Introduction: Radiotherapy is the one of the main modes of treating oral cancer and in recent days radiation delivery and beam shaping is
evolving with novel methods. Some of the methods of radiation delivery include Three dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3D CRT), Intensity
Modulated Radiotherapy ( IMRT), Image Guided Radiotherapy ( IGRT), stereotactic body radiotherapy and proton beam therapy to name a few.
However these techniques are always associated with some pitfalls such as mucositis, skin reactions, dysphagia and xerostomia which occur in
both acute and chronic manner. Hence there is a continuous necessity to optimize dose distribution to reduce the toxicities and have a positive
impact on the quality of life of the patient.
Aim: To assess and compare the toxicity proles occurring due to radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients undergoing 3D CRT, IMRT and
IGRTmodes.
Materials and Methods: A total of 60 patients with a Kornofsky Performance Scale (KPS) more than 70 were included in the study. Of the 60
patients included in the study 20 were in the 3D CRT group, 20 were in the IMRT group and 20 were in the IGRT group. The patients were assessed
for grade of mucositis and skin reactions in an acute and chronic manner.
Results: The results showed that 3D CRT group demonstrated signicantly more acute and chronic toxicities in relation to mucositis and skin
reactions when compared to IMRT and IGRT. However on comparing the toxicities between IMRT and IGRT groups there were insignicant
differences.
Conclusion: In our study, IMRT and IGRT were associated with a signicantly lower incidence of toxicity in relation to mucositis and skin
reactions and hence they are more tissue sparing and improves the quality of life of the patient.

Authors: Nahatkar Tanay , Singh Bava Surendar , Patil Bhushan , Jain Sangam , Wankhede Ajay , Salve Amol
Published: January 2022

Background: The minimally invasive lateral retroperitoneal transpsoas approach is a new method that was designed to minimize problems related
with standard or minimally invasive anterior or posterior lumbar spine techniques. The current work used magnetic resonance imaging to
determine the anatomic location of the ventral root and retroperitoneal arteries in respect to the vertebral body and to establish the anatomical safe
zones. We examined lumbar spine MRI in 50 individuals retrospectively (L1-L2 to L5-S Method: 1 levels). The ventral root and surrounding major
arteries were identied using axial T1 and T2 scans. Axial MR scans were utilized to determine the anterior-posterior (AP) diameter of the vertebral
endplate, the overlap between the ventral root and the posterior border of the vertebra, and the overlap between the retroperitoneal big vessels and
the anterior edge of the vertebra. The safe zone was then determined. From L1–L2 Results: to L5–S1, the mean AP diameter of the vertebral body
and the overlap of the vertebral body with the nerve roots and retroperitoneal arteries grew gradually. When we examined the extent of overlap of
retroperitoneal arteries with the ventral border of the lower vertebral body endplate, we discovered that the right vascular structures were more
posterior than the left vascular structures. The safe working zone was 81.86 percent of the lower endplate of the sagittal diameter of the vertebral
body at L1–L2, 70.03 percent at L2–L3, 69.32 percent at L3–L4, 50.08 percent at L4–L5, and 17.92 percent at L5–S1 levels. The Conclusion:
retroperitoneal transpsoas method is a less invasive and more efcient alternative to the conventional posterior, open lumbar procedures. It can be
used to treat trauma, degenerative disc disease, adult degenerative scoliosis, spondylosis with instability, spondylolisthesis, lumbar stenosis, and
neighboring segment failure.

INTRODUCTION The most common morbidity in the rst week of life is the jaundice which occurs in 80% of term and 60% of preterm neonates
and is the most often causes readmission after the baby is discharged from the hospital. The treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is
phototherapy. Like any other treatment modality, phototherapy also has side effects of which very few studies were done on electrolyte
disturbances. Hence present study was designed to determine the serum sodium, potassium and chloride changes in neonates receiving
phototherapy for neonatal jaundice.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To study the effect of phototherapy on serum sodium, Potassium and Chloride levels in neonates with neonatal
hyperbilirubinemia.
MATERIALS AND METHODS This Hospital Based Longitudinal Observational Study was done in the Department of Paediatrics at MMIMSR,
Mullana over a period of one and a half year. Serum bilirubin, sodium, Potassium and Chloride levels were measured before initiation of
phototherapy and on termination of phototherapy.
RESULTS The study included 100 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia treated with phototherapy with male: female ratio of 58%:42%.The mean
gestational age was 37.681.63 weeks and birth weight was 2.790.38kgs. The age of onset of phototherapy and duration of phototherapy were
3.802.50 days and 28.627.02 hours respectively. Before phototherapy, the total serum bilirubin, sodium, potassium and chloride levels were
13.87±1.41,140.72±3.45,4.55±0.44 and 106.08±3.1 respectively which decreased to 9.50±1.60,137.45±3.09,4.20±0.46 and 104.52±3.91 with

CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL PROFILE OF RENAL TUMOURS IN EASTERN INDIA: A STUDY FROM TERTIARY CARE ARMED FORCES HOSPITAL
Authors: R Parameswararao , Singh VP , Sanjeev Tandon
Published: January 2022

Aprimary renal tumor comprises a wide spectrum of neoplastic lesions of the kidney with patterns, which are relatively distinct among children and
adults. Primary renal tumors may be benign or malignant. A wide variety of both benign and malignant renal tumors may arise from the different
components of the renal parenchyma, mostly from the tubular epithelium (1,2). With the widespread use of cross sectional imaging modalities the
incidence of renal tumors has been increased throughout the world during the last few decades. Until now, the gold standard treatment for most of
the renal tumors is their surgical removal, either by radical nephrectomy or partial nephrectomy (3).
Incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is 2-3% of all malignancy. Seventh most common tumour in western world. Country to country the
incidence varies and most common in the western part of the world. Incidence of RCC is less in Asian country, particularly in India (4,5). The prole
of these patients has not been studied enough in our country as yet and the data regarding RCC in India is scarce. The data available in our country
either retrospective or inadequately collected. This study will help to understand characteristics of renal tumor in this geographical area and can be
used as source for future reference. The study was conducted among 38 patients of renal mass from the eastern India. In the absence of robust Indian
data on Renal tumours, this study provides baseline information on epidemiology, stage at presentation, and outcomes of RCC at Indian population
compared with the Western population. Though symptomatic tumour still more common in India, asymptomatic tumour detection rate has been
increased due to more health care facility and available imaging modalities.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common inammatory joint disease lesions involving the hips, knees, and other large joints which can lead to
joint deformity and dysfunction [1,2].Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is chronic inammatory arthritis involving which may involve one or more
joints with age of onset less than 16 years.With progressive hip disease, the deformed femoral head causes irregular abrasion of the acetabulum,
secondarily shifting the femoral head inward and in turn triggering varying degrees of the acetabular protrusion, the incidence of which is about
5%.[3,4]THR in such cases provide improvement in function and pain but challenges posed by lack of bone stock, decient medial cup support,
and medialization of the joint centre in those with protrusio acetabuli must be addressed during acetabular reconstruction.

Published: January 2022

Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the tendon sheath is the second most common benign soft tissue tumor of the hand. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
is the investigative tool of choice for both diagnosis and treatment planning. The current standard treatment of choice is excision or amputation of
the involved part as the recurrence rates are very high. Hence, it is necessary that the surgeon ensures complete removal of the tumor and removal of
residual satellite nodules if any. There are many hypotheses proposed regarding the etiology of these lesions, but still the opinions are varied.
Prevalence of Schistosoma bovis in the Nigerian Army Livestock Farms and Ranches, Airport Road Giri, Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria
Authors: Oladele G. O
Published: January 2022

Bovine Schistosomiasis is a chronic debilitating parasitic disease of cattle caused by the species Schistosoma bovis. The present work was designed to investigate the prevalence of Schistosoma species in cattle in Nigerian Army Livestock Farms and Ranches at Airport road Giri, Gwagwalada Area Council, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Nigeria. Faecal samples (n=200) from cattle were collected per rectum, using sterile surgical gloves into sample bottles containing formalin and labeled with the cattles’ tag number. Twenty samples were collected between 8:00 and 10:00am of every Thursday till the required samples were obtained. The fecal samples were brought to the Parasitology laboratory to determine the prevalence of Schistosoma using both floatation and sedimentation techniques. The overall prevalence of Schistosoma infestation among cattle in Nigerian Army Farms and Ranches was 35.5% (71/200). Out of 130 females and 70 males screened, the prevalence of Schistosoma infestation in female and male were 37.7% (n=49/130) and 31.4% (n=22/70) respectively. Out of the 150 fecal samples from cattle aged >1 year (adult) examined, 62 (41.3%) were positive, while only 9 (18%) out of 50 fecal samples from cattle aged <1 year (young) were positive. Out of the four (4) breeds screened, the highest number of cases was recorded in White Fulani breed 16.5% followed by Brahma breed which is 7%. The prevalence in other breeds shows Swiss Brown cross to be 4% while Friesian cross is 8%. Due to its public health importance, there is need for more effort in preventing and controlling the infestation. This could be done through routine application of molluscicide to reduce the snail population. Appropriate anthelminthic and environmental sanitation in the cattle ranch should also be encouraged in addition to public health awareness to mitigate these problems.

Authors: Salisu U.S.
Published: January 2022

The study was conducted to determine the effect of aqueous and methanolic extracts of Cucumis metuliferus fruit on the prevention and cure of Newcastle Disease (NCD) in pullets. Ninety (90) pullets were used for the experiment. The pullets were divided into 9 groups, 4 prophylactics, 4 curative and one control group. For prophylactic groups, aqueous extract of the fruit at a concentration of 2.5 g and 5.0 g/litre of water and methanolic extract of the fruit at 75 and 50 mg/litre were given to the pullets ad-libitum for two weeks and then challenged with Newcastle disease virus kudu 113 strain via intra-ocular route while for curative groups, the pullets were challenged with the virus and then treated with the aqueous and methanolic extracts of the fruits at the same concentrations. The results showed that methanolic extract of C. metuliferus at a concentration of 75 mg/l showed superior prophylactic ability recording lower clinical signs, mortality, postmortem lesions, higher antibody titre and higher white blood cell activity and also exhibited very good therapeutic potential. It was thus suggested that methanolic extract of C. metuliferus at 75 mg/l can be recommended for the control of NCD to farmers and that further studies be conducted to isolate the alkaloids of C. metuliferus responsible for these findings.
Phish: A Novel Hyper-Optimizable Activation Function
Authors: Naveen Philip
Published: January 2022

Deep-learning models estimate values using backpropagation. The activation function within hidden layers is a critical component to minimizing loss in deep neural-networks. Rectified Linear (ReLU) has been the dominant activation function for the past decade. Swish and Mish are newer activation functions that have shown to yield better results than ReLU given specific circumstances. Phish is a novel non-monotonic activation function proposed here. It is a composite function defined as f(x) = xTanH(GELU(x)), where no discontinuities are apparent in the differentiated graph on the domain observed. Four generalized networks were constructed using different activation functions. SoftMax was the output function. Using images from MNIST and CIFAR-10 databanks, these networks were trained to minimize sparse categorical crossentropy. A large-scale cross-validation was simulated using stochastic Markov chains to account for the law of large numbers for the probability values. Statistical tests support the research hypothesis stating Phish could outperform other activation functions in classification. Future experiments would involve testing Phish in unsupervised learning algorithms and comparing it to more activation functions.
A Haploid Wright-Fisher Mutation Model with Three Alleles
Authors: Tyvand Peder A. , Nøland Jonas Kristiansen
Published: January 2022

Mainstream population genetics uses diffusion models with approximative solutions rather than encompassing the exact stochastic process. This practice was necessary due to practical computing limitations for large populations. The present paper develops the exact Markov chain algebra (MCA) for a discrete haploid tri-allelic Wright-Fisher model (TA-WFM) with a full mutation matrix to address this challenge. Nonzero mutations between all three alleles give a tri-allelic model irreducible to previous bi-allelic models. The gamete frequencies for asymptotic equilibrium are calculated analytically. The exact time-dependent Markov model is evaluated numerically and presented concisely in terms of diffusion variables. The convergence with increasing population size to a diffusion limit is demonstrated for the population composition distribution. There will never be exact (irreversible) extinction when there are nonzero mutation rates into each allele. Moreover, there will never be an exact (irreversible) fixation when there are nonzero mutation rates out from each allele. From our general haploid triallelic mutation model, we only present results where there is no exact extinction and no exact fixation. We present some computations for the Markov process in full detail, exposing the behavior near the boundaries for the compositional domains, which are non-singular boundaries according to diffusion theory.
Low-Latency Tracking of Multiple Permanent Magnets
Authors: Taylor Cameron , Abramson Haley , Herr Hugh
Published: January 2022

Magnetic target tracking is a low-cost, portable, and passive method for tracking materials wherein magnets are physically attached or embedded without the need for line of sight. Traditional magnet tracking techniques use optimization algorithms to determine the positions and orientations of permanent magnets from magnetic field measurements. However, such techniques are constrained by high latencies, primarily due to the numerical calculation of the gradient. In this study, we derive the analytic gradient for multiple-magnet tracking and show a dramatic reduction in tracking latency. We design a physical system comprising an array of magnetometers and one or more spherical magnets. To validate the performance of our tracking algorithm, we compare the magnet tracking estimates with state-of-the-art motion capture measurements for each of four distinct magnet sizes. We find comparable position and orientation errors to state-of-the-art magnet tracking, but demonstrate increased maximum bandwidths of 336%, 525%, 635%, and 773% for the simultaneous tracking of 1, 2, 3, and 4 magnets, respectively. We further show that it is possible to extend the analytic gradient to account for disturbance fields, and we demonstrate the simultaneous tracking of 1 to 4 magnets with disturbance compensation. These findings extend the use of magnetic target tracking to high-speed, real-time applications requiring the tracking of one or more targets without the constraint of a fixed magnetometer array. This advancement enables applications such as low-latency augmented and virtual reality interaction, volitional or reflexive control of prostheses and exoskeletons, and simplified multi-degree-of-freedom magnetic levitation.
Lawson-Norm Based Adaptive Filter for Channel Estimation and in-Car Echo Cancellation
Authors: Li Yingsong
Published: January 2022

We proposed a Lawson-norm-based adaptive estimation algorithm within the affine-project theory framework and give a name of Lawson-norm adaptive filter (LNAF) algorithm. The LNAF algorithm is derived, analyzed, and simulated for echo cancellation when background noise is impulsive, which is realized and implemented via using Lawson norm of past errors to take a sliding window on cost function to speed up convergence and achieve robustness for impulsive noises for colored signal. Simulations based on measured data are used for in-car echo cancellation and channel estimation to verify the LNAF algorithm's performance with different inputs, which prove that the LNAF algorithm is superior to the popular AP algorithms under differnt impulsive interferences.

ABSTRAKTulisan ini berupaya menyajikan sebuah penafsiran dengan pendekatan teori hermeneutika dan teologis terhadap studi Islam bagi anak. Dimana studi Islam kini tidak lagi hanya terbatas pada wilayah fikih, kalam, tasawuf, dan filsafat, tetapi juga mulai bersentuhan dengan aneka perspektif dan metodelogi dalam berbagai bidang keilmuan seperti ilmu-ilmu sosial dan ilmu pendekatan, seperti pendekatan hermeneutika dan teologis yang merupakan salah satu metodelogi pendekatan keilmuan yang lahir dari dunia barat. Dengan karakteristik dan sejarah yang berbeda maka akan ada perbedaan, pro dan kontra terhadap hasil dari kedua pendekatan ini.Kajian Islam mengenai anak kini juga menjadi perhatian yang sangat menarik. Karena pada era globalisasi saat ini sangat dibutuhkan studi tentang anak khususnya studi agama (Islam). Dimana agama menjadi kontrol dan pendidikan yang mendasar bagi anak. Pendidikan agama berperan penting dalam pembentukan karakter dan kepribadian yang baik untuk anak. Melihat dari studi agama Islam akan di teliti menurut pendekatan hermeneutic dan pendekatan teologis, sehingga akan lahir pemikiran-pemikiran baru yang tetap menjadi kontrol yaitu agama. Metode dalam penelitian ini yaitu kajian pustaka, dimana informasi dan data-data dikumpulkan dari berbagai sumber seperti buku dan jurnal.Hasil pembahsannya bahwa pendekatan hermeneutic dan teologis studi Islam pada anak merupaka upaya untuk memahami teks, penulis, dan pembaca. Ketiga elemen tersebut membentuk jaring-jaring pemaknaan hermeneutis. Model pembacaan hermeneutika berusaha mencari makna obyektif dari teks. Obyektivitas tersebut tidak dimaknai sebagaimana positivisme, yang menyatakan bahwa apa yang kita pahami merupakan cermin dari realitas yang sebenarnya. Hermeneutika sebagai ilmu menjadi suatu metode atau cara untuk menafsirkan simbol yang berupa teks atau sesuatu yang diperlukan sebagai teks untuk dicari arti dan maknanya, di mana metode hermeneutika ini mensyaratkan adanya kemampuan untuk menafsirkan masa lampau yang tidak dialami, kemudian dibawa ke masa sekarang. Sementara pendekatan teologis memahami agama yang menekankan bentuk formal simbol-simbol keagamaan, mengklaim sebagai agama yang paling benar, yang lainnya salah sehingga memandang bahwa paham orang lain itu keliru, kafir, sesat, dan murtad. Pendekatan teologis normatif dalam memahami agama secara harfiah dapat diartikan sebagai upaya memahami agama dengan menggunakan kerangka ilmu ketuhanan yang bertolak dari suatu suatu keyakinan bahwa wujud empiris dari keagamaan dianggap sebagai yang paling benar dibandingkan dengan yang lainnya.Kata Kunci: Studi Islam, Hermeneutika, Teologi, Pendekatan, Anak

Published: January 2022

The development of social media has changed the way in which tourists consume and communicate their tourism experiences. In particular, the "selfie" facilitates an evolving modern photo album, allowing tourists to share what they consider personally meaningful about their travel experiences.
For many tourists, interaction and engagement with the traditional dress of tourism destinations forms an important part of their experience. The snapping of a selfie while in traditional dress may help a tourist portray the "other," to promote the exotic to their friends and family. As a
relatively new phenomenon, little research has been conducted on the role of selfies in tourism, and tourists' attitudes towards taking selfies while wearing a destination's traditional dress. Therefore, this study aims to first, explore tourists' attitudes towards wearing a traditional dress
of a tourism destination and secondly, to consider their attitude towards taking a selfie while wearing a destination's traditional dress. A survey of 438 Indonesian tourists found a variety of attitudinal responses, which were largely positive, towards the wearing of traditional dress. It
includes dimensions of tribute, enjoyment/excitement, a negative opinion towards wearing a local traditional dress, and attraction. Furthermore, taking a selfie while wearing a local traditional dress contains dimensions of narcissism, a negative opinion towards selfies, privacy concerns,
in-group behavior, impression management, and sharing.

The advances in the field of power systems, distribution utilities ordinance the associated non-linear advance loads compliance with the stern power quality (PQ) enhances the reliableness of the delivery system to provide demands of censorious loads and subtle automation systems. Hurdles for sustaining quality power are linked with the continuation of elemental VAR power necessities of loads; voltage dips and swells at the point of common coupling (PCC) due to sudden switching of large industrial loads as well as VAR power indemnifying capacitors and harmonic distortions due to voltage and/or current along with non-linear loads. The harmonic distortions are pertained to be the major drawback the root cause of the PQ issues also the fluctuating pattern by loads causes degradation of voltage waveform which has been presented with variable loads. Hence, custom power device (CPD) materialized as Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) settles the issue. Intention of the work is to bring spontaneity in both the voltage and current waveform with the Sinusoidal current control strategy (SCCS), a time dominion strategy founded over instantaneous pq-theory executed with MATLAB 2016a. The results are well analyzed with proper explanation for selection of the said strategy for the UPQC. As an elementary and inherent strategy, it has titanic prospects further to be applied under photo-voltaic environment associated with a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (FC) in a hybrid grid integrated (HGI) system.
Analysis of Pseudo-spectral Methods Used for Numerical Simulations of Turbulence

Published: January 2022

Events in turbulent flows computed by direct numerical simulation (DNS) are often calibrated with properties based on homogeneous isotropic turbulence, advanced by Kolmogorov, and given in Turbulence, U. Frisch, Cambridge Univ. Press, UK (1995). However, these computational procedures are not calibrated using numerical analyses in order to assess their strengths and weaknesses for DNS. This is with the exception in "A critical assessment of simulations for transitional and turbulence flows- Sengupta, T.K., In Proc. of IUTAM Symp. on Advances in Computation, Modeling and Control of Transitional and Turbulent Flows, 491-532, (eds. Sengupta, Lele, Sreenivasan, Davidson), WSPC, Singapore (2016)", where such a calibration has been advocated for numerical schemes using global spectral analysis (GSA) for the convection equation. In recent times, due to growing computing power, simulations have been reported using pseudo-spectral methods, with spatial discretization performed in Fourier spectral space and time-integration by multi-stage Runge-Kutta (RK) methods. Here, we perform GSA of Fourier spectral methods for the first time with RK2 and other multistage Runge-Kutta methods using the model linear convection and convection-diffusion equations. With the help of GSA, various sources of numerical errors are quantified. The major limitations of the RK2-Fourier spectral method are demonstrated for DNS and alternate choices are presented. We specify optimal parameters to achieve the best possible accuracy for simulations. There is a one-to-one correspondence of numerical solutions obtained by linear convection-diffusion equation and nonlinear Navier-Stokes equation with respect to numerical parameters. This enables us to investigate the capabilities of the numerical methods for DNS.

Authors: Méndez Moreno Juan Pablo
Published: January 2022

La muerte de la fotografía se argumenta a través de su paso evolutivo. Nôth, Berger, Dubois entre otros, asoman en sus tesis la decadencia debido al uso de aparatos de realidad virtual y realidad aumentada, gadgets novedosos con fusión de ilustraciones, fotogramas, audio, interacciones y reacciones en un elemento enriquecido. La tesis sustenta tres tiempos: momentos de su surgimiento, avances tecnológicos y sustitución de medios tradicionales por medios inmersivos. La metodología monográfica posibilita la alineación conceptual concluyendo que los avances tecnológicos nos conducen a una representación personal que se define por alteraciones de la realidad física construyendo nuevas experiencias.
