Published: December 2023

This paper presents a comprehensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of air/water flow through a discharge valve, focusing on four different seat–valve distances and three adjustment nozzle positions. The study investigates the velocity distribution, pressure profiles, tangential stresses, and turbulent kinetic energy within the valve and analyzes its performance under various operating conditions. Notably, peak velocities of 3210 m/s were observed between the valve seat and valve, with significant variations for different nozzle positions. Extreme pressure values centered on the valve plate, reaching 4.3 MPa. Tangential stresses were highest on the chamfered plate surface and varied on the seat, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) exhibited randomness. This study provides valuable information for enhancing the valve’s efficiency in a wide range of industrial applications.

Published: December 2023

Using a trace polychlorinated-ρ-dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) stabilizing generator, an experimental study related to the influence of temperature (150, 165, and 180 °C) and activated carbon (AC) dosage (0.10, 0.15, and 0.20 g) on the adsorption effect of gas-phase PCDD/Fs via coal-based AC was conducted. Increasing the AC dosage is the most efficient method to improve the PCDD/Fs adsorption efficiency from 65.8% (0.10 g) to 93.0% (0.20 g) at 150 °C in an exponential trend. Both the polychlorinated-ρ-dibenzodioxins (PCDD)/polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF) ratio and the Cl-PCDD/Fs value showed positive correlations, with the AC dosage under the same temperature. Increasing adsorption temperature declined the adsorption capacity of AC, resulting in the exponentially decreased average I-TEQ value adsorbed per gram of AC, from 131.3 ng TEQ/Nm3 (150 °C) to 55.9 ng TEQ/Nm3 (180 °C). The coal-based AC used in this study preferred to adsorb lower chlorinated PCDD/Fs, tetrachlorianted dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofurans (TCDD/Fs), and pentachlorianted dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofurans (PeCDD/Fs) than highly chlorinated PCDD/Fs, heptachlorianted dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofurans (HpCDD/Fs), hexachlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofurans (HxCDD/Fs), and octachlorianted dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofurans (OCDD/Fs), which was aggravated by the increasing temperature. The characterization of the surface properties of AC revealed that slight oxidation occurred on the AC surface during the adsorption process, introducing oxygen to the competitive adsorption. In addition, it was found in this study that an increased temperature led to a higher content of hydrophilic carboxyl and anhydride groups and weakened π-π interactions, which were also partly responsible for the negative impact of the increasing temperature on the AC adsorption capacity. The results of this study can contribute to the operation optimization for controlling PCDD/F emissions from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI).
The Search for Originality within Established Boundaries—Rereading Najm al-Dīn al-Ṭūfī (d. 716/1316) on Public Interest (maṣlaḥa) and the Purpose of the Law
Authors: Kurnaz Serdar
Published: December 2023

With the arrival of the twentieth century, in their legal theory, Muslim scholars began emphasizing public interest (maṣlaḥa) and the objectives (maqāṣid) of the Sharia. This stood often in contrast to the standards of traditional legal theory. To overcome this gap, scholars searched for concepts of premodern scholars, interpreted them in a way that allowed focusing on abstract categories like maṣlaḥa. An often-quoted figure in this regard is Najm al-Dīn al-Ṭūfī (d. 716/1316). In his hadith commentary entitled al-Taʿyīn, al-Ṭūfī developed a legal framework in which he gave precedence to maṣlaḥa over the Quran, Sunna, and Consensus in cases where there are conflicts between these sources concerning the ruling for a given matter. Many contemporary scholars interpret al-Ṭūfī’s concept from a modern perspective. This approach either leads to overemphasizing al-Ṭūfī’s theory or rejecting it entirely. The present study will analyze al-Ṭūfī’s theory of maṣlaḥa within the established premodern epistemological and hermeneutical boundaries that al-Ṭūfī himself accepted. In doing so, it will locate al-Ṭūfī’s conception of maṣlaḥa in its historical context and in relation to al-Ṭūfī’s biography. The study will show that al-Ṭūfī’s theory, regardless of its modern reception, and with all its pitfalls, is an original attempt to find new ways for deriving norms within the boundaries of a well-established legal theory and in a specific historical context.

Authors: Zhang Baoyi , Su Yingcai , Shah Syed Yasir Ali , Wang Lifang
Published: December 2023

Research on soil heavy metal(loid) pollution and health risk assessment is extensive, but a notable gap exists in systematically examining uncertainty in this process. We employ the Nemerow index, the health risk assessment model, and the geographic detector model (GDM) to analyze soil heavy metal(loid) pollution, assess health risks, and identify driving factors in Hunan Province, China. Furthermore, the Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) method is utilized to quantitatively evaluate the uncertainties associated with the sampling point positions, model parameters, and classification boundaries of the driving factors in these processes. The experimental findings reveal the following key insights: (1) Regions with high levels of heavy metal(loid) pollution, accompanied by low uncertainty, are identified in Chenzhou and Hengyang Cities in Hunan Province. (2) Arsenic (As) and chromium (Cr) are identified as the primary contributors to health risks. (3) The GDM results highlight strong nonlinear enhanced interactions among lithology and other factors. (4) The input GDM factors, such as temperature, river distance, and gross domestic product (GDP), show high uncertainty on the influencing degree of soil heavy metal(loid) pollution. This study thoroughly assesses high heavy metal(loid) pollution in Hunan Province, China, emphasizing uncertainty and offering a scientific foundation for land management and pollution remediation.

Published: December 2023

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs), found as environmental contaminants, have been related to endometriosis disease. In this context, the peritoneal fluid (PF) matrix has been poorly studied despite its importance. PF is the environment in which endometriotic lesions reside and communicate with surrounding tissues including tissues and nerve cells. In this work, our investigation group reports the special case of a peritoneal endometriosis patient presenting elevated lead, nickel, and bismuth levels in PF. This patient reported following a vegetarian diet and no toxic habits or occupational exposure. In conclusion, the elevated levels of PTEs found may result from a vegetarian diet or an unidentified environmental exposure source. This report provides new insights regarding the possible etiology of endometriosis disease and potential biomarkers for its diagnosis in early stages, although additional research is needed.

Authors: Andrade Vanda Lopes , Ribeiro Iolanda , dos Santos A. P. Marreilha , Aschner Michael , Mateus Maria Luisa
Published: December 2023

Nowadays, there is an increased consumption of plant-based protein beverages like soy beverages (SBs) as substitutes for cow milk (CM). Both accumulate toxic metals like lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and manganese (Mn), which, although essential, are neurotoxic at high levels. Metals can also perturb the normal development of children. This work aimed to evaluate these metal concentrations in CM and SB purchased on the Portuguese market. After validation of the method, linearity of calibration curves, work range, detection and quantification limits, and selectivity, metals were determined in 14 CM and 14 SB brands using atomic absorption spectrometry. The values were compared between CM and SB and with permissible limit values. Soy beverages had significantly (p < 0.05) higher concentrations of Cd (5.6 ± 4.2 µg/L) and Mn (117.4 ± 30.3) µg/L) than CM (2.15 ± 1.84 µg/L and 5.93 ± 1.21 µg/L, respectively); the Pb concentrations in CM (19.3 ± 12.1 µg/L) were not significantly (p > 0.05) higher than in SB (13.4 ± 9.6 µg/L). These values were similar to other studies and close to but under permissible limit values. Nevertheless, due to the toxicity and bioaccumulation of metals, the fact that these foods are routinely ingested by all ages, mainly children, and represent key ingredients in many processed foods, including baby foods, we suggest strict surveying of metal levels in CM and SBs.

Published: December 2023

Anaplastic glioma is a rare disease with an unfavorable prognosis. Currently, guidelines do not provide clear recommendations for the optimal treatment of patients with anaplastic glioma, necessitating the use of individual case series to guide clinical decisionmaking. Therefore, this study aimed to review the clinical management of anaplastic gliomas, including long-term follow-up (catamnesis) and complications. Using a retrospective approach, we analyzed patients with anaplastic glioma who were treated in our institution, either with or without concomitant chemotherapy, from early 2000 until 2021. Overall survival and progressionfree survival were calculated from the time of diagnosis until death and from the initiation of radiation therapy until the detection of disease progression through MRI. Our findings indicate that the combination of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy yielded the maximum benefit in the treatment of anaplastic glioma. However, managing this aggressive tumor remains challenging, despite continuous advancements in therapeutic options. Optimal management necessitates a multidisciplinary approach and a comprehensive understanding of potential complications arising from both the disease itself and its treatment.

Primary dysmenorrhea is the most urgent and socially significant problem at present. Every year the number of girls and women of reproductive age who suffer from this disease is steadily increasing. This is primarily due to the fact that women do not visit specialized doctors when a vivid clinical picture of this pathology appears. This study presents the information from the most relevant literature sources in order to demonstrate the common risk factors for this disease, the main pathophysiological mechanisms of its occurrence, as well as possible ways of non-medication therapy for primary dysmenorrhea, due to the fact that this disease should be approached comprehensively, involving other specialists, such as neurologists, physiotherapists, and specialists in therapeutic exercise, in addition to gynecologists. In this regard, the review presents the most relevant methods available at the moment that can alleviate the clinical manifestations of primary dysmenorrhea. These methods include moxibustion together with acupuncture, percutaneous electrical neurostimulation, kinesio taping, auricular acupressure, aromatherapy, and specially selected physical exercises. These techniques are considered non-invasive, non-pharmacological, easy to use, and most importantly, safe and effective in the treatment of menstrual pain.

Primary brain malignancies are among the 17 most common tumor types worldwide, and about 77 % of them are glial tumors. An integrated approach to the treatment of these pathologies, including total resection of tumor tissue and postoperative chemotherapy and radiation therapy, is aimed at prolonging the patient’s life as much as possible. However, even when using the «gold standard» in treatment, the average life expectancy of patients with glioblastoma is 14.6 months, and of patients with diffuse astrocytoma — 50.5 months. The use of selective methods of influencing tumor cells, including photodynamic therapy, is a current trend in neuro-oncology. Several controlled studies have demonstrated a statistically significant effect of photodynamic therapy in increasing the life expectancy of patients with high-grade gliomas compared with conventional treatment. This review is devoted to the analysis of the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy and fluorescence-guided resection in the treatment of high-grade glial tumors for further search for ways to improve these treatment methods in order to enhance the radicality of tumor removal and increase the duration and quality of life of patients.

Intellectual function of a productive social character
Authors: Moskalets Viktor , Karpiuk Yulia
Published: December 2023

The humanistic-psychological aspect of the problem of the totalitarianism psychological basis, in particular racism, is the formation of resistance to totalitarian ideas among the citizens of those states that have chosen the path of social progress. It is shown that this basis is formed by conscious and unconscious conformists and individuals who are unable to understand socio-political and socio-economic realities on their own due to a low IQ level. Thus, it has been proven that the formation of psychological resistance to totalitarian ideas should be based not on the development of the intellect, but on character education. If intelligence is not only the IQ level, but also a derivative of a person’s independence and courage, and stupidity and dullness – from fear and subordination, then what is needed is not an increase in “intelligence”, but the education of a productive social character of citizens, which is characterized by independence, persistence, love of life in all its healthy and beautiful manifestations. Therefore, the intellectual function of a productive social character is its constant focus on solving socio-political tasks, solving social problems from the standpoint of humanistic spiritual values. The primary condition of formation of such a character is the development of the ability to love, which is born in the process of communication with a child, saturated with generous manifestations of sincere love, from its birth. Then there is a full-fledged gaming activity (“fair game”). Satisfaction the benevolent self-regulation in such a game corresponds to the emotion-motivational center of decency as an essential component of a virtuous social character, therefore, which accelerates its development. he age-related transition of the leading developmental function from communication to play does not reduce the power of sincere love for a child in terms of enriching his biophilia. A sufficient condition for a child’s full-fledged development is his cognitive activity, which requires significant mental and volitional efforts, which are most effectively motivated by the curiosity of the learning process. Students should be primarily got interested by the content of the subjects of the artistic-aesthetic cycle, because a full-fledged artistic-aesthetic activity is interesting, exciting, creative, and because their main task is precisely the education of a spiritual orientation of a personality. Self-actualization is a person’s work on himself, which powerfully develops biophilia. Personalities who are self-actualized love their work, enjoy their professional competence and self-realization, which is a significant component of biophilia. A set of self traits is developed in them, that perfectly correspond to a productive social character.

Reverse transcription-real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is currently the leading laboratory diagnostic tool for COVID-19. With the help of RT-PCR-RT, diagnostics is carried out at the early stages of the development of the disease. The studied clinical samples, as a rule, are swabs from the pharynx and nasopharynx. The aim of the work is to identify and analyze the factors that contribute to false negative results when diagnosing COVID-19 by RT-PCR-RT. It is shown in the article, that the analytical sensitivity of the real-time RT-PCR method is not the main factor in assessing the possibility of obtaining false negative results. The paper considers the effect of drinking hot drinks (tea, coffee), alcohol and smoking (immediately before sampling) on the results of the analysis of swabs from the pharynx and nasopharynx by RT-PCR RT. It was found that the intake of hot drinks before sampling (the probability of obtaining a false negative result is at least 80%) influences most of all on the possibility of obtaining a false negative result in RT-PCR-RT in swabs from the pharynx. The use of small doses of alcohol (0.25–0.33 g of ethanol per 1 kg of body weight) has a lesser effect. Smoking immediately prior to sample collection does not lead to a false negative result in real-time RT-PCR. None of the considered influences affects the possibility of obtaining false negative results in the analysis of swabs from the nasopharynx. Recommendations were made on the need for simultaneous examination of both throat swabs and nasopharyngeal swabs in the ongoing diagnosis of COVID-19.

Published: December 2023

Plant toxins – ricin and abrin, obtained in a purified form from the beans of the castor bean and Abrus precatorius respectively, are considered by Western experts as potential damaging agents of a biological nature. The purpose of this work is to consider the danger of using ricin and abrin as agents of biological terrorism, as well as to assess the existing approaches and means for identifying these toxins, treating the intoxication caused by them, as well as the level of development of vaccine preparations. Both toxins have a similar molecular structure and mechanism of action. They consist of two subunits – A and B, resistant to high temperatures and extreme pH values. The mechanism of their damaging action is based on irreversible inhibition of the process of protein synthesis. The LD50 of ricin for humans, according to various sources, is 3 µg/kg for inhalation and intravenous intake, 22–25 µg/kg for enteral intake, and about 500 µg/kg for subcutaneous intake. Abrin is more toxic than ricin, with an LD50 for humans ranging from 0.1 µg/kg to 1 µg/kg depending on the route of entry. In case of enteral poisoning with ricin and abrin, the victims develop symptoms of gastroenteritis within a few hours: nausea, vomiting and pain in the abdominal cavity and chest, diarrhea. Bleeding from various parts of the gastrointestinal tract may be present. In future, general intoxication symptoms (headache, weakness, fever) and symptoms of multiple organ damage (acute renal failure and acute liver failure) develop. In the terminal stage, symptoms of vascular shock and vascular collapse are expressed. Death usually occurs on the third day or later. Cases of the use of ricin and abrin for criminal and terrorist purposes are described in the article. The main approaches and modern means of indication, means of treating ricin and abrine intoxication, as well as the state of development of vaccine preparations are shown. The given data show that the danger of these toxins as damaging agents is underestimated in Russia. It is necessary to develop diagnostic test systems that allow early detection of intoxication with plant toxins in the affected and the toxins themselves on environmental objects, as well as specific means for the treatment and prevention of acute poisoning with ricin and abrin.

Background: The use of pesticides in agriculture has been perceived as beneficial for increasing production. Pesticides are essential material used to protect crops and agricultural products, livestock, and fish from damage caused by various pests.

Objective: This research aims to determine the relationship between length of work, work period, and the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) with blood cholinesterase levels in pesticide sprayers among farmers in Modoinding Subdistrict.

Method: This study is of an analytical with a cross-sectional study design. The study population consists of pesticide sprayers among farmers in Modoinding Subdistrict. The research sample was determined using cluster random sampling, where samples were taken from three villages.. From each village, 20 pesticide sprayers were randomly selected, resulting in a total sample size of 60 individuals. Data analysis using logistic regretion to assess the relationships between variables.

Results: The research findings indicate that the majority (87%) of pesticide sprayers are above 20 years of age, and all respondents have a work period of more than 3 (three) years. This suggests that pesticide sprayers have been in contact with pesticides for an extended period. The use of PPE is still not a priority for these workers. All respondents (100%) handle pesticide-containing substances (herbicides, insecticides, fungicides) without using PPE, especially gloves and masks. During spraying, 100% of the respondents wear long-sleeved clothing, long pants, and hats, with 16% using masks. This situation indicates a high risk of pesticide poisoning among these farmers. The results of the blood cholinesterase level relationship test with work period show significant values (p=0.012), as do the length of service (p=0.00) and the use of PPE (p=0.000).

Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between length of work, work period, and the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) with blood cholinesterase levels among vegetable farmers in Modoinding Subdistrict, South Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi.

Published: December 2023

Wind forces and their impact on the structural integrity of roofs and walls are pivotal considerations in architectural and engineering design. This study discusses the effect of wind load on gable roof buildings with varying slopes. Gable roof structures find extensive application in industrial construction projects. Based on wind tunnels with rigid models, wind pressure distributions on gable roof buildings with different aspect ratios were measured simultaneously. Special attention is required for the safe design of the building. Information regarding the wind pressure coefficients on buildings is available in codes of practices of various countries dealing with wind loads; however, such information is very limited. The present study will examine the suitability of four building models with roof angles of 10º, 15º, 20º, and 25º and will be analyzed using IS 875 (Part 3), and various forces will be calculated. Then, the same buildings will be modeled using STAADPro/SAP2000, and the comparison of the analysis will be made. Further, a building situated at various slopes on a hill will be modeled using STAAD-Pro/SAP2000, and the variation of Wind Forces along the slope will be studied. The expected results of this study will be finding out the most critical slope of a gable roof on a building and reducing the effect of wind forces on it. Furthermore, the most savior location of a building along the hill slope will be investigated, and the ways to reduce the effect of these wind forces will be studied.

Published: December 2023

Introduction:The most common congenital vascular tumors that involute within the rst decade of life are capillary
hemangiomas, which are asymptomatic. Middle-aged males developing acquired capillary hemangiomas are rare. The
inciting factors for acquired hemangiomas can vary from trauma, hormonal changes or exposure to irritating agents . We present a series of 5
cases of conjunctival capillary hemangioma in the age group of 30- 45years without any associated systemic disease or cutaneous lesion.
Materials and methods: This study comprises of 5 patients with conjunctival capillary hemangiomas who attended Regional eye hospital,
Kurnool during my study period of 1 year from 1/9/2022 to 30/9/2023. Patients presented to the OPD with complaints of growth on the
conjunctiva, redness and foreign body sensation . The conjunctival growth in these patients was unilateral and conned to palpebral conjunctiva
in 1 case and bulbar conjunctiva in the remaining 4 cases . Growth was excised and sent for histopathological examination. 5 cases were Results:
identied in males in the age group of 30-45 years. 1 growth was pedunculated and the remaining 4 were sessile . There is no association with
systemic disease or cutaneous lesion. On histopathological examination a brovascular collagen tissue was identied composed of small
capillaries arranged in lobules separated by thin septa. Each capillary is lined by plump endothelial cells along with areas of hemorrhage showing
features suggestive of capillary hemangioma Conjunctival vascular tumors are uni Conclusion: lateral and benign. Each case has to be managed
individually and observed for unusual patterns. Most of the conjunctival tumors are sessile and involve the bulbar conjunctiva. These lesions can
be managed by observation . Similar lesions in elderly age should arouse a suspicion of malignancy. Lesions which show progressive growth can
be managed by excision or by use of topical timolol
A COMPREHENSIVE RESEARCH INVESTIGATION ON UACR FOR THE EARLY DETECTION OF DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY IN TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENTS

Published: December 2023

UACR, or Urinary Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio, is a critical diagnostic tool for assessing kidney function in individuals
with Type 2 Diabetes. This investigation estimates the ratio of albumin to creatinine in the urine, helping to identify early
signs of kidney damage. For those with diabetes, kidney health is a critical concern, as high blood sugar levels can harm the kidneys over time.
UACR detects kidney damage and plays a pivotal role in monitoring disease progression. An elevated UACR is an indicator of albuminuria, and it
can guide treatment decisions. Management strategies may include better glucose control, blood pressure regulation, and lifestyle adjustments.
Furthermore, an elevated UACR is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, making it a valuable marker for overall health assessment.

Background: Diabetes Mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects
in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both the basis of the abnormalities in protein, carbohydrates, and fat metabolism.
Objectives: 1) To assess the knowledge regarding self care management of type II DM patients before implementation of SIM. 2) To determine
the effectiveness of the self-instructional module regarding self-care management of type II Diabetes among patients. 3) To compare the posttest knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables. Material And Methods: A quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and posttest design without control group approach was undertaken in the Tisgaonwadi and Lohagaon Villages of Rahata Tehsil. A total of 60 Type II
Diabetes Mellitus patients were selected with the help of a purposive sampling technique to assess the knowledge regarding self-care
management of type II Diabetes Mellitus. The nurse investigator conducted a structured interview for 50-60 min to collect data. Knowledge was
assessed with the dichotomous questionnaire on knowledge on self care management of type II Diabetes Mellitus, whereby The selfinstructional module was distributed to the type II Diabetes Mellitus patient 7 days after the pre-test. The effectiveness of the self-instructional
module was done by conducting post post-test 7 days after the pre-test. The data was analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics wherever
required. Result: The result of the study revealed that SIM was effective as the knowledge score shows the improvement from average (58.51%)
to good (84.13%) from pre-test to post-test respectively. The paired test was calculated for knowledge and found that there was a signicant
difference between pre and post-test scores (t= 3.64, p≤ 0.001). The chi-square test was calculated to nd an association between knowledge it
2 was found that there was a signicant association between knowledge and socio-demographic variables like sex (ϰ = 5.19). Conclusion: The
majority of type II Diabetes Mellitus patients residing at Rahata Tehsil had signicant improvement in knowledge, regarding self care
management of type II Diabetes Mellitus after the implementation of the self-instructional module. Hence self-instructional module is an
effective tool to bring a positive health outcome in type II Diabetes Mellitus patients.
