Condensation processes are widely spread in various branches of industrial production and, in particular, in electric power industry, where, according to experts' data, heat removal in thermodynamic cycles of steam turbine plants (STP) operating as part of combined cycle plants (CCP) and autonomously, in the 21st century will be exercised mainly in air-cooled condensers (ACC). At the same time, the use of ACC as a part of steam turbine units operating in climatic conditions typical for the Russian Federation (RF) determines the relevance of problems to be solved to ensure their safe operation at subzero outside temperatures. One of these challenges is to ensure long-term safe operation of the ACC, with the formation of ice on the inner surface of the heat exchange pipes minimized. To conduct the research, Steam Turbine Air-Cooled Condenser research and training stand was used. The paper presents the combined circuit and measurement diagram of the research and training stand, and gives a brief description of the design of the ACC. Experimental modes have been determined, and methods for processing experimental data and analyzing the results obtained have been developed. As part of the study, experiments were carried out on 18 steady-state operation modes of the stand. At the same time, the values of the main operational parameters of the ACС varied within the following limits: the temperature of the cooling air at the ACС inlet — from minus 11,5°C to minus 1,8°C; the cooling ratio — from 176 to 790. The relative weight content of air in the vapor varied from 0,051% to 0,12%. An analysis of the obtained results was carried out, on the basis of which a relationship was established that allows, for various negative temperatures of the cooling air at the inlet to the ACС, to determine the highest value of the cooling ratio at which its long-term safe operation is possible. An algorithm for using the obtained relationship is given.

On a specialized testing installation — a high-voltage Marx generator, which allows the formation of a spark discharge up to 20 meters long, the process of the impact of lightning radio emission in the microwave range on an aircraft (AC) is simulated. A metal AC model made on a scale of 1:50 was placed in a 9 m long rod-plane spark gap. A positive voltage pulse was applied to the high-voltage electrode from the generator (front 100 μsec, duration 7500 μsec). The generated spark discharge passed through the AC model. It was found that when the spark channel passes through the body of the model, electromagnetic pulses of the microwave range with a duration of less than 500 psec and a rise time of less than 100 psec arise. The measurement of the resulting microwave pulses was carried out using special radio equipment in the subnanosecond range. High-speed photography of the discharge development, carried out synchronously with electromagnetic measurements, showed that microwave pulses (up to 10 GHz) arise at the stage of development of the spark discharge leader in the part of the “high-voltage electrode – insulated model” gap. Such pulses can be considered as a factor dangerous for various AC microwave radio systems, when the AC is struck by lightning, as well as for other objects, including power facilities, which contain equipment with microelectronics. Such microwave pulses can also occur during nearby lightning discharges (for example, in a lightning rod of a power substation), when a powerful streamer corona occurs on devices and wires of ultra-high voltage lines), and when a high-voltage spark discharge occurs when switching equipment (disconnectors, arresters) is triggered. In this case, disruptions are possible in the operation of control equipment (for example, relay protection devices) that contains microelectronics, as well as various communication means available at electric power facilities operating in the microwave range (above 1 GHz).

Áskoranir og tækifæri í skipulagi náms nemenda með þroskahömlun á framhaldsskólastigi í ljósi kenninga um inngildandi menntun og félagslegt réttlæti
Authors: Sverrisdóttir Anna Björk
Published: May 2024

Stefna sem byggir á hugmyndafræði um inngildandi menntun eða skóla án aðgreiningar tekur til allra skólastiga en var fyrst lögfest með grunnskólalögum árið 2008. Inntak stefnunnar snýst um að mæta náms- og félagslegum þörfum nemenda í almennu skólastarfi með manngildi, lýðræði og félagslegt réttlæti að leiðarljósi. Þrátt fyrir að mannréttindanálgun stefnunnar sé almennt viðurkennd þá hefur reynst erfitt að innleiða hana með árangursríkum hætti, ekki síst á framhaldsskólastiginu þar sem menntun nemenda með þroskahömlun fer enn fram í sérúrræðum innan skólanna. Með tilkomu laga um farsæld barna til 18 ára aldurs og áherslu á snemmtækan stuðning má ætla að gera þurfi róttækar breytingar á kerfinu þar sem nú á að draga úr áherslu á greiningu sem forsendu fyrir stuðningi við nemendur og stuðla að jöfnuði meðal nemenda. Markmið greinarinnar er að varpa ljósi á áskoranir varðandi útfærslu inngildandi menntunar og stuðning við nemendur með þroskahömlun í framhaldsskóla og um leið benda á tækifæri til breytinga. Rannsóknarspurningin var: Hvaða áskoranir og tækifæri má greina varðandi skipulag náms og stuðnings fyrir nemendur með þroskahömlun á framhaldsskólastigi með hliðsjón af kenningum um inngildandi menntun og félagslegt réttlæti? Gögnin spanna viðtöl við yfirmenn starfsbrauta, foreldra og nemendur auk þess sem opinber gögn er snúa að menntun á framhaldsskólastigi voru greind. Niðurstöður benda til þess að nemendur með þroskahömlun séu ekki fullgildir þátttakendur í skólasamfélaginu og að stærstu áskoranirnar felist í skilgreiningu á hugtakinu stuðningur með hliðsjón af áherslum inngildandi menntunar sem og skipulagi stuðnings við nemendur með þroskahömlun í formi aðgreindra úrræða. Þá stuðlar hið marglaga stuðningskerfi að frekari ójöfnuði meðal nemenda þar sem úthlutun stuðnings tekur mið af greiningum. Tækifærin til breytinga felast ekki síst í nýjum áherslum varðandi farsæld barna. Boðaðar eru breytingar á lögum varðandi stuðning við nemendur og út frá niðurstöðum má álykta að mikilvægt sé að sameiginlegur skilningur ríki um inntak þeirra hugtaka sem fram koma og snúa að stuðningi.

Plays as linguistic games: a literal interpretation of Beckett’s postwar theatre
Authors: Sanges Antonio
Published: May 2024

In this article, I propose a ‘literal’ interpretation of Beckett’s postwar theatre, which allows to give importance to an ‘aesthetic of sound’ in which a work of art finds its own sense in the fact that it is a linguistic game created by an author. After 1945, the author becomes unable to speak about the profound themes of the Western tradition, but can write plays in which there is the configuration of an aesthetic of the small talk, to be analyzed according to a hermeneutics of superficiality.

Comparison of perioperative practices for placement of central venous access devices (CVAD) in children with haemophilia
Authors: Kwan Celia , Chan Anthony KC , Koh Pei Lin , Kadir Nur Insyirah Abdul , Decker Kay , Lim Chiew Ying , Lam Joyce Ching Mei
Published: May 2024

Background

In children with haemophilia (CwH), central venous access devices (CVADs) are frequently placed to aid in the delivery of factor concentrates. In those who develop inhibitors, CVADs also allow for easy venous access and facilitation of immune tolerance therapy.

Aim

In this study, we compare perioperative practices for CVAD placement in children with haemophilia to assess similarities and differences in practices across centres in two countries (Singapore and Canada).

Methods

Retrospective chart review was conducted involving CwH (with and without inhibitors) who underwent CVAD placement from January 2007 to September 2017 at two centres in Singapore and at one centre in Hamilton, Canada. Data obtained included demographics, operative details, preoperative investigations, perioperative factor replacement, use of bypassing agents, antibiotic and antifibrinolytic use, length of stay, complications and need for CVAD revision.

Results

Twenty-one CwH were included in the data analysis. Amongst those without inhibitors, the mean preoperative factor dose was 50.0 IU/kg (SD=7.6) in Singapore, and 72.4 IU/kg (SD=12.5) in Hamilton (p=0.002); mean total factor use in the perioperative period was 425.0IU/kg (SD=114.9) in Singapore and 646.8IU/kg (SD=118.1) in Hamilton (p=0.004); mean duration of clotting factor replacement was 5.3 days (SD=0.9) in Singapore and 6.9 days (SD=0.7) in Hamilton (p=0.004). Amongst those with inhibitors, the mean preoperative dose of rFVIIa was 160.5 mcg/kg (SD=99.9) in Singapore and 88.2 mcg/kg (SD=3.8) in Hamilton (p=0.244); mean total rFVIIa used from surgery to discharge was 3,008.0 mcg/kg (SD=2305.9) in Singapore and 2,640.2 mcg/kg (SD=134.1) in Hamilton (p=0.842); mean duration of rFVIIa cover was 5.3 days (SD=1.7) in Singapore and 9.5 days (SD=2.1) in Hamilton (p=0.054). None of the CwH without inhibitors developed postoperative complications, compared to 57% in those with inhibitors (p=0.006).

Conclusion

Amongst CwH without inhibitors, significant variations were seen in perioperative factor replacement. Amongst those with inhibitors, there were also differences in perioperative practices across centres, although not statistically significant. Across centres, CwH with inhibitors were found to have more postoperative complications.
Ageing and women with bleeding disorders
Authors: Radhakrishnan Sheila , d’Oiron Roseline
Published: May 2024

As life expectancy increases, women with bleeding disorders can expect to live for decades after their menopause – potentially with a range of comorbidities including cardiovascular (CV) disease, cancer and osteoporosis. Menstrual bleeding around the menopause may be heavy and unpredictable for women with bleeding disorders (WBD). Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) remains the gold standard for those with debilitating menopausal symptoms and for osteoporosis prevention. Levels of endogenous von Willebrand factor (VWF) increase with age in the general population without bleeding disorders, with an associated rise in levels of Factor VIII (FVIII). Evidence also suggests age-related increases in VWF in people with von Willebrand disease (VWD), with limited but potentially associated evidence for increases in FVIII in those with mild or moderate haemophilia A. However, it appears that age-related changes in factor levels do not correlate completely with bleeding episodes, and more data are needed to fully understand the picture. New models of comprehensive care are needed that take account of age-related comorbidities in both women and men with bleeding disorders, including the impact of polypharmacy and its potential for causing adverse effects and impaired treatment adherence. Consideration will also be needed for bleeding cover during interventions such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy that become more likely with age. Protocols and care pathways need to be updated as the implications of ageing in women and men with bleeding disorders become better understood.
Advocacy worldwide for women with bleeding disorders
Authors: Grimberg Evelyn
Published: May 2024

Raising awareness that bleeding disorders affect women – not just men – is a key part of advocacy initiatives around the world. The European Haemophilia Consortium (EHC) and national patient organisations have run successful campaigns, with a wealth of information for women and girls with bleeding disorders and non-specialist healthcare professionals, including bleeding assessment tools, patient stories, blogs and videos. Some hold conference sessions and webinars devoted to bleeding disorders in women. By drawing on ideas and resources already available, patient organisations and other groups for women with bleeding disorders can fast-forward their advocacy plans, improve awareness and accelerate change.
The journey of gene therapy in haemophilia – putting the patient at the centre of the hub and spoke model
Authors: Noone Declan , Astermark Jan , O'Mahony Brian , Peyvandi Flora , Khair Kate , Pembroke Luke , Jenner Kathryn
Published: May 2024

As gene therapy for haemophilia is now licensed in Europe, and the hub and spoke approach is widely promoted for its delivery and follow-up, it is essential that people with haemophilia (PwH) who are eligible and opt to have this treatment are enabled to obtain the maximum benefit. Ensuring the pathway that makes up the patient gene therapy journey is effective is key to achieving this. EAHAD and the EHC have recommended that gene therapy is delivered through a hub and spoke model of care to ensure that the right expertise is available throughout the various stages of the haemophilia gene therapy journey. Effective communication between hub and spoke centres is essential, and the processes that make up the journey must be understood clearly by both PwH and the multidisciplinary teams delivering their care. The starting point for this is to take each step of the gene therapy journey in turn – through initial engagement, eligibility, detailed patient education, informed decision-making, dosing, and follow up in year 1, year 2 and beyond – and to consider and identify the roles and responsibilities of the patient, the hub centre and the spoke centre. It is important that the expectations of both health care practitioners (HCPs) and patients are aligned with the key challenges and goals associated with each step. Understanding these from the patient point of view will help to ensure that the individual PwH treading this path receive the information, guidance and support they need from hub and spoke HCPs throughout their journey, and that they, as the patient, remain the focus of care. Visualising the journey may help to explain the gene therapy clinical pathway to PwH and could provide a useful tool for HCPs in spoke centres. Visualisation may also serve as a tool for facilitating discussion, not only in terms of initial engagement and education, but throughout the haemophilia gene therapy journey.
The impact of the Contaminated Blood Scandal on the next generation: the state of the evidence
Authors: Wherry Sally-Anne , Berragan Liz , Jennings Ros
Published: May 2024

The Contaminated (or Tainted) Blood Scandal was a worldwide event that infected many people, including people with haemophilia (PwH), with blood-borne diseases. This has had a significant psychological impact on the families involved, alongside the physical and financial toll. Although some studies have focused on those directly affected – PwH, their families, and the community – very little is known about the intergenerational impact. This narrative review explores the impact on the children of PwH affected by the contaminated blood, demonstrating a significant gap in the understanding of the families’ experiences.

Published: May 2024

Introduction

For people with haemophilia (PwH) who live in developing countries, haemophilia continues to be a condition with serious medical and social consequences. In Morocco, the efforts of patient associations and medical teams have led to the creation of a national programme for haemophilia care since the end of 2012, and the country is no longer solely reliant on World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH) donations for access to factor products. There is growing recognition of the impact of the pain experienced by PwH. To continue to improve treatment for PwH in Morocco, it is important to ensure that they are also able to manage haemophilia-related pain.

Aims

This study aims to describe the prevalence, characteristics, and effects of pain experienced by PwH in Morocco for the first time, in order to increase understanding, and to support consideration of interventions and improvements in care.

Methods

We conducted a prospective, descriptive survey of the experience of pain in PwH attending the Department of Clinical Hematology and Pediatric Oncology in Casablanca, using the Multidimensional Hemophilia Pain Questionnaire (MHQP) approved by the WFH. All PwH with mild, moderate or severe haemophilia and over 18 years of age who presented to the department during the study period were included; consent was obtained. The data collection period lasted 6 months from October 2020 to April 2021.

Results

60 PwH completed the questionnaire (51 haemophilia A, 9 haemophilia B; 38 severe, 22 moderate). All respondents had experienced pain, 90% during the previous year and 75% during the last 3 months. 60% reported the occurrence of pain more than once a week. 65% reported that the right knee was the most painful site in the past year, followed by the right ankle (58%). The right knee was also the site of pain with the most negative impact in the past year. 58% responded that the evening was the time of most intense pain. The therapeutic strategies used against pain were pharmacological and non-pharmacological. 60% of respondents reported using analgesics and 50% reported using coagulation factor substitution for pain relief. Regarding non-pharmacological strategies, rest was reported by 40%, elevation of the painful site/change of position by 20%, and ice by 10%. The majority reported being satisfied or very satisfied with the current treatment of their pain by health professionals.

Conclusion

This study shows that pain is still very present in PwH treated at our haemophilia centre, with a significant impact on different areas of life. There is a need for action to standardise treatment approaches and develop protocols for pain management in PwH.
Management of a patient with factor X deficiency with FEIBA: a case report
Authors: Borboruah Luish , Dutta Anupam
Published: May 2024

Hereditary factor X (FX) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that increases bleeding tendencies, ranging from epistaxis to intracranial haemorrhage (ICH), which can be life-threatening. Single factor concentrates are recommended for treating rare bleeding disorders; however, in India most people with FX deficiency are treated with fresh frozen plasma (FFP). We report a case of FX deficiency in a child with a history of intracranial bleeding who was found to have a novel mutation in the F10 gene. Although managed with weekly prophylactic FFP infusions, he continued to experience regular bleeding including two further instances of ICH. Other therapeutic options were unavailable or unaffordable. When the Indian Government added FEIBA to the essential drug list, a decision was made to try FEIBA prophylaxis to better manage his bleeding. In 2019, he was started on a weekly dose of FEIBA, 500 IU (20 IU/ kg and his prophylactic FFP transfusion regimen was stopped. His bleeding episodes started to reduce after two months of starting FEIBA prophylaxis. Over the last three years he has had only four minor bleeding episodes and has remained completely free of major bleeding. He is now able to receive home-based therapy and his prognosis can be considered to be improved. FEIBA may be a useful medicinal therapy for FX-deficient patients who suffer severe haemorrhagic episodes in countries where plasma-derived factor X (pdFX) is not available.

Authors: Kennedy John , Chatterjee Ishita
Published: May 2024

Objective: The Children of Manual Scavengers suffer socio-legal exclusion based on their traditional occupation of manually remove human excreta. As it is inhuman practice enforced by the caste system they are stigmatized as socially untouchable, economically disadvantaged, and legally neglected. Moreover it leads to continuous human rights violations. The aim of this study is to examine the occupational impact on the rights of children of manual scavengers and critically analyse the legislative protection and judicial consciousness on the empowerment and protection of these children’s rights. 
 
Methods: The legal research as it aims to analyse the legislative provisions, precedents along with legal principles and programs this research is a type of normative legal research.
 
Results and Conclusion: Despite the Constitutional protection of child rights, the children of manual scavengers suffer on the violation of their right as right to education, wellbeing, social inclusion and protection against child. The legislative protection on child rights and judicial activism on the empowerment of child rights are not positively effected in the life of the children of manual scavengers against the occupational impact. Therefore it is imperative to have special legislative measures along with executive mechanism to effectively enforce and special judicial care in protecting and promoting the rights of these children whose rights are violated due to the occupation of manual scavenging as traditional and caste forced work.
 
Research implications: The research highlights that the traditional occupation of manually removing the human excreta as caste forced occupation impacts in the violation of child rights in the entire facet.

The OBJECTIVE was to study the possibilities of endoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of bleedings in patients with pancreatitis.

METHODS AND MATERIALS. Based on the analysis of 135 patients with pancreatitis complicated by gastroduodenal bleeding, we determined the location and possibilities of endoscopic hemostasis. The article analyzes 2 groups of patients. The first group (64 patients with acute pancreatitis and gastroduodenal bleeding). The second group (71 patients with chronic pancreatitis complicated by gastroduodenal bleeding). The article shows features of endoscopic examination of patients with pancreatitis complicated by gastroduodenal bleeding.

RESULTS. The leading method of stopping bleeding in these groups of patients is endoscopic hemostasis.

CONCLUSION. The choice of endoscopic hemostasis method depends on the cause and nature of the bleeding. The developed technique of endoscopic hemostasis has reduced the mortality rate from gastroduodenal bleeding in patients with pancreatitis to 3 %.

Authors: Lysenko A. V. , Yaremenko A. I. , Ivanova E. A. , Vereshchagina E. A.
Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION. Lipomas are benign mesenchymal tumors consisting of mature adipocytes. They are classified according to their histological picture, localization in the oral cavity and the type of tissues involved in the pathological process.

The OBJECTIVE was to present the clinical case and literature review.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. We conducted the search in the PubMed database for the last 86 years (1937–2023) with keywords «oral lipoma» or «tongue lipoma».

RESULTS. We reviewed 60 articles with 77 identified lipomas. The most publications were represented by the USA (n=10, 16.39%) and India (n=10, 16.39%). We found out that the average age was 51.38 years (51.38±15.57); and most of them occurred over 50 years old. Lipomas are mainly localized on the mucous membrane of the cheek (n=24, 31.17%), then on the tongue (n=17, 22.8%) and in other places. The most common histological picture was spindle cell lipomas (n=13, 27.66%), followed by fibrolipomas (n=8, 17.02%) and other types.

CONCLUSIONS. Lipomas are relatively rare neoplasms of the oral cavity. chronic traumatization of the oral mucosa is the predisposing factor for lipoma development. Preventive examinations every six months is recommended, if a patient has dental constructions. Any formation removed from the oral cavity is subjected to histological verification.

El Magisterio como sector socioeconómico relevante para tramitar la conflictividad agraria y ecológica en el Departamento de Bolívar, Caribe colombiano

Published: May 2024

El departamento de Bolívar está dividido en subregiones. Montes de María es una de ellas e incluye los municipios de María La Baja, San Juan, San Jacinto, Carmen de Bolívar, Córdoba, El Guamo y Zambrano. El conflicto en esta zona involucra diversos actores y razones que en todos los escenarios han vulnerado los derechos de los pobladores locales, en su mayoría campesinos y afrodescendientes. Apesar de la gran biodiversidad que se presenta en esta subregión, esta zona del país es reconocida a nivel nacional por su conflictividad histórica en la que convergen grupos al margen de la ley (paramilitares y guerrilla), terratenientes, empresarios, campesinos y afrodescendientes. Dicho conflicto se ha atribuido, en gran parte, a que desde el Estado se han promovidopolíticas de industrialización de cultivos de especies no nativas como la palma de aceite y que, por sus intereses extractivistas, legalmente ha favorecido a aquellos con el poder. Entre los efectos de la industrialización de los cultivos de palma aceitera destacan despojo de tierras, proletarización de campesinos y afrodescendientes, masacres, destrucción de ecosistemas de gran relevancia como el bosque seco tropical, apropiación del recurso hídrico para riego y cuidado de los cultivos de palma, entre otros. Si bien históricamente se han presentado escenarios importantes para, en principio, fortalecer el sector agrario como fue el caso de la construcción del Distrito de Riego de María La Baja, e intentos de acabar el conflicto, estos aún no redundan en un bienestar definitivopara los pobladores locales. Asimismo, se han realizado investigaciones desde la academia para conocer más a fondo este conflicto y realizar mapeo de las zonas más marcadas por la violencia, en colaboración conjunta con los campesinos. No obstante, a partir de revisión de la literatura, no se ha evidenciado un papel relevante del sector del magisterio para tramitar la conflictividad agrariay ecológica mencionada, pese a ser este uno de los sectores más reconocidos como mediador y transformador de la sociedad, en especial por parte de los educadores que también han vivido el conflicto en estas regiones. Considerando todo lo anterior, el presente ensayo pretende proponer y argumentar diversas estrategias que reconozcan en el magisterio un actor socioeconómico relevantepara tramitar la conflictividad agraria y ecológica, específicamente en el caso particular del Departamento de Bolívar.

Balinese, as the mother tongue of the Balinese people, faces challenges in its survival. Although the number of Balinese speakers is still relatively large, there is an alarming shift among the younger generation in the use of this language. This phenomenon creates the need for more serious efforts to strengthen the position of the Balinese language, especially in the family environment and early education. The method used in this research is a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collection carried out through a literature review. Analysis shows that Balinese is included in the category of endangered languages according to language typology by Michel Krauss. The use of Balinese as the language of instruction in initial education at school level is also an important focus. However, national policies and globalization pressures often lead to a decline in the use of regional languages in schools. The importance of using the mother tongue in education, especially at the initial level, has been supported by international organizations such as UNESCO. Efforts to strengthen the Balinese language can be carried out through several strategies, including strengthening the use of the Balinese language in the family environment, using Balinese as the language of instruction in schools at the educational level beginning, holding family-level Balinese language competitions, and reviving the "Dina Mabasa Bali" program as part of a policy that strengthens the habit of using the Balinese language. Through these steps, it is hoped that the existence of the Balinese language as the mother tongue of the Balinese people can be maintained and strengthened.

The analysis revealed that the students' reading comprehension ability falls under the category of "less proficient," with an average score of 65. Despite the minimum passing grade (KKM) being set at 72, only 9 students (22.5%) were able to achieve it, while the remaining 31 students (77.5%) scored below the KKM. The main difficulties encountered by students in reading Balinese discourse include understanding vocabulary, language structure, and lack of interest in reading. Therefore, the majority of students are considered not proficient in reading Balinese discourse.
