Authors: Junaid Muhammad , Alam Mansoor , Sahibzada Fawad , Ali Sajid , Saeed Khalid , Mukhtar Hamid
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND: Foreign body inhalation is an emergency situation, affecting children mostly in first decade of life. An aspirated solid or semisolid object may lodge in the larynx or trachea may cause complete obstruction. Lesser degrees of obstruction or passage of the obstructive object beyond the carina can result in less severe signs and symptoms. Chronic debilitating symptoms with recurrent infections might occur with delayed extraction, or the patient may remain asymptomatic. Many aspirated foreign bodies are unexpectedly discovered, go undetected, or are misdiagnosed. In many cases with suspected foreign body radiological findings may reveal other findings e.g. emphysema, atelectasis, air trapping.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of common radiological findings among children with suspected foreign body inhalation.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at Department of ENT, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, from April 2017 to October 2017. In this study a total of 141 patients were observed. All patients were subjected to detailed history and clinical examination. X ray chest (AP and lateral views) of all the patients was performed to detect common radiological findings (Radio-opaque Foreign Body (FB), Pneumonia, Emphysema, atelectasis and Air Trapping). The demographic details like name, age, gender, address and contacts were recorded on a pre-designed proforma.

RESULTS: In this study mean age was 8 years with SD ± 3.563.  Sixty percent children were male while 40% children were female. Sixteen percent children had Radio opaque FB, 13% children had pneumonia, 28% had emphysema, 18% children had atelectasis while 25% had Air trapping.

CONCLUSION: Our study concludes that the frequency of Radio opaque was 16%, pneumonia 13%, emphysema 28%, atelectasis 18%, Air trapping 25% among children with suspected foreign body inhalation.

KEY WORDS: radiological findings, suspected foreign body inhalation, Pneumonia, Emphysema, atelectasis and Air Trapping

Published: January 2021

The article analyzes the material of recent publications on the state of development of the Far North of the Russian Federation in the complex of General problems of development of mining, water and land transport, the presence and expansion of which determines the formation of the socio-economic framework of the region, as well as overcoming the demographic vacuum of this territory of Siberia, especially its Eastern part. The author's positions are presented both in assessing the current situation and the future resuscitation of this periphery of Russia. The purpose of the work is to assess the prospects for lithospheric transformations in the Far North and to concentrate information on the negative phenomena that have developed as a result of unbalancing economic and socio-cultural policies in relation to the region, which has gradually become a raw material appendage of the country's economy, which has no place in the system of economic programs. The far North turned out to be a preserved zone for a long time, but today, due to the aggravation of the international situation in the sphere of energy resources distribution, it becomes an object of economic interest of neighboring and remote countries. It is time to develop a strategy for integrating the diversified economy of the Siberian territories into the overall economic structure of the country. Due to the beginning of climate warming, which causes the degradation of eocryological homeostasis and the onset of the ocean, including on the territory of the Ob water area, the authors expressed concern about the negative dynamics of the collision of the Ob waters with the ocean tide and possible changes in the hydrogeological configuration of the continent, which will radically affect the forms of development and redistribution of territory, as well as the tracing of transport latitudinal communications connecting the European and Asian parts of Russia. Attention is also drawn to the need to solve the urgent problems of urbanization and architecture of the region at a civilized level.

Authors:   University of Nottingham, Núñez Díaz Catalina
Published: January 2021

The adverse outcomes of society's mental health require questioning and rethinking the school's traditional role, especially the teachers' role facing this crucial dimension of the students' development. These professionals collaborate every day on the students' progress through the teachers' practices in the classroom, and the relations established every day in the educational context. Therefore, this collaboration must go beyond the contents and skills related to traditional disciplines included in the schools' curricula. This article's objective is to propose action lines, addressing the practices and possibilities that teachers' training could offer addressing the support of the students in the mental health dimension, divided into three axes through a literature review. These establish the teacher-student relationship, including strategies that foster a positive school climate and detect possible communication issues in students with the corresponding network. For this, it is required an approach of the school as a community that supports the students' mental health's enhancing processes, but mostly the inclusion of pre and in-service teachers' training processes. The primary purpose is to offer more tools that allow the development and early intervention facing possible issues linked to this dimension.

The word seizure is derived from Latin word “Sacire” meaning ‘to take possession of’. Seizure disorders are found Epilepsy can be broadly divided into idiopathic and symptomatic disorders. Idiopathic epilepsies are not associated with brain lesions or neurological abnormalities. They tend to be self limited and often respond well to antiepileptic therapy.An acute symptomatic seizure was defined in a recent recommendation from the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE ) as a clinical seizure occurring in close temporal relationship with an acute central nervous system insult which may be metabolic, toxic, infectious or inflammatory. Seizures are common disorders found all over the that may require urgent attention and treatment to reverse world and are encountered frequently during medical potentially damaging causes. Such seizures are practice in variety of settings.

A Sensitivity-Based Three-Phase Weather-Dependent Power Flow Algorithm for Networks with Local Controllers—Part I: Algorithm Development
Authors: Pompodakis Evangelos , Ahmed Arif , Alexiadis Minas
Published: January 2021

Local voltage controllers (LVCs) are important
components of a modern distribution system for regulating the voltage within
permissible limits. This manuscript presents a sensitivity-based three-phase weather-dependent
power flow algorithm for distribution networks with LVCs. This Part I presents
the theoretical development
of the proposed algorithm, which has four distinct characteristics: a) it
considers the three-phase unbalanced nature of distribution systems, b) the
operating state of LVCs is calculated using sensitivity parameters, which accelerates the
convergence speed of the algorithm, c) it considers the precise switching sequence of LVCs based on
their reaction time delays, and d) the nonlinear influence of weather
variations in the power flow is also taken into consideration. Simulations and
validation results presented in Part II indicate that the proposed approach
outperforms other existing algorithms with respect to the accuracy and speed of
convergence, thus making it a promising power flow tool for accurate distribution
system analysis.

DETERMINATION OF TRANSAMINASES AND CREATINE KINASE LEVELS IN PATIENTS WITH MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY AND MUSCULOSKELETAL DISEASES
Authors: Mahmood Alam Junaid , Imran Farooqui Sumaira , Hussain Fatima , Mahmood Syed Riaz
Published: January 2021

BACKGROUND
The transaminases, ALT and AST (alanine and aspartate transaminases, respectively), that are generally considered to be the hepatic enzymes, also found in skeletal muscles. Continual elevated levels of both enzymes in patients with several forms of muscular dystrophy and musculoskeletal diseases have been documented in several studies.
AIM AND OBJECTIVES
The present study is undertaken to examine the possibility of highlighting transaminases elevation in muscular dystrophy as an indicator of concomitant muscular damage, rather than hepatic injury due to medications, and relate its significance with underlying myofibrillar damages.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Data of a total of 52 patients (males = 38, females = 14) were obtained during December 2006 to December 2011 and complied as per criteria. Plasma CK enzyme and transaminases (AST and ALT) levels were performed by enzymatic methods on Hitachi 912. A specific hepatic marker gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) was also measured to assess the extent or presence of hepatic damages. All enzymatic data were analyzed using regression correlation analyses with significance level of P < 0.05.
RESULTS
Cumulative as well as individual data analysis showed significant correlation of transaminases with CK, which is the distinct indicator of muscle damage. ALT R2 correlation with CK showed linear regression correlation of R2 = 0.796 and for AST R2 = 0.814. Cumulative mean of CK was 406.83 ± 20.15 IU/L; ALT = 70.86 ± 10.21 IU/L, AST = 68.78 ± 8.30 IU/L and GT = 20.13 ± 4.30 IU/L.
CONCLUSION
The present study describes the elevated level of transaminase, ALT and AST in patients of muscular dystrophy and myopathies. It was also exhibited that both transaminases concentration linearly correlated with muscle marker CK. No hepatic damage was noted in all patients as manifested by normal levels of GGT, a distinct marker of hepatic origin.

Published: January 2021

Inclusive Education (IE) of children with atypical development is a great challenge, as schools here, predominantly do not grant them admission, on grounds of having negligible infrastructure to cater to their needs. This is usually based upon inaccurate presumptions about the children’s (impoverished) physical, social, communicative, intellectual and literacy skills, and creates more obstacles towards achieving IE. The UN establishes education as every child’s right and proposes that, all children regardless of their abilities must go to the same school, making it incumbent on the school system to fulfill the requirements of every child. Today, the developed countries have a well established IE system, and have nearly shelved the ‘special school’ methodology.
To ascertain, this realm in Karachi the speech language therapists and
students of College of Speech Language & Hearing Sciences(CSLHS),
Ziauddin University, indulged with five parents, whose children, despite having speech-language impediments, found a way into mainstream schools, in here. The aim was to gain an insight towards achieving IE for all children deserving to be integrated into mainstream schools in Pakistan.

The results of this study although not very encouraging, pointed towards establishing early intervention, and training school personnel in identifying and working with differently-abled children in their classroom.

Authors: Khan M. Usman
Published: January 2021

BACKGROUND
Fibromyalgia (FM) frequently termed as fibrositis is a discomforting rheumatic
syndrome which is associated with spasm, localize and palpable tenderness,
chronic fatigue, headache, depression and bowel symptoms. The use of
electro physical agents in order to treat FM is still a growing concern. A
systematic review was executed to appraise the use of different electro
physical agents in FM.
METHODS
Seventy three articles were reviewed including RCTS, Clinical trials and Experimental
studies, highlighting the use of electro physical agents and comparing
them with each other.
CONCLUSION
Fibromyalgia is a syndrome is challenging to comprehend and treat effectively.
Patients are looking for substitution therapies due to ineffectiveness
and dissatisfaction to the conventional and therapies in trend. Although
many results have been found in favor of using different modalities related to
physical therapy treatment for FM still specific use of modalities like TENS,
biofeedback, magneto and electromagnetic therapies is still a question.
Treatment should be given according to the need of patient, targeted symptoms
and functional impairments.

Penyakit infeksi merupakan salah satu penyakit yang penting di Indonesia. Penyakit infeksi dapat disebabkan dari mikroorganisme patogen seperti, bakteri Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. Penyakit infeksi dapat diobati dengan pemberian antibiotik, akan tetapi antibiotik sekarang mengalami resistensi. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan alternatif lain seperti batang papaya yang dapat di manfaatkan sebagai antibakteri terhadap S.aureus ATCC 25923. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui aktivitas antibakteri terhadap S.aureus ATCC 25923 dan mengetahui nilai KHM dalam fraksi teraktif fraksi batang papaya. Sampel batang papaya diekstraksi menggunakan metode soxhletasi dengan etanol 96% dilanjutkan fraksinasi menggunakan tiga pelarut yaitu aquadestilata, diklorometana dan n-heksan. Kontrol positif yang digunakan adalah klindamisin dan kontrol negatif adalah pelarut yang sesuai. Fraksi teraktif dilakukan pengujian untuk mengetahui Konsentrasi Hambat Minimum (KHM) menggunakan pengamatan secara visual dan spektrofotometer Uv-Vis. Analisa statistik dilakukan dengan Kruskal Wallis dan Mann Whitney. Hasil pengujian aktivitas antibakteri fraksi batang papaya menunjukkan adanya aktivitas antibakteri terhadap S.aureus ATCC 25923. Hasil zona hambat pada fraksi aquadestilata, diklorometana dan n-heksan berturut-turut adalah 20,63±0,28 mm, 17,86±0,18 mm dan 15,33±0,47 mm. Fraksi batang papaya yang memiliki zona hambat paling aktif adalah pada fraksi aquadestilata. Nilai Konsentasi Hambat Minimum fraksi aquadestilata adalah 0,312%.
