Published: May 2024

Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a chronic inammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity
caused by bacteria and other microorganisms. It presents with hearing disability, and ear discharge
through the tympanic membrane perforation. The disease is more common in developing countries due to poor socio-economic
conditions, poor hygiene, poor nutrition, lack of education, and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, and lack of follow-up has led
to the development of resistance strains. If left untreated leads to intra and extra-cranial complications. The present Objective:-
study is undertaken to determine the causative bacteria and their antibiotic susceptibility pattern. We Material and methods:-
studied 100 clinically suspected CSOM cases from January 2023 to August 2023 in the Microbiology and Otorhinolaryngology
department of Basaweshwar Teaching and General Hospital Kalaburagi. Ear discharge was collected with a sterile swab
under aseptic precaution from the external auditory canal (EAC) and the organism was grown on blood agar. The identication
of organism and antibiotic susceptibility patterns was done by vitek2 compact automation. A total o Result: f 100 cases were

In the wake of COVID 19 pandemic, it is important to understand the disruption caused in the society and
education is one of the major areas of concern. It is a pathetic state that “more than 157 crore students
across 191 countries are affected badly and in India more than 32 crores students are affected dueto the closureof educational
institutions due to COVID 19 pandemic”, (UNESCO report, 2020). Moreover, students belonging to the unprivileged sections of
society are at a greater loss. The challenges posed by the present situation encourages educational institutions to adopt techmediated online classes. This study focuses on digital education and digital divide with case studies in India. This study
provides a platform in understanding and tackling digital divide existing as a barrier among thosenot privileged to make use of
the opportunity. The study concludes that technology is allowing digital based learning to proliferate during the COVID 19
lockdown but still far away from the majority of unprivileged people.

Authors: Anvar Hussain Javed , V Unnikrishnan
Published: May 2024

Fat embolism occurs when bony or soft tissue trauma has caused fat to enter the circulation, or in
atraumatic disorders where circulating fat particles have coalesced abnormally within the circulation.
The fat particles deposit in the pulmonary and systemic circulations, although only 1 - 2% develop a clinical disorder with
1
respiratory, cerebral and dermal manifestations known as the fat embolism syndrome . Management of FES requires early
2
immobilization of fracture, symptomatic management of respiratory, cardiovascular, and neurological abnormalities . Here we
discuss about a 32 year old male with marfanoid like features who came with alleged history of road trafc accident, diagnosed
with both bone fracture right leg and comminuted inter trochanteric fracture left hip. Patient underwent PFNA2 xation of left hip
and post operatively developed decreased response, desaturation and low urine output. This case discusses the increased

Published: May 2024

Cor triatriatum dexter is a rare congenital heart anomaly in which a membrane divides the right atrium
into 2 chambers. It exists either in isolated classical form or may be associated with simple to complex
congenital cardiac anomalies. We report the case of a 35-year-old female who had cor triatriatum dexter, partial anomalous
pulmonary venous connection and a large atrial septal defect. In patients with concomitant heart anomalies, open-heart surgery
remains the gold standard in the treatment of cor triatriatum dexter.

Authors: Maharana Sunil Kumar , Roy (Adak) Shiuli , Dolui Rupesh Kumar , Bandyopadhyay Kausik
Published: May 2024

Introduction: Quality control is an integral part of any clinical laboratory, which requires constant
maintenance to deliver robust, reliable reports. Bilirubin in control material is an extremely
photosensitive and unstable material; thus, we aimed to prepare endogenous bilirubin control material from pooled human
serum and benchmark its stability against commercially available control materials at a xed temperature range of 2°-8°C.
Material & Methods: Endogenous bilirubin control material was prepared from the pooling of residual serum samples, where
each total bilirubin level (Diazo method) was in the ≥3.0 mg/dl to ≤10.0 mg/dl range. Samples that were positive for HIV I/II,
HbsAg, anti- HCV, Haemolyzed, Lipemic, SGOT, and SGPT >250U/L, Insufcient samples (<100 µL) were excluded. The
baseline mean was established. Remnant serum was separated equally into a falcon tube and an amber vial shielded with
aluminium zip-lock pouch, containing a silica gel packet enclosure. (A/AL). Commercial controls were reconstituted, and
baseline means were settled. All control sets were stored at 2-8°C properly. Total bilirubin was measured daily from each
control set for thirty days. A comparison of means, standard deviation, and CV% was done with ANOVA and post hoc Tukey
HSD; a p value (< 0.05) was considered statistically signicant. Results: Established baseline mean, nal mean ±standard
deviation (mg/dl), and CV% for total. bilirubin (mg/dl) from Falcon tube (8.0, 3.88±1.94,3.79), A/AL (8.0, 7.32±0.51,0.26), ERBA
PATH (4.55, 3.21±1.10,1.22), RANDOX LEVEL 3 (5.43, 3.54±1.66,2.77), and TERSACO (4.64, 2.98±1.47,2.16) were observed,
respectively. Statistically signicant differences were recorded from the baseline means on the contrary to the nal means of
Falcon Tube, ERBA PATH, RANDOX LEVEL 3, and TERSACO (p <0.001), but there was no statistical difference between the
baseline mean and nal mean of A/AL (p 0.226). Conclusion: Our study concludes that endogenous bilirubin control material
prepared from pooled human sera showed effective stability for thirty days at 2°-8°C when kept in an amber vial shielded within
aluminium zip-lock enclosing a silica gel packet and can be used as in-house bilirubin control material. However, rapid
deterioration was observed when stored in a falcon tube. Other commercial quality control materials showed acceptable
analytical performance for 12-14 days.

Improving Text Generation for Product Description via Human Behaviour
Authors: Guo Tong
Published: May 2024

Text generation is an important method to generate high quality and
available product description from product title. For the product
description generation for online E-commerce application, the main
problem is how to improve the quality of generated text for App sales.
In other words, how we judge the quality of text. If all texts are
already positive and available, then we find it impossible to manually
judge which text is the better text for a product. So if we cannot judge
which is a better text manually, we cannot improve the quality of
generated text. In E-commerce, product description is to attract
shoppers and improve sales. So we design a method to improve the quality
of generated text based on user buying behaviour. Online result shows
that our approach improve the sales of products by improving the text
quality.

Visualizing Complexity and Emergence: Insights from the Hippocampus Representation Model
Authors: Montgomery Richard Murdoch
Published: May 2024

This article explores the intricate dynamics of complexity and emergence through the lens of a graphical model representing hippocampal functions. Utilizing a series of overlapping curves that intersect at varying degrees and frequencies, we create a visual metaphor for the sophisticated processes to store information observed in the hippocampus. This model not only depicts the spatial and frequency-related interactions of these curves but also illustrates the emergent patterns that arise from these interactions. These patterns exemplify the principles of complexity and emergence, where the collective behavior of simple elements results in intricate and unexpected outcomes. This graphical representation serves as a bridge between the abstract mathematical concepts of complexity theory and the tangible biological processes observed in neuroscience. By drawing parallels to the hippocampus, known for its role in memory formation and spatial navigation, the article sheds light on how complex systems, such as neural networks, exhibit properties that are more than just the sum of their parts. The model thus offers a unique perspective on understanding complex systems, not only in neuroscience but in broader scientific inquiries where complexity and emergent phenomena are pivotal.
A 42.3 μm² Band to Band Tunneling-based Thermillator Enabled Temperature to Digital Converter with Resolution FoM of 0.16 pJK² for Embedded Temperature Sensing
Authors: Kadam Abhishek A.
Published: May 2024

In advanced high-speed integrated systems, the widely distributed and proliferation of temperature sensors to detect hotspots improve the robustness and reliability of the system by preventing overheating. Low area and low energy consumption are essential for integrated temperature sensors in such applications. The band-to-band tunneling (BTBT) current in PDSOI technology increases linearly with temperature. We demonstrate a BTBT-based quasi-linear temperature-dependent oscillator, thermillator. The fabricated thermillator has a low footprint (42.3 μm2, 10× less than state-of-the-art temperature sensing cores) and enables low energy consuming temperature to digital converter (0.33 nJ energy/conversion) in GF45RFSOI technology. The proposed thermillator facilitates a low power and low footprint temperature sensor (0 oC to 85 oC) with a simple counter-based digital readout with a best-in-class resolution FoM of 0.16 pJK2.

O presente trabalho de conclusão de curso pretende revisar o processo pedagógico voltado ao ensino da matemática no Ensino Fundamental I, de nove anos, mediada por pedagogos.
Julgamos que o domínio e o conhecimento da matemática faz-se necessário durante toda a educação básica e ao decorrer da vida. Em situações simples do cotidiano, legitimamos a importância desta ciência na nossa rotina, do cálculo de um desconto até o valor de um troco.
Porém, os discentes ainda que reconheçam que a matemática é primordial, mantêm uma insatisfação generalizada diante da disciplina. As dificuldades apresentadas estão relacionadas a fatores emocionais, oriundos do processo pedagógico mal direcionado. (MENDES e CARMO, 2014)

Published: May 2024

Rhizoctonia root rot of eggplant, caused by Rhizoctonia solani, is an economically important disease. Niallia circulans YRNF1 and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) were assessed for their biocontrol and biofertilizing effects against R. solani, as potential replacements for synthetic fungicides and fertilizers. The diazotrophic N. circulans YRNF1, isolated from soil, reduced in vitro growth of R. solani by 42%. GC-MS analysis of culture filtrate of N. circulans YRNF1 detected bioactive compounds, including butyric acid (85%) and ethylene glycol (8%). In greenhouse experiments, combined application of N. circulans YRNF1 and AMF reduced the severity of eggplant root rot by 26%. This combined treatment triggered the transcriptional expression of five resistance genes (JERF3, PAL1, C3H, CHI2, and HQT) in the treated eggplants. Biochemical analyses of the infected eggplant roots treated with the combined bio-inoculants showed enhancement of the phenol content (+188%), and increased antioxidant enzyme activity, mainly of POD (+104%) and PPO (+72%). Combined application of N. circulans YRNF1 and AMF also promoted eggplant growth and improved the total NPK concentrations in treated plant leaves. Inoculation of eggplant with N. circulans YRNF1 in the presence of AMR increased the mycorrhization level. This is the first report of N. circulans and AMF as potential agents for biological control of Rhizoctonia root rot and growth promotion of eggplant.
Phytosanitary problems in elephant garlic (Allium ampeloprasum var. holmense) in the “Val di Chiana” area (Central Italy), and evaluation of potential control strategies

Published: May 2024

Allium ampeloprasum var. holmense (elephant garlic) is traditionally cultivated in “Val di Chiana”, an area between Umbria and Tuscany regions of Central Italy, under the name “Aglione della Valdichiana”. This product has recently increased in importance, becoming a key economic resource for local farmers. In 2019, phytosanitary problems of elephant garlic cloves ready for transplanting emerged in this cultivation area. Symptom/sign observations and fungal isolations were performed for cloves divided into four components (tunic, basal plate, reserve tissue and shoot) from six farms in the “Val di Chiana” area. Isolates obtained were identified, using partial β-tubulin (BenA) and calmodulin (CaM) or translation elongation factor 1α (tef1α) genes sequences, as belonging to Penicillium [P. allii (95%), P. citrinum (4%), P. brevicompactum (1%)] or Fusarium [F. oxysporum (81%), F. proliferatum (19%)]. Fusarium spp. were mainly associated with clove tunics and basal plates, while Penicillium spp. with basal plates, reserve tissues and shoots. Fungi often also developed from asymptomatic components, but a correlation was found between isolated pathogens and disease symptoms. Pathogenicity and virulence towards elephant garlic cloves were verified for a representative isolate of each identified species, and Penicillium allii was the most virulent. Strategies to control Fusarium and Penicillium spp. on cloves were assessed, including chemicals, a biocontrol agent, surface sterilization and heat treatment. Among these, treatments with Patriot Gold® (active ingredient [a.i.] Trichoderma asperellum TV1, approved in organic farming on crops similar to elephant garlic), or Signum® (a.i. boscalid + pyraclostrobin, approved for Integrated Pest Management systems on crops similar to elephant garlic), were effective in simultaneous reduction of Penicillium spp. and Fusarium spp. Transplanting of asymptomatic cloves combined with the use of the above treatments showed promising effects for pathogens control, and to assist elephant garlic crop establishment.

Published: May 2024

Dieback of fruiting spurs, stems and branches of walnut trees (Juglans regia L.), caused by Botryosphaeriaceae, is widespread in walnut orchards in Australia. Five species of Botryosphaeriaceae (Diplodia seriata, Dothiorella omnivora, Neofusicoccum macroclavatum, N. parvum, and Spencermartinsia viticola) were recovered from the Australian walnut orchards in a previous study, with D. seriata and N. parvum being the most prevalent. The present study evaluated inhibitory effects of ten fungicides on mycelium growth of those five species and on conidium germination of D. seriata and N. parvum. It investigated the preventative and curative efficacy of selected fungicides on disease incidence in glasshouse and field trials. In vitro experiments showed that nine of the fungicides reduced mycelium growth, and all ten inhibited conidium germination, but to varying extents. Tebuconazole, prochloraz manganese chloride, fluazinam, fludioxonil and pyraclostrobin were the most effective for inhibiting mycelium growth (EC50 < 0.14 µg a.i. mL-1), whereas pyraclostrobin, fluxapyroxad, fluopyram, penthiopyrad and tebuconazole were the most effective for inhibiting conidium germination (EC50 < 2.2 µg a.i. mL-1). In planta experiments with five fungicides confirmed that preventative treatments had greater efficacy than curative treatments. A field trial with four commercial fungicide formulations demonstrated that tebuconazole and tebuconazole + fluopyram provided protection of walnut trees for the longest period. The field trial also confirmed the efficacy of pyraclostrobin and the inhibitory effect of fluazinam. This study is the first in Australia to evaluate fungicides in different classes and with different modes of action for efficacy against Botryosphaeriaceae recovered from walnut orchards in Australia, and provides a wider selection of active ingredients for a fungicide rotation programme than that which is currently available to the Australian walnut industry.

This study reviews the Illinois Department of Transportation’s full-depth asphalt, limiting strain criterion, and asphalt over rubblized concrete design procedures, considering technological advancements in hot-mix asphalt—namely, the increased use of recycled materials and modified asphalt binders. The researchers evaluated the current |E*| algorithm by conducting laboratory tests with four mix designs and seven asphalt binders of different Superpave performance grades. They compared predictive models, including the current Illinois modulus algorithm as well as the Witczak, Hirsch, and newly developed Illinois Center for Transportation (ICT) Bayesian neural network (BNN) models. The ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) nondestructive test for modulus and field modulus measurements was evaluated as well. Subsequent tasks involved reviewing current fatigue endurance limit (FEL) criteria from an adapted protocol for the four-point bending beam fatigue test. This study found that typical hot-mix asphalt modulus values in Illinois are underestimated compared to modern mixes, suggesting potential savings by allowing an increased modulus value to be used, reducing layer thickness design. Low-temperature performance grades significantly influenced modulus, and the developed ICT BNN predictive model outperformed traditional ones. While UPV was promising for modulus screening, challenges related to material properties assumptions were identified. The current stage of research on assessing modern mixes’ FEL reveals the complexity of observing FEL using simplified methods. To advance this objective, a concept of acceptable stiffness ratio (SR) is introduced. In these cases, exceptionally long fatigue life would be obtained for mixes that demonstrate an acceptable drop in SR within 10,000 cycles, with no apparent evolution of the damage state. The most conservative estimation of strain level that would result in acceptable SR aligned with IDOT’s current 70 microstrain FEL criteria. On the less conservative side, allowing a 10% drop in SR within 10,000 loading cycles could increase the acceptable SR < 1 strain level as high as approximately 180 microstrain, with caution needed regarding evolving mobility trends and environmental stressors including the changing climate.

Este estudo tem como objetivo realizar uma análise epidemiológica de casos de toxoplasmose congênita na região Nordeste do Brasil, no período de 2019 a 2023. Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo e descritivo, utilizando a plataforma do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (Datasus) com base nos parâmetros de: ano de notificação, sexo e raça. Os resultados obtidos do artigo indicam que 4391 casos de toxoplasmose congênita foram registados no Nordeste brasileiro no recorte temporal do estudo, sendo destacado o Estado do Ceará por possuir o maior número de pessoas acometidas pela doença, registrando 821 casos de toxoplasmose congênita. Com as informações deste trabalho foi possível concluir que a toxoplasmose congênita ainda é uma doença mal controlada no Nordeste, principalmente para a população parda, independentemente do sexo masculino ou feminino. Assim, sendo necessário o surgimento de ações dos órgãos da saúde para combater a enfermidade e fatores que possam levar a essa patologia, como: fragilidade econômica da macrorregião e subnotificação de grávidas com suspeita de toxoplasmose no Nordeste.

O câncer do colo do útero é o quarto câncer mais comum em mulheres no mundo, embora exista um programa nacional de exames para ele no sistema único de saúde, aderir ao exame nunca foi o ideal. Essa doença representa um grande problema de saúde pública, pois a alta taxa de mortalidade atual no Brasil se deve ao diagnóstico tardio da doença. Enfatiza através da literatura nacional os fatores mais importantes que levam as mulheres de 25 a 64 anos não realizarem o rastreamento preventivo do câncer de colo do útero conforme preconizado pela Secretaria de Saúde. O trabalho de pesquisa foi um estudo bibliográfico descritivo de natureza qualitativa e básica, analisando 10 artigos. Os artigos foram analisados ​​criticamente e identificados como fatores que levam as mulheres a não participarem do rastreamento do câncer de colo do útero, resultando em duas categorias de discussão: fatores relacionados à não adesão ao exame, acesso e características individuais mulheres que reduzem o comprometimento com o exame. Descobrimos que o mais importante fator que levam as mulheres a serem reprovadas no exame estão relacionados a sentimentos de medo e vergonha, desconforto, crenças, cultura, falta de tempo devido ao horário de trabalho, condições socioeconômicas, baixa escolaridade e falta de serviços.
