Abstract. Osteocutaneous flap (OCF) mandible reconstruction is at
high risk for surgical site infection. This study aimed to describe
diagnosis, management, and outcome of OCF-related osteomyelitis. All
patients managed at our institution for an OCF-related osteomyelitis
following mandible reconstruction were included in a retrospective cohort
study (2012–2019). Microbiology was described according to gold-standard
surgical samples, considering all virulent pathogens, and potential
contaminants if present on at least two samples. Determinants of treatment
failure were assessed by logistic regression and Kaplan–Meier curve
analysis. The 48 included patients (median age 60.5 (IQR, 52.4–66.6) years)
benefited from OCF mandible reconstruction mostly for carcinoma (n=27/48;
56.3 %) or osteoradionecrosis (n=12/48; 25.0 %). OCF-related
osteomyelitis was mostly early (≤3 months post-surgery; n=43/48;
89.6 %), presenting with local inflammation (n=28/47; 59.6 %), nonunion (wound dehiscence)
or sinus tract (n=28/47; 59.6 %), and/or bone or device exposure
(n=21/47; 44.7 %). Main implicated pathogens were Enterobacteriaceae (n=25/41; 61.0 %),
streptococci (n=22/41; 53.7 %), Staphylococcus aureus (n=10/41; 24.4 %), enterococci
(n=9/41; 22.0 %), non-fermenting Gram-negative bacilli (n=8/41;
19.5 %), and anaerobes (n=8/41; 19.5 %). Thirty-nine patients (81.3 %)
benefited from surgery, consisting of debridement with implant retention
(DAIR) in 25/39 (64.1 %) cases, associated with 93 (IQR, 64–128) days of
antimicrobial therapy. After a follow-up of 18 (IQR, 11–31) months, 24/48
(50.0 %) treatment failures were observed. Determinants of treatment
outcomes were DAIR (OR, 3.333; 95 % CI, 1.020–10.898) and an early
infectious disease specialist referral (OR, 0.236 if ≤2 weeks;
95 % CI, 0.062–0.933). OCF-related osteomyelitis following mandibular reconstruction represents
difficult-to-treat infections. Our results advocate for a multidisciplinary
management, including an early infectious-disease-specialist referral to
manage the antimicrobial therapy driven by complex microbiological
documentation.

W poszukiwaniu czynników stymulujących rozprzestrzenianie się polskiego know-how w gospodarce światowej – analiza regresji wielorakiej
Authors: Wachowska Małgorzata , Homa Magdalena
Published: June 2022

Znaczenie wynalazków dla procesów rozwojowych jest tym większe, im częściej wykorzystywane są one przez innych podczas generowania nowej wiedzy. Mając to na względzie, celem artykułu było określenie stopnia, w jakim polskie wynalazki ulegają dyfuzji w gospodarce światowej – który był mierzony częstotliwością ich cytowania – oraz wskazanie czynników leżących u podstaw tego zjawiska. Przeprowadzona analiza regresji wielorakiej na próbie 426 podmiotów oraz 986 międzynarodowych aplikacji patentowych pokazała, że polskie wynalazki mają niewielki wpływ na działalność badawczą innych podmiotów, jako że w niewielkim stopniu są cytowane przez innych, choć wynalazki z fizyki cechuje większa skłonność do cytowania. W toku badań ujawniono także, że spośród czynników branych pod uwagę jedynie większa liczba obcokrajowców w zespole wynalazców przełożyła się na większą liczbę cytowań uzyskiwanych przez polskie wynalazki. Pozostałe czynniki miały albo negatywny wpływ na siłę dyfuzji polskiego know-how (różnorodność etniczna wśród zgłaszających wynalazek do ochrony patentowej, różnorodność etniczna wśród wynalazców, obecność jednostki publicznego sektora B+R wśród zgłaszających), albo nie obserwowano zależności między nimi a liczbą cytowań.
Kolejna korekta czy koniec globalizacji?
Authors: Madej Zbigniew
Published: June 2022

Artykuł zawiera rozważania nad historyczną ewolucją globalizacji w kontekście rywalizacji dwóch koncepcji organizacji gospodarki: opcji propaństwowej i opcji prorynkowej. Autor przyjął założenie, że globalizacja jest trwałą cechą ludzkich dążeń. Na początku czasów nowożytnych tendencja ta splotła się z przemienną dominacją opcji propaństwowych oraz prorynkowych i w takiej postaci występuje do czasów obecnych. Liberalna myśl ekonomiczna wyraziła to przeciwieństwo w formule: rynek versus państwo. W ciągu pięciu minionych wieków wystąpiło pięć etapów przemiennej dominacji opcji propaństwowych i prorynkowych, splecionych z globalizacją. Rozpoczyna je merkantylizm z dużą rolą państwa, a jego antytezą jest wolnokonkurencyjny kapitalizm z XIX wieku. Dwa ostatnie etapy: neoliberalizm z lat 1980–2008 oraz jego antytezę z lat 2009–2019 omówione zostały dość dokładnie. Wcześniejsze etapy potraktowano jako tło historyczne. Analizę poprzedzono szkicem teoretycznego modelu globalizacji połączonej z przemienną dominacją opcji propaństwowych i prorynkowych, który można taktować jako wartość dodaną do dorobku myśli ekonomicznej o wzajemnych relacjach między państwem a rynkiem.
Emotional Factors Hampering Investment in the European OECD Countries

Published: June 2022

W artykule autorzy próbują włączyć się w jedną z najważniejszych dzisiaj dyskusji ekonomicznych dotyczącej osłabienia dynamiki inwestycyjnej na świecie i w Polsce. W światowej literaturze pojawiają się dwa wyjaśnienia tego osłabienia inwestycji: 1) wzrost koncentracji i wykorzystywanie pozycji dominujących na rynkach przez rentowne przedsiębiorstwa niezmuszone do silnej walki konkurencyjnej i inwestowania oraz 2) zwolnienie postępu technicznego, który nie tworzy już tylu okazji inwestycyjnych, jak to było w drugiej połowie XX w. Badając zmiany tzw. wskaźnika BDI (Balanced Development Index), autorzy identyfikują trzecią przyczynę osłabienia inwestycyjnego, którą uważają za najsilniejszą, jaką jest nierównowaga społeczno‑ekonomiczna wielu krajów („emocjonalność”).
COVID‑19 Pandemia from the Financial Perspective: the Interference of Real and Virtual World
Authors: Solarz Jan Krzysztof , Waliszewski Krzysztof
Published: June 2022

Masowe szczepienie ludności w części krajów świata oraz przewaga w tych krajach liczby osób, które wyzdrowiały, nad liczbą tych, które zachorowały, pozwala tam z wolna dzielić czas na przed i po pandemii COVID‑19. Ten dualizm wzmocnił społeczny podział na rzeczywistość
realną i wirtualną. W odczuciu wielu osób nastąpiło naruszenie równowagi między tymi rzeczywistościami. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie na mechanizmy prowadzące do trwałej hybrydyzacji naszej codzienności („nowa normalność”). We wprowadzeniu autorzy systematyzują kontekst, w którym dokonuje się podział ludzkości na zaszczepioną i niezaszczepioną. W punkcie pierwszym przywołują inżynierię tokenów jako metodę przenoszenia aktywów ze świata realnego w wirtualny. W punkcie drugim przypominają finansjalizację jako drogę do uzyskania trwałej przewagi przez świat finansów nad gospodarką realną. Jest to zarazem odejście od całościowych więzi społecznych na rzecz relacji zdalnych, w tym za pośrednictwem pieniądza. W punkcie trzecim autorzy wskazują na technologię blockchain jako mostu (infrastruktury) do dwukierunkowego oddziaływania obu rzeczywistości. W punkcie czwartym pokazują, jak hazard czy spekulacja z udziałem dóbr prestiżowych zapewnia przenoszenie aktywów pozyskanych w świecie wirtualnym do ich wykorzystania w świecie realnym. Zakończenie przypomina tezę opracowania, że zacieranie granic między rzeczywistością realną i wirtualną w czasie pandemii doprowadziło do trwałej hybrydyzacji naszej codzienności.

Effect of Fennel seed: On women health
Authors: D. Divya
Published: June 2022

Fennel seeds, or saunf, have been related to a variety of health benefits and have been used to treat a variety of ailments. It contains several essential nutrients, making it an important spice for weight loss. Fennel seeds are high in fibre, antioxidants, and minerals, all of which are beneficial to fat burning and overall health. Traditionally, the plant was thought to serve as a carminative (helping to control flatulence) and increase breast milk production. (1). It has been reported that this plant can also enhance libido, facilitate birth, alleviate the symptoms of the male climacteric, promote menstrual flow, and soothe indigestion and cough (1). According to herbalists, fennel seed is an effective aid to digestion. It may help the gastrointestinal system's smooth muscles relax, reducing gas, bloating, and stomach cramps. In fact, tinctures or teas made from fennel seeds can be used to treat stomach muscle spasms caused by irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and other conditions affecting the gastrointestinal system. Fennel can also be combined with other herbal medicines to reduce the side effects of herbal formulations used as laxatives or other digestive treatments. Fennel is considered fairly mild, although some people may be allergic to it. It is also possible to overdose on the extracted oils found in fennel. (6) Some studies have found that fennel has an estrogenic effect, which means that it mimics the effects of estrogen. Fennel tea should not be drunk by pregnant or breastfeeding women. People with cancers that are sensitive to estrogen should also avoid the use of fennel.6 Since escarole, a key component of fennel, has been reported as a possible carcinogen, people who have cancer or are at high risk for cancer can restrict or stop drinking fennel tea.

Introduction: Infectious diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi; the diseases can be spread, directly or indirectly, from one person to another.1 These infectious diseases often spread through direct contact that means from person to person. Coming with the contact of body fluids, or any secretions or even the fomites used by the infected person. The feaco-oral route can be summarized into 5fs: - finger, food, fluid, feaces, flies. The main diseases that are caused by feaco-oral route are diarrhoea, cholera, polio, hepatitis.2 The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding the prevention of 5f’s (finger, food, fluid, flies and feaces) disease transmission among mothers of under five children at selected Hospitals of Raipur. Materials and methods: Research approach was quantitative and research design was descriptive research design. 50 samples who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected by non probability convenient sampling technique. The tool used for the collection comprises of 2 sections: section A- demographic variables; section B- A structured questionnaire to assess the knowledge on toilet training among mothers of under 5 children. Data collected were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The analysis of the data regarding the first objective of research, findings reveal that in the study (5) out of 50 mothers who are having children of under five years of age has inadequate knowledge which is 10% of the total data. Further (11) out of 50 mother’s has moderate knowledge which is 22% of total data, (34) out of 50 mother gained adequate knowledge which is more than 68% of total data.

Aim: The aim of the present research is to assess the distribution of the alveolar ridge height (ARH) and compare the values obtained intraorally and from plaster, master-casts poured from two-step final impressions. Materials and methods: For the purpose of this study, 96 patients aged 49-88 were examined between 2016-2019. The research was conducted during the practical classes in prosthetic dental medicine and oral and maxillo-facial surgery at the Faculty of Dental Medicine, Medical University - Sofia. The study methods included an individual interview, observation, palpation, and clinical and laboratory measurements of the ARH in predefined locations. The results were collected in pre-made patientcards. The investigated variables were age, gender, and height of the alveolar ridges in the frontal and distal areas for the upper and lower jaws. Results: The intra oral measurements showed a mean 8.64±2.6mm height of the entire upper jaw with the highest average value obtained in the frontal area – 9.48±2.67 mm. Both distal areas were with comparable heights, demonstrating similar results to the frontal segment, which suggests equability in the atrophic maxilla for our sample. For the entire lower jaw, the intraoral measurements showed a mean score of 4.32±2.09 mm. A similar tendency was observed for the frontal – 5.08±2.20 mm and both distal areas, but with a more pronounced difference between them. There was a significant difference between the intra- and extra-oral measurements averaging at 0.77±68 mm across all values.

Published: June 2022

Contextualização: Historicamente, o direito do trabalho e o direito antitruste mantiveram-se distantes, até que recentes discussões sobre condutas anticompetitivas no âmbito trabalhista começaram a ganhar destaque, sobretudo nos EUA, e em seguida em diversas autoridades de concorrência mundiais.
Objetivo: O presente artigo foca na análise de condutas anticompetitivas, notadamente (i) cartéis de fixação salarial (wage-fixing cartels), (ii) acordos de não contratação de trabalhadores (no poach agreements), (iii) cláusulas de não concorrência nos contratos de trabalho e (iv) trocas de informações sensíveis entre concorrentes sobre termos e condições de trabalho. Portanto, o presente estudo traz uma abordagem interdisciplinar, atualizada em especial entre 2018 e 2022, com referência às recentes experiências internacionais (OCDE, EUA, UE, Portugal, Holanda, Reino Unido, México, Japão e Hong Kong) e discussões sobre o tema no Brasil.
Método: Foi utilizado o método comparativo, em que se buscou avaliar uma grande amostra de casos relacionados à interface entre direito antitruste e direito trabalhista ao redor do mundo, e método exploratório, em que estudos de casos ou artigos sobre o tema foram utilizados.
Resultados: A pesquisa demonstra que o encontro entra direito antitruste e direito do trabalho, há alguns anos considerado improvável, é inescapável.
Conclusões: As autoras concluem que a interface entre antitruste e trabalho deve ser um dos grandes desafios do CADE nos próximos 10 anos.
IMPROVING DIRECT CONVERSION EFFICIENCY MECHANICAL ENERGY INTO HEAT
Authors: VERSHININ A. , GROZBERG Y.
Published: June 2022

In connection with the improvement of the technical characteristics of the produced permanent magnets, they began to be often used in generating electricity and also for converting mechanical energy into thermal energy. In this paper, devices for direct conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy of the induction type with permanent magnets are considered, the reasons for the low conversion efficiency are analyzed, and a search is made for ways to increase the efficiency of these devices. One of the reasons is the presence of air gaps in the magnetic circuits of such converters. The study of the influence of the values of air gaps on the change in magnetic fluxes in an unbranched magnetic circuit with a constant MDF has been carried out, and an approximate dependence Φ= f(δ) has been obtained, which makes it possible to quantitatively assess the degree of this influence. A design diagram of a device for direct conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy of induction type with air heat exchange has been developed, in which air gaps in magnetic circuits are excluded in order to increase the conversion efficiency.

Old and new myocarditis This month’s article allows us to revisit a topic - myocarditis - that has recently come to the attention of pediatricians during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, both in its form with acute myocardial damage and as part of the post-Covid systemic inflammatory manifestations that identify MIS-C (multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children). It is also an opportunity to analyze the most frequent viral causes of acute myocarditis in children, the distinctive elements with myocarditis related to SARS-CoV-2 infection and how MIS-C may represent a possible link between acute myocarditis and Kawasaki disease.
Lo stato di male epilettico in pronto soccorso
Authors: La Fauci Giovanna , Aricò Melodie O. , Bonelli Amedeo , Cazzato Elena , Pagano Giuseppe
Published: June 2022

Convulsive status epilepticus is a relatively frequent event that requires a quick picture of the situation and an early and appropriate treatment with subsequent levels of intervention. It is important that the pediatrician, as well as the emergency room physician or the resuscitator are well aware of the early stages of crisis management, both at the local and hospital level. The final outcome of the event will depend above all on the timeliness and appropriateness of the decisions taken, without forgetting that, sometimes, status epilepticus can originate from acute events that, if present, must also be identified and treated appropriately.
The Rhetoric of Solecisms
Authors: Kominami Yu
Published: June 2022

Melville’s linguistic style is well known for its ungrammatical, or solecistic, sentences, which have long been attributed to his lack of education or inadvertent oversights. Against this conventional view, John Bryant (2001) and Michael S. Kearns (1983) regard grammatical errors in Melville’s full-length novels as rhetorical devices, which urges a broader reconsideration of solecisms in Melville’s short pieces. The metrical aspect of his short story “The Piazza” suggests the author’s acute awareness of rhetorical usage in the story’s construction, and so if solecism is to be regarded as a consciously rhetorical feature of Melville’s style, then his deployment of the device in the story may be taken as evidence of its broader use in his short pieces as well as novels. This article focuses on solecisms in Melville’s “The Piazza,” and argues that their usage is intentional and rhetorical.

Published: June 2022

Este estudo propõe a Tradução Audiovisual Acessível (TAVa) em Libras do discurso de posse do ex-presidente Barack Obama sob o viés funcionalista (NORD, 2016), e sua análise se propõe a compreender os procedimentos tradutórios propostos por Baker (1996). A metodologia seguiu os procedimentos técnicos em Tradução Audiovisual levando em consideração a segmentação retórica como parâmetro para uma recepção confortável. Conforme afirma Nord (2016), os resultados sugeriram que as escolhas tradutórias são determinadas pela cultura e situação do receptor do texto alvo e, numa produção audiovisual, essas escolhas também são influenciados pela harmonização da segmentação retórica.
Thinking, Photographing: A Place-based Approach in Practice-led Research
Authors: Hill Rodrigo
Published: June 2022

The article introduces photography practice as a practice-led research methodology, highlighting photographic conventions and methods as key research approaches. To illustrate these ideas I will foreground examples of my photography practice and other practitioners’. My focus is on research that explores place-based topics in which photography plays the role of generating thinking and place-making. The article positions photography as a complete practice-led research methodology within the academy, contextualising key historical practices and moments in order to propose an expanded model of place representation. I will trace the advancements of photography and its uses during the colonial period, the introduction to landscape and later the progression into tourism photography. As a counter approach to these frameworks, I propose a more nuanced iterative model of place representation capable of rendering multiple place imaginaries. This allows visual artists, practice-led researchers and ethnographers to expand existing research agendas and methodological approaches to place and place-making.

NA ONDA DO PRECONCEITO
Authors: da Cunha e Silva Filho Francisco
Published: June 2022

Este artigo se ocupa do que se poderia denominar “preconceito gramatical”. Trata-se de um brevíssimo ensaio nos estudos de língua portuguesa. Seu fulcro se situa no campo dos usos da língua nos seus diferentes registros: coloquial, normativo, i.e., na escrita e no discurso. O tema me chamou a atenção após leitura de um artigo publicado, em 2011 no jornal O Globo. A minha reação ao artigo se deu diante da afirmação feita por um dos autores do livro didático de título. Por uma vida melhor, cujas cópias eram para ser distribuídas pelo Ministério da Educação. De acordo com o ponto de vista da autora, frases gramaticalmente incorretas, proferidas por alunos e usuários geralmente oriundos de famílias iletradas ou analfabetas funcionais, tais como “Posso falar os livro; Nós pega o peixe etc, etc, etc, (grifos meus), no que diz respeito ao uso do vernáculo, deveriam ser acolhidas pelos professores. Este artigo é uma tentativa de mostrar um ponto de vista contrário diante do tema em discussão.
AS LUTAS PELA INSTITUCIONALIZAÇÃO DO ENSINO DO PORTUGUÊS
Authors: Ranauro Hilma
Published: June 2022

O ensino da língua portuguesa, a escolarização da sua gramática, só vieram a ocorrer efetivamente a partir da reforma decretada por Pombal em 1759. A língua portuguesa é elevada ao status de língua nacional, por intermédio da qual deveria ser ensinado o próprio latim, que era a base de toda a escolaridade do ensino jesuítico, dominante em Portugal por quase duzentos anos.
JUVENAL, UM RETRATO DA SÁTIRA
Authors: Karol Luiz
Published: June 2022

O propósito deste ensaio é entender o personagem Juvenal, escritor satírico do início do século II de nossa era, traçando um perfil a partir de algumas sátiras e dos dados transmitidos pela tradição historiográfica e anedótica. Buscamos aqui comparar a fortuna da personalidade do satírico romano com alguns de seus escritos e submeter, numa apresentação um tanto livre, a imagem resultante a alguns critérios críticos de pensamento, para melhor entender esse escritor latino tão enérgico, tão vivo, e por que não dizer, tão atual, haja vista que, mesmo se debruçando sobre o comportamento humano de sua época, ele traz à luz, na verdade, aspectos da alma do homem comum que podem ser aplicados em quaisquer épocas posteriores da história privada do homem, por conta do caráter abstrato desses aspectos.
O MAPEAMENTO DO TEXTO PELO LEITOR PARA UMA COMPREENSÃO
Authors: Angélica Freire de Carvalho Maria
Published: June 2022

Para a comunicação do leitor com o texto é essencial considerar que há negociações a serem feitas por meio da materialidade verbal, visual ou verbo-visual, sobre a qual o leitor se debruça para acessar conteúdos veiculados indiretamente. Nessa negociação de sentidos integram-se fenômenos cognitivos, representacionais, semânticos e pragmáticos. Para o estudo do texto e suas faces é preciso uma abordagem teórico-conceitual integrada; aqui, destacam-se os estudos desenvolvidos por algumas áreas. À Pragmática importa, dentre outros interesses, refletir sobre a comunicação entre os sujeitos e o alcance da interpretação nesse processo; por essa razão, essa área da Linguística fundamenta as reflexões propostas neste artigo.

Published: June 2022

Aliphatic hydrocarbon n-alkanes, pristane (Pr), and phytane (Ph) were determined in the tissues of sixeconomic freshwater fish species (Luciobarbus xanthopterus, Ctenophyngodonidella, Cyprinus carpio, Tilapia zillii, Palanizaabu, and Leuciscus vorax) collected from the Shatt Al-Arab river. They were analyzed bycapillary gas chromatography - flame ionization detector (GC-FID). The carbon chain lengths of n-alkanesin the fish tissue samples ranged from nC13 to nC36. The highest concentration of the total n-alkanes wasdetected in the filter feeder P. abu tissue (23.14Î¼g/g dry weight) and the lowest concentration was in theomnivorous C. carpio tissue (3.76 Î¼g/g dry weight). The major sources of the n-alkanes, pristanes, andphytanes were from petroleum hydrocarbons based on the results of the molecular biomarker indices andthe ratios of CPI (carbon preference index), Pr/Ph, LMW/HMW (total nC13-C24/total nC25-nC36), nC17/Pr,and nC18/Ph. The percentage of n-alkanes from petroleum related-products ranged from 83.2% to 94.8%,whereas the natural biogenic sources were in the order of bacterial (3.7-11.7%) > higher plant wax (0.0-9.1%) > algal (0.1-1.2%) sources. The occasion of high fractions of n-alkanes and isoprenoids from petroleumhydrocarbons in these fish tissues indicated that the foster habitats were highly contaminated by crude oil.Further studies are required to investigate the bioaccumulation of other anthropogenic contaminants suchas plasticizers, pesticides, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons fresh-water organisms.

Chickungunya is a serious and increasing public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions of theworld. It is caused by a group A virus and transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Among thesigns and symptoms were sudden onset of fever headache, joint pain and swelling, inability to walk, fatigue,muscle pain, rash, nausea, chills, anorexia, lumbago, and conjunctivitis. Prevention is entirely upon takingsteps to avoid mosquito bites and eliminating of mosquito breeding sites. This is a cross-sectional descriptivestudy with the aim to study knowledge, attitude and practice of households was conducted in Kassal State,Sudan. 388 households were recruited for the study. A modified structured questionnaire targetinghouseholds was used to collect data and the collected data were analyzed by using computer softwareprogram (SPSS). The results were presented in text, tables and figures. Although, 49.2% and 93% of theparticipants had knowledge concerning modes of transmissions and causative factors, respectively, 61.45and 50.8% had poor or lack knowledge concerning symptoms and signs and method of prevention ofchickungunya, respectively. 69.6% and 68.1% of the participants had favorable attitudes towards perceivingthe severity of chickungunya and dealing with the infected person, respectively. The majority (84.7%) ofthe participants use mosquitoes net as method of prevention and more than half (53.2%) of the participantswere participating in chickungunya prevention program. Household had lack of in-depth knowledge aboutChickungunya causal factors and methods of prevention. Therefore health education and communityawareness can play a role for the control of Chickungunya epidemic.

Published: June 2022

Marshlands have been considered among the most productive ecosystems on Earth. Marshlands existingin Mesopotamia are recently acknowledged by the United Nations as one of the international heritage sites.The current research highlights the deterioration level in the water quantity of the Al Hammar marshwhich is one of the famous marshes in the south of Iraq. Recently, pipe culverts were constructed to reducethe salinity of the Al Hammar marsh. Data on Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Electric Conductivity (EC), andPower of Hydrogen (pH) from February 2019 to February 2020 at five stations (distributed within Al Hammarmarsh) were used to assess the water quality before and after the construction of pipe culverts. Two standardswere used in the assessment: the Iraqi Water Quality Standard (IWQS, No.417) and the World HealthOrganization (WHO) Standards for drinking, irrigation, and aquatic life. In addition, the quality of ecologicalhealth in the Al Hammar marsh was assessed by using the Canadian Water Quality Index. Results showthat the quality of water in the Al Hammar marsh is not recommended to be used for irrigation while theaquatic life is at a threat level.

Published: June 2022

Geochemical study of seventeen surface soils of the LÃ©vrier Bay used eleven heavy metals to displaydescriptive statistics and to assess the environmental impact of this industrial area. The analysis of elevenheavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cu, Ni, V, Cr, Co, Hg, Cd, As and Mo), major and other trace elements, were performedby ICP-MS. Pollution load Index (PLI) show low degree of contamination. Geochemical Index (Igeo) andenrichment Factor (EF) have been used to assess the environment quality at varied sites in (0-25cm) soils.Results display moderate concentrations for the most of elements excepted the As and Hg which often areupon the amount measured in the UCC baseline. The local presence Hg and As, limited to some sites of thearea, allow to conclude that the soils of the LÃ©vrier Bay didnât suffer from the human activities in the area.

There are no studies where the pupil to limbus diameter ratio was assessed in the underweight individuals. Hence, the present study was undertaken to observe the correlation of pupil to limbus diameter ratio (PLD ratio) with blood pressure and pulse rate in underweight females. A total of 30 underweight females were included in the present study after obtaining voluntary informed consent by convenient sampling. PLD ratio was measured manually by the two-box method. There was a positive correlation between the PLD ratio of the right eye with the blood pressure and pulse rate. However, it was not statistically significant. There was a negative correlation between the PLD ratio of the left eye and pulse rate but it was not statistically significant. There was a positive correlation between the PLD ratio and systolic blood pressure. However, it was not statistically significant. There was a positive correlation between the PLD ratio and diastolic blood pressure. However, it was not statistically significant. The study results suggest the correlation between the PLD ratio and the blood pressure and pulse rate. The insignificant of results may be due to less sample size.

Published: June 2022

A implantação de grandes empreendimentos eólicos no nordeste brasileiro vem causando diversos impactos socioambientais negativos no meio ambiente físico, biológico e socioeconômico dos territórios que recebem essa intervenção tecnológica, dita ambientalmente sustentável. Sob o discurso hegemônico de energia limpa e de diversificação da matriz energética, recursos naturais vêm sendo exauridos e conflitos socioambientais em comunidades tradicionais aumentando em razão da intervenção em suas práticas sociais e em seus modos de vida. Esta pesquisa analisa os efeitos da implantação de um complexo eólico em Icapuí no Ceará. O objetivo principal desta pesquisa é analisar as medidas mitigadoras e as condicionantes exigidas pelo Órgão Ambiental de modo a verificar se de fato contribuem para a minimização dos impactos socioambientais causados às comunidades que sofrem os impactos diretos e indiretos do empreendimento. Através de uma análise qualitativa de pesquisas bibliográficas, de campo e entrevistas busca compreender a percepção da comunidade diretamente impactada sobre as condicionantes impostas pelo órgão ambiental para a concessão das licenças ambientais assim como também dos impactos socioambientais e medidas de mitigação correspondentes propostas pelo Estudo de Impacto Ambiental apresentado pelo empreendedor.
