Published: October 2022

Le workshop de recherche-création «  S’approprier l’effondrement  », organisé par l’association Après les réseaux sociaux a réuni des artistes et chercheur·ses émergent·es afin de confronter théories et pratiques, affects et regards critiques autour de la collapsologie, à travers un matériau privilégié  : les contenus générés par les utilisateurs (CGU) disponibles en ligne. Le texte qui en résulte problématise et prolonge les réflexions et gestes créatifs qui en sont nés, en se posant notamment la question suivante  : Comment un tel travail de recherche-création collectif, s’immergeant dans les discours et les représentations de l’Effondrement, peut-il permettre de résister au sentiment d’impuissance  ?

Authors: Muni Sweta , Gupta Anand Kumar , Pankaj Deepak , Kumar Rakesh , Kumar Shailesh , Kumari Namrata
Published: October 2022

Introduction:

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) among extra-pulmonary organs. The diagnosis of TBM can be considered a double sword in low-resource settings. On one side, there is poor access to health-care services, limited diagnostic capacity, and poor affordability. These factors hamper early treatment initiation while in high-resource settings, clinical suspicion towards TBM is considered minimal, and this lack of recognition many times leads to treatment delay. Xpert MTB/RIF test has come up as the diagnostic rescue with overall sensitivities exceeding 80% and specificity up to 100%.

Materials and Methods:

An observational study was done on 368 children up to 14 years of either gender with suspected TBM in 18 months. This whole duration was consumed in the planning of the study, obtaining ethical clearance, data collection, data analysis and report writing. Cerebrospinal fluid was collected by lumbar puncture. Samples from all patients underwent testing based on GeneXpert, Ziehl–Neelsen (ZN) stain and mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT) culture. IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS version 22) was used for data analysis.

Results:

A total of 321 patients were included in the analysis. The male-to-female ratio was 1.55, thus showing a male preponderance. The majority belonged to Hinduism. The median age was 7.5 years. Based on clinical assessment and radiology, 48 patients were diagnosed with confirmed and probable TBM. Overall, the sensitivity of Gene Xpert, ZN smear and MGIT was 68.75%, 4.2% and 75.0%, respectively. Rifampicin sensitivity of the isolated organism was reported, and it was found that 18 out of 33 patients, implying 54.5% of patients were resistant to rifampicin.

Conclusion:

Till today, TBM poses a life-threatening situation despite advances made in the diagnosis have been achieved. In this context, Gene Xpert represents a step forward.

Authors: Naderifar Homa , Khazaei Salman , Saremi Hossein
Published: October 2022

Introduction:

Because COVID-19 with extrapulmonary manifestations is likely to lead to the development of musculoskeletal disorders in susceptible individuals due to immunological mechanisms, it is possible to see more frozen shoulder cases during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, this study was performed to evaluate the relationship of frozen shoulder and COVID-19.

Materials and Methods:

This study was a cross-sectional study from September 2020 to February 2021; patients who were referred to our shoulder clinic with stiffness and shoulder pain and diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis (AC) were evaluated for COVID-19 involvement. Shoulder range of motion was assessed as passive range of motion of forwarding flexion, internal rotation and external rotation in the arm at the side and 90° abduction. The visual analogue scale was also used to assess pain intensity. SPSS software was used for analysis, and Chi-square test was used for qualitative data analysis and a t-test was used for quantitative data.

Results:

Seventy-two patients with frozen shoulders were included in the study; the results showed that AC occurs at a younger age in patients with COVID-19 infection (P < 0.039); the mean age of all patients was 52.73 ± 8.68. The severity of pain was higher in patients with COVID-19 (P = 0.012). Furthermore, regarding the duration of referral in terms of months, it was shown that people with COVID-19 were referred in a shorter period after the onset of shoulder symptoms and there was a significant difference in terms of referral time and pain between the two groups (P < 0.01). Regular activity had a lower rate in patients with COVID-19 infection and the difference was significant in patients with and without COVID-19 (P < 0.029).

Conclusion:

Due to younger age, greater pain and faster visit of patients with a frozen shoulder after COVID-19, it is recommended to look for frozen shoulder in all COVID-19-infected patients by a complete clinical examination. This is more important in patients without regular physical activity.

Authors: Nazar Gaurang P. , Bassi Shalini , Joshi Nishigandha , Kulkarni Muralidhar M. , Kamath Veena G. , Bhagawath Rohith , Britton John , Arora Monika
Published: October 2022

Background:

National tobacco-free school guidelines were introduced in India in 2009. We assessed compliance with these guidelines across both government, government-aided, and private schools in Udupi district of Karnataka state in India.

Methods:

We visited 915 upper primary and high schools across Udupi district and used a standardized checklist for visual inspection of the school environment and interviews with a school representative to ascertain compliance with guidelines (display of a tobacco-free school/institution board, presence of no smoking signage, no tobacco sale within 100 yards, presence of a Tobacco Control Committee, integration of tobacco control activities into the school health program, and availability of a copy of Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act).

Results:

A tobacco-free school board was displayed at the main entrance of 73% of schools, and there was no evidence of tobacco products on sale within 100 yards of 96% of schools. However, only 5% of the schools reported having the Committee; 4% reported having a copy of the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act, 2003 with the school, and no smoking signage was observed in < 1%. Integration of tobacco control activities into the school health program was reported in 91% of schools.

Conclusions:

Compliance with tobacco-free school guidelines in Udupi was far from complete, indicating the need for enhanced implementation and monitoring.
Efficacy of physical activity interventions on glycemic control among indigenous African adults – A systematic review protocol
Authors: Rao Chythra R. , Chandrasekaran Baskaran , Ravishankar N. , Rutebemberwa Elizeus , Okello David
Published: October 2022

Introduction:

Altered glycemic status in people with or without chronic diseases is likely to be associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases and increased risk of morbidity and mortality in African adults. Although physical activity interventions are imminent public health measures in regulating glucose control and resulting diabetes risk, the summary of evidence to inform public health experts about advocating the physical activity interventions in low-middle income countries in Africa is lacking.

Objective:

The objective of this study was to provide a summary of evidence regarding the effects of physical activity interventions on glycemic control in African adults with and without chronic diseases.

Methodology:

Six electronic databases (Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, Ovid, and PubMed) will be utilized for synthesizing evidence from randomized controlled studies investigating the effects of physical activity interventions on blood glucose levels in African adults. The data (time, duration, and frequency of physical activity interventions, wash-out period, mean differences, and standard deviations of outcomes such as glucose, insulin, and glycosylated hemoglobin within and between groups) will be extracted from the included studies. The quality of the included studies will be assessed by the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and GRADE criteria.

Clinical Relevance:

To the best of our knowledge, this will be the first systematic review to appraise the empirical evidence that would investigate the effectiveness of physical activity interventions on glycemic control in African adults. The evidence is proposed to serve as a guide for public health experts to design effective physical activity interventions aimed at achieving optimum glycemic control among African adults.

Results and conclusion:

The systematic review will collate empirical evidence exploring the effectiveness of physical activity intervention on glycaemic control in African adults. The findings may inform the stakeholders and policymakers in designing and implementing physical activity interventions for appropriate glucose control in African adults.
Health and Wellness Centres as a strategic choice to manage noncommunicable diseases and universal health coverage
Authors: Gandhi Arvind P , Nangia Ria , Thakur J. S.
Published: October 2022

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death globally. On its road to ensuring universal health coverage (UHC) for its population, India initiated the Ayushman Bharat mission in 2018. Under this flagship initiative, the primary health care component is being implemented by establishing Health and Wellness Centers (HWCs) across the country. HWCs are being established by converting and upgrading the primary health centers and subhealth centers. The unmet need for NCDs at the primary care level is high. Under the HWCs, NCD services are being expanded at the community and facility levels. States have brought local innovations in the NCD management. NCD ticker bags, an innovation to ensure treatment adherence, follow-up, and reduce drop-outs, are being done under the HWCs. Gaps in NCD management include a lack of awareness about NCDs' risk factors and management in rural areas and an erratic supply of NCD drugs and diagnostics. Challenges in the NCD management in the primary care settings include capacity building of the health manpower in NCD management, the flow of information for ensuring a continuum of care, and low community participation in the screening and management of NCDs. The challenges that remain in operationalizing the envisaged package in the HWCs must be acknowledged and worked upon. This will enable us to continue on the path toward UHC, stick to the action plan on NCDs, and assist us in achieving the NCD-related targets.

Authors: Ng'ambi Wingston Felix , Mwase Takondwa , Chinkhumba Jobiba , Udedi Michael , Chigaru Farai , Banda Jonathan Chiwanda , Nkhoma Dominic , Mfutso-Bengo Joseph
Published: October 2022

Introduction:

By 2030, the noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are expected to overtake communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional diseases combined as the leading cause of mortality in sub-Saharan Africa. With the increasing trend in NCDs, the NCD risk factors (NCDRF) need to be understood at local level to guide NCD risk mitigation efforts. Therefore, we provide a detailed analysis of some modifiable NCDRF and their determinants in Malawi using the 2017 Stepwise survey (STEPS).

Methods:

This is a secondary analysis of the Malawi 2017 STEPS. Data were analyzed using frequencies, proportions, odds ratios, and their associated 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). We fitted multiple logistic regression of the NCDRF on the explanatory variables using the likelihood ratio test. The level of statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.

Results:

Of the 4187 persons, 9% were current smokers, 1% were taking alcohol, 16% had a high salt intake, 64% had insufficient fruit intake, 21% had low physical activity, 25% had high blood sugar, and 11% had high blood pressure. Smoking odds increased with age but decreased with the level of education. Females had lower odds of engaging in harmful alcohol use than males (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.04, 95%CI: 0.01–0.17, P < 0.001). Females had lower odds of high salt uptake than the males (AOR = 0.70, 95%CI: 0.58–0.84, P = 0.0001). Persons in nonpaid jobs had higher odds of salt uptake than those employed (AOR = 1.70, 95%CI: 1.03–2.79, P = 0.04). Females were 22% more likely to have insufficient fruit uptake compared to males (AOR = 1.22, 95%CI: 1.06–1.41, P = 0.007).

Conclusion:

The high prevalence of physical inactivity, high salt consumption, insufficient fruit intake, raised blood glucose and high relative blood pressure calls for a sound public health approach. The Malawi Ministry of Health should devise multisectoral approaches that minimize exposure to modifiable NCDRF at population and individual levels.

Some people love fragrance as it makes them feel good. They are more likely to use perfumes on daily basis regardless of their mild allergies to scents. This study relates the relation between blood in urine and perfume allergy. Hematuria is a condition in which blood releases from body with urine. When we see blood in our urine this condition is called gross hematuria and when we can’t see the blood in urine with our naked eye it is known as microscopic hematuria. The other risk factors are age, infection and family history. Main symptoms of this disease are nausea, vomiting, fever, chills and pain in abdomen or back. Patients of hematuria often have normal renal function. Perfume allergy is caused by different chemicals which cause diseases in specific host. Perfumes have certain chemicals that can even penetrate our delicate skin. These chemicals then provoke our immune system and a storm of such response results in what we call as allergy. Headache, sneezing is a common symptom in this disease. 60% males have blood in urine and have perfume allergy while 53.75% females have blood in urine and have perfume allergy.

Although intervertebral disc herniation is commonly seen in clinical practice, spinal canal migration of disc fragments is rarely found and can cause a diagnosis dilemma. Intervertebral disc herniation is defined as displacement of disc material beyond its anatomical space. The lumbar spine is the most commonly affected; mostly L4/L5 and L5/S1 region. Disc sequestration refers to the migration of herniated disc fragments into the epidural space, or in rare cases intradural space. Hereby we present a case of sequestered intradural disc at the level of L3/L4 level mimicking a spinal tumour. A 46-year-old man presented with complaints of dull-aching bilateral lower limb pain for the past five years. Then, for the past three months, he experienced numbness over bilateral feet. For the past one month, there is weakness of bilateral lower limbs and he was unable to stand and walk. There is no erectile dysfunction, urinary and faecal incontinence. There was no history of trauma. Examination revealed sensory and motor deficits over bilateral lower limbs from level L3 onwards. There is no spine tenderness. Bilateral straight leg test were negative. MRI spine reported as L3/L4 intradural spinal lesion that demonstrates T1W iso-intensity, predominantly low signal intensity on T2W with minimal area of hyperintensity within. Lesion measured 1.3 x 1.4 x 2.5cm. Laminectomy was done and intra-operatively it was noted sequestered disc material protruding into dura from L2/L3 up to L4/L5. Post-operative period was uneventful and patient regained full muscle power by post-operative day-3. MRI is the gold standard diagnostic tool for spinal pathologies, nevertheless migrated disc fragments can be mistaken for spinal tumour. Hence, it important to keep intervertebral disc prolapse as a differential. In view of the excellent prognosis in these cases, it is not advisable to delay surgery with additional invasive investigation

Published: October 2022

Salah satu solusi untuk teknik perbaikan tanah di proyek reklamasi belawan phase I adalah dengan teknik Preloading yang melakukan suatu kombinasi dengan Prefabricated Vertical Drain (PVD). Metode ini dipilih karena dianggap efektif dalam mempercepat konsolidasi tanah. Serta mampu mengurangi total waktu yang diperlukan dalam proses pemadatan tanah oleh preloding. Berkaitan dengan hal tersebut PVD juga dapat mengurangi beban tambahan yang dibutuhkan untuk mencapai kepadatan tanah yang diinginkan dalam jangka waktu yang sama beserta dengan penerapan beban sementara pada tanah dengan tekanannya akan setara atau lebih besar dari tekanan desain. Pada teknik penimbunan tanah yang dikombinasikan preloading dengan PVD (Prefabricated Vertical Drain) memiliki potensi manfaat yang besar yakni mengurangi besar penurunan setelah pembangunan, mempercepat proses konsolidasi , meningkatkan stabilitas tanah dan mengurangi mitigasi efek likuifaksi.

Tanah merupakan elemen yang sangat penting dalam suatu konstruksi dimana berperan sebagai pondasi pendukung segala jenis konstruksi ataupun bahan konstruksi tersebut. Tanah dapat dijadikan pondasi struktur diatasnya apabila memiliki daya dukung yang cukup.  Dari nilai CBR dan nilai kuat geser dapat dilihat parameter daya dukung tanah . Dalam penelitian ini, serbuk gipsum akan digunakan sebagai bahan perkuatan tanah karena gipsum mengandung silika sebagai pengikat mineral, yang memiliki kinerja lebih baik daripada pengikat organik karena tidak menimbulkan polusi udara dan murah, tahan api, tahan terhadap faktor biodegradable dan bahan kimia.  Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan tanah plesteran terhadap kuat geser tanah, berat jenis kering maksimum dan CBR . Selain itu pada penelitian ini juga akan menganalisis perbandingan hasil parameter kuat geser tanah antara pengujian UCT dengan Triaxial UU serta menganalisis bagaimana perbandingan hasil pengujian Triaxial UU laboratorium dengan simulasi pengujian Triaxial UU yang dilakukan pada program PLAXIS 2D 2017.01. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berat kering maksimum (ℽdmax) tanah menurun dengan penambahan bubuk gipsum, dmax tertinggi 1,60 g/cm3, dan dmax terendah 1,59 g/cm3. Nilai kekuatan geser (cu) hasil pengujian UCT mengalami peningkatan seiring dengan penambahan bubuk gypsum dimana nilai cu terendah sebesar 0,90 kg/cm2 sedangkan nilai cu tertinggi sebesar 2,983 kg/cm2, terjadi peningkatan 231%.  Hasil pemodelan dari pemodelan UU triaksial dan model tanah yang diperkeras pada program PLAXIS 2D sangat mendekati hasil pengujian laboratorium, menghasilkan hasil tegangan deviator 15% yang relatif sama.

Published: October 2022

Lake Sentani has an area of ​​about 9,630 ha and is located at an altitude of 72 m above sea level. Residents who live on the shores and shores of the lake, use the lake water for bathing, washing and latrine purposes. They also use it as raw water for drinking water and also as a means of transportation and even throw household waste into the lake water. There are 5 (five) rivers as the inlet, namely the Hawaii, Yamolo, Klandeli, Dofroko and Hobay rivers and there is one estuary, the Djaifuri River which is located in the east (Puay area). This study aims to determine the index of each water quality parameter and the total index of water quality. The water quality index parameters studied were; DO, Fecal coliform, pH, BOD, Temperature, Total Sulfate, Nitrate-N, Turbidity and Total Dissolved Solid (TDS). Sampling was carried out at 3 (three) sample points (stations) namely the mouth of the Haway River (Ifale Sentani), the middle of the lake (Ayapo Sentani) and the Upper Jaifuri River (Puay Yoka). Determination of the Total Water Quality Index is calculated using the National Sanitation Foundation's Water Quality Index (NSF-WQI) method for both Lake Sentani water and the total standard water quality index. The test results of each parameter are compared with the Class 1 Water Quality Standards Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 22 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Environmental Protection and Management. The results obtained from the research at 3 (three) research stations turned out that station 1 obtained an index of 44.24 and station 3 obtained an index of 46.60 both classified as Bad (bad), station 2 obtained an index of 51.42 classified as Medium (medium), while the standard water quality class 1 obtained a quality index of 47.24 classified as Bad (poor) too. Thus, when compared with the standard water quality index of class 1, what meets the requirements as raw water for drinking water is lake water at station 2 (Ayapu Sentani) where the index value is greater than the quality standard.

Published: October 2022

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de iller ve bölgeler bazında insani gelişme seviyesi ölçülmektedir. Bu çalışma aynı zamanda, insani gelişme endeksini Türkiye açısından yeniden ele almakta ve Türkiye özelinde yeni sonuçlar önermektedir.

Çalışmada hesaplanan insani gelişme endeksi, UNDP’nin yöntemini temel almaktadır. Bu yönteme göre insani gelişme, eğitim, sağlık ve gelir boyutlarına dayalı olarak dünya genelinde ve her yıl için hesaplamaktadır. Ancak bu yöntemin, Türkiye özelinde sonuçlarının daha iyi yansıtılması için sağlık endeksinin hesaplanmasında bir değişiklik yapılmıştır.

THE ANALYSIS OF THE TRADE BALANCE OF TURKEY IN RESPONSE TO OIL PRICE CHANGES
Authors: TAŞSEVEN Özlem
Published: October 2022

This study empirically examines the effects of oil prices on the trade balance of Turkey, which depends heavily on oil imports. Unlike the other studies on this subject, in this study, the relationship between oil prices and trade balance is investigated by regime-dependent impulse response functions and forecast error decompositions based on multivariate Threshold VAR (TVAR) model comparing with linear VAR model. The findings suggest that, the relationship between oil prices and trade balances is non-linear. In the regime of higher oil price volatility, components of trade balance respond stronger to oil price shocks than lower regime and linear VAR model. Oil price increases in the high regime deteriorates the total trade balance, non-oil and non-gas trade balance and intermediate trade balance; on the other hand, consumption trade balance of Turkey is positively affected from oil price increases. Additionally, consumption goods trade balance found to be the mostly affected by oil price shocks according to the impulse-response functions and variance decomposition analysis. Finally, the findings obtained from linear VAR and lowest regime are generally similar and has less effect on the trade balance components.
THE RELATIONSHIP OF INFLATION, UNEMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH PANEL DATA ANALYSIS IN SELECTED OECD COUNTRIES
Authors: ÖZEN Kerem
Published: October 2022

The aim of this study is to analyze the causality relationship between inflation, unemployment and economic growth variables for selected OECD (France, Australia, Canada, Germany, Iceland, Poland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Turkey) countries using the data set for the years 2010-2020. with to reveal. In order to determine whether the economic growth variable has an effect on unemployment and inflation, unit root tests were first conducted for the variables used in the study. According to the results of the test, it was determined that the variables contained unit root. Considering the data obtained from this study, the hypothesis that there is no cointegration at the 5% significance level on average is rejected. According to Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) panel causality test, although a bidirectional causality relationship was detected between growth and unemployment variables, a unidirectional causality relationship was found between unemployment and inflation variables. In this context, it is known that there is a cointegration relationship between the variables (economic growth, inflation, unemployment) for at least one of the countries. It is expected that this study will contribute to the literature with current data and new generation econometric tests.

Published: October 2022

Reduction and better management of food waste affects food security at the household level. Various efforts to increase availability by optimizing production have been carried out but it will be more difficult if it is not accompanied by a reduction in food waste which tends to increase, especially at the consumer level. This study aims to examine how behavior and preventive strategies to reduce food waste in households from various literatures can be used as educational materials or the basis for food waste management programs from households. This Systematic Review study was conducted using the PubMed/Medline, Science Direct, and Google Scholar search databases. Search was limited to articles in peer-reviewed journals, written in English and Indonesian between 2013 and 2022. Publications older than 2013 were not included in compiling the study. After the literature was obtained, then the articles were filtered by title and abstract, including filtering out irrelevant and duplication articles so that there were 13 articles eligible for review. Food loss and waste accounts for > 20% of all food produced, which should still be avoided because reducing food waste can increase food availability for the community. The most widely discussed determinants in the study review are behaviors that include food selection, eating habits and food processing, shopping practices, and waste minimization practices. The potential for reducing food waste can be increased with the most dominant preventive strategies, namely education and socialization, then food management at the individual level, community and government participation.

Published: October 2022

Introduction. The world practice of classifying wastes according to the degree of danger involves the simultaneous consideration of the physicochemical, toxic and ecotoxic properties of the waste components. According to Directive 2008/98/EC, waste is divided into hazardous, non-hazardous and mirror, i.e. waste that can be classified as hazardous or non-hazardous depending on the percentage of components. In order to implement part 2 of subparagraph "d" of paragraph 1 of the list of instructions of the President of the Russian Federation dated January 24, 2017 No. Pr-140GS on the harmonization of legislation in the field of environmental protection and legislation in the field of ensuring the sanitary and epidemiological welfare of the population and the development of unified approaches to the classification of waste with taking into account the world experience Russian Register of Potentially Hazardous Chemical and Biological Substances together with the Federal state budgetary institution "Ural state research institute of regional environmental problems", carried out research work to identify wastes with carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic properties. The aim of the study was to prepare lists of substances contained in production and consumption waste that have a carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic effects, indicating the forms and preferred route of entry into the body, and develop a methodology for coding waste by hazardous factors. Materials and methods. The analysis of domestic and foreign normative-legal acts on the regulation of waste hazards has been carried out. Results. A method for coding production and consumption wastes has been developed, taking into account carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic effects. The 905 of the 6130 wastes included in the FWC were coded according to these types of hazard, which requires a revision of their classification. Conclusion. The introduction of the developed coding methodology into the practice of waste management will make it possible to harmonize the classifications of wastes according to their impact on human health and the environment. Coding is an effective tool for waste management regulation, including disposal, recycling and reuse.
