Authors: SÜMER Fatma
Published: July 2022

We aimed to present our case of total blindness without intracerebral lesions and optic atrophy after methanol intoxication during the first 3 months. A 28-year-old male patient was consulted to the emergency department with complaints of a sudden decrease in vision, nausea, and dizziness was evaluated in terms of ocular findings. It was learned that he had taken 400-500 ml of alcohol made at home, about 16 hours ago, the evening before his story. In the ophthalmological examination of the patient, the pupils were bilaterally fixed and dilated. Bilateral visual acuity was found to be light perception. There was no pathological feature in anterior segment examination. Intraocular pressure was 15 mmHg in the right eye and 16 mmHg in the left eye by Goldmann’s applanation tonometry. The optic disc and macula were observed normally in the examination after dilatation. At the 3rd-month follow-up examination, his visual acuity was at the level of light perception. The patient stated that he had difficulty seeing in daylight due to photophobia and that he could see more easily in the evenings and dim light. Acute alcohol poisoning has high morbidity and mortality and should be taken seriously and managed promptly. Delay of treatment can cause complications, permanent damage or death. However, it can leave permanent damage despite early and full intervention. It may take time for these permanent damage to become visible anatomically.

In the structure of injuries among patients with fractures of the patella, patients of working age prevail, placing high demands on the functional results of surgical treatment and terms of recovery. Given the low incidence of this pathology in the structure of all injuries of the musculoskeletal system, the authors are of the opinion that patients with patella fractures should receive specialized care that meets the requirements for certain types of fractures in trauma hospitals of any level. The described clinical example describes the medium-term results of treating a patient using a patented method of osteosynthesis of the patella that meets both the requirements of patients and the basic principles of osteosynthesis of intra-articular fractures. The data provided is characterized as good, the use of the patented method is regarded as expedient.

The article presents our own experience of observation during interventions on the distal biliary tract using a combined method – "Rendezvous" in patients with pathology of the pancreatobiliary zone, complicated by obstruction of the bile ducts. In one case, with a pronounced adhesive process of the abdominal cavity with a surgical aid, the endoscope was carried out to the descending branch of the duodenum. Towards the endoscope through the stump of the cystic duct, a conductor string was brought down, which made it possible to visualize the major duodenal papilla (MDP), to perform retrograde papillosphincterotomy with choledocholithotomy. In the second case, if it was impossible to pass the guidewire retrogradely beyond the area of the tumor narrowing, an alternative method was used – bringing it down by percutaneous transhepatic access towards the endoscope to install a retrograde stent delivery system.

Published: July 2022

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is known to be one of the most common arrhythmias noted in cardiac procedures and is frequently associated with heart failure. As frequent interventions for patients with heart failure involve implantation of mechanical circulatory assist devices (e.g., left ventricular assist devices), it is timely to review the role this arrhythmia has on adverse clinical outcomes. A comprehensive literature search was conducted for PubMed. Relevant medical subject heading (MeSH) terms used in the initial literature search include “Heart-Assist Devices”, “Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation”, “Atrial Fibrillation”, “Heart Failure”, “Mortality”, “Hospital Readmission”, “stroke”, “Postoperative Complications”. In this review, the relevant literature was highlighted to identify the incidence, clinical impacts, and management of AF surrounding mechanical circulatory support implantation. The incidence of AF in this mechanical circulatory support device population was similar to that of patients with other cardiac procedures (10%-40%). Moreover, in most studies, preoperative AF was not significantly associated with adverse outcomes. In contrast, however, it appears that postoperative atrial fibrillation may predispose patients to increased risk for thromboembolic events and adverse long-term outcomes.
A Study On Algorithm-Generated Assembly Of Curved I And Y Shaped Branches For Temporary Shelters
Authors: Kerezov Anton D. , Koshihara Mikio
Published: July 2022

The aim of the research is to propose a workflow and an assembly tool for architecture based on curved wood in its whole unmodified form e. g., wasted crown wood from producing sawn timber, wood thinnings cut during forest management or just branches found in the woods. This paper describes the workflow from collecting the real wood to algorithmically generating a shelter structure. The authors propose a new spatial system suited for irregular elements along with a computer tool to generate all possible variations out of the input branch data. The merit of this approach is that it could fit any number of randomly sized branches together into combinatorically predefined structural shell surface, made of irregular triangles. The fitting is based on different parameters such as size, weight, curvature of the branches and can be filtered by the structure's height, interior volume, plan area, surface area of the shell, etc. The user can control these parameters to select the best solution to be build. This shelter generation method could be deployed to smart devices and used remotely in disaster mitigation and relief after earthquakes, floods or in times of wildfires and other emergency situations. This approach to architecture could prove useful because of its speed and ease of construction, low market price, as well as introducing a new way of shelter design generation.

Published: July 2022

Mesostructured patterns are a modern and efficient concept based on designing the geometry of structural material at the meso-scale to achieve desired mechanical performances. In the context of bending-active structures, such a concept can be used to control the flexibility of the panels forming a surface without changing the constituting material. These panels undergo a formation process of deformation by bending, and application of internal restraints. This paper describes a new constructional system, FlexMaps, that has initiated the adoption of bending-active mesostructures at the architectural scale. Here, these modules are in the form of four-arms spirals made of CNC-milled plywood and are designed to reach the desired target shape once assembled. All phases from the conceptual design to the fabrication are seamlessly linked within an automated workflow. To illustrate the potential of the system, the paper discusses the results of a demonstrator project entitled FlexMaps Pavilion (3.90x3.96x3.25 meters) that has been exhibited at the IASS Symposium in 2019 and more recently at the 2021 17th International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. The structural response is investigated through a detailed structural analysis, and the long-term behavior is assessed through a photogrammetric survey.
Ultra-High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete: Fresh Properties
Authors: Qaidi Shaker
Published: July 2022

UHPC is a cement-based composite that is used in new construction and/or renovation of existing structures to increase their service life. It is a unique composite material that may be used as an alternative to concrete in harsh conditions. Following decades of research and development, a wide range of commercial UHPC compositions are now accessible across the world to fulfill the growing number of applications and demand for high-quality construction materials. Although UHPC has significant advantages over conventional concrete, its use is limited because of rigid design restrictions and excessive pricing. As a consequence, a detailed analysis of UHPC's durability qualities is necessary to provide critical information for material testing requirements and methods, as well as to widen its practical applications. The goal of this study is to learn more about UHPC and to encourage more research and use of UHPC.

Highly transparent thin films with the chemical formula BaSrMgWO6 were deposited by spin coating using a solution of nitrates of Ba, Sr and Mg and ammonium paratungstate in dimethylformamide with a ratio Ba:Sr:Mg;W=1:1:1:1. XRD, SEM, EDX and XPS investigations evidenced that an annealing at 800 ºC for 1h leaves the structure amorphous with a precipitate on the surface and that a supplementary annealing at 850 ºC for 45 min forms a nanocrystalline structure and dissolves a part of precipitates. It was evidenced a textured double perovskite cubic structure (61.9%) decorated with tetragonal and cubic impurity phases (12.7 %) like BaO2, SrO2 and MgO and an under-stoichiometric phase (24.4%) with the chemical formula Ba2-(x+y) SrxMgyWO5. From transmittance measurements the values of optical band gap were estimated for the amorphous (Eg= 5.15) and nanocrystalline (Eg=4.58 eV) phases. The presence of a lattice disorder was indicated by the high values of Urbach and weak absorption tail energies A decrease in their values was observed and attributed to the crystallization process and cation redistribution.

Canine leptospirosis is a zoonosis of epidemiological importance. Dogs are recognized as primary reservoirs of Leptospira interrogans serogroup Canicola and a source of infection to the environment through urine. This study aimed to determine the presence of antibodies against Leptospira in canines from 49 municipalities in the Department of Antioquia, Colombia. We performed a cross-sectional study of dogs included in a neutering control program. We collected 1335 sera samples, assayed by a microagglutination test (MAT), and performed PCR detection in 21 urine samples. We also surveyed 903 dog owners. We found a seroreactivity of 11.2% (150/1335) in Antioquia with titers 1:50. Municipalities with the highest number of cases were Belmira (46.1%), Turbo (34.5%), and Concepción (31.0%). L. santarosai was identified by phylogenetic analysis in one urine sample from the municipality of Granada. The most important factor associated with a positive result was the lack of vaccination against leptospirosis (PR 3.3, p < 0.014). Environmental factors such as water presence and bare soil around the household were also associated with Leptospira seroreactivity in the Department of Antioquia. We reviewed a national epidemiological surveillance database for human cases in those municipalities. We found a correlation between the high number of cases in canines and humans, especially in the Uraba. Serological and molecular results showed the circulation of Leptospira. Future public health efforts in the municipalities with the highest numbers of seroreactivity should be directed towards vaccination to prevent animal disease and decrease the probability of transmission of Leptospira. Dogs actively participate in the Leptospira cycle in Antioquia and encourage the implementation of vaccination protocols and coverage.

The spray drying process causes the buildup of an unspecified and unique pattern of wall deposits on the wall. The powder recovery of fruit juice by spray dryer is associated with stickiness problems because of the nature of food which contains low molecular weight sugars and organic acids, which have a low glass transition temperature (Tg). The surface properties of oxygen plasma treated-PTFE substrate were evaluated by using the different parameters of Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition (PECVD) prior to spray drying analysis. In this study, the fabrication method of nearly perfect superhydrophobic surfaces through plasma treatment with oxygen gas was generated and utilized. The plasma-treated PTFE were deposited from a fixed flow rate of oxygen gas with 30 cm3/min by varying the deposition time from 1 to 15 minutes to induce the hydrophobic surface of the PTFE substrate. The characterization techniques used to determine the morphology and chemical bonding of the substrate are field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. The hydrophobicity of the glass samples was determined by the water droplet contact angle. Sample prepared at radio frequency (RF) power of 90W for 15 minutes duration of treatment time showed porous and spongy like microstructure which correlates with the best performance of a good contact angle which creates the superhydrophobicity regime (171o). Surface morphology analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed changes in its roughness in the surface-treated glass substrate. The success of this method produced a huge potential for solving most of the food processing issues which relate to biofouling (e.g., powder stickiness) that would otherwise struggle to improve high productivity and recovery.

Objectives: This study assessed the associations between parent intent to have their child receive COVID-19 vaccination, and demographic factors and various child activities including attendance at in-person education or childcare. Methods: Persons undergoing COVID-19 testing residing in Minnesota and Los Angeles County, California with children aged <12 years completed anonymous internet-based surveys between May 10 and September 6, 2021 to assess factors associated with intention to vaccinate their child. Factors influencing parents’ decision to have their child attend in person school or childcare were examined. Estimated adjusted odds rations (AORs, 95% CI) were computed between parents’ intentions regarding children’s COVID-19 vaccination and participation in school and extra-curricular activities using multinomial logistic regression. Results: Compared to parents intending to vaccinate their children (n=4,686 [77.2%]), those undecided (n=874 [14.4%] or without intention to vaccinate (n=508 [8.4%]) tended to be younger, non-White, less educated and themselves not vaccinated against COVID-19. Their children more commonly participated in sports (aOR:1.51 1.17-1.95) and in-person faith or community activities (aOR:4.71 (3.62-6.11). They further indicated that additional information regarding vaccine safety and effectiveness would influence their decision. COVID-19 mitigation measures were the most common factors influencing parents’ decision to have their child attend in-person class or childcare. Conclusions: Several demographic and socioeconomic factors are associated with parents’ decision whether to vaccinate their <12-year-old children for COVID-19. Child participation in in-person activities was associated with parents’ intentions not to vaccinate. Tailored communications may be useful to inform parents’ decisions regarding safety and effectiveness of vaccination.

Neurotrauma continues to contribute to significant mortality and disability. The need for better protective equipment is apparent. This review focuses on improved helmet design and the necessi-ty for continued research. We start by highlighting current innovations in helmet design for sport and subsequent utilization in the lay community for construction. The current standards by sport and organization are summarized. We then address current standards within the military envi-ronment. The pathophysiology is discussed with emphasis on how helmets provide protection. As innovative designs emerge, protection against secondary injury becomes apparent. Much research is needed, but this focused paper is intended to serve as a catalyst for improvement in helmet de-sign and implementation to provide more efficient and reliable neuroprotection across broad arenas.
