Authors: Prasad Rao B.V. Siva Vara , K B Santhosh , S M Anil Sankol
Published: February 2025

Background: Acute exacerbation of asthma is one of the most common illnesses presenting to Emergency Department. Glucocorticoids are good anti-inflammatory agents, effective at treating asthma and decreasing inflammation of the airways. Although systemic use of steroids is commonly being used,
inhaled steroids could be also beneficial in acute asthma. AIM: To compare the efficacy of inhaled corticosteroid over systemic steroid in acute asthma. Materials & Methods: This was randomized, prospective, comparative study done on a total of 48patients in Emergency Department and ICU. All
patients were assigned in random consecutive case fashion to one of the three groups such as Group I(inhaled steroid), Group II(intravenous steroid) and Group III(inhaled beta-2 agonist). The changes in respiratory rate, heart rate, oxygen saturation, peak expiratory flow and pulmonary score were recorded at 30minutes, 60minutes and 120minutes after treatment and were analysed. Results: Out of 48patients, highest number (n=13)(26.5%) of patients were of aged 30-39years and lowest being(n=2)(4.1%) aged 10-19years. There was female preponderance (n=21)(56.3%). Breathlessness grades were Grades 0 and 1(0%), Grade 2(n=13)(27.1%), Grade 3(n=26)(54.2%) and Grade 4(n=9)(18.7 %). Wheeze was present in 46(95.8%) patients. Accessory muscles of respiration were used in 34(70.8%) patients. There was no statistical difference (p>0.05) in decrease in respiratory rate, decrease in heart rate, increase in oxygen saturation, increase in peak flow and decrease in pulmonary score among all 3groups. Conclusion: The use of inhaled steroids is an effective treatment approach with faster clinical improvement compared to intravenous steroids in managing acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma in emergency room.

Helt ärligt, vad gör man med fria initiala annex?
Authors: Strandberg Viktoria
Published: February 2025

A Swedish main clause can be preceded by hanging topics: phrases in the left periphery without a resumptive in the following clause. This construction is labelled free-standing initial annexation (FIA) by the Swedish Academy grammar. However, FIA has received only limited attention in previous research – both in traditional grammar and in interactional linguistics. Furthermore, there seems to be little agreement on what FIA actually is. In this article I suggest a broad definition of FIA, based on formal as well as functional criteria. The functional variation of FIA is then investigated in a spoken language corpus, consisting of ten Swedish podcasts. From an interactional analysis, I distinguish eight different functions: navigate the conversation, announce the up-coming action, emphasize truthfulness, address a recipient, justify the next turn, set the stage, announce a topic for conversation, and mark a quote. From a turn-topological point of view, some FIAs are used as “contextualizers” for the main speech act of the turn. These FIA may overlap with other speech at turn transition relevant places, without the speaker repairing them. However, the topic announcing and stage-setting FIAs seem to not only contextualize the speech act but contribute to it, since the speakers tend to repeat these FIA if they overlap.

Authors:   Higher Institute of Science and Technology Soug Aljuma-Tripoli -Libya, Abu Sen Waleed Salem
Published: February 2025

Needs analysis is the initial step before designing an ESP course program.
This study used a quantitative approach to gather data from 40 Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) higher diploma students in Libya. The data was collected using a descriptive questionnaire that asked about the students' current and target needs, commonly referred to as necessities, wants, and lacks. The findings showed that most students thought English was crucial for their future careers as safety officers and that they had high expectations for using English for communication in both oral and written text in the target situations for their future careers as safety officers.
The findings indicated the students ' lack was concerning particular macro-skills, namely speaking , writing and listening which needed improvement, while very few students indicated their lack of improvement in their micro-skills. The findings also indicated the degree of difficulty for students to perform certain activities that needed improvement. The findings also demonstrated the students' need to improve their language skills at both the macro and micro levels for their future career and workplaces. The findings also displayed the students' needs towards the importance of some topics to be included in their SOH English course program.
The findings also revealed that almost all students wanted more contemporary learning approaches and teaching materials that include the use of IT technology& simulation labs in their OSH course. Hopefully, the results of the study will be essential for the managers of OSH industry, OSH English instructors and material developers in order to improve the quality of the ESP courses to concentrate more on the needs of the learners who intend to become safety officers.

Literary Representation of “Life Force Theory” in George Bernard Shaw’s Play “Man and Superman”
Authors: Ullah Farman , Mumtaz Ali Awais , Ullah Farman
Published: February 2025

This paper explores George Bernard Shaw's use of the “life force theory" in his seminal play Man and Superman. As a vital philosophical concept, life force is based on the belief in creative evolution. This doctrine becomes a drive to continuously perfect itself by creating better forms. The characters and themes of the novel are looked at in relation to one theory of how this occurs, in particular, the embodiment of the unconscious life force, Ann, and her relentless pursuit of Tanner, corresponding to the embodiment of the conscious life force. The analysis sets Man and Superman within the intellectual streams of its time while concurrently exploring Shaw's embrace of Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, and Lamarck's ideas. This study combines qualitative methods to spotlight the play's philosophical, comedic, and dramatic levels and advance the idea that Shaw utilizes the exchange of conscious and unconscious forces to espouse an evolutionary progression and social change.

Authors: Ullah Khan Zabih , Bin Khalid Haris
Published: February 2025

This study examines how workplace telepressure affects work-family conflict (WFC) employees in the employees in the nursing field of the health sector in Islamabad, with psychological detachment acting as a mediator. Data were collected through a survey of 315 employees in Islamabad and analyzed using AMOS and SPSS software. The results reveal a significant positive correlation between workplace telepressure and work-family conflict (b = 0.10, p < 0.01), indicating that employees experiencing high levels of telepressure struggle to disconnect from work, leading to conflict between work and family responsibilities. Psychological detachment negatively mediated this relationship (b = -0.06, p < 0.01), suggesting that the inability to detach from work mentally exacerbates the work-family conflict. The findings contribute to the literature by validating the Work-Family Spillover Theory and highlighting the role of psychological detachment in mitigating the negative impact of telepressure. These results have practical implications for organizational policies aimed at reducing work-family conflict by fostering better recovery and detachment from work.

Blood donation is an important process that involves taking some blood from a donor to donate and store it in a blood bank. This blood can then be used for transfusions for those in need, such as in cases of accidents, major surgery, or certain illnesses. In Indonesia, blood donation is very important, especially because of the high maternal mortality rate due to bleeding during childbirth. The need for blood continues to increase as the number of accidents and illnesses requiring blood transfusions increases. Although blood donation has great benefits for the recipient, many people do not realize that donating blood regularly also brings various health benefits to the donor. This study aims to increase public understanding about the importance of blood donation through interviews and research at Sunan Giri University, Surabaya. Interview results show that blood donation not only saves lives, but also helps maintain the health of donors and encourages a spirit of mutual cooperation in society. Through education and increasing awareness, more people are expected to be involved in sustainable blood donation activities.

ciudad de Granada de la Provincia de Nicaragua en el siglo XVIII, según la visita apostólica de Morel de Santa Cruz
Authors: Estrada Castillo Alicia Auxiliadora
Published: February 2025

Desde su fundación en 1524, Granada ha sido considerada una de las ciudades más importantes de la entonces Provincia de Nicaragua. Su emplazamiento, abundantes recursos culturales-naturales; y una multiplicidad de acontecimientos, han determinado su huella en la historia nacional. El documento histórico de la visita apostólica del obispo Pedro Agustín Morel de Santa Cruz efectuada entre 1751 y 1752, es una fuente valiosa, única en su tipo, por el amplio abordaje de datos estadísticos, geográficos, ambientales, tipológicos-constructivos, entre otros. El análisis del informe del prelado junto a otras fuentes de información, permitieron interpretar el panorama social, político y económico de esta ciudad hegemónica, la cual conmemora sus quinientos años de fundación, al igual que su homóloga León de Imabite (León Viejo). Urbanísticamente, Granada persigue la traza de damero adaptada a las particularidades de su medio natural. Un eje vial en sentido este-oeste, denominado Calle Jalteva, orientaba su desarrollo urbano y comunicaba el núcleo peninsular con el barrio de Jalteva. Contaba con siete templos, conjuntos conventuales y setecientas familiasdistribuidas en más de seiscientas viviendas del sistema constructivo adobe y armadura de madera con cubrición de teja de barro cocida o paja.  Su economía se sustentaba en parte gracias a la agricultura y la ganadería, con relaciones con ciudades, villas y pueblos aledaños de la provincia, así como Guatemala. Finalmente, se espera que este trabajo constituya una referencia para el desarrollo de futuras investigaciones sistemáticas de nuestras ciudades, e incluso, de nuestros pueblos desaparecidos, como un medio para la salvaguarda de nuestra identidad.
Influencia de un suelo rocoso en el nivel de desempeño sísmico de una estructura de acero considerando el Reglamento Nacional de Construcción y la Norma Sismorresistente para la ciudad de Managua
Authors: Pérez Saúl , Sequeira Abigahil
Published: February 2025

El propósito de este estudio es determinar el nivel de desempeño sísmico de un marco de acero de dos niveles tomando en cuenta la definición de suelo rocoso que sugieren el Reglamento Nacional de Construcción y la Norma Sismorresistente para la ciudad de Managua. Es utilizado el Método del Espectro de Capacidad con el fin de determinar el desempeño sísmico. Este método, el cual se basa en parámetros espectrales como desplazamiento y aceleración, superpone la curva de capacidad de la estructura y la demanda sísmica. La construcción de la curva de capacidad se hace a partir de las propiedades mecánicas de los materiales utilizados y de las secciones transversales de los elementos de la estructura. Por otro lado, la construcción de la demanda sísmica se realiza a partir del Reglamento Nacional de Construcción (RNC-07) y la Norma Sismorresistencia para la ciudad de Managua (NSCM) tomando en cuenta datos como la aceleración del terreno y el tipo de suelo. La influencia de este último es el objetivo de este estudio ya que la NSCM propone factores de ajuste espectral en función del tipo de suelo, es decir que la amplitud de la región que corresponde a aceleraciones espectrales constantes disminuye a medida que aumenta la rigidez del suelo. Este ajuste no existía en el RNC-07 y la amplitud de dicha región se mantenía constante entre 0.1 s y 0.6 s. Finalmente, se determina el nivel de desempeño sísmico considerando los límites establecidos en el Vision 2000 A Framework for Performance Based Structural Engineering (SEAOC, 1995).

A través de sus etapas, la analítica proporciona un enfoque integral para optimizar la cadena de suministro: con la analítica descriptiva, las empresas pueden descubrir qué ocurre en la cadena de suministro, obteniendo visualizaciones adecuadas para una toma de decisiones sustentada en datos; la analítica diagnóstica indaga en el porqué de lo ocurrido, identificando la causa raíz de los problemas para dar paso a oportunidades de mejora; la analítica predictiva es fundamental para sustentar el futuro de la cadena de suministro mediante la determinación del “qué va a ocurrir”; y la analítica prescriptiva brinda soluciones óptimas a incorporar en la cadena para maximizar el superávit de la misma y favorecer su ajuste estratégico. Este ensayo aborda el valor que brinda la analítica y la big data a las cadenas de suministro, explorando la perspectiva de la analítica desde el modelo SCOR (Referencia de Operaciones de la Cadena de Suministro), la calidad y visualización de los datos, y su aplicación exitosa para la hiperpersonalización de la experiencia del cliente y la transformación sostenible de las cadenas de suministro. Los casos de Amazon, Coda Coffee y Bext360 se toman como referencia en el uso adecuado de la analítica respaldada por tecnología, como la visión de máquina, sensores, inteligencia artificial y blockchain. De tal manera, la analítica se presenta como un recurso imprescindible en un entorno empresarial complejo al traducir datos en decisiones informadas, revolucionar prácticas tradicionales y forjar un futuro sostenible.

A research facility has been developed for verifying a method for implementing a closed-loop control system along an intermediate coordinate for an electromechanical system with distributed parameters in the mechanical part using an observing device. The scheme of the experimental stand with a detailed description is given. The mechanical parameters of the experimental stand are given. As a system with distributed parameters, a spring with a low coefficient of elasticity was used in the stand, inside which a string is stretched to avoid the effect of sagging. A distinctive feature of a system with distributed parameters is the presence of forward and backward branches of a one-dimensional system with distributed elasticity. The small coefficient of elasticity of the spring provides resonance phenomena at low frequencies, which is observed in spatially extended systems with distributed parameters. A thyristor converter is used to control the rotational speed of the electric motor in the experimental stand. A photo of the converter with the control circuit is shown. The implementation of the sinusoidal control law is provided by a crank mechanism, its scheme is presented. An electrical circuit diagram for providing power to the experimental stand is presented. A photograph of the appearance of the electrical part of the stand is presented. The range and accuracy of a set of voltage and current measuring devices are indicated. To obtain information about the motor current, a software and hardware complex is used. The description of the software and hardware complex is presented. A control program has been developed for making measurements on four voltage channels. The procedure for determining the coefficient of proportionality between the voltage of the reference and the oscillation frequency of the system with distributed parameters for the experimental setup and its value are presented. The feedback signal is connected using a switch located on the experimental stand.

Music has long been considered an approach for improving physical performance and motivation in sports. This study looks into the impact of music on athletes’ performance in sports, employing biosensor monitoring to detect physiological and psychological changes. A total of 100 athletes were randomly assigned to two groups: Group A (n = 50) exercised with music, while Group B (n = 50) exercised without music. Participants participated in identical physical activities, such as endurance runs and strength exercises. Biosensors measured heart rate variability (HRV), oxygen saturation, muscle activity, and galvanic skin response (GSR). Participants also self-reported their motivation levels and perceived effort. The two groups’ performance measures were compared statistically using the independent t-test. Furthermore, within-group variations in recovery durations before and after exercise were assessed using paired t-tests. The association between motivation levels and performance results was evaluated using Pearson’s correlation. The impact of music on a number of physiological indicators was evaluated using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The findings showed that music (Group A) improved sports performance significantly by increasing endurance, lowering perceived exertion, and encouraging faster recovery. Biosensor data showed that the music condition resulted in higher HRV and less muscular tiredness, indicating enhanced physiological efficiency. Participants reported increased motivation and enjoyment when exercising to music. The findings suggest that incorporating personalized music playlists into training programs can improve athletic outcomes.

The Thematic Real Work Lecture Program (KKN-T) is a community service activity that must be carried out by students to provide direct experience in applying the knowledge gained on campus. This activity aims to bring students closer to village communities, as well as develop students' practical abilities and character. One of the main focuses of KKN-T is to improve village development through the application of information and communication technology (ICT), which is expected to support economic growth and efficiency of community administration services. Even though several villages have begun to adopt digital technology, data processing and community services are still mostly done manually, causing delays in decision making. Therefore, the application of technology such as Machine Learning can be a solution to speed up and increase the accuracy of data processing, especially in determining recipients of social assistance and other administrative services. This research identifies obstacles in implementing technology in villages and provides technology-based solutions to overcome these problems. Through KKN-T activities in Paya Tusam Village, students provided education on the use of Machine Learning to increase the efficiency of administrative data processing. It is hoped that the results of this service will facilitate decision making and introduce villages to more modern technology, so that villages can develop and improve the quality of life of their people.

AIM: The training of medical specialists is a decisive issue for the quality of medical practice. Autonomization in simple procedures and applying the peer education concept seem promising, particularly for general surgery. With this work, we wanted to assess whether there are differences between appendectomy operations performed by differently composed teams with the active involvement of resident doctors at a university centre.
METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the laparotomies and laparoscopic appendicectomies carried out at the Udine Surgery Clinic over a period of 10 years. The interventions were divided into groups according to the experience of the surgical team that performed them: G1 (consultant), G2 (senior resident + consultant), G3 (junior resident + consultant), and G4 (junior resident + senior resident).
RESULTS: 510 appendectomy procedures were considered for the present analysis. 214 (42.0%) were performed by G1, 139 (27.3%) by G2, 79 (15.5%) by G3 and 78 (15.3%) by G4 group. No difference between the groups was shown in terms of complications, reinterventions, readmissions, length of stay, and duration of surgery. A statistically significant difference was shown in the age of the observed population with respect to the degree of experience of the surgical teams: younger patients were mainly operated on by more experienced teams, and in particular, pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy was performed mainly by consultants.
CONCLUSIONS: Appendectomy surgery can be performed by teams with varying levels of experience and is an example of an activity that can be used in Peer Education. It allows for the empowerment of younger residents and the autonomization of older residents in maintaining a medically, ethically, and legally correct standard of safe clinical practice.
