Development of competencies for new graduates in small ruminant practice by utilizing a survey of current practitioners
Authors: Gibbons P. M. , Pesato M. E.
Published: July 2023

There are no standardized clinical competencies for new gradu­ates interested in small ruminant herd health, medicine and surgery. This void is obvious as other professional veterinary associations publish competency guidelines for new graduates. Small ruminants are becoming increasingly popular with the development of niche markets, low startup cost and increased interest in livestock production for home consumption by own­ers in suburban areas, which leads to more mixed and small animal practitioners being tasked with seeing small ruminants. A survey was sent to small ruminant practitioners in North America to gauge the type of small ruminants seen by the prac­tice, procedures performed on small ruminants, and small ruminant disease prevalence in the practice. Results from this survey will be used to establish clinical competencies for new graduates interested in small ruminant practice.

Metal Antik conservation coatings on iron specimens
Authors: Košťúr R. , Kreislová K. , Zemanová M.
Published: July 2023

The surface treatment of historical iron artefacts involves application of right conservation coating to the material to prevent further corrosion deterioration. Among common conservation agent of iron belong tannate coating, which is considerably preferred with the desired black appearance of the surface. In this work the new potentional conservation agent Metal Antik was studied. The change of this possible surface treatment was evaluated over time. The comparison between long-term exposed samples (15 years), short-term exposed samples (1.5 year) and fresh cured samples was done by spectrocolorimetry measurement. This was also compared to standard samples prepared with tannate coating. Surface analysis for all types of samples was done by μ-Raman spectroscopy. Results proved that effect of time changes the surface of coatings. It was demonstrated by colour change of surface and by formation of areas with local corrosion. Another study of Metal Antik in order to improve corrosion resistance is open.
Influence of Aggregate Shape and Exciton Location on Polarization Energy of Benzene and Anthracene Aggregates
Authors: Testoff Thomas , Wang Lichang
Published: July 2023

To investigate the aggregate shape and exciton location on the polarization energies of benzene and anthracene aggregates, we performed calculations on the clusters in increasing size and differing shape. The results showed that the anthracene cluster showed no apparent difference in the shape dependence, however, benzene clusters differed significantly due to its nearest neighbors orient in a T-shape conformation compared to anthracene which is more stacked along its conjugated rings. Additionally, lower total energies of the ‘full’ model as well as less stable neutral energies for the surface molecules in the ‘intra+inter’ model suggest that the surface molecules interact repulsively. Due to the fact that the cube structure has a larger surface area to volume ratio and more benzene molecules are needed to take up said surface area more repulsive force may be experienced by molecules in the benzene cubes. Apparent polarization energy of each system increases as number of close by neighbors increases. Therefore molecules located centrally have larger induced dipole polarization as well as larger apparent polarization. Apparent polarization energy depends more sensitively on the location of the excitation than the shape of the cluster. Furthermore, the orientation of the nearest neighbors in each direction plays a large role in magnitude of the electrostatic interactions as well as the induced dipole effects.
Recognition and Enforcement of Annulled Arbitral Awards Under the New York Convention 1958
Authors: Zaheeruddin Mohammed
Published: July 2023

Purpose: The arbitral awards are enforceable internationally under the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, 1958. The Convention provides the discretion to the courts in enforcing State either to enforce or reject the international arbitral awards. The award set aside at the seat of arbitration is not enforceable, however the courts in some jurisdictions enforced such awards. In this context the paper examines how the courts in different jurisdictions justified while enforcing the annulled awards.
 
Theoretical framework: Arbitration mechanism is frequently used for settlement of international commercial disputes. It enables party autonomy in drafting arbitration agreements, choosing the applicable law and determining the arbitration seat. According to Article V (1)(e) of the New York Convention the national courts may refuse to recognize or enforce the foreign award if it was set aside or annulled at the seat of arbitration or under law of which such award was given.  In some jurisdictions the enforcing courts considered the annulment procedure followed by the courts and if such procedure was unfair, the courts in enforcing country have agreed to enforce the set aside awards.
 
Design/methodology/approach: The author followed the legal analysis method to examine the approach of the courts from different jurisdictions that have enforced the annulled foreign arbitral awards and the legal comparative method observed to study the judicial decisions from various jurisdictions.
 
Findings: The study concludes that Article V (1) of the New York Convention gives discretionary power to the enforcing courts regarding enforcement of foreign arbitral award. Hence, the courts in some jurisdictions enforced the annulled award if the set aside procedure was unfair, based on local grounds, biased, violated basic norms of justice, against the parties’ agreement or applied domestic law instead of the New York Convention. To secure the enforcement of award, the parties to the arbitration may agree that the arbitral award is not subject to challenge in any court at the arbitration seat or in the state in which the award is enforced and prefer a pro-arbitration State as a seat of arbitration.
 
Research, Practical & Social implications: The study provides practical guidance to the arbitrating parties in drafting arbitration agreements to ensure the enforcement of an arbitration award internationally.
 
Originality/value: The research on enforcement of annulled award under the New York Convention immensely helpful in guiding the arbitration parties in drafting the arbitration agreement, choosing arbitration procedure and seat of arbitration.

Collagen-nanoclay hydrogels for stiffness enhancement of the extracellular matrix: the effect on spheroid growth
Authors: Alamán Pilar
Published: July 2023

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is crucial for regulating cellular functions and maintaining tissue integrity. Alterations in ECM stiffness are associated with various pathological conditions, including cancer and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, being able to tailor and customize ECM stiffness could revolutionize personalized research and therapies in tissue engineering. Clay nanomaterials are an emerging class of biomaterials with unique properties that make them promising candidates for biomedical applications.

In this study, we investigated the potential of laponite nanoclays (LapNC) to enhance the mechanical properties of collagen hydrogels without increasing the collagen amount. Collagen hydrogels of different concentrations (2.5, 4, and 6 mg/ml) were supplemented with LapNC, and the resulting hydrogels were thoroughly characterized using rheology, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and other assays to quantify additional physical parameters, such as the permeability and swelling potential. In this study, we investigated the potential application of the customized hydrogels as 3D cancer culture systems for tumor spheroid growth. To this end, we quantified the spheroid area over time by culturing three cancer cell lines in the supplemented and non-supplemented matrices. Moreover, we assessed the migration capacity of the spheroids with respect to the initial cluster formation.

Our results confirmed that LapNC solution could be successfully incorporated into the culture media without clay aggregation. The supplemented hydrogels exhibited enhanced mechanical properties without compromising cellular viability or causing collagen collapse. Regardless of the collagen concentration, LapNC-supplemented hydrogels showed higher storage moduli and lower permeability than control hydrogels, which was qualitatively corroborated by SEM visualization of the porosity. Furthermore, the addition of LapNC resulted in the formation of larger spheroids at every collagen concentration. These findings have significant implications for tissue engineering applications, particularly in cancer spheroid analysis.

The successful incorporation of LapNC into collagen hydrogels as nanofillers to modify the rheological and structural properties highlights their potential for tissue engineering applications. Our results demonstrate that the mechanical properties of collagen hydrogels can be enhanced by the addition of LapNC without increasing collagen density. This may provide a powerful method for personalized research and therapies in multiple fields of tissue engineering. In particular, our study suggests that LapNC-supplemented hydrogels can serve as 3D cancer culture systems for stiffness-dependent tumor spheroid growth, opening up new avenues for cancer research and therapy.

Authors: Busubul Syeha Nafisah , Rahman Shukran Abdul
Published: July 2023

A cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate the relationship between internet addiction and sleep quality among Human Sciences undergraduates during the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia. A group of 36 male (M=36) and 132 female (F=132) undergraduates, age ranged between 17-29 participated in the study. The Internet Addiction Test (IAT) was used to measure the level of internet addiction while the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to measure sleep quality. Using Spearman’s rho Correlation Coefficient to analyse the relationship, the study found a statistically significant positive correlation between internet addiction and sleep quality (rs(166)=.190, p=.007). This indicated that higher level of internet addiction was associated with progressively worse sleep quality. The findings could be useful for psychologists, educational counselors, government, researchers, and students in designing interventions to help students using the internet without the risk of addiction and improve their quality of sleep. Implications, limitations of the study, and suggestions for future research were discussed.

МІСЦЕ ФАЛЬШИВИХ ДЕНАРІЇВ У ГОСПОДАРСТВІ НАСЕЛЕННЯ СЕРЕДНЬОГО ПОДНІСТРОВ‟Я ІІ–V СТ. Н. Е.
Authors: Zadorozhnyuk Andriy
Published: July 2023

Мета статті полягає у трактуванні масових знахідок литих денаріїв на теренах Середнього Подністров’я, які були оприлюднені на різних інтернет форумах, внаслідок активного використання приладів металопошуку. Робиться спроба вивчення та з’ясування місця фальшивих денаріїв у господарстві варварських племен, акцентується увагу на проблемі економічної доцільності організації монетного виробництва на теренах згаданого регіону.

В період пізнього Риму на кордонах неосяжної імперії стали формуватися прикордонні контактні зони. Територія Середньої течії річки Дністер (сучасне Поділля) стала однією з таких зон, що означено значною кількістю зафіксованих пам’яток черняхівської культури. Регіон між Смотричем та іншими лівими притоками середньої течії Дністра і верхів’я Південного Бугу вважають вогнищем процесу формування черняхівської культури. Дослідження останніх років виявили нові пам’ятки пізньоримського часу і навіть місця ливарного виробництва монет та фібул того періоду. Зафіксовані численні знахідки фальшивих денаріїв місцевого виробництва, що ставить на порядок денний питання про доцільність їх виготовлення і місце цих монет у господарстві населення регіону.

Поширення фальшивої монети засвідчує масовий і добре організований грошовий обіг у місцевому середовищі. Жоден із монетних періодів не знає такої кількості фальшивих монет у грошовому обігу. До того ж, більшість таких денаріїв досить майстерно виконані і несуть сліди тривалого використання. Отже, значна кількість фальшивих монет – це вияв їх певного місця в господарському житті та певних потребах ринку.

Основні результати дослідження. Аналіз масових знахідок фальшивих денаріїїв, окремі з яких виявлені на місцях їх ливарного виробництва, слід розглядати в контексті поширення «римської моди» та масового використання фібул, каблучок і пряжок римського типу у місцевому середовищі. Вважаємо, що лімесні денарії доповнюють розуміння поліетнічності черняхівської культури, оскільки упродовж кількох століть вони забезпечували господарсько-економічні потреби внутрішньої торгівлі готської військової верхівки із землеробським виробником сільськогосподарської продукції.

Introduction

Although work is a significant source of meaning for most people, the role of senior executive generates different meaning and well-being complexities than those experienced or faced by general employees. This study explored how meaning and anti-meaning components affect senior executives’ experiences of meaning in life and well-being. The findings enabled devising a pathway to enhance senior executives’ net experiences of meaning in life and well-being.

Methods

A cross-sectional, semi-structured interview study design was used to gather rich qualitative data. Eight participants from southern and eastern Africa, who had held the position of chief executive officer or managing director for at least five years, were interviewed.

Results

The findings demonstrated that senior executives’ work roles provide a significant source of meaning. However, the roles are accompanied by unavoidable anti-meanings, which are likely to generate additional anti-meanings if not tempered sufficiently, thus reducing the net meaning experienced.

Discussion

From the findings, a practical pathway was devised to assist top executives to deal with the bipolar relationship between meaning and anti-meaning. Consulting and counseling practitioners can utilize the pathway to guide, support, and counsel senior executives towards improved meaning, temper anti-meaning and improve well-being.

Lung cancer is an epithelial cell mutation caused by carcinogens and is influenced by genetic factors. Complaints that often appear are cough, hemoptysis, dyspnea, hoarseness, superior vena cava syndrome, pleural effusion, pancoast tumor and chest pain. Pain management is needed by lung cancer patients both pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. One of the non-pharmacological pain management is music therapy. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of music therapy on lung cancer patients with chronic pain. The research design used was quasi-experimental with non-equivalent pretest-posttest with control group, consecutive sampling was used as the sample. The number of samples was 36 people (18 control group and 18 intervention group). Pain was measured by a numerical rating scale. The statistical test used a two-mean difference test. The results showed that there was a significant effect of music therapy on lung cancer patients with chronic pain (p value = 0.000; = 0.05). The results of this study recommend music therapy as an independent nursing intervention to reduce chronic pain in lung cancer patients.

Objective: Proximal femur fractures are quite common and dangerous in elderly patients because of high mortality rates post-surgery. This has been a major problem globally and its mechanism remains uncertain. The present study has been conducted to evaluate the predictive factors of mortality in elderly patients of age 60 years or more with proximal femur fracture undergoing surgical management. Method: The present study is an observational retrospective study with a follow up of 1 year. A total of 50 patients were included after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All the patients were operated by the same orthopaedics surgeon and under uniform conditions. Results: The overall mortality rate was 34% at 1 year follow-up. There was no statistical difference between male and female patients but there was a 3 fold increase in mortality rates in patients of age more than 80 as compared to patients between 60-80 years. Similarly, statistical difference was observed in patients who were operated within 72 hours of admission to the hospital than those operated after 72 hours of admission. Likewise, a 3 fold increase in mortality was observed in patients with more than 2 comorbidities as compared to patients with less than 2 comorbidities. Conclusion: Patients older than 80 years with reduced post-operative mobility score and having more than 2 comorbidities have a statistically signicant higher mortality rate following surgical management of proximal femur fracture.

Context: Sound knowledge of routine pediatric abdominal masses and clinical and radiographical features assists us to infer a differential diagnosis and formulate guidelines for their further management. This study aims t Aim: o analyze the accuracy of Ultrasound in the evaluation of pediatric abdominal masses on the basis of their anatomical site, morphology, extent, and internal vascularity, and also to assess their relation with vital structures. This is a cross-sectional observational single-center s Setting and design: tudy design. Consecutive pediatric (upto 12years) patients with suspected abdominal masses were evaluated, and those found to have a space-occupying abdominal mass on ultrasound were included in the study. Their Ultrasound diagnoses and nal histopathological resul Methods and material: ts were collated, to assess how accurate the initial Ultrasound diagnoses were. Sensitivity, specicity, positive and negative predictive value, and accuracy of ultrasound in diagnosing various abdominal masses were calculated. 68 patients with abdominal ma Results: sses were included, of which 43 were intraperitoneal. Out of 68 patients, the histopathological results of 62 patients were available. Overall, there was a good correlation between the ultrasound diagnoses and histopathological results in 50/62 patients. In our study, ultrasound was able to diagnose duplication, hydatid, and choledochal cysts, hemangioendotheliomas and pancreatic pseudocysts with 100% accuracy, sensitivity, and specicity. With its non-invasiveness, Conclusions: wide availability, and ease of use without the risks associated with ionizing radiation exposure, ultrasound is an excellent imaging modality for the initial evaluation of a suspected pediatric abdominal mass. When a mass is present, the ultrasound features and clinical presentation of the patient can lead to a focused differential diagnosis in most cases. In a few cases, optimal ultrasound examination may even facilitate a denite diagnosis without the need for additional imaging studies.

Plasma procalcitonin (PCT) is a highly specic marker for the diagnosis of bacterial infection and sepsis. Studies have demonstrated its role in the setting of sepsis and acute pancreatitis. This study aims to analyze and compare the prognostic efcacy of serum procalcitonin level in acute pancreatitis. A prospective observational study was conducted in the department of general surgery of Kempegowda Institute of medical Sciences and Research Centre from March 2021 to August 2022.Plasma procalcitonin was estimated. The study included a total of 51 patients diagnosed to have acute pancreatitis. Data was collected and statistically analyzed using SPSS version 17. All patients were males with a mean age of 42.29 years (range, 18-62 years) and all had ethanol-induced pancreatitis. Plasma PCT values were found to correlate better than Ranson's scoring system with the total duration of hospitalization, ITU, and ICU stay, as well as with the progression to severe acute pancreatitis. A cut off for plasma PCT of >0.5 ng/mL was found to be 100 % sensitive and 100 % specic and a cut off for Ranson's score was 3 out of 11 with 94 % sensitive and 92 % specic for predicting the progression to severe acute pancreatitis. Plasma PCT also correlated well with number of days of hospitalization when compared to Ranson's scores. Plasma procalcitonin is an early and reliable prognostic indicator in acute pancreatitis.
