Authors: Mishra Piyush Kumar , Mathur Keshav , Tripathi Vijay Shanker
Published: April 2024

This paper proposes a slotted patch antenna with wide bandwidth covering ISM frequency band (2.40-2.48 GHz) for implantable biotelemetry applications. A homogeneous skin phantom (HSP) model proves the usability of the proposed antenna in in-body environments. At a resonance frequency of 2.42 GHz, the design shows an S11 parameter of -35.56 dB, a percentage impedance bandwidth of 66.6% (2-4 GHz), and the maximum peak gain of -24.80 dBi. To validate the simulated results, the designed antenna was fabricated and measured, showing good compliance with the expected results. To ensure tissue safety, a specific absorption rate (SAR) is simulated for the proposed antenna which satisfies the requirements of IEEE standards, with a value of 87.75 W/kg for 10 g of tissue. The proposed antenna shows a telemetry range of 11 and 6.3 m at 7 kbps and 100 kbps data rates, respectively. The key features of the proposed antenna include the following: miniaturization, good S parameters, wide bandwidth, low SAR, good telemetry range, and high gain.

Authors: Ki Dong-Han , Jin Yu-Rin , Kim Sung-Mi , Cho Seong-Ik
Published: April 2024

In this paper, since the Avalanche Photo Diode (APD) for Light-to-Voltage LTV conversion uses a high voltagein the operating range unlike other Photo Diodes (PD), the quenching resistor must be connected in series to prevent overcurrent when using the Transimpedance Amplifier (TIA). In such a case, quenching resistance may affect the transfer function of the TIA circuit, resulting in serious stability. Therefore, in this paper, by analyzing the effect of APD quenching resistance on the voltage and current loop transfer function of TIA, we proposed a loop analysis and a method for determining the quenching resistance value to improve stability. A TIA circuit with quenching resistance was designed by the proposed method and its operational stability was verified through simulation and chip fabrication.
Sarcopenia prevalence between obese and morbid obese patients in an obesity center
Authors: Tuna Mujgan , Işık Arzu Cennet , Hürmeydan Ozlem
Published: April 2024

Background/Aim: Sarcopenia and obesity are independent diseases that result in decreased muscle strength and function. Few studies have been conducted on the association of sarcopenia and obesity, especially in women. This study aims to measure the possibility of sarcopenic obesity in women with obesity.
Methods: Our study was organized using a prospective cross-sectional study in Turkey. A total of 135 volunteer were included in the study. Inclusion criteria required the patients to have a BMI >35 kg/m2 or BMI >40 kg/m2 and no current comorbid disease. The exclusion criteria included: age (<18 and >70 years were excluded), history of muscle disease, malignancy, psychiatric disorders such as bipolar disease and psychosis, malnutrition, and recent corticosteroid (CS) use (within the last three months). Probable sarcopenia is determined by low skeletal muscle strength, and confirmed sarcopenia is defined if there is both low skeletal muscle mass and low skeletal muscle quality. Muscle strength was measured with isometric dynamometry using the handgrip method. A six-minute walk test (6MWT), in which we measured walking speed, was performed to determine the physical performance of the patients. We adjusted appendicular skeletal muscle (ASM) using height squared (ASM/height2) bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to measure the muscle mass.
Results: Patients’ mean age was 43 (11.4) (20-69) years. Of the total participants, 64.6% were in the age range of 40-59; 19.2% of patients were defined as possible sarcopenia; and 2.2% had confirmed sarcopenia. A total of 78.5% of patients did not meet any of the sarcopenia criteria. We determined that there was no difference in anthropometric measurements between sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic patients (P>0.05), except for waist and hip circumferences. However, we did observe a noteworthy distinction in waist and hip circumference measurements between the two groups, with sarcopenic patients exhibiting larger circumferences (P=0.05 and P=0.032, respectively). Our study revealed a significant disparity in the results of the six-minute walk test and handgrip strength values between sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic patients (P<0.001). Specifically, non-sarcopenic patients demonstrated higher values in both tests..
Conclusion: Obesity and sarcopenic obesity will continue to be a public health problem in the future among middle-aged women. It should be considered that the prevalence of decreased muscle strength was high in our study group, and physical performance decreased due to muscle strength. We concluded that as success in the six-minute walk test and handgrip values increased, the diagnosis of sarcopenia decreased, and each increase in platelet count increased the risk of sarcopenia in obese female patients.

CORRENTE FINALÍSTICA DO ESTADO: PODER DE POLÍCIA
Authors:   , Brasil Taís Rodrigues de Andrade
Published: April 2024

A palavra estado deriva do latim status, que significa estado, posição e ordem. Em seu sentido ontológico, Estado significa um organismo próprio dotado de funções próprias, ou seja, o modo de ser da sociedade politicamente organizada, uma das formas de manifestação do poder. Entre as várias correntes doutrinárias sobre as finalidades do Estado, nota-se com alento a corrente contratualista, o Estado teve sua origem a partir de um pacto social firmado entre os indivíduos. Para eles, os fins estatais devem ficar adstritos à mera aplicação do direito. Os defensores dos fins relativos do Estado sustentam a posição de que este deve ater-se a conservar o patrimônio público, ordenar a vida em sociedade e incentivar a economia, a cultura e o ensino. Sua preocupação deve residir nas suas relações com o indivíduo e na solidariedade dos mais fortes para com os mais fracos.

Anualmente, nascem 15 milhões de RNPT no mundo, uma incidência aproximada de um a cada dez nascimentos. O Brasil registrou entre os anos 2011 e 2019 aproximadamente 3 milhões de nascimentos prematuros, onde o Nordeste concentra 28% desses nascimentos, sendo uma das regiões do país que apresenta maior número de partos prematuros, assumindo a 2ª colocação. Quanto mais precoce for o nascimento de um RN, maiores serão suas vulnerabilidades, tanto fisiológicas e metabólicas, quanto psicológicas. Essas ocorrências preocupam seu crescimento,
desenvolvimento e suas necessidades após a alta hospitalar. A terceira etapa do MC tem seu processo de início com a alta hospitalar. Durante esta etapa o RN e sua família irão receber de forma compartilhada os cuidados da equipe do hospital e da unidade básica de saúde.

Unveiling the Veil: Intangible Cultural Heritage and the Filipino College Students
Authors: Pastera Robert  John
Published: April 2024

This study examined the current knowledge of Filipino college students on the Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) of the Philippines. The study included 75 college students during the academic year 2022-2023. Through a qualitative approach, the students submitted written essays anchored to the research questions. Thematic analysis was employed to analyze the qualitative data, adhering to the stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The analysis resulted in the surfacing of various themes which are the result of this study: (1) Exposure to art forms, (2) association with indigenous people, (3) essence of values and practices, (4) misunderstandings about ICH, and (5) safeguarding of ICH. Students who came from the provinces experienced ICH through their festivities and local cultures, which are annual celebrations of various communities. There were also students who observed their locality’s people, handicrafts, and even familial behaviors. The presence of various art forms, performances, and experiences with indigenous peoples, and local traditions, regardless of whether it is within their families or communities, and their own knowledge of recent social issues unveiled the opportunities for the students to be exposed to the concept of Intangible Cultural Heritage and safeguard it. The author proposed a recommendation to further study and formulate a probable teaching and learning approach for college students to be more exposed to the Intangible Cultural Heritage of the Philippines.

Fast dissolving tablets have emerged as a popular dosage form, particularly beneficial for pediatric and geriatric patients facing challenges such as dysphagia or hand tremors. These tablets dissolve quickly in saliva without needing water, enhancing compliance and effectiveness of therapy. They offer advantages like easy portability, accurate dosing, and improved bioavailability. Various technologies, including spray drying and melt granulation, have been developed for their manufacturing. This review provides comprehensive information on fast dissolving tablets, covering their definition, advantages, limitations, challenges, and available formulations. The design of an oral drug delivery system prioritizes convenience in administration and improved patient compliance, making it the preferred route of drug delivery despite certain drawbacks. Over the last decade, there has been a growing demand for Fast Disintegrating Tablets (FDTS), turning this field into a rapidly expanding area within the pharmaceutical industry. The formulation’s popularity and effectiveness have led to the development of various FDT technologies. These technologies aim to achieve rapid tablet disintegration and mouth dissolution within five seconds, eliminating the need for chewing or water intake. This characteristic is particularly advantageous for populations such as pediatrics, geriatrics, and patients facing difficulties in swallowing conventional tablets and capsules. The formulation of an easily administrable dosage form, considering challenges like swallowing difficulties and low patient compliance, has driven the creation of orally disintegrating tablets. Traditional preparation methods include spray drying, freeze drying, direct compression, molding, and sublimation. In addition, new technologies have been devised to enhance the production of orodispersible tablets.

This case report illustrates the uncommon occurrence of an overlap syndrome involving systemic sclerosis (SSc), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and Sjögren's syndrome in a 16-year-old female patient. Despite their distinct pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical manifestations, these connective tissue diseases converged in this patient, presenting a diagnostic challenge. The clinical presentation included features such as Raynaud's phenomenon, mouth and digit ulcers, alopecia, photosensitivity, and positive autoantibodies. Diagnostic workup revealed positive findings on antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) panel, confirming the presence of autoantibodies associated with all three conditions. The patient was managed with a combination of symptomatic treatment, hydroxychloroquine, and prednisolone. This case underscores the complexity of overlapping autoimmune diseases and emphasizes the importance of a thorough clinical evaluation, appropriate diagnostic testing, and timely initiation of management to optimize patient outcomes.

Published: April 2024

This study investigates the ionospheric response to a period of heightened solar flare activity from August 5th to August 7th, 2023, by analysing ground-based observations of various ionospheric parameters. The data includes detailed information on solar flare events, including their class, start time, maximum time, and end time, along with solar activity indicators such as sunspot numbers, solar radio flux, and solar zenith angles. On August 5th, multiple C-class, M-class, and an X1.63 flare were recorded, with the X-class flare being the most intense event. Ionospheric measurements revealed enhancements in electron temperatures, reaching a peak of 2104K at 6 UT, coinciding with the onset of an M1.6 flare. Additionally, a pronounced increase in total electron content (TEC) was observed, peaking at 34 TEC units at 6 UT, suggesting increased ionization due to the flare's influence. On August 6th, an M5.51 flare was the most significant event. Notably, the peak electron temperature of 2097K and the TEC maximum of 35.9 units were recorded at 6 UT, several hours before the flare's maximum phase, indicating potential preconditioning effects from the flare's preparatory stages. August 7th witnessed an X1.51 flare, along with multiple M-class flares. The peak electron temperature of 2088K and the TEC maximum of 35.3 units were observed at 7 UT, again preceding the X1.51 flare's peak, suggesting the influence of precursor effects. Throughout the observation period, the data exhibited typical diurnal patterns in ion temperatures and TEC, consistent with regular ionospheric behavior driven by solar radiation intensity variations. The study's findings provide evidence of the ionosphere's responsive nature to intense solar flare activity, with significant enhancements in electron temperatures and TEC observed during flare events. Notably, the effects were evident not only during the peak flare phases but also several hours prior, potentially due to the arrival of energetic particles or precursor electromagnetic radiation, indicating the influence of preconditioning processes. Furthermore, the data suggests that solar flares can impact the ionosphere's chemistry and dynamics, as inferred from changes in the "Ion Percentage" parameter, representing relative ionospheric compositions. Continuous monitoring and analysis of such events across different geophysical conditions are crucial for advancing the understanding of solar-terrestrial interactions and their impacts on space-based technologies, contributing to the development of improved space weather prediction and mitigation strategies.

Authors: Mathew Masinde Egessa  , Hamisi Ali Mwadzogo
Published: April 2024

Despite the benefits of having an innovation hub in a university and the calls by the stakeholders in the Technical University of Mombasa (TUM) Strategic Plan 2018-2022, there is no conducive physical space within the university that supports multidisciplinary TUM researchers to converge among themselves or with external stakeholders, to continuously brainstorm and co-create innovative solutions. As a response to these calls, this study explores innovation hubs and centres in top universities, with the aim to draw lessons and inspiration of setting up one at TUM. This study adopts exploratory research design. By being part of a broader research study, empirical data will not be collected and analysed at this stage. With the insights from the review, the study proposes the repurposing of an existing building space within TUM into a physical innovation hub. We envision that the innovation hub will contribute to the following lasting benefits for TUM: enhance TUM’s contribution to a better society; increase TUM’s reputation; enhance the quality of TUM’s research; as well as generate income for TUM.
Impact of alternative development on reducing the security threat posed by cannabis cultivation: A case of Tain District, Ghana
Authors: Kofi Boateng  , Manpaya M  , Owusu-Manu D
Published: April 2024

Purpose: Cannabis cultivation has supported the local economy and culture of Nsawkaw, Badu, and other communities in the Tain District of the Bono Region for many years. The cultivation's security threat was also important, according to this study's respondents. However, any Alternative Development (AD) program to replace this old enterprise must entail community engagement, youth participation, entrepreneurial development, and finances to preserve the culture and tradition of the people. Methodology: Qualitative and quantitative research methods were used to analyze data and use the inductive research approach. Cannabis cultivation farmers in Badu and Nsawkaw in Tain District, Opinion Leaders, Narcotics Control Commission employees, and Bono Region NGOs were the study's target demographic. Findings: It was also found that most AD regulations to prevent cannabis cultivation were heavily affected by party politics, leading many people to forsake them. AD must examine how Ghana might allow cannabis cultivation under stringent laws for its many benefits, including medicinal use and quick money. Value: AD should consider marketing, conserving, transporting, and pricing licit crops. The Tree Crops Authority (MOFA) should be proactive in its mandate. Their proactiveness can pique cannabis farmers' interest in tree crops, particularly cashews.
