Authors: Fako Kane , Yves Djina , Koffi Siméon Brou , Tia jean Gonnety
Published: August 2021

Objectives: this study aims to compare composition and sensorial characteristics of infusions of leaves from broad leave morphotype (blmLM) and long leave morphotype (llmLM) of Lippia multiflora (Savannah tea) cultivated in three localities, in order to identify the morphotype and/or locality, which offer the better biochemical composition and organoleptic qualities of tea. Methodology and results: Leaves harvested were dried and pulverized. Infusions were prepared using standard methods and sensorialy analysed by Mossion methods. Elements were determined according to AOAC methods. Phenolics compounds and caffeine was analysed by a standard method. Infusions of blmLM are rich in tannins (12.15-14.26 mg/L), quercetin (0.33-0.95 mg/L) and flavanone (05.75-13.33 mg/L), while those of llmLM are rich in caffeine (19.07-20.14 mg/L) and catechin (08.89-59.56 mg/L). Calcium (50.96- 51.54 mg/L) and magnesium (35.10-37.08 mg/L) contents are highest in infusions of BlmLM, while llmLM infusions are richer in K (97.78-103.46 mg/L) and Na (143.01-156.03 mg/L). Globally, infusions are brown to greenish yellow, astringent, slightly bitter with a pleasant smell. Infusions of Béoumi and Korhogo have a mint scent; those of Béoumi have a scent of lemongrass. Conclusion and Application of results: The qualities of infusions depend on the morphotype and the growing area. Their richness in phenolic compounds, caffeine and essential minerals gives them nutritional, medicinal and pharmacological properties and can be a replacement for ordinary teas sold on the market. This study provides information on the choice of the plant morphotype and the cultivation area according to the needs of the consumer. Consumption of infusions of leaves from Korhogo and Béoumi that are richer in tannins, catechin, quercetin and essential minerals (calcium, magnesium and iron) will be beneficial for human nutrition, bones strengthening and prevention of cardiovascular diseases which represent a public health problem. Taking Lippia multiflora into account in the agricultural and eating habits of farmers will constitute for them a source of income and also a source of permanent raw material for the agro-food processing industries. Keywords: Lippia multiflora, leaves infusion, biochemical composition, sensory characteristics

A FOLLOW-UP STUDY - LOW-PRESSURE PNEUMOPERITONEUM COMPARED TO STANDARD PNEUMOPERITONEUM IN LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY
Authors: Pawar Om Prakash , Sinha Ranjana
Published: August 2021

Introduction-: Post-laparoscopic pain syndrome is well conceded and characterized by abdominal and
especially shoulder tip pain. It occurs frequently following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The etiology of
post-laparoscopic pain can be classied into three aspects visceral, incision, and shoulder. This study purposed to compare
the frequency and strength of shoulder tip pain between low pressure (7 mmHg) and standard pressure (14 mmHg) in a
prospective randomized clinical test.
Methods-: One hundred forty successive patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomized
prospectively to either low or high-pressure pneumoperitoneum. The statistical analysis included mean age, weight, sex,
duration of surgery, conversion rate, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade, operative time, incidence and severity
of shoulder tip pain, and post-operative hospital stay.
Results -: The patient's quality was similar in the two groups except for the predominance of males in the standard-pressure
group. The plan of action was successful in 68 of 70 patients in the low-pressure group. The number of analgesic injections,
visual analog score, operative time, and length of post-operative days were the same in all groups. Occurence of shoulder tip
pain was higher in the standard-pressure group, but not statistically signicantly so (p = 0.100) (27.9% versus 44.3%).
Conclusions -: Low-pressure pneumoperitoneum tended to be better than standard-pressure pneumoperitoneum in a period
of lower incidence of shoulder tip pain. Still, this difference did not reach statistical signicance following elective laparoscopic
cholecystectomy

Published: August 2021

INTRODUCTION: In the modern world,due to advent of high speed motor vehicles , high energy trauma
commonly involves the knee joint and results in complex tibial plateau fractures and associated
ligament and meniscal injuries . Proper diagnosis and management of these injuries reduced the chances of degenerative
changes around knee joint later on.
MATERIAL AND METHOD: A prospective study was conducted in the Department of Orthopaedics in a tertiary health care
center of western rajasthan from January 2018 to December 2020 . A total of eighty patients( 62 males: 18 females) with tibial
plateau fractures and associated soft tissue injuries were included .Patients were assessed both clinically and radiologically
and “ SCHATZKER'S classication was used to classify the tibial plateau fractures. Pre-operatively in every case CT-scan
was used to study fracture pattern and MRI was done to see fracture morphology and associated soft tissue injuries.
RESULT: A total 80 patient was included in our study,out of which 73 (91.25%) having ligaments( Cruciate and Collaterals) and
meniscal injury . Injury to the lateral meniscus was found most frequently in Schatzker II fracture (p<0.0006) and medial
meniscus in schatzker IV (p< 0.011). Variable association was shown by ACL and PCL injuries with tibial plateu fracture
morphology ,but as the grade of designation increases within schatzker classication as does the frequency of cruciate
ligament tear. Overall incidence of LCL rupture occurred least frequently in Schatzker II fractures (7 of 34; 20.5%), which was
statistically signicant (P < 0.01). Complete MCL tear occurred in 27( 33.7%) of all fractures and in 41% of Schatzker II fractures.
PLC tear had shown signicant association with medial tibial plateu fracture (schatzker IV).
CONCLUSION: The likelihood of the cruciate , collateral ligament and PLC injury increases as the grade of designation within
schatzker classication (schatzker I-VI). PLC injury had a signicant association with medial tibial plateu fracture (schatzker
IV) and MCL had a signicant association with lateral tibial plateau fracture .

Published: August 2021

The paper presents the results of experimental research on modifying the active area of cathode surfaces
applied in the construction of electronic guns and increasing their operating efciency. The intensity of
the thermo-electronic emission current is directly proportional to the area of the active surface of the cathodes used for this
purpose. To change the micro-geometry of the metal cathode surface, the method of pulsed electric discharge machining
(PEDM) was applied. As a result of the application of the discharge plasma on the surface of the cathodes, Taylor cones with
heights ranging from 50 to 100 µm were extracted. The analysis of the obtained current-voltage characteristics allows us to
compare the values of the saturation current intensities for unprocessed cathodes and those processed by the proposed
technology. The increase of the active area of the cathodes with conical asperities causes the increase of the electronic thermoemission current by 10^4. A comparing to the cathodes whose active surfaces have not been processed by this method.
ACID RAIN-CAUSES, EFFECTS AND PREVENTIVE STRATEGIES
Authors: K Shree Meenakshi.
Published: August 2021

Acid rain was discovered in the 19th century by Robert Angus Smith, a pharmacist from Manchester
(England), who measured high levels of acidity in rain falling over industrial regions of England and
contrasted them to the much lower levels he observed in less polluted areas near the coast. Little attention was paid to his work
until the 1950s, when biologists noticed an alarming decline of sh populations in the lakes of southern Norway and traced the
problem to acid rain. Similar ndings were made in the 1960s in North America (the Adirondacks, Ontario, Quebec). These
ndings spurred intense research to understand the origin of the acid rain phenomenon. In this research paper we will
investigate and take a look at the key factors and the chemical origins of acid rain and the steps undertaken to prevent it.

Human resources play a prominent role in accelerating the pace of socio – economic development of the
nation. A nation with a large population may not be a rich country but its prosperity depends on the level
of awareness knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes possessed by its population. India's strength lies in the human resource
base and there is a need to transfer these human beings as human resources with continuous upgration of skills and abilities.
Women constitute 50 per cent of the population and contributing to the national development. Providing equal opportunities for
learning devoid of gender becomes a powerful tool of changing the status of women in the society. It is well known fact that
women with stern developments have launched their talent in varied areas and have made an incredible identity for
themselves in the society; their status today has undergone a drastic change from what it was in the fast. This is one side of the
coin which educated and urban women enjoy and yet other side of the coin mainly in the rural areas still the women suffer from
submission, dependency and their work is unrecognized and uncounted. In this present globalized, technological and
competitive society, the emerging new age women should have the ability to equip themselves with education there by seeking
her own identity, condence and self-respect. In order to attain and sustain this status there is a need to continuous up
gradation of skills and abilities for which lifelong learning is the effective means. In this paper the status of women need of
lifelong learning obstacles that hinder the women to adopt lifelong learning, need of the involvement of universities in
promoting lifelong learning among women were discussed.

Death occurring in some form of custodial detention is commonly known as death in custody, such as
police cell or prison. A person in custody is entirely dependent on his custodians for his basic
requirements hence this type of death raises questions regarding living conditions, inhumane treatment and violation of
fundamental rights of prisoners.
This prospective analytic study was carried out during period January 2019 to December2020 in Department of Forensic
Medicine at PMCH Patna Bihar. This study observed 56 judical custodial deaths that maximum cases were males 93%and 7%
were females. Age group above 55 years(40%). Maximum cases were brought in month of September(23%)followed by
August (16%). Most prisoners died in hospital during treatment (82%).Deaths among 56 custodial deaths convict prisoners
were dominated 41(73.21%) over undertrial prisoners 15 (26.79%) in jail custody.Pulmonary tuberculosis was the most common
natural cause of death among prisoners. The natural causes was in 89% cases and unnatural in 11% cases .
Majority of deaths in custody are due to natural causes and this may occur due to various factors like improper medical
facilities, overcrowding in jail, old age, poor nutritional status, poor hygiene etc.

Background The role of anaesthetist has increased tremendously from just being in the operative team to
the recovery of the patient in the post-operative period. The recovery without any complication requires
multidisciplinary team which should be embedded in a clinical care pathway with focus on enhancing patient recovery.
Objectives: To evaluate the need for post anaesthesia visit, among Anaesthesiologists to improve the post-operative and post
anaesthesia quality care. Methodology: This was a cross sectional study conducted among 275 anaesthesiologists by an
online survey using a validated pretested questionnaire Results: Majority of the study participants were males. 92.4 % had
regular post-anaesthesia service available in their hospitals. More than 70% of the patients had post-operative visits. Majority
of the post-operative visit was on the day of surgery and on the rst post-operative day. Conclusion: It is the responsibility of the
anaesthesiologist to guarantee that patients have completely recovered from the given anaesthesia and to detect and treat any
probable anaesthetic-related complications. Hence, a post-operative care team involving the surgeons and anaesthetist can
alleviate the complications, shorten the duration of hospital stay and improved recovery.

Published: August 2021

Distribution channels have an important meaning for achieving company success in the field of marketing so that company management is required to always be responsive and able to adapt to environmental changes. Input and output data processing is done by giving weights to the input and output using the DEA CCR primal model by maximizing the input-oriented-based objective function. The results of processing the efficiency scale show the relative efficiency level of the scale of each DMU in the company. The efficiency scale is obtained through the formulation of the DEA CCR primal model between each DMU input and output. If the DMU gets an input and output efficiency value of less than 100%, then the DMU is said to be relatively inefficient. Meanwhile, if the efficient value is equal to 100%, then the DMU is said to be relatively efficient. Of the 5 distribution cities, Sidoarjo, PaluKendari, Bandung and Lamongan which were analyzed, there were 2 cities that were inefficient or experiencing waste in their input and output variables, so the company needed to reorganize the level of use of inputs and outputs it achieved and utilize them optimally to get output that is optimal. targeted.

Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Hypoallergenic Milk Formulas for the Management of Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy in the United Kingdom
Authors: Martins Rui , Minshall Eleanor , Connolly Mark
Published: August 2021

Background: Cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) is the most common food allergy in early childhood. In most children CMPA resolves by age 5 or 6; however, if not treated correctly can provoke nutritional deficiency resulting in poor growth. Management consists of excluding cow’s milk from the diet, with hypoallergenic formulas (or non-dairy alternatives) being introduced to meet nutritional requirements. Objectives: To compare the cost-effectiveness of hypoallergenic formulas in reducing allergic manifestations and promoting immune tolerance in infants with immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated symptoms of CMPA. Methods: A trial-based decision analytic cohort model was developed to simulate the occurrence of urticaria, eczema, asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, or being symptom-free in infants with CMPA in the United Kingdom. Amino acid-based formula (AAF), extensively hydrolysed casein formula containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus Gorbach Goldin (EHCF+LGG), extensively hydrolysed whey formula (EHWF), and soy formula (SF) were compared using the National Health Service (NHS) perspective, 3-year time horizon and 3.5% discount rate for cost and health consequences. Hypoallergenic formulas comparative efficacy was sourced from a prospective cohort study. Resources required to manage allergic symptoms were sourced from published literature, validated by a UK clinician, and applied to UK cost resources. Results were reported as cost per additional child free from allergic manifestations at 3 years and cost per additional immune tolerant child at 3 years. Results: In the base case, infants receiving EHCF+LGG were associated with lower NHS resource use and improved CMPA tolerance. Over the 3-year treatment period, savings of £119, £476, and £1094 were achieved with EHCF+LGG compared to SF, EHWF and AAF, respectively. Infant formula accounted for the largest proportion of resource consumption averaging 44% for all comparators, with a minimum of 31% for SF and a maximum of 53% for AAF over 3 years. General practitioners’ visits constituted the second highest cost component, approximately 17% of total costs across comparators. The results were robust to deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses. Conclusions: Compared to AAF, SF, and EHWF hypoallergenic formulas, EHCF+LGG was the most cost-effective, associated with lower total costs and contributing to a higher proportion of children being symptom-free and developing immune tolerance 3-years after diagnosis.
DI CESARE, Donatella. Vírus Soberano? A Asfixia Capitalista
Authors: Gregorio de Araujo Pedro Antônio
Published: August 2021

A presente resenha trata de apresentar as ideias defendidas pela filósofa italiana Donatella Di Cesare em seu livro Vírus Soberano? A Asfixia Capitalista. Sua tese é que a pandemia de COVID-19 desvelou o paradigma imunitário das democracias ocidentais, intensificando, assim, a asfixia capitalista que vivemos, caracterizada sobretudo pela atmosfera de terror total e invisível. Tal desvelamento e intensificação ocorre porque o vírus interrompeu a aceleração que estávamos acostumados a conviver, o que ocasiona uma tetanização do mundo. A COVID-19 exibiu a maneira como o medo está imbricado na modernidade, e a forma que isso se tornou o mote da governança neoliberal. Nosso objetivo aqui é avaliar criticamente o que Di Cesare argumenta, tentando responder à pergunta que ela faz no título de seu livro: vírus soberano? De quê maneira o coronavírus conseguiu afetar tão bruscamente nossa vida e as consequências filosóficas disso? Trataremos, também, sobre quais soluções Di Cesare propõe para nosso paradigma pós-COVID-19.

TEKNOLOGI PERSUASIF : AKTOR PENTING MEDIA SOSIAL DALAM MENGUBAH SIKAP DAN PERILAKU PENGGUNA
Authors: Rahmatullah Tansah
Published: August 2021

Abstract - Social media influences and changes the attitudes and behavior of its users using a technique known as Persuasive Technology, a concept that is both invisible and manipulative, which has a big impact in all aspects. This research is library research using a literature study approach. With persuasive technology, web applications, social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Tiktok, and other applications tend to become addicting and get more addicting. Persuasive technology motivates us to use a product and makes it very simple to do and trains us to keep on going with notifications, friend requests, and status updates. Ethical issues are a key component of social media persuasive technology. Persuasive technology can be ethical and unethical. The main problem in social media is its business model, which becomes very unethical when giant technology companies earn benefits from such a chaotic and unsettling situation. Persuasive technology that is run as a system design in computing devices needs to be redesigned and encouraged to make a total shift towards humane technologies that support and provide shared prosperity, democracy, and an information environment. Efforts to encourage public awareness about persuasiveness that are being carried out need to be increased even further through education and literacy programs.

Masalah etika adalah komponen kunci dari teknologi persuasif media sosial. Teknologi persuasif bisa menjadi etis dan tidak etis. Permasalahan utama dalam media sosial adalah model bisnisnya, menjadi sangat tidak etis, ketika perusahaan raksasa teknologi digital mendapatkan keuntungan dari situasi yang demikian kacau dan meresahkan Teknologi persuasif yang dijalankan sebagai desain sistem pada perangkat teknologi komputasi perlu di desain ulang dan di dorong untuk melakukan pergeseran secara menyeluruh menuju teknologi manusiawi yang mendukung dan menghadirkan kesejahteraan, demokrasi, dan lingkungan informasi bersama.

The issue of activation of cognitive activity of undergraduates
Authors: Starokon Yevhen , Dziubchuk Roman , Korniichuk Yurii
Published: August 2021

W artykule przeanalizowano miejsce i rolę nauczyciela w aktywizacji aktywności poznawczej studentów. Stwierdzono, że nauczyciel jest kluczową postacią w aktywizacji aktywności poznawczej studentów szkół wyższych. Akcent w jego pracy powinien zostać przesunięty nie na transfer wiedzy zgromadzonej w danym momencie, ale na kształtowanie motywacji do nauki. Z analizy wynika, że większość badaczy w swojej pracy koncentruje się na poznawczych i dydaktyczno-metodologicznych obszarach aktywacji aktywności poznawczej. Zagadnienia bezpośrednio związane z przekształcaniem potrzeb poznawczych studentów poprzez optymalizację interakcji pedagogicznej zostały zbadane w niewielkim stopniu. Autorzy rozważają zadanie intensyfikacji działań edukacyjnych poprzez wykorzystanie w komunikacji pedagogicznej wzorców dydaktycznych i psychologicznych oraz zasad interakcji wychowawczej. W takiej interakcji przedmiot-przedmiot należy w szczególności położyć nacisk na ukształtowanie hierarchii potrzeb osobistych, niezbędnych dla studentów szkół wyższych. Artykuł przedstawia w formie graficznej strukturę sfery potrzebowo-motywacyjnej osób ubiegających się o wykształcenie wyższe o różnej sile motywacji do nauki. Tylko pozytywne emocje mogą zmienić hierarchię potrzeb osoby o niskiej motywacji do nauki. Tezę tę potwierdza wynik badania korelacji między średnim wynikiem studentów szkół wyższych za 5 lat a poziomem zaspokojenia ich podstawowych potrzeb (wg A. Maslowa). Sugeruje się przede wszystkim wykorzystanie technologii tworzenia sytuacji sukcesu w nauce, aktywnych metod nauczania, w szczególności metody projektów, do kształtowania wewnętrznych motywów uczenia się. Podstawą procesu aktywizacji aktywności poznawczej nauczycieli szkół wyższych jest jego repertuar komunikacyjny: zbiór technik, metod i technologii komunikacyjnych, które dają mu możliwość kształtowania potrzeb poznawczych. W artykule przedstawiono takie umiejętności komunikacyjne, które dają możliwość zintensyfikowania działań edukacyjnych studentów na zajęciach. Generalnie artykuł ukazuje poziom technologiczny i motywacyjny działalności dydaktycznej nauczyciela, biorąc pod uwagę, że może on skuteczniej zarządzać aktywnością poznawczą studentów.
Estimated billing system is the bane of grid electric power supply and development in Nigeria: An empirical analysis
Authors: Ohajianya Anthony Chibuike
Published: August 2021

The estimated billing system for electricity was introduced in Nigeria by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) in 2012 for billing customers without meters or with faulty or inaccessible meters. But instead of following the guidelines and formula provided by NERC for the estimation, the electricity Distribution Companies (DisCos) resorted to billing these customers arbitrarily and frustrated efforts by NERC to ensure the proper metering of electricity consumers. This research evaluates the incentive, which makes the DisCos in Nigeria prefer the estimating billing system to a much more efficient smart prepaid metering system. To carry out the research, four Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) customers were selected. The estimated bills of these customers, which they received before they got smart prepaid meters, were compared with their prepaid meter bills for an equal period. EEDC was found to be over-billing these customers under the estimated billing system by a yearly average per customer of 64,901.67 Nigerian Naira (170.79 USD).
