The quest for lead-free aviation fuel has spurred advances in technology and environmental sustainability. This article presents a concise overview of aviation fuel evolution, primarily focusing on the search for alternatives to traditional-led Aviation Gasoline (AVGAS). Since the inaugural flight by the Wright brothers in 1903, avgas became integral to piston-engine aircraft, albeit with environmental concerns due to its lead content. Consequently, extensive research has pursued cleaner fuel options to mitigate lead emissions' environmental and health hazards. Numerous studies have explored potential substitutes for avgas, including mogas, alcohol-based additives, and fuel blends, aiming to maintain aircraft performance while reducing or eliminating lead content. Recent investigations have assessed the effects of different fuel processes on aircraft performance and emissions. High-octane mogas (RON 98) has emerged as a promising alternative to replace leaded avgas, showcasing its potential as a viable solution. Despite progress, further research is essential. Pursuing cleaner aviation fuel requires balancing performance optimization and environmental sustainability. Continued exploration and experimentation are crucial to identifying optimal solutions meeting aviation standards while ensuring a safer, greener future for air travel

Since the dawn of civilization, humans have been learning and adapting to new environments and changing scenarios. The fast-paced changing trends in the advancement of educational technology are exercising a push on the Higher Education System to elevate and follow transformation. Moreover, the UN Sustainable Development Goal 4 expands the phenomenon of “Quality Education” by 2030 which suggests building and upgrading the traditional educational environment to a more tech-oriented learning environment.The current study used a quantitative research approach and collected data from a sample of seven nighty eight students from private and public sector universities in the province of Sindh, Pakistan. The study proposed four hypotheses investigating direct and indirect relationships between variables, based on Lewin’s Change Model and reinforced by the Social Exchange Theory. The research findings showed that the attitude toward Technological Change positively and significantly influences the Academic Self Concept through the intervention (mediation) of students' creativity. The interrelationship of the variables in the current study model, especially within the tertiary education of Sindh province, has not been extensively researched before. This emphasizes the uniqueness of the research questions developed based on the theoretical framework of the Kurt Lewin Model. Moreover, the study has been updated to incorporate citations and references from recent years. The study's findings indicate that leaders and managers of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) play a crucial role in influencing students' academic self-concept based on their views of the technology resources in the learning environment, particularly in line with HEC Vision 2025 and UN Sustainability Development Goal 4 Quality Education.

Authors: Farman Ullah Khan  , Gohar Farid  , Faiza Gulshan
Published: March 2024

The current study scrutinizes the relationship between the cost of equity and corporate governance practices within companies listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX).The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is applied to determine the cost of equity. A Sys-GMM model was applied to a sample of 170 businesses listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) from 2014 to 2019 to establish a connection between the variables. Sys-GMM is effective in addressing endogeneity issues related to corporate governance variables. In addition, the Sys-GMM results were compared with pooled OLS and fixed effects. It was discovered that the subsequent approaches failed to address the endogeneity issue, consequently yielding biased results. The findings unveiled a negative nexus amid cost of equity and block ownership. The output indicated that board size plays a key role in reducing the cost of equity. Interestingly, audit quality is directly related to equity cost, however, female directors and leverage were not linked with the cost of equity. The findings will direct policymakers in expanding or adapting the scope and depth of corporate governance practices, which will certainly facilitate the production of the right corporate climate in the country.

Authors: Nisa Gul , Mansoor Latifa , Shaikh Sumera Ahmed
Published: March 2024

The objective of this study was to investigate the external socio-environmental elements that are linked to infant mortality. The research utilized analytical techniques that relied on multidimensional contingency tables in order to evaluate the comparative risks associated with infant mortality across various sub-populations. The models employed coefficient estimates by integrating birth and death data. It is noteworthy that the provision of hospital care throughout the neonatal period has been seen to alleviate the heightened risk faced by specific high-risk infants. Furthermore, the study revealed a correlation between elevated rates of infant mortality and individuals of lower socioeconomic positions, as well as those residing in rural regions. Nevertheless, a comprehensive analysis of individual-level characteristics and their influence on this correlation was not conducted. Examining this differentiation between contextual and individual factors carries substantial implications for implementing focused interventions. Hence, our objective is to ascertain the distinct impacts of poverty and urban-rural categorization on term infant mortality. Additionally, the research findings indicated that the newborn mortality rate in the Lasbela district surpassed that of the remaining districts in the Balochistan province. The collective results reveal that most women, specifically 66%, engage in employment activities while being pregnant. Among this group, 56% encounter complications throughout this gestational phase, while an equivalent proportion of 66% encounter medical issues.

In order to fulfill the demand for high energy and capacity, an electrode with high-voltage capability, namely LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) that has an operating potential of up to 4.7 V vs Li/Li+, is currently becoming popular in Li-ion battery chemistries. This research produced LNMO by using a solid-state method with only one-step synthesis route to compare its electrochemical performance with different lithium sources, including hydroxide (LNMO-LiOH), acetate (LNMO-LiAce), and carbonate (LNMO-LiCar) precursors. TGA/DSC was first performed for all three sample precursors to ensure the optimal calcination temperature, while XRD and SEM characterized the physical properties. The electrochemical measurements, including cyclic voltammetry and charge-discharge, were conducted in the half-cell configurations of LNMO//Li-metal using a standard 1 M LiPF6 electrolyte. LNMO-LiOH samples exhibited the highest purity and the smallest particle size, with values of 93.3% and 418 nm, respectively. In contrast, samples with higher impurities, such as LNMO-LiCar, mainly in the form of LixNi1-xO (LiNiO), displayed the largest particle size. The highest working voltage possessed by LNMO-LiOH samples was 4.735 V vs Li/Li+. The results showed that LNMO samples with LiNiO impurities would affect the reaction behavior that occurs at the cathode-electrolyte interface during the release of lithium-ions, resulting in high resistance at the battery operations and decreasing the specific capacity of the LNMO during discharging. The highest value, shown by LNMO-LiOH, was up to 92.75 mAh/g. On the other side, LNMO-LiCar only possessed a specific capacity of 44.57 mAh/g, indicating a significant impact of different lithium sources in the overall performances of LNMO cathode.

Being a developing economy, Pakistan can sustain its economic growth through the promotion of Tourism activities. In this regard, tourism is considered an important channel to boost the economic development of a country. In Pakistan, the tourism sector has been fluctuating due to various political and security issues. Moreover, Sustainability is an established business trend in the modern corporate world. The literature on sustainable tourism practices is scant, particularly in the least developed countries. Very few studies touch upon the concept and no holistic theoretical or conceptual frameworks around the idea of sustainable practices in the tourism industry have been formulated. This study aims to explore the implementation of sustainable tourism in Pakistan and how the tourism industry conceives its role in this regard. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with the tour operators who operated in the northern area of Pakistan. In-depth interviews were conducted to gather data. Results suggest that the tour operators although realize the importance of social, environmental, and economic dimensions of tourism on the communities have no management systems in place to cater accordingly. There are no incentives in place by the government to facilitate tour operators to design and implement such systems. The tour operators do not select a destination based on Sustainable practices, but rather the selection of destination is mostly demand-based and profit-oriented. The study suggests that corporate profit motive is the sole criterion for decision-making and is one of the major causes impeding sustainable tourism in Pakistan. The role of tour operators in developing sustainable tourism is vague as the tour operators do not have any systems in place to implement sustainable models. The study recommends that efforts need to be put in place to incentivize sustainable tourism in Pakistan and proper laws should be set forth by the authorities to comply by the tour operators. The role of tour operators is important and understood, however, there is a need to put proper systems in place.

Aiming at the problem of inaccurate prediction of spatial-temporal distribution of electric vehicle charging load due to insufficient consideration of vehicle-road-station-network interaction, a prediction model of spatial-temporal distribution of electric vehicle charging load based on gravitation model was proposed. Firstly, considering road network traffic flow and ambient temperature, the relationship between external environment and energy consumption of electric vehicles is analyzed. Secondly, considering the influence of external environmental factors such as temperature on user travel, a travel chain model based on travel intention modification is established. Finally, the selection model of EV charging station based on gravitation model is established. The simulation results show that the proposed model can take into account the interaction of EV, road network, charging station and power grid, and accurately calculate the spatio-temporal distribution of EV charging load, and analyze the characteristics of EV charging demand load in multi-regions.

Pelvik organlar ile perineal yüzeyler arasında birçok mekanizmayla birbirinden farklı apse formasyonları gelişebilmektedir. Anorektal apseler bu hastalıkların en yaygın sebeplerindendir. Klinik olarak daha çok lokal bir enflamasyon şeklinde karşımıza çıksa da, özellikle altta yatan başka patolojiler olduğunda komplikasyonlar ile birlikte seyredebilir. Olguların çoğunda tedavi, drenaj ve antibiyotik tedavisidir. Ancak klinik tabloların anatomik ve terminolojik açıdan sınıflandırılması, tedavi yönetimi ve komplikasyonların takibi açısından çok önemlidir. Bu yazıda, akut batın ve sepsis kliniği ile başvuran periüretral, perivajinal, perirektal boşlukları doldurarak gluteoperineal sahaya yayılan ve vajen lümenine spontan drene olmuş bir anorektal apse olgusu sunuldu.

Objectives: In this study, we present our experience with pilomatrixoma in pediatric patients.

Patients and methods: Between January 2013 and January 2023, a total of 86 children (29 males, 57 females; mean age: 10.8±4.2 years; range, 1 to 18 years) who were diagnosed with pilomatrixoma based on histopathological examination of excisional biopsies were included. Demographic characteristics of the patients, symptoms, location of lesions, radiological imaging results and pathology reports were obtained from the medical records.

Results: The number of patients under the age of 10 diagnosed with pilomatrixoma was 29 (33.7%), while there were 57 (66.2%) patients between 10 and 18 years of age. Eighty-three (88.3%) of our cases were in the form of a single nodule, and three (11.6%) were in the form of multiple nodules. In terms of tumor localization, 38 (42.6%) were located in the head and neck region, 29 (32.5%) in the upper extremities, 14 (15.7%) in the trunk and eight (8.9%) in the lower extremities. One patient (1.1%) was reoperated due to recurrence during postoperative follow-up.

Conclusion: Pilomatrixoma should be surgically excised, as it can be confused with other subcutaneous tumors usually seen in children and adolescents. Its ability to show malignant transformation over time should not be overlooked.

Achalasia is a primary functional motor disorder of the lower esophageal sphincter, characterized by abnormal esophagus motility and failure to relax the lower esophageal sphincter. Herein, we present a case of a two-month-old female infant who was operated on with a diagnosis of achalasia. The baby was born at 39 weeks with cesarean section, with a birth weight of 3180 g, and referred to the pediatric surgery clinic with the suspicion of tracheoesophageal fistula. Physical examination was unremarkable except for malnutrition. The patient had been receiving gastroesophageal reflux treatment since the neonatal period. An upper gastrointestinal series revealed dilatation in the lower two-thirds of the esophagus and a typical bird's beak appearance at the esophagogastric junction. Heller myotomy with Dor fundoplication was performed. The postoperative follow-up was uneventful. The patient presented is one of the youngest children operated with achalasia in the literature. Achalasia should be kept in mind in the presence of frequent pulmonary infections, weight loss, and oronasal regurgitation unresponsive to antireflux therapy.
Big History e historias del tiempo presente. Conceptos en crisis sobre tiempos, espacios y sentidos en el mundo y en Iberoamérica

Published: March 2024

Este trabajo pregunta por una inquietud que atraviesa el lugar de enunciación de la historia como un discurso en crisis frente a la ampliación de su campo de trabajo en medio de una crisis y tensiones entre flujos y clausuras de las dinámicas de interacción.Sobre las relaciones temporales y espaciales es posible interrogar; ¿De qué presente hablamos en una Historia del tiempo presente? ¿Cuáles serían las condiciones espaciales de una historia que vuelve sobre la pretensión de la síntesis global abierta al geosistema? En tal campo, ¿Cuál sería el lugar de enunciación de la historia hispanoamericana en razón ya no de esencias sino de interrelaciones de orden temporales y espaciales?
