BACTERIOLOGICAL PROFILE AND ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY PATTERN OF SURGICAL SITE INFECTIONS IN A TEACHING HOSPITAL
Authors: SUBHASHINI B. S. V. V.
Published: July 2024

Objective: Surgical site infections (SSI) are defined as infections occurring within 30 or 90 d after surgical operation or within 1 y, if an implant is left in place after procedure and affecting either incision or deep tissues at the operation site. SSI is one of the quality indicators of the healthcare system. Due to advent of newer antibiotics and emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, SSI requires reappraisal of the microbiological flora and in vitro antibiotic sensitivity pattern. The aim of the present study is to determine the incidence etiology of SSI, and determine their Antibiogram.
Methods: Cross-sectional study conducted for a period of three months from January 2024 to March 2024. A total of fifty swabs/pus specimens from various types of surgical sites suspected to be infected on clinical grounds were collected from the post-operative wards of surgical departments and processed in Microbiology laboratory. Isolation and identification of bacterial agents were done as per standard protocols. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby-Bauer’s disc diffusion method.
Results: Out of 50 samples, 32 were culture-positive. 87.50% showed monomicrobial growth and 12.50% showed polymicrobial growth. Analysis of bacterial profile shows Staphylococcus aureus (27.77%) was the predominant isolate, followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19.44%) and Escherichia coli (19.44%). Antibiogram of gram-positive isolates showed sensitivity to Teicoplanin, Vancomycin, and linezolid, whereas gram-negative isolates were sensitive to Meropenem, Piperacillin-tazobactam and levofloxacin.
Conclusion: Status of SSI is the main quality indicators of hospital infection control and prevention measures. Continuous surveillance on etiology and antibiogram of SSI is necessary to monitor antimicrobial resistance and guide in empirical treatment.

Objective: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a severe joint disease that affects more than 60 percent of the elderly. It is highly prevalent and a leading cause of pain and disability worldwide. Symptoms can become increasingly debilitating over time and can greatly affect the quality of life, contributing to feelings of dependence and loss of autonomy in older people. Intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) is a new technology which is now being used to treat vascular diseases of the legs, to accelerate rehabilitation, to reduce oedema in the lower extremities, to treat cellulite as well as other indications. The majority of the examinations of physiological effects of intermittent vacuum therapy is based on reactions to stable negative pressure in the lower body.
Methods: A total of 30 patients, 15 in group A (Conventional) and 15 in group B, were randomly selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Outcome measures-VAS, WOMAC and Knee flexion ROM were assessed pre and post-intervention. The treatment was performed for 10 sessions.
Results: There was statistical significance seen in Group A (Conventional) and Group B (Interventional) in all outcome measures. However, treatment with Intermittent Vacuum therapy showed better results in comparison to conventional therapy. Data analysis was done using Paired T test.
Conclusion: Intermittent Vacuum Therapy along with conventional protocol showed significant improvement in the above outcome measures in O. A Knee patients. Therefore, Intermittent Vacuum Therapy can be incorporated as a part of rehabilitation in O. A Knee patients.
Analysing Speech in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice based on Gender
Authors: Prashanthi V. , Behera Dr. Aruna Kumar
Published: July 2024

Pride and Prejudice, a classic novel by Jane Austen, portrays the social and linguistic differences in the speech of men and women in 19th Century England. This paper attempts to explore how language is used as a tool for representation of gender identity, social standing and power dynamics within the characters in the novel. This exploration is done by closely examining conversations and interactions among characters. It studies the differences between the ways the male and female characters use language to navigate their relationships, assert power and deal with social expectations. The syntactic structures, the choice of words, politeness strategies and speech acts are examined to study the interplay between language and gender that Austen brings out in her famed novel. The speech patterns are also involved in studying the gendered expectations and the societal norms, and how they are affected by speech. The paper contributes to the deeper understanding of the use of language based on gender differences and sheds light on the complexities of gender performance and expressions within the Regency-era English society. It gives the readers an insight into the way the author’s portrayal of speech reflects the gender dynamics throughout the novel.

Abstract. Synthesis of electrolyte 8% Y2O3 Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) and characterization of electrical conductivity with BSFC Ba0.5Sr0.5Fe0.9Cu0.1O3-δ (BSFC) electrode have been conducted. YSZ and BSFC were synthesized using sol-gel self-combustion. YSZ powder was calcined at 700℃ for 2 hours, then pressed into a disk and sintered at 1550 ⁰C for 6 hours. While BSFC powder was calcined at 850 ℃ for 6 hours and sintered at 1100 ⁰C for 6 hours. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis shows that calcined powder of both YSZ and BSFC has cubic structure possessing space group (Fm-3m) and (Pm-3m), respectively. The lattice parameter of the YSZ a = 5.17 Å and the crystallite size Φ ≈ 11 nm were evaluated using the Debye-Scherer equation.  A scanning electron microscope (SEM) shows that BSFC can adhere well to the surface of YSZ. The electrical behavior of the YSZ and half-cell BSFC||YSZ||BSFC measured at 150- 850 ⁰C shows the resistivity decreased with increasing temperature. The resistivity of BSFC||YSZ||BSFC is lower than YSZ due to the influence of BSFC. Cathode material BSFC is suitable for YSZ electrolytes.

Furuta pendulum is a mechanism with two rotating arms. One arm rotates in the horizontal plane, while the other rotates freely in the vertical plane. The arm rotating in the vertical plane acts as an inverted pendulum. Controlling the Furuta pendulum is challenging because the underlying mechanism is highly nonlinear, unstable, and underactuated. How to control the Furuta pendulum effectively motivates this study. The main contribution of this paper is to revisit a linear control strategy that seems to stabilize the Furuta pendulum. This paper revisits the Euler-Lagrange formulation and shows how to use this formulation to represent the Furuta pendulum's nonlinear dynamics. Data from simulating the Furuta pendulum through equations and virtual prototyping suggest the effectiveness of the linear control.
Improvement of an AC microgrid system’s stability by using a fuzzy logic-based PSS controller
Authors: Arora A. , Bhadu M.
Published: July 2024

This research article presents the low-frequency oscillation damping control of an AC Microgrid. It is integrated with four distributed generation units in which two DGs are renewable energy source based solar PV and wind energy using DFIG and the other two DGs are conventional synchronous generator-based hydro and diesel generators. There is insufficient generation through renewable-based DG then a diesel generator is employed as an emergency unit to fulfil the requirements and maintain and control the deviation of the frequency of the system. The use of renewable-based DG affected the system's dynamic stability and the characteristics of an integrated microgrid differ from conventional sources of generation. This investigation explores the impression of the deployment of multiple forms of the power oscillation damping (POD) controllers to distributed generation sources of grid forming AC Microgrid. The main various types of POD controllers are conventional lead-lag PSSs, MBPSS-4B, and proposed robust fuzzy logic PSS (FLPSS) controllers are implemented on distributed generation units of AC Microgrid for the elimination of low-frequency oscillation. Low oscillation frequencies between 0.1 and 2 Hz are the focus of this work. The system's damping ratios and stability margins because of MG integration are observed using eigenvalues analysis. The results of the simulation test demonstrate the accomplishment of the robust fuzzy logic PSS controller regarding conventional lead-lag PSSs and the MBPSS-4B controller during circumstances of fault.
El sitio de Cuautla: una aproximación al conocimiento de los insurgentes desde la prosopografía y la infidencia (1812)
Authors: Santiago Aparicio Eliud
Published: July 2024

Esta investigación analiza tres aspectos fundamentales del sitio de Cuautla: las razones que motivaron a miles de cuautlenses a enlistarse en las filas insurgentes del cura Morelos, las causas que más tarde los orillaron a abandonar Cuautla durante el asedio, así como las medidas que el ejército realista emprendió tras el sitio. Son dos las hipótesis aquí presentadas. La primera argumenta que el expansionismo de las haciendas azucareras fue la razón principal de los trabajadores rurales para rebelarse. La segunda sostiene que los móviles para huir del cerco militar fueron el hambre, el bombardeo, la epidemia y la muerte que los sitiados enfrentaron durante meses. Para sostener tales posicionamientos, los procesos de infidencia de los desertores ubicados en el fondo Infidencia del Archivo General de la Nación (México), fueron analizados desde el método de la prosopografía y la estadística. Finalmente, los principales hallazgos del artículo sugieren que el hambre fue el peor enemigo de los rebeldes en el sitio de Cuautla y que los indígenas fueron los principales desertores, mientras que los combatientes de origen africano mantuvieron una adhesión completa al cura Morelos.
Suicidios, epidemias y muerte en una collera de mujeres y niños apaches (n’dé) hacia la ciudad de México (1789-1790)
Authors: Venegas Delgado Hernán Maximiliano
Published: July 2024

El artículo presenta como objetivo general el análisis de una collera, en su inmensa mayoría compuesta por mujeres, niños y niñas apaches (n’dé), enviada desde la villa de Chihuahua hasta la ciudad de México, en cuanto al carácter inhumano y particularmente cruel de su traslado forzoso, de lo que resultan las conclusiones del trabajo. Por ello se analizan los suicidios cometidos como vía de liberación entre las ancianas, así como las numerosas epidemias y enfermedades contraídas, y los actos de rebeldía implícitos y silenciados, sobre todo, en la documentación analizada, entre otros graves problemas. Se plantea como hipótesis fundamental, de la que deriva la conclusión general del artículo, que todo ello trajo como resultado la muerte y la desaparición de aproximadamente la mitad de los integrantes de la collera, lo que recalca la necesidad de profundizar en este tipo de investigaciones. Para ello, los métodos de análisis esenciales utilizados fueron el histórico-comparativo y el analítico-sintético, en función del desarrollo de la historia coyuntural, que se prolongó más allá de su concepción teórica en el caso objeto de estudio, dada su trascendencia. Para todo ello se manejaron esencialmente fuentes documentales y, en particular, las referidas al extenso expediente de la collera estudiada, así como otras de carácter biblio-hemerográfico, en función de las comparaciones efectuadas con otros confines de la América ibérica.

Žanrovska polifonija romana "Lunar" Josipa Kulundžića
Authors: Tešić Iva
Published: July 2024

Cilj rada je da ukaže na složenu žanrovsku strukturu Kulundžićeve “mistične novele” Lunar, nastale u kontekstu avangardne književnosti s početka 20-ih godina XX veka. U radu se analiziraju žanrovi uključeni u Kulundžićev confusione dei generi (esejističko-filozofski diskurs, elementi bajke i razvojnog romana), koji su iskorišćeni za isticanje duhovnih vrednosti kao najrelevantnijih i to ne samo u egzistencijalnom, nego i u poetičkom smislu. Pored toga, uputićemo i na konsekvence žanrovske polifonije, koja je uticala na kritičarska osporavanja, kao i na slabu recepciju ovog Kulundžićevog literarnog eksperimenta.
Američka neokonzervativna književna kritika: Irving Kristol i Norman Podhoretz
Authors: Kukavica Sebastian A.
Published: July 2024

Neokonzervativizam valja shvatiti kao oblik američke konzervativne ideologije; kao specifični projekt političke filozofije kojim se nastoji prevladati percipirani stadij nihilizma Sjedinjenih Američkih Država nakon 1968; kao metapolitički projekt osvajanja političke hegemonije prethodnim osvajanjem kulturne hegemonije; te kao specifičnu retoriku restauracije velike pripovijesti američke iznimnosti. Kao matrica središnjih pojmova neokonzervativizma razotkriva se politički mit o dekadenciji. Neokonzervativna književna kritika nastaje iz temeljne metapolitičke postavke da se jedino uspostavom kulturne hegemonije te prevrednovanje političkih pojmova i konstitutivnih vrijednosti političkog poretka može prevladati dekadencija i otpočeti kulturna palingeneza. Zagovarajući nadzor nad književnošću i njezino plijevljenje od elemenata dekadencije, neokonzervativci modernu književnost shvaćaju kao potencijalnu opasnost i spremnik antinomijske političke imaginacije koja ugrožava američki politički režim iskušavajući i dovodeći u pitanje njegove konstitutivne vrijednosti. Književna se kritika, stoga, shvaća kao metapolitička alatka pomoću koje će se razvlastiti književnost dekadencije te, nakraju, ponuditi vizija moralno ozdravljene, pročišćene književnosti kao apoteoze konstitutivnih vrijednosti političkog režima, ortodoksije republikanske vrline te javnog morala. Remoralizacija književnosti koju neokonzervativci predstavljaju kao cilj književne kritike utoliko je samo dio sustavnog projekta neokonzervativne političke imaginacije, koja se, uslijed proglašenog sloma liberalne političke imaginacije, predstavlja kao jedini dovoljno snažan, političko-filozofski čvrsto utemeljen, ali i ideološki primamljiv okvir ponovnog začaravanja i legitimacije američkog političkog poretka. Analizom književne kritike Irvinga Kristola i Normana Podhoretza kao najutjecajnijih neokonzervativaca prve generacije u ovom će se radu prikazati obilježja neokonzervativnog metapolitičkog rata protiv književnosti dekadencije.

Olney São Paulo por ele mesmo
Authors: São Paulo Yves
Published: July 2024

Olney São Paulo foi cineasta e escritor, nascido em Riachão do Jacuípe, Bahia, tendo passado grande parte de sua vida em Feira de Santana, e posteriormente no Rio de Janeiro, onde realizaria a maior parte de sua produção fílmica. Membro do Ciclo Baiano de Cinema (1959-1965), realizou o filme derradeiro do movimento, e o único inteiramente produzido no interior do estado, Grito da Terra. Com a mudança para o sudeste, realizou Manhã cinzenta, que foi selecionado para festivais internacionais, dentre eles a Quinzena dos Realizadores, do Festival de Cannes, sendo premiado no Festival de Oberhausen, na Alemanha. Por este filme, foi perseguido pela ditadura, preso, submetido a torturas e a um longo processo em que foi obrigado a defender seu filme. Ao longo de toda sua carreira, manteve ativa colaboração com a imprensa, como repórter ou concedendo entrevistas como diretor de cinema. Neste livro, encontramos grande parte da produção de Olney, publicada ao longo de três décadas, iniciadas ainda nos anos 1950, quando escrevia uma coluna de crítica de cinema para o jornal da escola. Os textos aqui encontrados descrevem um panorama de inspirações e influências, de movimentações e inquietações, de maturações de ideias e experiências em meio ao cinema nacional. Além do aspecto biográfico dos textos, temos um verdadeiro testemunho de um membro do Cinema Novo quanto às ideias que compunham o movimento vindas de um de seus realizadores mais singulares (um sertanejo que cresceu no sertão e filmou neste espaço), desde a derrocada do filme de chanchada até a identificação de diretas influências estéticas de cinematografias modernas, como os filmes de Alain Resnais (França) e Akira Kurosawa (Japão). Fecha a antologia um conto não publicado na coletânea A antevéspera e o canto do sol, publicada pelo autor em 1969, apresentando também seu lado ficcionista.

Published: July 2024

The article examines the imagological contrasts of Old Russian literature. The events of Russian political history often became events of Russian literature. That is why they influenced the history of literature, in which the images of the heroes of these events stand out vividly. One such hero is St. Metropolitan Jonah of Kyiv. This is undoubtedly a significant figure for Russian Orthodoxy and the Russian state. He was born back in the 1390s in the principality of Galich-Mer, and died on March 31, 1461 in Moscow. With his personality begins the account of the independence of the Russian Church from the Patriarchate of Constantinople. The article presents the evolution of portrait changes of Jonah. First, his annalistic image is revealed. It is fixed by his contemporaries and closest descendants. They judged about Jonah and his deeds through the prism of their idea of life, and sometimes understood him little. Then the image of Jonah in his own literary works is considered. After the same and in hagiographical literature. A certain evolution of the image of Jonah in the century after his death is explained by the organic unity of the chronicles, as well as the material of the “literature of the miraculous” and their mutual refraction in the consciousness of the scribe. The image of Jonah in the liturgical (hymnographic) literature, which are a century and a half removed from the real life of the metropolitan, finally erase the boundaries between the personality of the earthly hero and his heavenly face. The birth of a myth takes place.
Transformation of Hagiographic Canon in the Menaion Vita of Joseph Volotsky: on the Issue of “Josephite” Topics
Authors: Ivanov Igor E. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: July 2024

The article examines the transformation of hagiographic canon in the menaion vita of Joseph Volotsky: on the issue of “Josephite” topics. In the 16th century, the scribes of the Volokolamsk Monastery, the disciples of St. Joseph Volotsky, conducted a fierce polemic both with “non-possessors” and with representatives of other major monastic corporations in Russia: the Trinity-Sergius and Cyril-Belozersky monasteries. Within the framework of this polemic, the Josephite scribes created a significant body of texts that reflected those issues that were related to the activities of Joseph Volotsky and especially worried contemporaries: problem of relationship between Church and state, right of monasteries to land ownership, need for physical punishment of heretics, conflict of the Volokolamsk abbot with Archbishop Serapion of Novgorod. In an effort not only to substantiate and develop the views of their teacher, but also to achieve the canonization of Abbot Joseph, the Volokolamsk scribes formed their own book tradition, supported by the relevant topic, which is found both in the Life (Vita) of Joseph Volotsky, and in the Life (Vita) of Paphnutius Borovsky, the teacher of the Volotsky abbot. In addition, the Volokolamsk paterik and the lives of famous Josephite saints: Cassian the Barefoot and Photius of Volotsky are involved in the analysis. The task of the work is to analyze exactly those toposmotifs that can be attributed to the Josephite book tradition.
Mstislav and Rededya’s Duel: Transformation of the Enemy’s Image
Authors: Andreeva Ekaterina A. ,   A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: July 2024

The article examines the reception of amous chronicle plot on the single combat of the Old Russian Prince Mstislav and the Kasozhsky Prince Rededya in the late literary tradition. It is interesting to trace the authors’ attitude to the image of enemy (alien) and characteristics of the heroes of confrontation. The old plot became attractive as it made it possible to comprehend and rethink the concepts of friend and alien, hero and enemy. The imagological perception of Rededya reflected the attitude towards the enemy in different epochs. The most negative image of enemy appears in the text of the Power Book of the Royal Genealogy, compiled in the era of victory over the Horde and the centralization of power in the hands of Moscow branch of princes. The image of Rededya is created in accordance with the biblical (the combat between David and Goliath) and Old Russian (the era of the Horde yoke) traditions, in the text he is not just a man, an enemy, but the embodiment of mortal sin, pride. Later texts refuse to dehumanize the enemy, turning him into a symbol of evil, but present him as a warrior, an opponent, a defeated one, at the same time religious motives and the perception of Mstislav’s victory as a miracle gradually disappear from the texts. Interest is shifting from the image of enemy to the image of prince Mstislav, who is now deprived of idealization, although he remains a generally positive character.
The Last Years of Life and Literary Work of St. Kirill of Turov: Old Hypotheses and New Data
Authors: Yudin Dalmat ,   Moscow Theological Academy
Published: July 2024

The article examines the last years of life and literary work of St. Tirill of Turov: old hypotheses and new data. There are two mutually exclusive views on the last years of St. Kirill Turovsky’s life in Russian medieval studies. The first of them explains the participation of Turov bishop Lawrence in the ordination of abbot of Kyiv-Pechersk Monastery Vasily so that St. Kirill by this time had left the department and was tonsured into the great schema. According to the second view, by the time of ordination of abbot Vasily St. Kirill was no longer alive. The article develops well-known arguments in favor of the first view, and also provides new evidence. The author of the article supports the opinion that before the middle of 1183 St. Kirill left the episcopal service and accepted the great schema, and also, possibly, retired into seclusion, from which he was previously called to hierarchical ministry.
The Image of M.V. Skopin-Shuisky in the Official Historiography of Russian Kingdom of the 17th Century (Historical and Political Aspect)
Authors: Strakhov Alexander B. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: July 2024

The article examines the image of M.V. Skopin-Shuisky in the official historiography of Russian kingdom of the 17th century. Prince Mikhail Vasilyevich Skopin-Shuisky (1586–1610) was a remarkable commander of the time of the Troubles and was its “only impeccable hero” (O.A. Tufanova), which was reflected in historical documents, journalism and even folk art of the 17th century. Naturally, the heroic image was used by the first Romanovs for their own purposes, but its content changed depending on the current political moment. Based on the analysis of the Story about Prince Mikhail Vasilyevich Skopin-Shuisky, the Chronograph of 1617, Another Legend, the New Chronicler, the Legend of Kings and Grand Dukes, etc. It is concluded that the image of prince is gradually turning from the figure of a brave commander into a tool for the first Romanovs to assert the illegitimacy of the reign of Tsar Vasily Shuisky. In the future, when the legitimacy of the Romanovs themselves was finally confirmed, M.V. Skopin-Shuisky gets a third-rate role in historical sources or disappears from their pages altogether.
Cycle of Illustrations of the Tsar’s Genealogy in the Book of Royal Degrees of Podyachy Fyodor Postnikov- Parfenev, 1670

The article considers a copy of the Book of Royal Degrees, unique in design and artistic quality, with a well-preserved, albeit very short (only two miniatures) cycle of illustrations. It was made by order of podyachy of Order-in-charge (Razryadny Prikaz) F.F. Postnikov-Parfeniev for a contribution to the Assumption Cathedral of Vladimir. Both of his miniatures are known to specialists, but have not previously been studied as plot and stylistically related images. The author of the article explores them for the first time in the context of the specific historical and literary narrative for which they were created, and the Russian artistic culture of the middle — second half of the 17th century generally. The location of the miniatures “Holy Princess Olga” and “Depiction of degrees” in the book code is determined by the composition of the text, but they are not its direct illustrations. They are assigned their own plot roles, and their symbolism complements and reveals the content of the Book of Royal Degrees in a new way. The study shows that the illumination of deposit manuscripts in the 17th century should be considered as a complex creative process, in which the artist and the customer participated to a different extent. This art required not only a deep understanding of the text of the book, but also the ability to flexibly use the iconographic schemes that had developed by that time, symbolic elements, pictorial and decorative techniques.
