Authors: Muhima Rani Rotul , Nugroho Hendro
Published: October 2022

The similarity of a pair of images can be measured using the distance measurement method from the feature extraction. The feature extraction method used in this research was the Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT). This method is an extraction method that is invariant to changes in scale, rotation, translation and illumination. In this research, each keypoint of test image is matched for its level of similarity with the Euclidean distance method. The similarity of each keypoint of the tested image is matched by Euclidean distance and it will be claimed similar if it has the smallest distance. Next, the corresponding keypoint of the tested image gets recall test by varying parameters of transformation in size, rotation, color, and angle as well as different image. The research results demonstrated that the recall averages of dataset were 100 for similar image test, 95 for size and rotation changes tests, 98 for colour changes test, 97 for angle changes test, and 0 for image test with different objects. Based on the results, SIFT is suitable for detecting the similarity of image object shapes.

“Schools Are Not Safer with Police”: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Public Comments on the Removal of School Resource Officers
Authors: Jenkins DeMarcus A.
Published: October 2022

Public comments offered by citizens at local school board meetings play an important role in shaping the educational policy process. However, educational researchers have underexamined them in debates about educational policy change. Drawing from critical discourse analysis, this study examines the public comments offered at a school board meeting where a proposal to terminate a contract with the police department and remove school resource officers from schools was being considered. In particular, this study is interested in the arguments that stakeholders use to express their support for or opposition to the board’s proposal. My findings highlight the logics that stakeholders employ to let their perspectives be heard including conflicting notions of safety, the possibilities for alternatives, and individual encounters with “good” police. As more districts across the United States consider removing police, this study contributes new insights into the influence of public opinion on policy decisions, as well as into community attitudes toward police in schools.

La pandemia de Covid-19 ha acelerado un proceso de transformaciÃ³n digital que, ademÃ¡s, se seÃ±ala como uno de los principales motores de recuperaciÃ³n. Aunque este proceso es imparable y necesario, la velocidad a la que se estÃ¡n desarrollando los acontecimientos puede atropellar a nuestra sociedad en distintos sentidos. ExclusiÃ³n digital, infodemia, desinformaciÃ³n, adicciones digitales, hiperconexiÃ³n, ciberacoso, suplantaciÃ³n de identidad, abusos de la privacidad, robo y perdida de datos, phishing o pharmingâ€¦ conforman una larga lista de amenazas digitales que crece cada dÃ­a y que puede poner en riesgo pilares fundamentales de nuestra sociedad como el acceso a derechos, la convivencia, la cohesiÃ³n social y, en definitiva, la propia democracia. Mediante esta nota se pretende identificar y describir vulnerabilidades y riesgos personales y sociales derivados de la aceleraciÃ³n digital â€“entre ellos la falta de competencia digitalâ€“ y cÃ³mo pueden afectar al ejercicio de derechos de las personas. Para generar esta propuesta de forma estructurada nos apoyamos en el Marco europeo de la competencia digital (DIGCOMP2.2) y en la Carta de derechos digitales presentada por el Gobierno de EspaÃ±a. El abordaje de los riesgos digitales es complejo dada la amplitud de facetas de la vida a las que afecta y las distintas perspectivas desde las que se puede afrontar, por lo que este ejercicio de sÃ­ntesis no pretende mÃ¡s que aportar una reflexiÃ³n crÃ­tica que contribuya a un enfoque personal y profesional proactivo del comportamiento y la inclusiÃ³n digital.

Authors: Bulut Menekşe
Published: October 2022

The current work was conducted to explore the influence of ultrasound times and amplitudes on the solubility and turbidity of whey protein concentrate (WPC). Ultrasound (US) application was employed using VC-750 ultrasonic power equipment with the frequency of 20 kHz at various times (10, 20, and 30 minutes at 50% amplitude) and amplitudes (60%, 80%, and 100% for 5 min). The outcomes exhibited that the US process have a significant impact on both solubility and turbidity (p<0.05). The highest protein recovery was obtained for the samples exposed to 30 min the US at 100% amplitude (65.56%). WPC samples treated at 100% amplitude showed higher solubility compared to the other samples at 60% and 80% amplitudes. While the solubility of WPC samples treated with 10 min showed the lowest solubility (9.13%), samples treated with 30 min showed the highest solubility (38.14%). There is a negative relationship between solubility and turbidity. All US-treated samples showed less turbidity and higher solubility where the control WPC samples showed the most turbid structure (0.88 NTU) with the lowest solubility (4.15%). Overall, US treatment with 30-minutes at 100 % amplitude showed the highest solubility (65.56%) and least turbidity (0.26 NTU) compared to the other sonication times and amplitudes.

Germinated foods and their effects on health
Authors: Kalaycı Zeynep , Şahin Kaya Aysel
Published: October 2022

Plant sprouts attract attention as ready-to-eat healthy foods in many countries. Different processes such as adding nutrients to the environment, especially humidity and temperature, are also necessary to ensure optimum germination. Germination is an inexpensive and effective method for improving the nutritional quality of plants. In the past, germination of legumes, especially some grains such as wheat and barley, was a common practice, but today, alfalfa, broccoli, soybean and some other cereal grains are germinated and consumed as sprouts. The amount of antinutritional factors decreases with germination; The amount of bioactive compounds such as phenolic compounds, phytosterols, folate, gamma aminobutyric acid, antioxidant activity and digestibility can also increase. In addition, the synthesis of new compounds such as Ɣ-oryzanol and amino acids increases during the germination process. In addition to the many physiological effects of germinated nutrients; It has been reported that these foods may have a decrease in the risk of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and neurological diseases. Therefore, germinated foods are considered as functional foods. Various biological activities of germinated nutrients have still not been conclusively proven. Therefore, there is a need for more studies on the various bioactive component contents of germinated foods and their effects on human health.

Published: October 2022

Objective: Intrathecal morphine (ITM) is an effective postoperative analgesia provided after Cesarean section. However, pruritus is an undesirable side effect that disrupts maternal breast feeding. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of three different doses of ITM added to spinal bupivacaine on postoperative analgesia and opioid-related side effects in Cesarean section. Material and Methods: This prospective randomized, triple-blinded trial was conducted in 321 patients undergoing Cesarean section. They were allocated to receive either; one intervention group; intrathecal morphine 50 mcg (IT50 group, N=98), 100 mcg (IT100 group, N=100), or 200 mcg (IT200 group, N=101), added to spinal bupivacaine for Cesarean section. The primary outcome was the incidence of pruritus in the recovery room, and then every 4 hours for 24 hours. The secondary outcomes were the pain scores at rest and during activities, time to the first analgesia, 24 hours of morphine consumption and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Results: Patient characteristics between the three groups were comparable. Both of the IT50 and IT100 groups had a lower incidence of pruritus, when compared with the IT200 group at all-time points, with the exception of at 24 hours; wherein, there were no differences between the three groups. Pain scores during activities were not different between the three groups. However, at rest the IT50 group had a higher pain score than those in the IT100 and IT200 groups; at 4, 8, and 16 hours. Time to the first analgesic requirement was shorter in the IT50 group (2 hours) than in the IT100 (2.4 hours) and IT200 (2.6 hours) groups (p-value=0.03). Moreover, the median [IQR] of morphine consumption in 24 hours was higher in the IT50 group [17 mg (9, 29.8)] than those in the IT100 [13 mg (5, 23.2)] and IT200 [12 mg (4, 17)] groups (p-value<0.001). However, the incidence of PONV was lower in the IT50 group compared to other groups. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that reducing the dose of ITM to 100 mcg added to spinal bupivacaine is effective to maintain postoperative analgesic effects. Additionally, it reduces the incidence of postoperative pruritus compared to ITM at 200 mcg.

In today’s world, where we move forward technologically, we spend more and more time to make agricultural activities efficient. We can shorten the time we spend by supporting the resources we have with technological methods. We can diagnose the disease of the plant with each prediction we make using models trained by the effective operation of computer vision and deep learning methods. We will be examining what results we have obtained when the models, which are image-based classification algorithms, were used for our problem, which were previously trained for different purposes. This method, which we call transfer learning, and the results of the dataset we collect, will give us the answer to the question of how more effective methods are needed for current and future studies.

Authors: Baral Radha , Dahal Samarika , Gupta Sanjay Prasad
Published: October 2022

Introduction: The measurement of the teeth is one of the most reliable methods of identification. The teeth represent the most durable, resilient, and chemically stable part of the skeleton. The comparison of tooth dimensions is one of the tools of sex determination. Canines, in particular, are found to have the greatest degree of sexual dimorphism. The aim of the study was to determine the mean mesiodistal width of canines in patients visiting a tertiary care centre.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was done among patients visiting a tertiary care centre from 25 August 2021 to 28 December 2021. The ethical approval was taken from the Institutional Review Committee [Reference number: 61 (6-11)E2 078/079]. The maximum mesiodistal width of the permanent maxillary canine was measured by a digital vernier caliper. The formula given by Garn and Len was used to calculate sexual dimorphism. Convenience sampling was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
Results: Among 104 maxillary casts studied, the mean mesiodistal width of the maxillary canine was 7.85±0.45 mm (7.76-7.93, 95% Confidence Interval). The mean mesiodistal width of the right maxillary canine in males and females were 7.90±0.48 mm and 7.83±0.45 mm respectively and that of the left maxillary canines in males and females were 7.92±0.44 mm and 7.75±0.45 mm respectively. The sexual dimorphism in the right and left maxillary canine was seen in 10 (0.96%) and 22 (2.12%) respectively.
Conclusions: The mean mesiodistal width of the maxillary canine was similar to other studies done in similar settings.

Introduction: Tobacco use is the underlying cause of ill health, preventable deaths, and disabilities worldwide. The Tobacco Product Control and Regulation Act 2011 prohibits the sale of tobacco in public places including educational institutions but non-compliance to the law had not been assessed. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of non-compliance to the Tobacco Product Control and Regulation Act among vendors in the vicinities of schools in a metropolitan city.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in a metropolitan city in August 2018. Ethical approval was taken from Institutional Review Committee [Reference number: 23(6-11-E)2/075/076]. A convenience sampling method was used to recruit vendors within 100 meters radius of secondary schools. The data were collected through face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured questionnaire. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
Results: Out of total 217 vendors, non-compliance to the section 3 of section 11 of Tobacco Product Control and Regulation Act was found in 195 (89.86%) (85.84-93.88 at 95% Confidence Interval). Among the non-compliers, 110 (56.41%) were selling both smoked and smokeless tobacco products, 78 (40%) were selling smoked and 7 (3.59%) were selling smokeless tobacco products.
Conclusions: The non-compliance with Tobacco Product Control and Regulation Act's prohibition of tobacco sales within 100 m of schools in Kathmandu Metropolitan was similar with other studies conducted in similar settings.
Prehabilitation in Patients before Major Surgery: A Review Article
Authors: Shakya Pawan , Poudel Sagar
Published: October 2022

The overall outcome of the patient after any surgery is determined not only by the fineness of the surgical procedure but also by preoperative conditioning and postoperative care. Prehabilitation decreases the surgical stress response and increases the preparedness of the patient to undergo planned surgical insult. Preoperatively structured inspiratory muscle exercises, cardiopulmonary fitness program, and planned exercise program for muscles of limbs, back, abdomen, head, and neck allow an overall upliftment of the physiological capacity of the patient to better cope with the surgical stress. Optimization of dietary status by macronutrients, micronutrients, and the nutrients has an impact on augmenting postoperative recovery and shortening the overall hospital stay. Preparing patients for the scheduled surgery and initiating alcohol and smoking cessation programs overhaul the patient’s mental health and boost the healing process. This concept of prehabilitation a few weeks before surgery is equally beneficial compared to enhancing operative procedures and postsurgical care.

Introduction: Computed tomography imaging provides detailed information about the paranasal sinuses and is now well established as an alternative to standard radiographs in evaluating patients with sinusitis. Sinusitis can have dangerous complications which can even lead to death if not diagnosed and treated on time. This study aimed to find the prevalence of sinusitis among the patients undergoing Computed Tomography scan of paranasal sinuses in a tertiary care centre.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Radiology at a tertiary care hospital from 1 October 2021 to 30 April 2022 after taking ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference Number: 023-078/079). The patients undergoing Computed Tomography paranasal sinuses and meeting the eligibility criteria were enrolled for the study after taking informed consent. Convenience sampling was done. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
Results: Among 113 patients, 109 (96.46%) (93.05-99.87, 95% Confidence Interval) patients had sinusitis. The most common subtype was found to be acute sinusitis in 63 (57.79%) individuals.
Conclusions: The prevalence of sinusitis was higher than in other studies done in similar settings.

Introduction: Major cases of poisoning are associated with organophosphates. Cholinergic effects and an intermediate phase seen with organophosphate poisoning may implicate myopathy. Creatine kinase is a marker of muscle tissue damage. This study aimed to find out the mean serum creatine kinase among organophosphate poisoning cases in a tertiary care centre.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among organophosphate poisoning cases in a tertiary care hospital from 13 October 2017 to 30 March 2018. Ethical approval was taken from the Institutional Review Committee [Reference number: 117(6-11-E) 2/074/075]. Blood samples were assayed for serum acetylcholinesterase in the pharmacology laboratory and for serum creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase in the biochemistry laboratory. Low serum acetylcholinesterase was taken as the basis for the establishment of organophosphate poisoning. A convenience sampling technique was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
Results: Among 103 organophosphate poisoning cases, the mean serum creatine kinase was 931.35±446.60 IU/l (845.10-1017.60, 95% Confidence Interval).
Conclusions: The mean serum creatine kinase level among organophosphate poisoning cases was higher than in other studies done in similar settings.

Published: October 2022

Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent protein that acts as a break in secondary hemostasis by inactivating activated factor V and activated factor VIII. We report a case of a 40 years old male who had the first episode of deep vein thrombosis of the left lower limb 10 years back, which despite treatment, reoccurred 3 months later in the bilateral lower limb. Thrombophilic screening showed severe protein S deficiency. The patient then developed deep vein thrombosis of both upper limbs. The patient was advised to place an inferior vena cava filter, which he denied. The patient is now presenting with multiple episodes of post-thrombotic syndrome. Such attacks are treated with elastic compression stockings, rivaroxaban, and morphine. However, despite medication, the pain has not yet subsided. Hence, even though protein S deficiency is the rare cause of deep vein thrombosis when recurrent should be considered despite its rare occurrence.

Introduction: Diabetic retinopathy is a major microvascular complication of diabetes, and may progress to sight-threatening stages causing blindness with a consequent decrease in their quality of life. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of blindness among patients with type II diabetes mellitus attending the Outpatient Department of Ophthalmology of a tertiary care hospital.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among patients with type II diabetes mellitus presenting to the Outpatient Department of Ophthalmology of a tertiary care centre from 2 August 2021 to 30 June 2022 after receiving ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number: 74/2021). Diabetic patients underwent detailed eye examination including vision, slit lamp biomicroscopy examination, and fundus evaluation with full pupil dilation. Convenience sampling method was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated.
Results: Among 449 type II diabetic patients, blindness was seen in 17 (3.79%) (2.02-5.56, 95% Confidence Interval) patients. Among them, 1 (5.88%) had severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, 3 (17.65%) had proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 8 (47.06%) had severe diabetic macular oedema.
Conclusions: The prevalence of blindness among patients with type II diabetes mellitus was less than in other studies conducted in similar settings. Screening and timely management of diabetic retinopathy could reduce the prevalence of blindness due to diabetic retinopathy.
