Published: July 2020

In this paper it is presented a comparative theoretical study - performed by finite element analysis (FEA), of the tension state that appears at the level of the spine, as well as in the areas adjacent to it, under the following conditions: a) the existence of a comminutive fracture at the level of the vertebra T11; b) of the external immobilization of the body through a Lombax orthesis (LO) or of the internal immobilization of the column by means of a spinal fixator (SF); c) of performing some basic flexion or extension movements. In this study, both flexural force and extension force varied on three levels. The results of the comparative theoretical study were supplemented with the clinical observations obtained from a number of 52 patients who had suffered comminutive fractures in the T11 vertebra and who were treated - by external immobilization, in the Lombax orthesis or were surgically treated - by applying a trapped spinal fixator on the T10-T12 vertebrae. The study had demonstrated that, by immobilizing the body in the Lombax orthesis, following the application of the flexion or extension movement, the mobility of the body is low, the bone fragments move less distances by about 12% against to their displacement under the condition of immobilizing the column by a spinal fixator. Although, in the latter case, the displacements of the bone fragments are greater, the elastic behaviour of the spinal fixator determines the returning of the fragments and of the spine to the initial position as well as the distance between the vertebrae. Clinical investigations on patients treated by external immobilization of the body in the Lombax orthesis show that the values of the local kyphosis angle (LKA) are about 30% lower than the values of the same parameter obtained under the surgical treatment.

Biochemistry coupled with electrochemical approach is employed in a fast, relatively simple, yet highly precise detection of a plant extract antioxidant properties. Antioxidant capacity of dark red corn grains was investigated electrochemically using cyclic voltammetry (CV) on glassy carbon electrode (GC). The linear polarization resistance (LPR) measurements were performed for examining the corrosion inhibitive behavior of polyphenolics on mild steel. The consistent positive correlation (r=0.99) was established between total phenolic and flavonoid contents obtained by CV measurements and spectrophotometric antioxidant assay (DPPH test). Both analyses confirm the high antioxidant activity of tested pigments. Determination of the corrosion inhibition efficiency revealed that the red corn pigments have anti-corrosion effect on mild steels.

In this paper we present a series of obtained results from the analysis of the behavior of a solid particle on a flat oscillating surface, a process that is found in separation operations of a heterogeneous mixture of solid particles. In this study, the inclination angle of the flat surface (7 or 10 degrees) and the eccentric device speed (91, 244 and 405 rpm) were varied. The results are extracted from video analysis using two commercial video cameras (Sony DCR-SR 36) with a recording speed of 25 frames per second, using the SynthEyes and Mathcad processing software. The obtained results from the analysis helped us to extract data showing the movement on the three axes OX, OY and OZ, average travel distance, average moving time of the solid particle on working surface and average velocity of the solid particle displacement.

Preservation of the root canal anatomy is very important for the success of endodontic treatment.Properly instrumentation of curvet root canals is influenced by flexibility of endodontic instruments which depends on composition and thermomechanical treatment of the metallic alloy. The aim of the current study was to compare the changes in root canal geometry after the preparation with two systems that work in reciprocating motion (Reciproc25, Primary Wave One) and another one in continuous rotation (One Shape), using CT measurements. Forty-five canals of extracted molars with curvatures ranging from 9 to 40 degrees were chosen for this study. The canals were divided, according to the canal curvature into three homogeneous groups and were prepared with three different rotary systems: group I with Reciproc file 25.08 (VDW, Munich, Germany), group II with Wave One Primary 25.08 (Dentsply-Maillefer Ballaigues, Switzerland) and group III with One Shape 25.06 (Micro Mega, Bensancon, France).All groups were scanned pre and post instrumentation, using NewTo 3G CBCT (QR, Italy, FOV, 0.16mm voxel size). The following parameters were assessed after measurements on cross-sectional CBCT images: the centering ability, diameter change, canal transportation. All instruments maintain the original canal curvature well, resulting in no significant differences of their centering ability (P]0.05) and canal transportation (P]0.05). The highest increase in diameter of canal was observed with Primary Wave One, which was not statistically significant for the entire canal (P]0.05). Instrumentation with Reciproc was faster than instrumentation with One Shape and Wave One,but the differences were not statistically significant (P]0.05). All systems perform safe and proper canal preparations and can be used in root canal treatment of curved canals.

Organ damages, which contribute to the overall cardiovascular risk of hypertensive patients, should be early detected, prevented and treated. The study evaluated organ damage in a hypertensive study group with chronic kidney disease (CKD), compared with a study group of hypertension without CKD. Albuminuria was present in 41.2% and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate [60 ml/min/m2 was present in 72.5% of hypertensive with CKD. The comparison of organ damage revealed in the CKD group a statistical significant higher prevalence of organ damage as follows: intima-media thickness ]0.9 mm in 39.9% vs 10.5%, carotid plaques in 28.2% vs 12.6%, left ventricular hypertrophy in 39.9% vs 31%, ankle brachial index in 6.2% vs 3.5%. Early detection and treatment of additional cardiovascular risk factors as dyslipidaemia and hyperglycaemia, that have significant role in the pathogenesis of organ damage, contribute to the better prevention of cardiovascular and renal complications in hypertension with CKD.

Esophageal cancer is still a health problem in middle income countries. The up-front treatment in localized disease is crucial for a better survival. Data from literature are in favor of a better response to radiotherapy of squamous histology. We have run a retrospective study to compare the response of histological subtypes of esophageal cancer to radiotherapy according to irradiation. Of 44 cases (53.7%) of squamous cell localized esophageal carcinoma and 38 (46.3%) of adenocarcinoma, the response after radiotherapy containing multimodal neoadjuvant treatment was 29.5% (13pts) versus 39.5% (15pts) (p=0.475). No correlation was found between histology and tumor shrinkage. Survival was found similar between the two subgroups. Indeed, median relapse free survival was 11 months for both groups with 95% CI [8.86-13.13] or 95% CI [4.526-17.47], log rank 0.394 and median overall survival was 12 months, 95% CI [9.44-14.55] in squamous versus 15 months, 95% [8.30-21.69] in adenocarcinoma cases, log rank 0.195. In univariate regression, the median relapse free survival was significantly associated with irradiation dose and the concomitance of chemotherapy to radiotherapy, while in multivariate analysis only the last variable remained significant: HR 0.425, 95% CI [0.225-0.806], p=0.009. Our analysis showed a tendency to a better response in adenocarcinoma esophageal cancer after multimodal radiotherapy containing treatment.

The purpose of this study was batch scale elimination of Cosmos Red dye from aqueous medium by low cost and environmentally friendly adsorbents. To study the dye removing capacity, leaves of Raphinus sativus (radish) and peels of Citrus sinensis (orange) were utilized. Two adsorption isotherms were studied to explain adsorption equilibrium. The Langmuir isotherm is compatible to adsorption data. Best adsorption capacities for Raphinus sativus and Citrus sinensis were: 3.437 mg/g and 5.844 mg/g correspondingly. Citrus sinensis peels showed more adsorption. The negative values of thermodynamic parameters ∆Go for both adsorbents have shown the feasibility of this process. The results had shown that for removal of Cosmos Red dye, Citrus sinensis (orange) peels are more efficient adsorbent as compared to Raphinus sativus leaves.

In clinical practice, after dental extraction, the main objective is the healing of the post-extraction wound, without complications and in the shortest time possible. According to specialized studies, the defense and regeneration mechanisms of the body are in direct correlation with the plasmatic level of some vitamins, mainly vitamin C, which is directly involved in the repair of damaged tissues. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the healing of the post-extraction wound in the conditions of oral administration of vitamin C, according to a predetermined administration protocol, as compared to the healing process under conventional conditions. Five volunteers were included in the study, who presented two teeth with indication of extraction, one of the extractions being performed under the conditions of administration of vitamin C. The evolution of the healing of the post-extraction wounds was assessed comparatively. The examination was done with the help of photographic examination by directly measuring the vestibulo-oral dimensions of the wounds using the digital micrometer and by recording the blood microcirculation at the level of the alveolar wound using the laser Doppler flowmetry. The level of vitamin C in the tissues was also determined, using the lingual test for vitamin C, a simple and non-invasive method that uses the reagent 2.6 dichlorophenol-indophenol. The results of the preliminary study show that the evolution and healing of the post-extraction wound is accelerated under the conditions of vitamin C administration, with regard to the administration protocol used in the study and compared to the healing situation under classical conditions. It can be stated that the human body consumes higher amounts of ascorbic acid in the case of dental extractions therefore the administration of vitamin C is a necessity if a faster healing of their post-extraction wounds is desired.

Published: July 2020

Wastewater produced from wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) process contains large amounts of suspended solids (SS), heavy metals and salinity. Compared to traditional chemical coagulation, electrocoagulation (EC) technology is a novel technology to remove these pollutants with lower O&M costs and simplified facilities. In order to achieve better EC effects, the speciation change of flocs generated from two kinds of sacrificed electrodes (e.g., Al and Fe) is investigated in various operation parameters. The results show that iron anode performed better compared to aluminium anode. At 20V of voltage and 6cm of electrode gap, the percentage of polymeric species of iron flocs can reach more than 50%. The significant domination of polymeric species under the optimal conditions during electrocoagution is responsible for the turbidity removal.

Published: July 2020

Budesonide, a glucocorticosteroid is generally used to treat chronic inflammation and asthma. Hepatic first-pass metabolism and poor solubility are the major causes of its limited oral bioavailability. Present work was undertaken for the preparation of hydrogel film formulation with cyclodextrin complexation of budesonide containing quaternary surfactant for possible enhancement of mucosal permeation. FTIR study confirmed drug-polymer hydrogen bonding. Almost complete amorphization of the drug was pronounced by SEM, DSC and XRD studies. The film containing benzalkonium and hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin exhibited in vitro dissolution and mucosal permeation to the highest extent of 87.2 and 95.8 % respectively in contrast to the others. Film formed hydrogel in aqueous mucin and enhanced the mucosal tissue residence time due to the mucoadhesive nature of the polymer. Acute inflammation in the rabbit eye was controlled within 3 h by applying the film in the cul-de-sac. The presence of cyclodextrin and quaternary surfactant brought about significantly improved drug release and mucosal permeation compared to their absence in the HPMC film. Hydrogel formed in aqueous mucin enhanced the mucosal residence time and controlled acute inflammation in the rabbit eye within 3 h after topical application.

Published: July 2020

A newly developed direct injection HPLC-DAD method for the simultaneous detection of Brilliant Blue (BB), Sunset Yellow (SY) and Tartrazine (TA) synthetic dyes was validated and applied to surface and wastewater samples. Chromatographic separation was achieved using an Acclaim Surfactant Plus column (150 x 3.0 mm, 3 um) in isocratic elution mode with a mobile phase consisting of 100 mM CH3COONH4 and ACN in the ratio 50/50 (v/v). Linear calibration curves were plotted in the range of 2-100 μg/L (BB) and 6-300 μg/L (SY, TA) respectively with correlation coefficients (R2) higher than 0.99. Low quantitation limit values (LOQ) were obtained for the direct injection HPLC-DAD method, namely: 1.0 �g/L (BB), 5.5 �g/L (SY) and 5.8 �g/L (TA), respectively. The entire sample preparation procedure consisted only in simple filtration using PTFE syringe filters (0.45 �m) without sample extraction or concentration, which improved method accuracy and precision. HPLC-DAD developed method proved to be fast (6 minutes run-time), sensitive and accurate and was succesfully applied for the analysis of the synthetic dyes in surface and wastewater samples. Considering all analyzed samples (8 surface water and 11 wastewater samples), Brilliant Blue was found in influent samples with values between 4.49 � 14.17 �g/L and effluent samples with values between 1.07 � 9.54 �g/L, whereas Sunset Yellow and Tartrazine were not detected in any of the analyzed samples.

Sorghum is one of the most important economic crops in the semi-arid areas of northern China. However, its yield is still relatively low, and some factors, such as the amount of different chemical fertilizers application and planting density, limit the increase of yield. In order to study the effect of fertilizer application rate and planting density on the growth and yield of sorghum, Longza 16 was used as test variety material, and the experiment was conducted with the split plot design. The fertilizer application (375kg/hm2(N:P:K=1:0.7:0.4), 375kg/hm2(N:P:K=1:0.7:0.8), 375kg/hm2 (N:P:K=1:0.7:1.6), 750kg/hm2（N:P:K=1:0.7:0.8), 750kg/hm2（N:P:K=1:0.7:1.6)) was designed as main plot and planting density (96000 plants/hm2, 109000 plants/hm2, 128000 plants/hm2, 154000 plants/hm2）was arranged as subplot. The photosynthetic parameters and yield-related characters were determined during the whole growth period of sorghum. The results showed that the effect of fertilizer application on the yield of sorghum was significant. The yield increased with the increase of fertilizer application, and the yield of 750kg/hm2 (N:P:K=1:0.7:1.6) was significantly higher than that of other treatments. Different planting densities also had a significant effect on the yield, showing that the yield increased with the increase of density, and the yield was the highest under the density of 154000 plants/hm2. In addition, the result of composite effect of fertilizer application rate and density showed that the yield of the treatment of 750kg/hm2 (N:P:K=1:0.7:1.6) and 154000 plants/hm2 was the highest, which was considered to be more suitable for the production of sorghum in the semi-arid areas of northern China.

Published: July 2020

A thermal imaging method to detect inflammatory intra-abdominal pathology in infants is proposed and evaluated through a clinical trial. Nine surgical infants, mean chronological age 58 days old (range: 21-83 days), mean weight 2.65 kg (range: 2.45-3.15 kg) with abdominal pathologies were included in the analysis. Infrared thermal image processing consisted of selecting the surgical region of interest where the area of abdominal inflammation was most likely to be, and an abdominal reference region on the same infant, with the aid of clustering segmentation. Skewness was found to be the most sensitive variable to significantly differentiate between the surgical region and reference region (p = 0.022). Multilinear regression analysis indicated that the relationship between the temperature difference signified by skewness and the patients' demographic information (age at time of imaging, gestational age at birth, weight at the time of imaging, birthweight, last stool prior to imaging and last oral intake prior to imaging) was not significant. The study indicated that inflammatory regions, such as those found in infants following surgery, would have a significantly different temperature distribution than the surrounding skin. The method differentiated between an inflammatory and non-inflammatory region on the abdomen

Low birth weight (LBW) accounts for the highest percentage of causes of neonatal death. The purpose of this study was to identify family profiles that influence the incidence of LBW throughout Southeast Asia. The sample in this study were women aged 19-29 years. The data used were secondary data published by Measure Demografic Health Survey (DHS) in 2005-2014. Women's profiles identified included maternal factors (area of residence, education, age, economic status, marital status, parity, location of delivery), health service factors (iron consumption, pregnancy visit / ANC). The results showed that the incidence of LBW occurs a lot with the profile of respondents who have rural areas, even though they have high economic status. Most respondents who gave birth to LBW had secondary and low education, with unmarried marital status and low partner education. In addition, there were still many respondents who were not obedient to antenatal visits and consume less iron. However, some had given birth at local health services, although there were still respondents who had a lot of parity. Researchers  suggest  that women, especially women of  childbearing age, want to pay attention to the risk factors for the incidence of LBW, including consumption of iron and delivery in health services so that the incidence of LBW can be suppressed.  Keyword: family profile, Southeast Asia, LBW, women of childbearing age
