Published: April 2022

Protecting the health of workers cannot be achieved without the workers having adequate knowledge of hazards in their workplace. Knowledge of these hazards can be affected by several factors. Discovering the factors that affect knowledge will help in instituting measures to ensure that the workers have adequate knowledge. This study aimed to assess the socio-demographic determinants of health hazards awareness among welders in Maiduguri Borno State, Nigeria. A questionnaire was used to obtain information from 295 welders choosen through a systematic random sampling technique. The socio-demographic determinants measured include age, educational attainment, length of practice, type of training received and use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequencies and percentages, and inferential statistics of Chi-square. Data indicated 66.22% of the respondents as having a high awareness of health hazards associated with their work.  In addition, the chi-square test revealed that awareness of health hazards was positively influenced by age of the respondents, educational attainment, length of practice (experience) and type of training received. There was no association between awareness of health hazards and the use of PPE in the study area. The study, therefore, recommends the need for the government to have a proper health education session for this economically viable group on the health effects of these workplace hazards as this will contribute to the reduction of work-related injuries, as most of the welders are after the economic benefit derived from the occupation while the health hazard is grossly disregarded.

Soil and crop management such as chemical fertilizer applications hurt the soil’s biological quality and productivity. The most well-known organic fertilizer such as animal manure, compost and mycorrhizal fungi are significantly contributing to soil organic carbon sink and consequently, organic fertilizers have a positive effect on the soil biological diversity and productivity. To increase soil carbon content, long-term organic fertilizer applications increase soil carbon budget hypothesis was tested under field conditions. The aim is to investigate the effects of different organic and inorganic fertilizer applications on the soil and wheat plant carbon and nitrogen content. A long-term field experiment was established in 1996 until the present time. In 2018, before cultivation control, Mineral fertilizer (NPK), Animal manure (25 ton ha-1), Compost (25 ton ha-1) and Compost+Mycorrhiza (10 ton ha-1) were applied. Adana-99 varieties of wheat seeds were sown. After harvest, soil and plant samples were taken and soil-plant carbon-nitrogen analyses were made. Results show that C % and N % contents of the plant seed, shoot, and root have higher concentrations than that of the control treatment. When the TC %, OC %, and N % contents of the soil at different depths (0-15 cm and 15-30 cm) and in the rhizosphere (R) and no rhizosphere (NR) area were examined, compost and animal manure treatments have higher content. At the rhizosphere area 0-15 cm depth the soil % OC, and % IC contents were statistically significant. The highest values of soil OC %, C: N and IC % contents at Rhizosphere 0-15 cm depth were obtained in animal manure with 2.94 %, 10.06, and 3.90 % respectively. Organic fertilizers application increased soil TC %, OC % and N% contents as well as contribute to the carbon and nitrogen budget. The results found support our hypothesis.

Growth analysis is considered a valuable method for quantitative assessment of growth, development, and agricultural crop development as well as a powerful method for measuring/estimating long term photosynthesis net assimilation/production. Among growth-related parameters/characteristics, the value of dry matter is considered a determining factor due to higher economic importance. The pattern of dry matter/weight distribution in different plant parts is followed by agricultural crops development stages. Studies of growth and dry matter accumulation in different agricultural crops show that dry matter production is dependent/ related to leaf area index, solar radiation interception during growth stages, and plant utilization of solar radiation. The experiment was carried out in a factorial-RBD design with three replications at research farm of Gorgan Natural Resources and Agricultural Sciences University located at 5 Km to Kordkoy-Gorgan old street. The sown radish cultivar was Vikima which is a short-duration variety, market-choice and of small aerial canopy volume. The plot size was 4 m2 and each compromised of 10 rows. Row to row distance and plant to plant distance were 20 and 5 cm, respectively. 400 seeds were sown in each plot. Generally, with an assessment of the study traits variability, it could be concluded that radish Vikima cultivar by 5th leaf emergence, till day 27, produces leaf in an identical sequence. Later on, from day 37 onwards it produces leaves at a high-rate pace and from day 34 the tuber root which increases its diameter, length, and volume uniformly at the same time with the leaf expansion, starts rapidly to increase its fresh and dryness weights. Further, the weight gaining of tuber roots will start from day 34 onwards. In addition, based on found equations, variation of each study trait can be predicted from sowing time till 45 days.

In many tropical, subtropical, and Mediterranean countries, eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is a traditional vegetable crop. Its yield loss is caused by abiotic stress such as soil and water salinity. The main aim of this study was to investigate the salt tolerance potential of selected genotypes at the early stage (germination and seedling) of plant growth. To identify the stable source, 30 accessions of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) were screened. Two genotypes [IC354140 (GT25); IC 354562 (GT26)] had the highest seed germination (90-100%) among the 30 genotypes studied. As a result, these two eggplant genotypes were chosen for further research. GT25 and GT26 seedlings were treated with various salt concentrations when they were 30 days old (0, 25mM, 50mM, 75mM, 100mM, 125mM, 150mM). The data of the present study revealed that germination percentage reduced significantly (35%) in GT26 compared to GT25 with increasing levels of salinity (EC, pH). Eggplant seedling length, dry and fresh weight of radicle and hypocotyls, the number of leaves decreased with increasing soil pH and increasing soil EC (P < 0.001). With increasing salt, the overall chlorophyll and flavonoid contents gradually dropped. SOD and POD antioxidant were increased with salt stress. The stability of the Eggplant (biomass production) and the quality of the leaves are both affected by soil salinity (antioxidant compounds).

The significantly highest plant height (198.06 cm) was measured for treatment 120 kg N/ha and the lowest plant height (162.6 cm) was measured for treatment 0 kg N/ha at 95 days after sowing. Likewise, significantly shortest period to tasseling (74.3 days) and silking (78.0 days) under the application of 120 kg N/ha but at par with treatment 90 kg N/ha (75.1 days) and (78.7days) respectively and longest period to tasseling (79.7 days) and silking (85.4 days) under the application of 0kg N/ha but at par with treatment 30 kg N/ha (78.7) and (84.6 days) respectively was obtained. Similarly, the highest grain yield (3.7 t/ha) was obtained for treatment 120 kg N /ha which was significantly higher than all other treatments but at par with treatment 90 kg N/ha (3.5 t/ha) and the lowest grain yield (1.5 t/ha) was obtained for treatment 0 kg N/ha which was significantly lower than all other treatments but at par with treatment 30 kg N/ha (1.8t/ha). Overall study shows that almost all parameters of spring maize increase significantly with the increasing dose of nitrogen up to 90kg/ha. But no significant difference was observed on yield and yield attributes while increasing the nitrogen dose from 90 to 120 kg/ha. Thus, for the optimum and sustainable production of spring maize, 90 kg N/ha can be used as a recommended dose in Madichaur, Rolpa.

An Unknown Inspiration for Willy Loman? Similarities between Arthur Miller’s Willy Loman and Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Katerina Ivanovna
Authors: Reinking Brian
Published: April 2022

abstract

This article features the writing of five high school seniors as they examine an unrecognized inspiration for Arthur Miller’s Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman. The young scholars argue that Katerina Ivanovna in Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment may have provided a literary model for the aging American salesman. The students cite biographical information to establish Miller’s reading of Crime and Punishment, and they analyze both texts to demonstrate that Katerina’s delusions of grandeur, her clinging to the past, her manipulation of her children, her jealousy and desperation may have burned a character type into Miller’s young mind.
Staging Hollywood Scandal
Authors: Gautreau Justin
Published: April 2022

This essay recovers Carroll and Garrett Graham's forgotten Hollywood novel Queer People (1930). I argue that the Graham brothers conceived of their novel not as a literary masterpiece but as a backdoor entrance into studio writing departments. Rather than assuming an audience of outsiders, as the Hollywood novel had tended to do, the Grahams wrote Queer People primarily to catch the attention of industry insiders. Like their protagonist's unconventional route to fame, they hoped their bold novel would lead to more respect and opportunity around town. Although Queer People was nearly adapted into a Hollywood film, it ultimately fell into obscurity as the industry kept it from ever reaching the screen.

Published: April 2022

This intimate conversation with Emmy Award winner and Tony Award nominee Keith David traverses his expansive career and the invaluable lessons he has gleaned along the way: performance craftwork, author’s intent, and finding the humanity in each character toward exploring the human condition. At the heart of his success is thoughtful artistry, which has helped him craft longevity in the television and film industry. Keith David’s perspective on the craft is deeply rooted in the text and consists in “finding a kind of engaged objectivity”—his desire and ability to tap into the tone of each story he encounters. This interview explores David’s remarkable credits from his iconic ensemble performance in Oliver Stone’s Platoon to his more recent critically acclaimed lead role in OWN’s Greenleaf, from his numerous television, feature film, and theatrical appearances, to his award-winning documentaries, animated features, video gaming, and commercials.

A Critical Analysis of Government Subsidies in India – Special Reference to Non-Merit Subsidies
Authors: Sharma Sunita , Lomror Mahendra
Published: April 2022

Subsidy is a simple fiscal tool, obtainable to the policy makers, to assist promotes production, employment and social welfare. All countries, irrespective of their financial systems, have been using this tool, according to the objectives and conditions that exist in their personal economies. The taxes and subsidies, which are in strength are apprehensive with counteractive measures that could be instituted in theory to bring marginal private costs, or benefits, more closely into arrangement with marginal social ones. Subsidy refers to the concession given by the government to make accessible the important items to the public at inexpensive prices, which is frequently much below the cost of producing such things. Specific entities or those can collect these subsidies in the form of tax rebate or cash payment. This helps to keep necessary items such as food, fuel, fertilizers within the reach of deprived people.
Intracerebral hemorrhage of basal ganglia, surgical management through transinsular transylvian approach. case report
Authors:   Almenara Hospital ESSALUD, Rojas Giuseppe , Flores Jesús
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage is a life-threatening disease of global importance, with a poor prognosis and few effective treatments. For supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage, early evacuation (<24 hours after hemorrhage onset) with standard craniotomy is considered lifesaving in deteriorating patients. In cases where the hemorrhage is less than 1 cm from the cortical surface, the clinical benefit is even greater. Clinical case: We present the case of a 56-year-old obese male patient with a history of high blood pressure who was admitted with an extensive intracerebral hematoma in the basal ganglia of the right hemisphere. A right frontoparietotemporal craniotomy was performed, with the opening of the Sylvian fissure and approach through the insula, managing to evacuate the hematoma. The initial evolution was stationary, so it was necessary to remove the bone platelet, thereby achieving a favorable evolution, then performing the cranioplasty. Conclusion: Surgical treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage of the basal ganglia through the transylvian transinsular approach has shown good results in several case series in terms of evacuation degree and functional outcome. In addition, this approach spares the frontal and temporal cortex, sometimes avoiding a decompressive craniectomy and its complications Keywords: Cerebral Hemorrhage, Hematoma, Decompressive Craniectomy, Basal Ganglia (source: MeSH NLM)

Authors:   María Auxiliadora Hospital, Lima, Peru, Vilca Marcos , Melgarejo Marco , Bautista Ermitaño , Palacios Carlos , Villareal Yuriko
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare type of cerebrovascular disease that can occur at any age and represents 0.5% to 1.5% of the total.1 Superior sagittal venous sinus thrombosis (SSVST) secondary to brain injury (BTI) is reported worldwide only as single cases or in small series.3,4 Headache is the most frequent symptom (90%). The most common focal signs are aphasia and hemiparesis. Papilledema occurs in 25% of cases and epilepsy in about 40%.1,4 Diagnosis is made by venous phase angiography, or by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with gadolinium or computed tomography (CT)1,2. Clinical Case: 23-year-old woman who suffers a traffic accident as a passenger. He presented explosive vomiting, loss of consciousness and seizures, brain CT showed multiple bifrontal contusions, midline deviation> 5mm, cisternae of the base obstructed, Glasgow Coma Scale of 6. A decompressive craniectomy was performed and then he was transferred to ICU for management of intracranial hypertension. She presented with hydrocephalus, nervous system infection (ventriculitis) and superior sagittal venous sinus thrombosis. Conclusion: SSVST post BTI is a rare cause of SSVST, but potentially dangerous if not diagnosed early. The magnitude of the trauma does not correlate with the appearance of VST. The most common symptom is headache, followed by seizures and signs of targeting, which correlate with lesions in the brain parenchyma.

Nosocomial infections in neurosurgery: a study of incidence, associated factors and etiology. Cayetano Heredia Hospital. April 2020 - March 2021
Authors:   Cayetano Heredia Hospital, Peru, Castro Elder , Rodriguez Rómulo
Published: April 2022

Objectives: To determine the incidence, associated factors, and etiology of nosocomial infections (NI) in patients hospitalized in a neurosurgery service. Methods: Descriptive, retrospective, and cross-sectional study in patients 18 years of age and older, hospitalized in the Neurosurgery Service of Hospital Cayetano Heredia (HCH), between April 2020 and March 2021. Data were collected from medical records, registry care diary, and the HCH laboratory computer system. Results: Of the total number of patients (n=116), the male sex (73.28%) and the age between 18 to 59 years (73.28%) predominated. 35.34% had at least one NI, being the most common pneumonia (18.97%) and surgical site infections (SSI) 18.10%. NI were associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) (p=0.005), spinal cord trauma (SCI) (p=0.020), surgery (p=0.032), stay in Intensive Care Units (ICU) (p=0.000), hospital stay greater than seven days (p=0.000) and mortality (p=0.049). Pneumonia was associated with all the above factors, except trauma and surgery; while SSIs were associated with these factors except for SCI, the performance of surgery, and mortality. Gram-negative agents and enterobacteria were the most frequent in SSIs (72.73%) and pneumonia (94.74%). Conclusions: NIs occurred in a third of the patients; increasing in those with traumatic pathology, undergoing surgery, admitted to the ICU, and prolonged hospital stay; thereby increasing mortality. It is unavoidable to consider the presence of Gram-negatives and enterobacteria when using antimicrobials in the treatment of NI in neurosurgical patients.

Root canal treatment is a frequently performed dental procedure and is carried out on teeth in which irreversible pulpitis has led to necrosis of the dental pulp. The speciality of endodontics encompasses numerous elements, but the use of a variety of instruments to shape root canal systems probably challenges the clinical time of practitioners more than any other. Removal of the necrotic tissue remnants and cleaning and shaping of the root canal are important phases of root canal treatment. Treatment options include the use of hand and rotary instruments and methods using ultrasonic or sonic equipment. Rotary root canal instruments manufactured from nickel-titanium alloy have proved to be a valuable adjunct for root canal therapy. But in certain cases such as in the presence of curved root canals hand filing becomes necessary. This article aims to explore various methods and instruments used in cleaning and shaping of Root canal system.

Removable dentures provide edentulous patients with the rehabilitation of masticatory and esthetic functions. Denture stomatitis is the most prevailing situation that has existed for long time in denture wearers.  The etiopathogenesis of denture stomatitis is multifactorial and complex to understand. Candida species are normal oral commensals present in 30% to 70% of apparently healthy persons.The combination  of  entrapment  of  yeast  cells  in irregularities  in  denture-base  and  denturerelining  materials,  poor  oral  hygiene  and several  systemic  factors  is  the  most  probable cause  . Candida albicans that adhere to the surfaces of prostheses results in pathogenesis of denture stomatitis. Therefore to control denture stomatitis, it is important to control the adhesion of Candida albicans on the surface of the prosthesis.Hence  colonization  and  growth  on  prostheses by  Candida  species  are  of  clinical  importance. Certain trends are followed in the management of denture stomatitis to maintain oral cavity in healthy state.

Retinol (Vitamin A), is a well-known supplement for the repair of the wound, cell growth, and good vision. Through its implication in immune function is well established, further its recommendation as a supplement during the prognosis from infection along with antibacterial substances is still uncertain. Our study aims at understanding its anti-inflammatory effect on some known inflammatory markers, blood from a Healthy donor was collected for isolation of PBMCs and further induced with or without LPS (E. coli and Klebsiella). After 18 h of incubation, mRNA was isolated for qRT PCR quantification and studied for its effect. Retinol had good inhibitory action on genes under study such as IL6, TNFα, NFκB, SAA, TLR4, PNOC which are known to be pro-inflammatory in presence of LPS. Whereas its action on IL10 a well-known anti-inflammatory cytokine is contradictory to its suppressive action. Indicating its role as an anti-inflammatory supplement that can hold the expression of many mediators participating in inflammation and aid in controlling inflammation-led cytokine Strom.
