Castration is one of the important aspects in the management of maintain and care for animals. The purpose of this study was to determine the age of castration in small and large breed dogs, to know purpose of carrying out castration in dogs, to know the techniques of castration in dogs. This literature study is obtained from searching and collecting various library sources from Google Scholar with the help of the Mendeley application. Based on the results of the study, age is the most important risk factor for most diseases. Castration age in large breed dogs should be done at a minimum age of 15-18 months and in small breed dogs at a minimum age of 5 months because in large breed dogs castration before 1 year can cause osteosarcoma and if castration under 6 months has a significant risk factor for the emergence of a tibial plateau angle. The aim of implementing castration in dogs is to control the population, prevent aggressive behavior, roaming and congenital abnormalities, and to prevent the occurrence of diseases such as Sertoli cell tumors in dogs with cryptorchid. Dog castration techniques that can be used are open prescrotal or scrotal castration, closed prescrotal or scrotal castration, perineal castration and scrotal ablation. The open castration technique is preferred in larger dogs because the ligation can be placed directly around the vascular pedicle and provides a safer ligation. Closed castration techniques are preferred over open techniques. This method is usually performed on small or young dogs. Based on the results of open castration studies, it shows a higher complication rate than closed castration. The closed castration technique has the disadvantage that the binding is less secure because the vessel is tied while it is surrounded by the tunica and cremaster muscles attached rather than directly tied.

The Eid al-Adha celebration is a Muslim religious celebration when Muslims are financially capable of sacrificial animals such as cows and goats and then share the meats with the community. However, zoonotic diseases, which can attack humans, become a threat. Therefore, a veterinarian was needed to check whether the meat from 11 cows and 16 goats at Al-Istiqomah mosque was free from zoonotic diseases and safe for consumption by the public. This activity was divided into three stages: antemortem examination, post-mortem examination, and dissemination of knowledge about zoonotic animal diseases. The ante-mortem examination result showed that all animals were eligible for slaughter. However, after post-mortem examination, three livers had to be rejected due to Fasciola sp infestation. This worm could attack humans through uncooked liver. The findings from this post-mortem examination prevented the possibility of 500 heads of families getting liver that contained Fasciola sp.

Published: August 2024

Background and Aims: Skin cancer is a significant public health concern globally. Jordan’s location and high exposure to UV radiation have led to an increase in the incidence rate of skin cancer. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of patients to sunscreen use in one of the major hospitals in Jordan, and identify demographic factors associated with regular sunscreen use.
Methodology: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted at the dermatology clinic of Jordan University Hospital, Amman, Jordan, from February 2, 2023 to March 6, 2023. The study included 397 participants recruited from the clinic’s waiting area. A validated survey questionnaire was used to collect data on demographics, previous skin cancer history, sunscreen allergies, knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to sunscreen use. The data were analyzed using SPSS v. 26. Statistical significance was established at a p-value of <0.05.
Results: The majority of participants were female (67.0%) and aged 18–25 years (53.7%). Only 24.9% of participants reported using sunscreen regularly, while 34.0% reported never using it. Participants with higher education levels and income were more likely to use sunscreen regularly. The main sources of sunscreen recommendations were family and friends (48.1%), followed by dermatologists (32.7%). The most common reason for not using sunscreen was forgetfulness (40.1%).
Conclusion: The study revealed that knowledge and practices related to sunscreen use among Jordanian dermatology patients are insufficient, and that there is a need for increased patient education regarding the importance of sunscreen use.

Authors: TIAN Yong , WANG Zhengtao , SONG Jian , XIE Fuxiang , WANG Hongwei
Published: August 2024

Taking the large storage tank as the cleaning object, a cleaning robot integrating shoveling, crushing, sweeping and dust-absorbing was developed, and its dust-absorbing system was analyzed and optimized. Firstly, Fluent-EDEM gas-solid coupling was utilized to simulate the dust-absorbing system. By analyzing the fluid distribution and particle trajectory, the internal structure of the dust collection box was optimized to reduce the dust particles entering the fan box. Then, by analyzing the structural parameters of the suction nozzle, the influence of the nozzle shoulder angle, nozzle length, and shoulder height on the dust-absorbing effect was explored, and the parameters were determined, so as to reduce the energy loss and increase the flow rate on both sides of the nozzle. Finally, through the dust suction test, different models of nozzles were tested for dust suction, and the wind speed at the nozzle was measured, and the leakage of dust particles on both sides of the nozzle was significantly reduced after optimization, which verified the reliability of the simulation results and provided a theoretical basis for the design of the sweeping robot.

Published: August 2024

Based on the hourly precipitation data and evaporation data of the meteorological in Hongze County from 1959 to 2020, we studied the relationship between extreme precipitation and annual runoff control rate from the perspective of the underlying surface of the Hongze County watershed. We conducted a literature review and statistical analysis using SPSS in this study. From 1959 to 2020, precipitation in the Hongze region varied greatly annually, with the maximum and minimum annual precipitation of 1473.8 and 349.6 mm. The precipitation fluctuated but increased, and the extreme precipitation was concentrated in July to August. The annual average evapotranspiration from 1959 to 2020 was 1165.8 mm with an inter-annual fluctuation and decrease due to the urbanization process. The process affected the local evapotranspiration condition. More evaporation was observed from May to August than from December to January with a difference of 50 mm. The evaporation data coincided with seasonal variation in Hongze County. In determining the control rate of annual total runoff, we considered the inter-annual and annual differences in precipitation. The natural runoff condition and economic cost before urbanization were explored, too. The greater the rain intensity, the earlier the runoff generation time, the shorter the confluence time, and the greater the possibility of floods. In short-duration extreme precipitation, it is necessary to pay attention to its middle period, while for long-duration extreme precipitation, it is necessary to focus on its late period.

The aim of this research is to determine the differences between two types of artificial bait on troll line on catches and to identify the composition of catch types based on bait type. This research was carried out in Tanawangko waters and was carried out from February to March 2023 using the experimental fishing method, where two pancing tonda  each using silk fiber and chicken feather bait were operated simultaneously in one boat for 5 trips which were then analyzed using the t test. The catch during the research was 24 individuals with 3 species, namely with silk fiber bait, 20 individuals were caught consisting of 3 species and using chicken feather bait, 4 individuals were caught consisting of 2 species. The analysis results show that tcount = 1.684 < t table = 2.776; so it accepts H0 and rejects H1. This explains that the use of chicken feather bait is not significantly different from silk fiber as trolling bait for catch results. The conclusion of this research is that using silk fiber bait resulted in more catches than chicken feather bait, but the results of the t test analysis showed that the two were not significantly different and the three species of fish caught were 15 skipjack tuna (Katsuonus pelamis), 7 baby tuna (Thunnus sp.), and 2 lemadang (Coryphaena hippurus).

Buacar y Moretti sobre antiexcepcionalismo, justificación y normatividad
Authors: Borge Bruno
Published: August 2024

En este trabajo, reviso críticamente las posiciones de Buacar y Moretti sobre la justificación y la normatividad de la lógica. Argumento que dependen de un movimiento trascendentalista para dar cuenta de la normatividad de la lógica y que ello tiene consecuencias indeseables, en particular para la posición de Buacar. Propongo una noción revisada de normatividad a fin de sentar las bases para una propuesta alternativa que retoma los lineamientos generales del análisis de Buacar acentuando el componente naturalista de sus ideas.

Di Indonesia, prevalensi kelainan refraksi menempati urutan pertama, meliputi 25% penduduk atau sekitar 55 juta jiwa. Pada bulan Desember 2019, novel coronavirus menyebar dengan cepat di Tiongkok dan seluruh dunia. Kebijakan pembatasan sosial dan karantina wilayah berpotensi membatasi masyarakat dalam melaksanakan aktivitas terutama dalam institusi pendidikan. Tujuan: untuk mengetahui prevalensi jumlah penderita miopia serta hubungannya dengan pembelajaran daring. Metode: menggunakan teknik total sampling dengan metode cross sectional dengan responden sebanyak 162. Pengambilan data dilakukan dari bulan Oktober sampai bulan November 2022. Hasil: didapatkan bahwa responden yang menggunakan gawai dengan durasi < 4 jam dan jarak < 30 cm cenderung tidak mengalami miopia (P>0,05).
