Published: March 2020

Background: The resultant effect of a gunshot injury is mostly severe bleeding which leads to hypovolemic shock;a condition that is characterized by inadequate delivery of oxygen to vital organs.

Objective: Present study had focused on the prevalence of gunshot wounds, alsoclinical consequencesdepending on differences in anatomical sites, age, gender with management strategies accordingly.

Materials and Methods: The study design is retrospective in nature with quantitative approach and the study reviewed the data in the registers beginning from January to December 2017. Demographic data of the patients, anatomical sites of injuries, and findings of clinical outcomes had been retrospectively evaluated.

Results: 1145 patients having gunshot wounds (GSW)had been included in the study (M/F= 1067 (93%)/78 (7%)). Average incidence of head injuries had been found as 8,75% which had showed a peak rate during May with a percentage of 11%. Thoracic injuries which had an average incidence of 11,3% had the highest rates during May, January, February and June. Abdominal injuries had showed a steady decline beginning from January (24%) till June (20%) with having least percentage of injury during May (13%).Only 10% of healthcare workers were among educated first aiders who transported the patients. Meanwhile,the majority had consisted of non-educatedones who took the patients to the hospital at the largest proportion of the casualties which include families, friends and close relatives. Mortalities (n=87 (8%)) were attributed mostlyto abdominaln=18 (21%), thoracic n=16 (18%), lower limbn=16 (18%)) and head n=14 (16%) injuries withdecreasing frequency.

Conclusions: Deaths due to gunshot wounds (GSW) had been reported highestamong young aged population who are between 21 and 40 years of age. Considering that only 10% of rescue teams were among educated health care givers, this actual rate of mortality given in the present study can be lowered much more if the state can provide more educated staff, and also more fundamental first-care educations could be given for the public as well.

Authors: Benyagoub Elhassan , Benchaib S Mohamed , Zaalan Abdelmadjid , Bendada Farah
Published: March 2020

Background: The microbial infections represent a real public health problem with considerable individual and economical consequences. Their surveillance has become, in recent decades, an essential element of any program to control these infections.

Aim: In this study, we estimated the prevalence and frequencies of some microbial infections amongst the Bechar’s community (Algeria).

Methods: The microbiological analyzes of various pathological samples namely : urine and vaginal discharge, pus, nipple discharge, originally sampled from throat, otitis discharge and effusion liquid, have been carried out in the medical analysis laboratory of Bechar for seven months.

Results: The obtained results showed that out of 1458 samples, 506 cases were positive (34.7 %), for some infections, there is a relationship correlation between the infections’ frequency and their prevalence with the age and gender of patients, as factors; which the female gender presents 74.7 % of positive cases, a sex-ratio less than 1; besides, the most affected population is aged between 25 and 39 years old. The isolated microbial species, which are the most incriminated agents responsible for the studied infections, were mainly Escherichia coli with an isolation frequency of 87.15 %, followed by coagulase-positive Staphylococci CoPS (5.13 %), Streptococcus sp (3.16 %), fungal species Candida albicans (1.58 %), Coagulase-negative Staphylococci Co NS (1.18 %). However, less than 2 % of infectious agents were recorded for the bacterial strains P. aeruginosa, K. pneumoniae and Enterococcus sp.

Conclusion : This study can provide a platform for an effective prevention strategy and can be useful for epidemiological prediction with a decision-making.

Authors: Rahman Md Mizanur , Mizan Sharmin , Safii Razitasham binti , Ahmad Sk Akhtar
Published: March 2020

Background and Objective: With the growing concern over treatment cost in health care and the desire to improve the effectiveness and equality of healthcare financing and the quality of the care, policy-makers have turned their attention to health insurance, especially, for the poor. This study attempted to determine the willingness to pay for health insurance among the mothers who utilized the urban primary health care clinic (UPHCC) for maternal and child health.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the working areas of UPHC Project in Bangladesh following two-stage cluster sampling technique to select the participants. Data were collected from 3949 women aged 15-49 years having at least one child aged two years or less. The data on willingness to pay for health insurance was collected using the contingent valuation method with bidding style. Data analysis was done by SPSS 22.0 version. Two generalized linear models with binary logit link function and normal identity link function were developed to identify the potential predictors for willingness to pay for monthly health insurance.

Results: Three-fifths (67.5%) of the respondents agreed to pay for monthly health insurance. The median monthly premium for health insurance was BDT 15.5. Multivariate analysis revealed that utilization of UPHC clinic, quality of life, family size, age, wealth index, level of education, husband and respondent’s occupation, ownership status of the house, religion and family income appeared to be potential predictors for health insurance (p<0.05). However, utilization of UPHC clinic and quality of life appeared to be important predictors across all the models.

Conclusion: A large proportion of the community agreed to pay premium for health insurance. Based on the finding of the current study the policy makers might consider introducing a scheme for health insurance especially among the urban poor.

Objective: Autologous peripheral blood haemopoietic stem cell (PBSC) transplantation is a standard therapeutic option for eligible patients with lymphoproliferative disease (LPD). The prerequisite for autologous PBSC transplantation is the successful stem cell mobilization. This study is aimed to determine the factors associated with poor PBSC mobilization in LPD patient at our center.

Materials and methods: This retrospective record review involved 39 multiple myeloma (MM) and 92 of lymphoma patients who had undergone PBSC mobilization from January 2009 until December 2016. Patients were mobilized with combination chemotherapy and granulocyte colony stimulating factor. Factors affecting mobilization including patient’s, disease and treatment characteristics werestudied.

Results: Majority of patients were Malay (93.9%) with the mean age at mobilization of 41.4 years. The mean of CD34+ cell dosage was 9.6x106 cells/kg. Successful and poor mobilization was found to be 90.8% and 9.2% respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that the significant risk factors for poor mobilization were age of ≥ 60 years (adjusted OR=38.43, p=0.005) and PB CD34+ cell count, <20 cells/uL (adjusted OR=132.69, p<0.001).

Conclusion:PB CD34+ cell count and age ≥ 60years were the main risk factors for poor PBSC mobilization. Thus, alternative strategies of mobilization is needed to reduce risk of poor mobilization in a such group of patient.

Published: March 2020

This study aimed to investigate effects of shenkang injection on angiogenesis in mice with renal fibrosis. C57BL/6J mice after unilateral ureteral obstruction were administrated with different doses of shenkang injection for two weeks. Losartan-administrated mice and Sham-operation mice were as positive and negative controls, respectively. Renal function and vasculature changes were observed, and expressions of VEGF and VEGFR2 were detected. Shenkang injection reduced serum levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine and cystatin C. Shenkang injection alleviated the loss of microvessels, decreased the deposition of collagen fibers, and increased expressions of VEGF and VEGFR2 in the obstructed kidney. These findings indicate that shenkang injection alleviates renal dysfunction and fibrotic changes in mice with renal fibrosis by regulating renal angiogenesis.

Published: March 2020

The effect of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) on the spectral luminescence properties of homogeneous optically transparent mesostructured silica films of SiO2/P123/Rh6G/Fe3O4, containing {P123 (Rh6G)} micelles consisting of Pluronic 123 with encapsulated Rh6G, and formed in stationary magnetic fields (MF) with an induction of less than 500 mT, was investigated. It was shown that, unlike SiO2/P123/Rh6G, the spectral and luminescent properties of SiO2/P123/Rh6G/Fe3O4 films depend on the MF used during their formation, and a gradual decrease in the band intensities in Rh6G spectra and quenching of luminescence with increasing of MF induction was observed. It is associated with a decrease in the monomer fraction and an increase in the fraction of non-luminescent Rh6G H-aggregates in micelles due to the interaction intensifying in the MF (formation of Fe3+ -O bonds) of superparamagnetic NPs with micelles {P123 (Rh6G)}, oriented in the MF, which leads to a gradual deformation of micelles and accumulation in them of H-aggregate. The dependences of the changes in the absorption bands intensity and fluorescence of the monomeric form of Rh6G in the spectra of the films on the changes in the magnetic induction of the MF are described by an exponential function, and the ratio of the fluorescence intensities of the SiO2/P123/Rh6G films to the fluorescence intensities of the SiO2/P123/Rh6G/Fe3O4 films linearly depends on the induction of MF, which they are able to "remember", which is manifested in the values of fluorescence intensities.

Published: March 2020

This article highlights attitudinal analysis which can be used to predict the students’ accomplishment in their study. Analyzing the learners’ attitudes can possibly improve the validity of evaluation which is generally conducted by both lecturers and administrators either during the recruitment or in the teaching/learning process. Besides, this attempt can also be used to predict the students’ potential accomplishment when learning in IPDN.

Attitude, which is commonly defined as a behavioral tendency to act in certain patterns, is very important to be analyzed in order to allow the lecturers to have more objective description of the students’ behavior and their potential accomplishment.

If this thoroughly applied, attitudinal analysis will not only allow the lecturers and other related staffs to evaluate the good quality candidates, but also allow them to assess the students’ potential success.

In line with the continuously increasing demand of the society toward the officials who have more integrity, analyzing attitudes can help select those having good quality, more integrity, and being more prepared in serving the society.

Authors: Oreiro José Luis da Costa
Published: March 2020

This paper aims at analysing the challenges that will be faced by the President of the Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, in her second term in office. We argue that the fundamental challenge to the federal government is to restore the dynamism of the manufacturing industry, which requires a significant, nevertheless gradual, real exchange rate devaluation. Thus, the necessary government budget adjustment must be focused on tax increases in the short term and on the containment of the growth pace of the government current spending.

An Interpretation of Controversial Points in Keynes's General Theory
Authors: Possas Mario Luiz
Published: March 2020

The paper offers an interpretation of the General Theory based on two main assumptions:  (i) that its core is heterodox (meaning far from Neoclassical references) and (ii) that, while not working out a dynamic model, it is neither static nor based on the notion of equilibrium in the usual sense, i.e. as an attractor. It amounts rather to a foreword to a dynamic theory, given its emphasis on (future) time and expectations. The exposition is centered on the division between short and long run (period) with corresponding particularities and distinctions.  In the first case, a more general concept of the principle of effective demand is proposed, from which the relation investment/savings, supply and demand functions at the Micro level – where basic variables are determined -, the “point of effective demand” and corresponding aggregative versions are interpreted. In the second case, investment decisions are examined on the light of chap. 17, concerning investment in capital assets, i.e. individual demand for assets. The central concept of uncertainty is introduced here, giving place to money as an asset as well as to liquidity preference and the rate of interest theories. Long term expectations under uncertainty give rise to other two key concepts – the state of confidence and the convention. As a result, his peculiar and crucial notion of instability of investment follows, as well as its extension to the capitalist economy as a whole.

Published: March 2020

The objective of this paper is to analyze the dynamics of financial flows towards the BRICS in the period 2000-2010. Particularly, the paper examines the impacts of the capital controls adopted by each economy on the movements of specific types of capital registered in their financial accounts. The idea is to show that, regarding financial dynamics, the economies of the BRICS present peculiar characteristics that should be taken into account in the formulation of strategies for global financial regulation. To accomplish this goal, Minsky’s theoretical framework is used as background; the cycles of international liquidity are discussed as well as their impact on the behavior of capital flows toward emerging economies, specially the BRICS. The empirical analysis allows us to highlight the importance of an adequate capital management to attract long-term financial flows that are able to contribute to the productive growth of these economies.
Framing Financial Markets: A Methodological Account
Authors: Dow Sheila
Published: March 2020

The way in which financial markets are framed depends on who is doing the framing, although there are reflexive interdependencies between these framings. The underlying argument of the paper is that the way in which financial markets are framed in theory should reflect the different framings in the economy, and that this may benefit from input from other disciplines. Mainstream economics frames financial markets as archetypical competitive markets, focusing on prices as the key information on which to base analysis. This follows from traditional positivist methodology where computability is the key to theory appraisal. Central banks draw on this analysis for their own framing, but modify it significantly in the face of the requirement to take decisions under palpable uncertainty; some understanding is perceived to be necessary for prediction. Increasingly their role is seen as manipulating expectations in order to achieve inflation targets. Participants in financial markets in turn employ quantitative models for forming their expectations; in conditions of market turbulence the limits to these models become evident, and indeed material to prices themselves. Further, for these participants, markets are a social phenomenon. Finally the households whose experience of financial markets enables or constrains spending frame financial markets in yet another way. Understanding of these various framings would benefit from recourse to other disciplines, notably psychology, sociology and rhetoric. But methodological approach is critical for how these inputs can enhance theorising, as exemplified by the difference between the old and new behavioural economics.
Componentes macroeconômicos e estruturais da crise brasileira: o subdesenvolvimento revisitado
Authors: Rossi Pedro , Mello Guilherme
Published: March 2020

O objetivo desse ensaio é elaborar um diagnóstico da desaceleração e crise da economia brasileira a partir dos seus elementos macroeconômicos e estruturais. Argumenta-se que os erros na condução da política econômica, presentes na maioria dos diagnósticos sobre a desaceleração, devem ser considerados no âmbito de condicionantes estruturais que caracterizaram o ciclo de crescimento da economia brasileira nos anos recentes. Esse ciclo amenizou características típicas do subdesenvolvimento apontadas por Furtado; i) ao modernizar os padrões de consumo de uma parcela importante da população e ii) ao melhorar qualitativamente o mercado de trabalho reduzindo o desemprego e a informalidade. No entanto, o modelo de crescimento não logrou i) modernizar a estrutura produtiva de forma a sustentar as transformações do lado da demanda e ii) incluir a mão de obra em setores de maior produtividade. Nesse sentido, o ciclo de crescimento que marcou os governos dos partidos dos trabalhadores não superou entraves estruturais, apenas reconfigurou alguns aspectos do nosso subdesenvolvimento.
Rethinking monetary theory in light of Keynes and the crisis
Authors: Lavoie Marc
Published: March 2020

The purpose of the present paper is to examine the main changes that have occurred or that need to occur in monetary economics, and to do this in light of what Keynes told us 80 years ago in his General Theory, or even more than 85 years ago when he wrote the Treatise on Money.  Inflation targeting and central bank independence are re-examined, as are the standard views of the money multiplier and of the fractional-reserve system. Unconventional monetary policies, although previously suggested by Keynes, appear to be a disguised return to Monetarism and the actual impact of quantitative easing must be understood in light of a theory of endogenous money with monetary implementation occurring within a framework where the target interest rate is set at the floor of the corridor.

Design and Experimental Characterization of an Actuation System for Flow Control of an Internally Blown Coanda Flap
Authors: Wierach Peter , Petersen Jan , Sinapius Michael
Published: March 2020

The focus of the work is on the evaluation, development and integration of a robust actuator system for three-dimensional flow control of a blown Coanda flap to improve the high lift system of commercial aircraft. As part of the research work presented, the system is integrated into a wind tunnel model in order to influence the flow across the entire width of the model. The system developed is based on individual bending transducers that can vary the height of the blowing slot dynamically. The system is divided into 33 segments and is therefore able to implement static and dynamic actuation along the wing-span (3D-actuation). All segments can be controlled independently and thus offer great optimization potential for an effective flow control. Different configurations were developed and evaluated against each other with respect to the demanding requirements (small installation space, frequency range from 5 Hz to 300 Hz, 1 bar pressure, 0.4 mm deflection, 1 m span). The design of the blown flap has been specified in an iterative design process. In the final configuration, all mechanical components are reduced to the bare minimum for weight reduction reasons, in order to meet the dynamic requirements of the wind tunnel model. To characterize the lip segments, a test device has been designed that can be pressurized to generate aerodynamic loads on the lip segments. Finally, 33 lip segments were integrated into a wind tunnel model and tested intensively as part of a measurement campaign. The first aerodynamic results show an increase in lift of up to ∆Ca = 0.57. These aerodynamic gains are achieved at amplitudes that do not require the lip segments to completely close or open the blowing slot, which shows the advantage of the current lip design that enables activation with independently controlled stationary and unsteady components.
Effect of Molecular Weight of Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus) Skin Collagen Peptide Fractions on Zinc-Chelating Capacity and Bioaccessibility of the Zinc-Peptide Fractions Complexes in Vitro Digestion
Authors: Chen Lei , Shen Xuanri , Xia Guanghua
Published: March 2020

To investigate the effect of the molecular weight of tilapia skin collagen peptide fractions on their zinc chelation capacity and the bioaccessibility of their zinc complexes, we evaluated the zinc-chelating ability of different molecular weight peptide, the solubility, and the stability of the complexes during simulated in vitro digestion. Low molecular weight peptide (P1) exhibited a higher zinc-chelating ability, which can be attributed to the variety of metal chelate amino acid residues. The highest solubility and the lowest release of zinc during peptic digestion for the P1-zinc complex and the zinc binding to P1 were retained at approximately 50% after peptic-pancreatic digestion. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated the primary involvement of the N-H group in all peptide-zinc complexes. This finding suggests that low molecular weight peptidefraction with strong zinc chelation ability can be used as delivery agents to improve zinc bioaccessibility.
Research on a Safety Assessment Method for Leakage in a Heavy Oil Gathering Pipeline
Authors: Zhang Peng , Chen Xiangsu , Fan Chaohai
Published: March 2020

At present, the number of oil and gas gathering and transportation pipelines is numerous, and leakage accidents occur frequently. Each year, due to pipeline failure, there are immeasurable consequences for people and the environment around the affected pipelines. In order to reduce the risk of leakage accidents in heavy oil gathering pipelines and prevent the occurrence of major spills, it is of great significance to carry out safety assessments of them. However, failure data of these pipelines is seriously deficient and statistical methods used to evaluate pipeline safety are incompatible. Therefore, this paper proposes a risk assessment system for heavy oil gathering pipelines in the absence of failure data. Firstly, a Bayesian network (BN) for the leak safety evaluation of heavy oil gathering pipelines is established via mapping from a bow-tie (BT) model. Then, information diffusion theory is combined with fuzzy set theory to obtain the failure probability of each factor affecting the pipeline failure, and then the failure probability of the pipeline is obtained by the full probability formula. In addition, in order to assess the extent of consequences due to accidents, variable fuzzy set theory is used to comprehensively consider the consequences of the leakage of heavy oil gathering pipelines. Finally, the above two parts are combined to form a safety assessment system to realize risk management and control for pipelines, which is necessary to ensure the safety of heavy oil gathering pipelines.
