of past tenses. It is claimed that irregular past tense verbs are acquired earlier than regular past tense verbs. In comparison to the acquisition of irregular and regular past verbs, the acquisition of the past copula be forms `was` and `were` is believed to take place much earlier. To test this hypothesis, the data were collected from forty-six students who were asked to write an essay with a minimum of 250 words to get data of the use of past tenses. The findings reveal partial support for the hypothesis, suggesting that the universal order of morpheme acquisition may not be a stable phenomenon.
Drivers of Participation in Collective Arrangements in the Agri‐Food Supply Chain. Evidence from Italy Using a Transaction Costs Economics Perspective

The analysis of institutions in the agro‐food sector is gaining momentum since it represents a complex and relevant area of study as concerns intermediate‐product markets. Traditionally there has been a problem of organization among farmers mainly due to the reluctance to pool decisional and property rights on input and/or output. Following the Transaction Costs Economics framework, the paper aims to investigate which are the main drivers of the collective forms of organization in the Italian agro‐food system, paying particular attention to transaction costs’ attributes and to the increasing role played by the institutional environment as well. The choice to join a cooperative or producer organization is therefore conceptualized as a governance structure choice. In this regard, based on the Italian version of the Farm Accountancy Data Network, econometric models are estimated in order to account for the two organizational alternatives under investigation.
Hydraulic design aspects of rock-weir fishways with notch for habitat connectivity

Abstract Nature-like fishways have been installed at many migration barriers in recent years to mitigate the effects of human development and habitat fragmentation on fish. The design of these fishways determines the flow characteristics and ultimately the success of these passage facilities. This study numerically investigates the hydraulic properties associated with small passage openings (notch) that are provided in rock-weir-type fishways. Two distinct flow regimes, weir and transitional, were identified. The rock-weir with notch ensured suitable hydraulics for fish migration and sufficient fish resting areas in weir pools. A dimensionless weir coefficient was introduced to existing depth–discharge relationships to compute the weir flow more accurately. A reduction factor for the maximum velocity was also proposed as a function of discharge. This study optimized the design of rock-weir fishways considering passage notches based on fish resting zones, volumetric dissipated power, and performance for upstream fish migration.
13. Soy protein infant formula in infant nutrition

The indications for soy infant formula were critically reviewed by doing a search through standard search-engines such as Pubmed. The strict medical indications for soy infant formula (SIF) are limited to galactosemia and hereditary lactase deficiency. In the treatment of cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA), SIF is mainly used, preferably after the age of 6 months, for economic reasons or if infants refuse to drink bitter tasting extensive hydrolysates. SIF is better tolerated in infants with Immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated CMPA than in infants with non-IgE mediated CMPA. SIF is dissuaded mainly because of its ‘phytoestrogen’ content. Isoflavone serum levels are much higher in infants fed SIF than in breastfed or cow milk formula fed infants. Administration of pure isoflavones to animals causes decreased fertility, but clinically relevant adverse effects of SIF in infants have not been reported. SIF remains an option for feeding term born infants if breastfeeding is not possible and if cow’s milk based infant formula is not tolerated.
Normal and abnormal vaginal microbiota

Abstract: The normal and abnormal vaginal microbiome are an ecosystem of up to 200 species influenced by genetic, ethnic, environmental and behavioral factors. Cultural methods release only a small clinically unimportant spectrum. Lactobacilli are the most dominant and maintain a pH value between 3.8 and 4.5. They support a defense system against dysbiosis and infections to care for a healthy outer and inner genital tract, a balanced restitution after intercourse and normal pregnancy and childbirth. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most frequent dysbiosis with a lack of lactobacilli and an overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria. Special Gardnerella vaginalis strains work together with Atopobium vaginae, Clostridiales and others, but also Lactobacillus iners in a vaginal polymicrobial biofilm, which is sexually transmitted and cannot be destroyed by the recommended antibiotics.
Utilization of an Electronic Mail to Reveal the Hidden of Reproductive Health Problems among Female Students at Fayoum University

Background: Reproductive health is an important part of world health and as a part of human rights. It is vital for wellbeing, to prevent morbidity and maintain economic productivity Aim: the study aimed to evaluate the effect of utilization of an electronic mail to reveal the hidden of reproductive health problems among female students at Fayoum university. Design: Quasi-experimental design was utilized. Sampling: A total of 350 female university students comprised in the study sample and were purposively selected, from 16 faculties at Fayoum University. Tool: A web based structure questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection. Results: the mean age of students under study were 18.1±1.3 years; 61.7% of the study sample had menstrual disorder; as 80.1 % of them didn’t reveal this problem for any one. Also 72% of the sample had symptoms of RTIs and 69.8% of them didn’t report this problem also. In addition 12.6% of the sample reported breast problem and 90.0% of them didn’t seek treatment or tell anyone. The results also reveal 63.4% of the sample had unsatisfactory knowledge regarding reproductive health. As, 87.1% had unhealthy practices score level regarding items in reproductive health. On the other hand 6% of the sample exposure to sexual harassment and 100% of them didn’t discuss this problem with any one. Also, a strong positive correlation was detected between students' total knowledge score level and total practice score level (p<0.001). Conclusion: Majority of the female students at Fayoum University didn’t reveal her reproductive health problem for any one. While by electronic email more than half of the female students who had reproductive health problem prefer to express their problem with the researchers, in addition about quarter of female students who had reproductive health problem agree to referral to health care services by the researchers. Recommendations: Develop and evaluate strategies to overcome the factors facing adolescent students to express the reproductive health problem and use reproductive health services.
Combined action of Lavandula angustifolia Miller essential oil and gamma irradiation treatment on some biological aspects of the Mediterranean flour moth Ephestia kuehniella (Zeller)

Abstract This study evaluated the effectiveness of an integrated pest management intervention for controlling the Mediterranean flour moth Ephestia kuehniella Zeller using gamma radiation and Lavandula angustifolia Moench essential oil as feasible alternatives to synthetic insecticides. The mortality rate of E. kuehniella larvae treated with either gamma radiation or L. angustifolia essential oil separately was much lower than the mortality rate after the combined treatment. High synergistic effects (Synergism = 0.1) were observed in all dosages, especially using 1.14 and 1.7 µL/L air of L. angustifolia in combination with 200 Gy of gamma radiation, which was more effective than the other treatments. The results of the antifeedant test indicated that the relative growth rate and relative consumption rate in fumigated (0.021 and 0.021 mg/mg/day) and irradiated (0.026 and 0.049 mg/mg/day) larvae were significantly lower than those of non-treated ones (0.035 and 0.093 mg/mg/day). The results also showed a significant increase in the efficacy of conversion of ingested food and feeding deterrent index due to both irradiation and essential oil. The experiments showed that the known insecticidal effectiveness of essential oils can be enhanced by preliminary irradiation.

THE RIBAS MINI OPEN PROCEDURE FOR THE TREATMENT OF FEMOROACETABULAR IMPINGEMENT. MIDTERM RESULTS IN 117 CONSECUTIVE CASES

Introduction: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has been recently recognized as the main cause of hip pain in sportsmen. We analyse if clinical and functional results of surgical treatment are influenced by preoperative degenerative hip changes. Materials and Methods: A series of 117 consecutive Ribas mini open procedures (mini open femoroacetabular osteoplasty with labral refixation) were performed in 115 sportsmen with confirmed clinical, radiographic, and MR-arthrography diagnosis of FAI, and were evaluated with a minimum follow up of 4 years (range: 4 – 6,5). According to Tonnis Grade for preoperative radiological degenerative hip stage, the hips were divided into 3 groups: group A/Tonnis 0: 32 hips; group B/Tonnis 1: 61 hips; group C/Tonnis 2: 24 hips. A Combined Clinical Score (CCS), which includes Impingement test, Merle D’Aubigne and WOMAC scores, was used to evaluate the patients before surgery and at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and every year after operation. Satisfactory and unsatisfactory results were obtained and collected. SPSS 10.0 software (SPSS INC, Chicago, Ill) was used for statistical analysis and comparisons were performed by means of chi-squared and Wilcoxon tests; p Results: With CCS method, satisfactory results were obtained in group A (Tonnis 0) in 93,4% of the cases at 12 months, in 96,5% at 24 months, and in 97,8% at the latest follow up of 48 months; in group B (Tonnis 1) satisfactory results were observed in 91,3% of the cases at 12 months, in 91,2% at 24 months, and in 93,6% at 48 months; in group C (Tonnis 2) satisfactory results were obtained in 58,3% of the cases at 12 months, in 55,3% at 24 months, and in 50,1% at 48 months. Differences between groups A and C, as like between groups B and C, were significant (p 0,05). Conclusions: Midterm results of the Ribas mini open procedure for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement are encouraging, expecially in hips not exceeding Tonnis Grade 1 osteoarthrosis, as results depend directly on degenerative state. If symptomatic patients are treated in early stages, excellent expectancies can be obtained with this procedure already at midterm. In addition, instruction of general physicians and specialists in the diagnosis of FAI is of paramount importance.
Nutritional support after spinal cord injury

RECOMMENDATIONS STANDARDS: There is insufficient evidence to support treatment standards. GUIDELINES: There is insufficient evidence to support treatment guidelines. OPTIONS: Nutritional support of patients with spinal cord injuries is recommended. Energy expenditure is best determined by indirect calorimetry in these patients because equation estimates of energy expenditure and subsequent caloric need tend to be inaccurate.
Ethnic Cleavages: The Descendant and Clan Sentiment on The Election of Regional Executives (Pemilukada) in Northern Tapanuli, North Sumatera Province

This study aims to understand the phenomenon of ethnicity, namely the existence of ethnic cleavages in the form of strengthening social units through descent and clan sentiments at the moment of election of the regional executive (Pemilukada) in the era of democratic decentralization. This problem was approached using Dunning and Harrison's theory of cross-cutting cleavages and ethnic voting. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews with subjects, namely descendants and clans in four districts in the northern Tapanuli. The results of the study show that (i) ethnic cleavages occur because of the utilization and mobilization of social units namely descent and clan groups in the moment of Pemilukada , (ii) the strengthening of descent and clan group sentiments in Pemilukada is the impact of competition and contestation which are packaged as political capital for gain power, and (iii) political actors redefine ethnicity as Tobanese to smaller identities namely descendants and clans in each cultural region. The strengthening of factions in internal ethnicity is a strong indication of cleavages and the game of primordialism in the era of democratic decentralization
