Vulnerability Study by DRASTIC Method for Eocene and Turonian Aquifers in the Tadla Plain
Authors: Zerouali Essaid , Wafik Amina , Najine Abdessamad , Radouani Fadwa , Chlahbi Safa
Published: November 2023

In numerous regions across Morocco, groundwater quality has undergone a significant decline in recent years, primarily due to factors such as agricultural expansion, improper solid waste disposal, and industrialization. This study presents an analysis of the vulnerability of two primary shallow aquifers, namely the Turonian and Eocene. The vulnerability assessment entails the evaluation of the aquifers' susceptibility to various forms of surface pollution, based on the physical characteristics of their surroundings. Within the Moroccan context, the DRASTIC method, integrated with Geographic Information Systems (GIS), emerges as the most suitable approach. This method involves the processing and analysis of seven factors pertaining to the three soil compartments, encompassing land cover, the unsaturated zone, and the saturated zone. Each chosen parameter is assigned a weight, reflecting its significance concerning groundwater protection. Notably, the water table's depth and the nature of the vadose zone exert the most substantial influence, followed by factors like recharge. Conversely, topography exhibits minimal impact, with soil type following suit. Lastly, the nature of the aquifer medium and its conductivity carry a moderate degree of influence. Each parameter is further categorized into classes, each defined by a specific rating. To derive an all-encompassing measure of vulnerability, the weights and scores of these various factors are synthesized through an additive model, yielding the comprehensive "DRASTIC Index." Subsequently, this index is employed to assess the intrinsic vulnerability level of the Turonian and Eocene aquifers by superimposing the seven index maps.

Published: November 2023

Background: Mastocytosis is a heterogenous disorder characterized by accumulation of mast cells in different tissues. Mastocytosis may be limited to skin or it may involve bone marrow, liver, spleen and lymphatic tissue as systemic mastocytosis. Patients may also present with anaphylaxis. Here we report a six-year-old boy with atopic dermatitis, wheat anaphylaxis, and solitary mastocytoma. Case report: The dermatologic manifestations of atopic dermatitis appeared early in his first days of life and were all over his face with a dark red infiltrate, edema, small vesicles and severe itching. At the age of 3 months, the patient was fed with an ordinary milk formula for the first time, which immediately resulted in severe vomiting, generalized urticaria and angioedema of the lips and eyes, followed by lethargy and atony. The result of RAST test indicated allergy to wheat and cow’s milk. At the age of two years, his mother noticed a rubber-like skin lesion on his left arm with positive Darier sign. Laboratory tests were all within normal limits except IgE and serum tryptase which were 1425 IU/mL and 31 ng/ml, respectively. Conclusion: To conclude, Anaphylaxis may accompany cutaneous forms of mastocytosis even mastocytoma. Delayed diagnosis due to the lack of awareness may lead to recurrent life-threatening events, particularly in infancy when anaphylactic reactions are easily misdiagnosed as infants are not capable of expressing their symptoms.

Introduction: The corona virus disease stays the greatest pandemy never observed around the world with the highest lethality rate. Butembo city has known, there are some months, the second great epidemy of Ebola in the world. This study aims at evaluating the preventive measures held by banks and financial cooperatives to protect their staffs and customers against COVID. Methodology: The qualitative data have been collected thanks to a grill of interview but also by a direct observation on the exterior and interior of buildings. The analysis was done thanks to epiinfo 3. 5.4 software. The related risk was calculated to appreciate the liaison between victims of confirmed cases and the non-respect of barrier measures. Result: the gender is not respected in banking institutions, sex ratio man/woman of 7/3. The prevalence of COVID-19 was 10.7%. A high risk was observed with the absence of points of hand washing (R = 3.3), the wearing of facultative mask in the interior (RR = 4), the non-respected physical distance (RR =14), the lack of limit of entries (RR = 2.4), lack of a trained agent in PCI (RR = 9.5). Conclusion: the barrier measures are not completely respected the retort against epidemies should consider the banks, like other public areas, among the sites on which one should react to cut the chain of transmission.
Life On Earth as a Product of Biological Interaction? An Inquiry
Authors: Iwuh* Dozie
Published: November 2023

By definition, a cell is the smallest unit of biological life. This means that every living thing can be fundamentally narrowed down to a composition of cells working together for the furtherance of that being in existence. With the dawn dawn of the evolutionary theory that bespeaks of life commencing some ~3.8 billion years ago with RNA (Ribonuclei acid) strands that underwent evolution to become DNA (Deoxyribonuclei acid), which led to what we have now as life in the world, or with the Panspermia hypothesis, assuming that life on Earth was seeded from space, what is being considered in this work pertains to the origin of life. In addition to the plethora of intuitive stances that concern the origin story of life, this work will only add to these. The major hypothesis in this work is that the continuity of life, as pertaining to its procession from parent to offspring provides fundamental links to the origin of life and this is the major consideration that will be given. It is thus apparent that the cells that would be considered are germ cells and not somatic cells. A cursory look at the continuity of life, should give us clues as regards how life originated. We nonetheless, take into consideration the fact that some features due to its non-use have gone extinct, thus taking with them the needed knowledge to breaking even as regards our inquiry. Even at that, we propose that conjectures, hypothetically, can be made based on the physical evidence that is available to us today.
Review on Pest Des Petits Ruminants Virus and its Socioeconomic Impact in Small Ruminants
Authors: Abera* Mulugeta
Published: November 2023

Peste Des Petits Ruminants (PPR) are a highly contagious viral disease that mainly affects sheep and goats. It belongs to the genus Morbillivirus in the family Paramyxoviridae. Today, this disease is considered a cause of mortality and morbidity in many countries of the world. The disease occurs south of the Sahara Desert and north of the equator in Africa, most of the Middle East, and parts of Asia, including the Indian subcontinent. It is transmitted by aerosols during close contact between animals, mainly through sneezing and coughing. The disease is characterized by high fever, discharge from the eyes and nose, pneumonia, necrosis and gastrointestinal tract leading to foul smelling diarrhoea. Diagnosis can be made based on clinical, pathological and epizootological findings. This has significant economic implications for food security and livelihoods. Therefore, PPR is considered one of the most damaging animal diseases in Africa, the Middle East and Asia, and is also one of the priority diseases listed in the FAO-OIE Global Framework for the Progressive Control of Trans boundary Animal Diseases. Peste des Petits ruminants are common in Ethiopia due to economic losses due to reduced production, death, abortion and cost of disease control. There is no specific treatment for PPR. However, drugs that control bacterial and parasitic complications may reduce mortality. For surveillance purposes, circular vaccination and/or vaccination of high-risk populations may also be useful. Therefore, eradication of PPR is done through a combination of quarantine, movement control, cleaning and disinfection of infected areas and vaccination.

Transgender health is a vital component in healthcare
Authors: Sethi Divya , Kiran Swosti , Pal Debkumar , Sahoo Bimal Kumar , Taywade Manish
Published: November 2023

The term “transgender” is used to describe individuals whose innate sense of one’s own gender, expression or behavior is not in alignment with the sociocultural expectations emerging from the gender assigned to them at birth, legally and medically. The term encompasses such a wide spectrum of gender identities and expressions that it has not been possible to completely understand the dynamics of a “transgender” individual’s experiences. A transgender faces injustice and discrimination at every turn in life. They are victims of sexual abuse, violence, social stigma and harassment, intense poverty, substance abuse, and overall poor physical and mental health. A transgender has both routine healthcare needs like the rest of the population and unique healthcare needs such as gender-affirming hormone therapy and surgeries. A transgender-friendly healthcare system with healthcare staff competent in knowledge and interest in transgender care is the need of the hour to address the health concerns of this population.

La identidad latinoamericana en los libros de texto. 1946-1955
Authors: Pintos Saraiva Carlos Eduardo
Published: November 2023

El estigma de la identidad latinoamericana lleva siglos; por ello, resulta interesante observar el tratamiento de dicha identidad en la República Argentina entre los años 1946 y 1955. El análisis fue realizado sobre bibliografía de circulación oficial para la educación primaria y secundaria. Es un trabajo que se genera desde dos temas históricamente centrales para la vida de las personas (y de quien escribe en particular) desde las prácticas, a su estudio: 1. La subalternización de individuos y colectivos, 2. La exclusión social. El problema en sí, tiene que ver con la bibliografía escolar y el tratamiento que se daba en el lenguaje a todo lo relacionado a América/Latinoamérica desde una idea de construcción de argentinidad y latinoamericanismo, a partir del positivismo eurocéntrico. Concepción desde la cual, por ejemplo, la idea de identidad latinoamericana es india y salvaje. También pretende por un lado, dar cuenta de la herencia cultural recibida de la “generación del ´80” y el corte eurocéntrico y segregador de la literatura escolar de aquellos tiempos; y por otro, cómo se percibía y alentaba la idea de Latinoamérica como bloque histórico, cultural, político y económico indisoluble en el período analizado.

Published: November 2023

O paper traz como tema os screenagers, a geração digital e sua relação com o contexto escolar no aspecto de aprendizagem e de interação com os recursos. Na educação contemporânea é nítido que as tecnologias digitais estão presentes e se fazem até mesmo necessárias em grande parte das práticas. Diante disso, é inevitável pensar e repensar sobre o formato do ambiente educacional e como ocorre o percurso escolar desse aluno. O objetivo geral deste paper foi compreender os caminhos possíveis para as relações e interações no ambiente escolar dos chamados nativos digitais. A metodologia empregada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica que levantou alguns artigos sobre o tema contribuindo assim para a fundamentação das ideias e organização das citações. A preferência de materiais é que estivessem publicados entre os anos de 2018 a 2023 e estivessem tanto em língua portuguesa quanto em língua estrangeira, podendo ser espanhola ou inglesa. O paper está organizado em um único tópico que traz as premissas e os elementos sugeridos pelo roteiro de orientação e torna-se de extrema importância para que futuros professores e docentes que já trabalham na educação tenham noção da realidade em que trabalham e visualizem novas tendências educativas dentro de um mundo virtual. O que a literatura trouxe foi a necessidade de construir metodologias, oportunidades, ambientes e possibilidades voltadas para o uso de tecnologias e que sejam atrativas para esses estudantes. Isso porque a dinamicidade é uma das palavras-chave para o aprendizado dessa geração e se apropriar de um recurso único apenas só promoverá insatisfação.

Published: November 2023

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by a decrease in the amount of dopamine in the brain that plays a role in controlling movement due to damage to nerve cells in the Substantia Nigra Pars compacta (SNc) in the brain stem and abnormal protein aggregation in the form of Lewy bodies, which contain -synuclein. Parkinson's disease is characterized by the presence of dominant motor symptoms in the form of tremor at rest, rigidity, bradykinesia, and loss of postural reflexes. Physical rehabilitation can generally be used in patients with Parkinson's disease to improve health and relieve symptoms. Aerobic exercise is believed to promote fitness in Parkinson's patients and improve motor function in the elderly with Parkinson's disease. The purpose of this literature review is to determine the effectiveness of providing aerobic exercise in improving motor function in the elderly with Parkinson's disease. The implementation strategy uses a literature review technique obtained through an online search process on related research journals that have existed previously. The search was carried out through the PubMed database. Giving aerobic exercise is effective in improving motor function in the elderly with Parkinson's disease.

Published: November 2023

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a disease characterized by mood or emotional, bodily, and behavioral symptoms of reproductive women that increase in the menstrual cycle during the luteal phase and disappear within a few days after menstruation. Approximately 50% - 80% of reproductive women suffer from PMS (approximately 3% to 8%) can cause severe mood swings, which interfere with their lifestyle and quality of life. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) is an effective way to achieve a balance between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system so  reducing the impact of stress on the body. This study aim to evaluate effectivity of progressive muscle relaxation by mobile health to premenstrual syndrome in adolescent. A quantitative study using a Quasy-experimental with two Group Pre-Posttest design. Samples are 52 adolescents have experience PMS, have reguler menstrual cycle, are able to communicate well, can read and write, have cellphones/other communication tools, and willing be a respondent. Instruments using PSST for Screening of PMS and DRSP for evaluate PMS at experimental and control groups. Experimental Group given PMR by mobile health during 10 days. Bivariat analysis using Mann-Whitney test. The result of study found that grade of PMS at pretest was 15% mild, 38,5% Moderate and Severe among 48,5%. The Mann-Whitney value showed that there was a significant difference found between experimental and control group at level of p <0,001. This is reveals that there was a significant decrease to premenstrual syndrome in the experimental group after PMR. This study showed that there is a strong need for further reproductive health education. So there should be a regular service and health education programme on premenstrual syndrome and  progressive muscle relaxation or exercises at all hospitals or clinic and nurses or another caregivers have an important role to do it.

Published: November 2023

O presente artigo tem o objetivo de investigar como os afetos gerados por professores formadores podem interferir na ampliação do poder de agir de professores em formação inicial. Para tanto, realizamos um estudo junto aos alunos do curso de Letras (língua português/francês), da Universidade Estadual do Ceará (UECE). O corpus analisado neste artigo é composto por respostas apresentadas por nossos sujeitos de pesquisa a um questionário elaborado pelos autores deste estudo. A fim de analisarmos o discurso dos discentes e de compreendermos as relações dialógicas estabelecidas, recorremos aos estudos da linguagem de Bakhtin e o Círculo (Bakhtin, 2011) e à Teoria dos Afetos (Spinoza, 2019). Em nossos resultados, foi possível concluir que, embora as questões relacionadas aos afetos não representem um tema recorrente na formação inicial dos professores do curso de Letras, a relação de alteridade estabelecida entre o professor formador e os formandos é um ato inquestionável. Além disso, observamos que os afetos estabelecidos nessa relação podem servir de alargadores das potencialidades e do poder de agir dos futuros profissionais; por isso, devem ser objeto de maior reflexão na formação inicial.

This study delves into the effects of integrating Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) and Boosting and Gaining Individual Word Understanding (BAG-IW) materials on the reading comprehension abilities of elementary learners. The research presents compelling evidence regarding the efficacy of these materials in enhancing the reading comprehension of these learners. While the majority of students generally fall within the instructional reading level, only a minority face challenges in grasping the meaning of texts. The study advocates for the sustained use of DEAR and BAG-IW materials to further augment the reading proficiency of elementary learners in Baguio City and Mt. Province. Remarkably, these interventions have yielded success in moving some students from the frustration level to the instructional level, with an additional six learners reaching the instructional level. This underscores the significant impact of DEAR and BAG-IW on students' reading abilities, substantiated by the results of the chi-square analysis. Consequently, this research highlights the imperative of continued investment in these programs, emphasizing their value as instrumental tools for enhancing reading comprehension among learners. The implications of these findings are far-reaching, extending to educators and policymakers who seek to improve the reading proficiency of primary school students, ultimately contributing to their academic success and overall development.

Published: November 2023

O alho (Allium sativum) é uma especiaria muito comum e rica em benefícios à saúde, isso se deve aos seus diversos compostos bioativos. Nos últimos tempos, percebe-se que estudos acerca da atividade antimicrobiana do alho vem ganhando grande visibilidade, principalmente no que se diz respeito aos óleos essenciais (OEs) e sua eficácia frente a inúmeras espécies de microrganismos (MO). Existem vários métodos que podem ser empregados, sendo um dos principais e mais utilizados a hidrodestilação. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a atividade antimicrobiana in vitro do óleo essencial do alho extraído através de hidrodestilação com extrato multienzimático, por meio de sua imersão em discos de fusão aplicados em ágar e cepas de S. aureus. O óleo de A. sativum com compostos ativos foi desenvolvido utilizando a enzima ativa advinda do fungo Rhizopus microsporus para extração. Não mostraram alteração nem formação de halo, dando o indicativo de que este OE com extrato de Rhizopus microsporus não possui atividade antibacteriana para S. aureus. Visto isso, faz-se necessário a realização de outros estudos sobre o tema abordado, sob o intuito de ampliar conhecimentos e beneficiar o público-alvo para o combate da resistência bacteriana, com a efetividade comprovada e a devida segurança ao consumidor.

Published: November 2023

Objective: Tapentadol is an atypical opioid analgesic thought to have dual mechanisms of action: μ-receptor agonism and inhibition of norepinephrine reuptake. Unlike other atypical opioids, tapentadol is a schedule II-controlled substance. We compared the prevalence of abuse (use to get high) of tapentadol to other atypical opioids used to treat pain (buprenorphine and tramadol).

Design: An observational, serial cross-sectional study.

Setting: Individuals enrolling in treatment programs for opioid use disorder in 2019. Each completed a self-administered, paper questionnaire assessing prescription drug abuse and illegal drug use within 1 week of enrollment.

Main outcome measures: Indication of past month abuse of tapentadol or comparator drugs on a self-administered questionnaire.

Results: There were 6,987 respondents. Unadjusted and utilization-adjusted logistic regression models were used to compare odds of endorsement of tapentadol to tramadol and buprenorphine products indicated for the management of pain. Unadjusted abuse prevalence was 0.20 percent for total tapentadol (0.03 percent for NUCYNTA® and 0.06 percent for NUCYNTA ER). Relative to total tapentadol, the odds of abuse of buprenorphine for pain was 2.9 times greater (95 percent CI: 1.6 to 5.3, p < 0.001), and for tramadol, 43.1 times greater (95 percent CI: 25.3 to 73.3, p < 0.001). Adjusting for prescriptions dispensed, differences in odds of abuse were not statistically significant (odds ratio (OR) = 1.6, 95 percent CI: 0.9 to 3.0, p = 0.108 for buprenorphine for pain and OR = 0.7, 95 percent CI: 0.4 to 1.2, p = 0.209 for tramadol).

Conclusions: Tapentadol use to get high is less frequent than other atypical opioids. Findings suggest tapentadol is rarely the primary drug abused by an individual.

Authors: Abubakar Hamza , Yusuf Surajo
Published: November 2023

This study focuses on the application of formal logic systems to real-world problem-solving, specifically in the classification of the COVID-19 Surveillance Data Set (CSDS). The research introduces the integration of a random three satisfiability problem of Boolean logic into a Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) to obtain an optimal representation of Random kSatisfiability for CSDS classification. The primary goal is to utilize the optimization capabilities of the Lyapunov energy function in the HNN to extract logical relationships and identify significant features contributing to COVID-19 detection. The CSDS used in this study is sourced from the reputable UCI dataset, and the HNN's energy minimization mechanism is employed for logical mining. Computational simulations are performed with varying numbers of clauses to validate the efficacy of the proposed model in training the CSDS for classification purposes. The results showcase the efficiency and robustness of employing reverse analysis using k-satisfiability in conjunction with a Hopfield Neural Network. This approach successfully extracts dominant features related to the logical framework underlying the CSDS. By combining formal logic systems with the power of neural networks, this research offers insights into the correlation between logical rules and COVID-19 detection. The findings contribute to our understanding of how the HNN can effectively learn and classify data, opening avenues for enhanced classification techniques in the healthcare sector and other domains.

Published: November 2023

This research presents an advanced methodology for estimating the epsilon and minimum samples parameters in the DBSCAN clustering algorithm using a Stratified Sampling and Grid-Search approach. Our method showcased notable improvement in eps estimation precision across nine diverse datasets compared to conventional techniques. By accounting for dataset variations in structure and density, stratified sampling leads to superior cluster formations. The k-nearest distance graph further refines these relationships, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of data densities. Additionally, our method underscores the importance of each dataset’s unique stratum, providing holistic insights. We also introduced a Grid-Search technique for MinPts estimation with the help of silhouette score, challenging traditional rule-of-thumb settings. Our approach suggests setting MinPts flexibly, considering the dataset’s specific attributes and has proven its efficacy by enhancing clustering results, with implications for both SS-DBSCAN and traditional DBSCAN frameworks. This study highlights the potential of parameter estimation in optimizing clustering outcomes and computational efficiency.

We built an AI Fitness Application in hopes of addressing the problem of obesity. Obesity and lack of fitness awareness are major problems in the United States that lead to unhealthy lifestyles and health risks. To solve this problem, we developed an app that bundles together essential components to help a person keep up with their fitness. Our app includes a calorie logging system where you can log your food and exercise, a fitness tip section, and a collection of exercise videos. Our technology uses Flutter Dart as the main programming language for the User Interface. We also use Python from our AI system and Firebase for our database [11]. In our research, we tested out our AI Food Classification Model and Calorie Tracking system. After extensive testing, we realize the need to fine tune our calorie tracking system for exercises and also to expand our AI model’s dataset to recognize more common foods. Some challenges we faced were: 1. Integrating our AI Food Classification Model to the frontend 2. Create a Calorie Calculation Function and connect that with the frontend. Overall, our system provides a simple and friendly interface that anyone can pick up instantly. Our solution is not a large-scale solution to obesity, but rather it’s an option that the everyday person can use quickly.

This study aims to determine the analgesic effect of ethanol extract of celery leaves by increasing the dose of ethanol extract of celery leaves from previous researchers. A total of 9 test animals were divided into 5 treatment groups, namely the first group of test substances at a dose of 4mg/20gBW, the second group of test substances at a dose of 8mg/20gBW, and the third group of test substances at a dose of 16mg/20gBW. The test is carried out by giving a hot stimulus or Hot Plate at a temperature of 550C. The test animals were observed before and after the administration of the test material, 30th, 60th and 90th minutes. The response of the test animals was a decrease in the number of paw licking and jumping. The results of data analysis in the form of tables and graphs show that the ethanol extract of celery leaves can reduce the response of mice in licking their feet and jumping to hot stimuli. Statistical results show that by using the anava test. Where Fcount 0.85 ≤ Ftable 5.14 using α 0.01 which means that there is no significant difference between the 4 mg dose of celery leaf extract and 8 mg dose of celery leaf extract and 16 mg dose of celery leaf extract.

Sosyal bilimlerde geçmiş unsurların günümüzde kullanımı metodolojik olarak tartışmalıdır. Zamansal şimdinin dinamikleri, geçmişten günümüze uzanan bununla birlikte belirli bir sıralama ve seçime tabi olan bir süreçtir. Bu makalede, söz konusu sıralama ve seçimin kronoloji ve vigizm kavramları ekseninde incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Kronoloji, kavramsal olarak geçmiş zamanın sıralanmasıdır. Ayrıca Hıristiyan geleneğine dayalı takvim kültürünün başlangıcıyla ilerleme fikrinin kesiştiği bir kavramsal sürece sahiptir. Süreklilik ve noktasal an unsurlarını içeren iki bileşene sahip kronolojinin sosyal bilimler için sahip olduğu işlev ve zorunluluk tartışılmaktadır. Makalenin diğer kavramı vigizm ise geçmişin soyutlanarak belirli çıkarımlar içerisinde günümüzü verecek şekilde yorumlandığı bir zaman problemidir. Vigizmin zaman problemi olarak tanımlanması, geçmişte şimdiyi görmenin ve şimdinin kökünün geçmişte fark edilebilmesinin mümkün olduğu iddiası nedeniyledir. Makalede vigizmin siyasi arka planı irdelenerek tarih yazımında şimdinin oluşumunda oynadığı baskın role dikkat çekilmektedir. Nihayetinde makale, sosyal bilimler alanında kullanılan kronolojik dizilimlerin vigistik olarak etiketlenmelerinin imkânını metodolojik bakışla ortaya koymayı hedeflemektedir. Bu bağlamda kronolojiden uzaklaşmanın imkânı tartışılmaktadır. Niteliksel bir zaman değişimi içeriğiyle kayrolojik zaman, makalede bir öneri olarak gündeme getirilmektedir.
