Published: April 2023

Manual sterilization processes can be time-consuming and labour intensive. Sterilizing equipment and surfaces manually can take a lot of time and effort, especially if the warehouse is large and there are many items to sterilize. Manual sterilization processes can be dangerous if proper safety measures are not taken. For example, workers may be exposed to harsh chemicals can cause burning of the eyes, nose, throat and respiratory tract and can result in blindness and lung damage due to the presence of hypochlorite and quaternary ammonia compounds in the chemicals used for sterilization process. This project presents a novel approach for the sterilization of surfaces using a line follower robot with Bluetooth control, employing a mopping method. The robot is designed to navigate a pre-determined path using a IR sensor and sterilize the surface by mopping it with a disinfectant solution. The robot is equipped with a Bluetooth module that allows it to be controlled remotely using a mobile application. Overall, line follower robots offer a safe, efficient, and consistent solution for the sterilization process, making them an ideal choice for various industries, including healthcare, food processing, and warehousing.

Published: April 2023

The liver is the largest internal organ of the human body. It is responsible for conversion of food intake into useful nutrients and also helps to store them. It is responsible for conversion of toxic molecules into harmless particles. But recent studies report significant deaths due to liver diseases. It is mainly due to unhealthy diet habits and unhealthy routine of people. In the race of doing work people are ignoring their health resulting in abnormal health and affecting the liver significantly. Therefore prediction of liver disease with high accuracy and speed is an important concern. The liver tissues undergo deformation or abnormalities comparatively slower than other body tissues, so detection becomes more difficult. In recent decades, the use of automatic decision making systems and tools has found a significant role in the medical field. As the medical field deals with human life, by using the knowledge of machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and big data we can help in rapid and appropriate treatment and cure. This will help physicians in making the correct decision at the right moment and appropriate procedure. In this regard, this study provides an extensive review of the progress of applying Artificial Intelligence in forecasting and detection liver diseases and then summarizes related limitations of the studies followed by future research.

FIRST OCCURRENCE OF THE EXOTIC GASTROPOD Melanoides tuberculata IN THE STATE OF AMAPÁ (BRAZILIAN AMAZON REGION)
Authors: Chagas Rafael , Barros Mara , Silva Thibério , Santos Wagner
Published: April 2023

This study reports the first occurrence of the invasive gastropod Melanoides tuberculata (Müller, 1774) in the state of Amapá. M. tuberculata was first detected in a lake in Praça Floriano Peixoto, a city park located in Macapá, the state capital, on May 2, 2022. The lake has a substantial amount of foliage on the banks and relatively turbid water (with a green tint). This environmental characteristic is similar to that found in existing literature. As a consequence of this detection, it can be surmised that M. tuberculata is spreading through the Amazon region – thus far, its presence was restricted to the states of Pará, Mato Grosso, and Tocantins. Due to the potential ecological and economic impact, it is considered necessary to monitor the population density of M. tuberculata in Amapá, as well as to investigate possible mitigation measures, such as the introduction of a native fish that is capable of feeding itself on this invasive species.

Published: April 2023

Translations had a significant role both in the popularization of Eastern Armenian and the establishment of literary and cultural ties between the Armenian community and the British. The purpose was to further the international outlook, understanding and emotional experience of foreign environments and cultures, on the one hand, next was to make more literature available to children and to contribute to the development of the readers’ set of values.

It should be noted that literary relations first of all contributed to the emergence of bilingual dictionaries. Shmavonian published an English-Armenian dictionary which was intended “for the entertainment of studious children” (Mkhitaryan 2016:81).

19th century was marked by social political changes and created conditions for the development of new Armenian literature which was so important for shaping the mind set and behavior of the Armenian children. Thus, Armenian translators translated literature in connection with social and economic forces.

The Armenian printing business in India operated for a century and published almost 200 books, booklets and more than ten periodicals. In this article some translations published in Azdarar (The Intelligencer, 1794, Madras), Azgaser (the Patriot, 1845, Calcutta), Azgaser Araratian (Patriot Araratian, 1848. Calcutta), and Hayeli Kalkatian (Mirror of Calcutta, 1820, Calcutta) are examined.

Challenge for the Surgeon: Acute Appendicitis and Hostile Abdomen
Authors:   General Surgery Department, UMAE Hospital de Especialidades No. 71 CMN Torreón, IMSS, Hernández Jesús Ricardo Rivera
Published: April 2023

Introduction: Urgent medical care and specific therapy are needed for illnesses like acute appendicitis and hostile abdomen. A frequent condition that affects people of all ages, acute appendicitis is more prevalent in young people of European descent. The major factor causing acute appendix inflammation is obstruction of the appendix's lumen. Abdominal infection, acute appendicitis, acute pancreatitis, and peritonitis are just a few of the dangerous conditions that might be indicated by a hostile abdomen. Theoretically, acute appendicitis is an immediate inflammation of the appendix that causes abdominal discomfort and, if untreated, can lead to significant consequences. Acute appendicitis is often treated with surgery to remove the appendix. Abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, fever, and chills are among the symptoms. Although it can afflict persons of various ages, acute appendicitis is most frequently experienced by young people of European descent. With a frequency of about 7% worldwide, acute appendicitis epidemiology is a subject of much research. A hostile abdomen is a condition that can be a symptom of a number of dangerous illnesses, including abdominal sepsis, acute appendicitis, acute pancreatitis, and peritonitis. Abdominal discomfort, stiffness, bloating, and inflammation-related symptoms are some of the symptoms. It takes a thorough analysis, including physical exams and imaging tests, to diagnose a hostile abdomen. Depending on the underlying reason, the hostile abdomen may be treated with surgery, antibiotics, or other medical procedures. Discussion: If left untreated, illnesses like acute appendicitis and hostile abdomen can lead to major problems. In order to appropriately detect and diagnose their patients, clinicians must be knowledgeable about these disorders. Although acute appendicitis cannot be prevented, major complications can be avoided with early management. For optimal care of the hostile abdomen and diagnosis of the underlying etiology, a multidisciplinary approach is also required. Abdominal hostility and acute appendicitis are two significant illnesses that need prompt medical care, a precise diagnosis, and effective treatment. A frequent condition that affects people of all ages, acute appendicitis is more prevalent in young people of European descent. An hostile abdomen is a symptom indicating a wide range of dangerous illnesses.

Published: April 2023

The patient's life and capacity to carry out everyday tasks may be significantly impacted by traumatic phalange amputation. Motor vehicle collisions and occupational exposure are risk factors for traumatic phalange amputation. To maximize the preservation of the severed component and reduce complications, proper care and treatment of traumatic phalange amputation are essential. The successful reimplantation of the severed component using the PA approach has been demonstrated. Traumatic phalange amputation treatment options include surgical repair and reperfusion therapy. Yet, time is of the importance for a successful course of therapy, therefore prompt medical attention is essential. For the sake of patient safety and occupational health care, traumatic phalange amputation prevention is crucial. Traumatic injuries can be prevented through the use of personal protective equipment and training in occupational safety. As traumatic phalange amputation can have a significant impact on the function and appearance of the affected limb, which can affect the patient's ability to perform daily activities and self-esteem, it is important to provide a comprehensive approach to the patient's care that includes psychological and emotional support. In general, traumatic phalange amputation may be effectively managed and treated, which can greatly enhance the patient's quality of life and lessen the effects of the injury.

Buschke-Lowenstein tumor is a benign lesion of the skin and mucosa that occurs most commonly in the genital and perianal region of sexually active men and women. It is associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) and is treated with surgery in most cases. In addition, patients with immunodeficiency have a higher incidence of TBL. The initial clinical evaluation should include a detailed history, a careful physical examination, and an assessment of risk factors, including sexual activity, immunosuppression, and HPV exposure. The diagnosis of TBL is based on clinical presentation, histopathology and HPV detection. Histopathologic examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis of TBL and to rule out other similar conditions. In addition, HPV detection is important to establish the risk of progression to malignant lesions and guide the management of TBL.

Aim: A study titled “knowledge and practice regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children among mothers of underfive children” is a descriptive study conducted on 300 mothers of underfive children admitted in pediatric medical wards of Sree Avittam Thirunal Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram. Objectives: The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge of mothers of underfive children regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children, to assess the practice of mothers of underfive children regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children, to find out the correlation between knowledge and practice of mothers of underfive children regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children, to determine the association between knowledge of mothers of underfive children regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children and selected socio demographic variables, to determine the association between practice of mothers of underfive children regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children and selected socio demographic variables and to prepare a module regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children. Materials and Methods: The theoretical framework of the study was based on Nola J. Pender’s Health Promotion Model. Data regarding mother’s knowledge were assessed using questionnaire and practice through rating scale. Results: The study revealed that of the 300 mothers, 51% mothers had overall good knowledge, 41.3% had average knowledge and 7.7% had poor knowledge regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children. Of the 300 mothers, 82.3% had good practice and 17.7% had average practice regarding prevention of COVID-19 in children. Conclusion: It was observed in the study that there was a weak positive correlation between knowledge and practice (r= 0.265, p< 0.01) and there was a significant association between knowledge of mothers and sociodemographic variables such as age, educational qualification, occupation and income of mother. It was also found that there was a significant association between practice of mothers and educational qualification of mother. The study findings inferred that, even though majority of mothers are following good practices, they lack scientific knowledge regarding preventive practices.

Authors: Harris Dillon , Cardaci Thomas , Cintineo Harry , Pham Richard , Dunsmore Kristen , Funderburk LesLee , Machek Steven
Published: April 2023

Purpose: Wrist wraps are regularly incorporated by competitive powerlifters, but several product-specific variations may influence any potential ergogenic benefits. In addition, the prevalence of athletic wrist wrap use is hitherto undescribed. Methods: Seventy actively competing powerlifters (n=70; 27±6y) who competed in the last two years were randomly recruited at sanctioned meets, whereby wrist wrap use descriptive data (wrap style [F or S], wrap length, and events used), wrap tightness (assessed via pulse oximeter-detected oxygen saturation (SpO2) and subjective discomfort [Borg CR10+]), as well as post-meet bench press one repetition maximum (1RM) were collected. Wrist wrap use prevalence data (wrap style, wrap length, and events used) were compared across TX, NC/SC, and CA regions, along with any potential correlations between both region-collapsed wrapped SpO2 and bench press. Finally, predictors of bench press 1RM (weight [kg], age [y], stiff wrap, wrap length, wrapped discomfort [WCR10+], and WSpO2) were assessed using linear regression, whereby all aforementioned statistical analyses were set at a significance level of p<.05. Results: Analyses failed to detect any significant regional differences in wrap style, length, or events used (p>0.05). Moreover, linear regression analysis revealed a significant effect (r2= 0.851, p = 0.02) where weight solely predicted bench press 1RM (p = 0.0433). Conclusions: Although we failed to detect any significant wrist wrap relationships, actively competing powerlifters nonetheless prominently utilize wraps across the regions assessed. Therefore, the potential for wrist wraps to augment bench press performance warrants further elucidation in a controlled, standardized investigation.

Introduction: Seacoast areas and small islands have strategic meaning in building the nation and prospering its people. This is because of the wealth of natural resources contained in this region, both biological and non-biological. However, this wealth of natural resources has not been utilized optimally, which is partly due to sectoral egos between government agencies.Purposes of the Research: To determine the impact of abrasion from the activities of fast boats with great power that cause large waves and result in an abrasion on the coast.Methods of the Research: The method used in this study is normative-juridical, which focuses on the main law by examining theories, concepts, legal principles, and laws and regulations related to this research.Results of the Research: Abrasion is the process of releasing the energy behind the waves towards the land, hitting the coastal areas, then washing away "soil debris" along the coastal slopes, and finally being deposited in the sea. The greater the wave strength, the more abrasion occurs and the more "soil debris" is washed away. The process of eroding the beach caused by the destructive power of sea waves and ocean currents is known as abrasion. Beach erosion is another term for abrasion. Shoreline damage due to abrasion is influenced by natural phenomena and human actions. Human actions that encourage abrasion include taking stones or sand from the coast or rivers as building materials. In addition, the felling of trees in coastal forests or mangrove forests spurs faster coastal abrasion. However, the process of erosion due to the waves of fast boats is also very much felt in coastal communities.

The conflict that occurred gave fear and a feeling of insecurity for the community. In essence, conflict cannot be separated from acts of violence and can cause material and psychological losses. Violence that occurs in armed conflicts usually does not only happen to men but also occurs to women. Sexual violence in armed conflicts in humanitarian law refers more to acts of attacking women's reputation for honor. The presence of human rights instruments must be a guideline for the protection of women's rights so that they are no longer victims of violence. In addition, women must also be given the opportunity to participate in conflict resolution.

Introduction: The war in Ukraine caused Ukrainian refugees, including children, to be forced to leave their homes to seek protection in areas that were still safe within the country of Ukraine as Internally Displaced Persons or IDPs.Purposes of the Research:  This study aims to find out how the concept of legal protection for children who become refugees as a result of armed conflict and how the implementation of legal protection for children who become internally displaced persons in Ukraine.Results of the Research: The concept of humanitarian intervention to protect child refugees is the responsibility of the state as the national authority of Ukraine. but the conditions of war make a country unable to carry out its responsibilities as well as possible to protect internally displaced children as victims of war in their country. Although without intending to ignore the rights of child refugees, a country in a war situation will certainly place more strategic interests on military defense as its top priority, rather than other affairs and interests. the lack of proper livelihood and education for child refugees in Ukraine is one of the proofs showing that the Ukrainian state has not been successful as the main responsibility for protecting child refugees in the country. Therefore, the main responsibility cannot only be placed solely on the national authorities of the Ukrainian state, but must be the responsibility of all nations in the name of humanity, as is the case with international refugees who receive international protection. Children are a vulnerable group, very different from adult refugees. They need special attention so that they require more or different protection and handling measures because of their age. The best principle for the child (best interest of the child) must be the basis of his protection.
