The aim of this study was to establish the contribution of insulin resistance to the morning (a.m.) versus afternoon (p.m.) lower glucose tolerance of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Eleven subjects with T2D (mean [SD] diabetes duration 0.79 [0.23] years, BMI 28.3 [1.8] kg/m2, A1C 6.6% [0.26%] [48.9 (2.9) mmol/mol]), treatment lifestyle modification only) and 11 matched control subjects without diabetes were monitored between 5:00 and 8:00 a.m. and p.m. (in random order) on one occasion (study 1), and on a subsequent occasion, they underwent an isoglycemic clamp (a.m. and p.m., both between 5:00 and 8:00, insulin infusion rate 10 mU/m2/min) (study 2). In study 1, plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, and glucagon were higher and insulin clearance lower in subjects with T2D a.m. versus p.m. and versus control subjects (P < 0.05), whereas free fatty acid, glycerol, and β-hydroxybutyrate were lower a.m. versus p.m. However, in study 2 at identical hyperinsulinemia a.m. and p.m. (∼150 pmol/L), glucose Ra and glycerol Ra were both less suppressed a.m. versus p.m. (P < 0.05) in subjects with T2D. In contrast, in control subjects, glucose Ra was more suppressed a.m. versus p.m. Leucine turnover was no different a.m. versus p.m. In conclusion, in subjects with T2D, insulin sensitivity for glucose (liver) and lipid metabolism has diurnal cycles (nadir a.m.) opposite that of control subjects without diabetes already at an early stage, suggesting a marker of T2D.

Article Highlights

In people with type 2 diabetes (T2D), fasting hyperglycemia is greater in the morning (a.m.) versus the afternoon (p.m.), and insulin sensitivity for glucose and lipid metabolism is lower a.m. versus p.m. This pattern is the reverse of the physiological diurnal cycle of people without diabetes who are more insulin sensitive a.m. versus p.m. These new findings have been observed in the present study in people without obesity but with recent-onset T2D, with good glycemic control, and in the absence of confounding pharmacological treatment. It is likely that the findings represent a specific marker of T2D, possibly present even in prediabetes before biochemical and clinical manifestations.

Published: July 2023

Abstract—Aspen HYSYS was used to investigate several aspects of process design for benzene nitration. In this study, the frequency factor (ko) and the activation energy (Ea) for benzene nitration were given from the literature. Calculations of chemical and physical  properties were performed automatically on Hysys using the NRTL and UNIQUAC Thermodynamic models. Some aspects of process design were studied, namely: (1) the effect of temperature on the conversion of reactions, (2) the effect of the ratio of sulphuric acid to nitric acid on the synthesis of nitrobenzen in the reactor, and (3) the effect of reactor arrangements ( parallel and series) on reaction conversion. The results showed that the peak of conversion that could be achieved on a single reactor was 96.9% at a ratio of sulfuric acid: nitric acid = 3.5 and a temperature of 50ºC. However, based on this study, it is suggested that the most favorable conditions for nitation of benzene in an isothermal reactor are 50°C and a sulfuric acid:nitric acid ratio of about 2.5 to 3.
Abstrak—Aspen HYSYS digunakan untuk menginvestigasi beberapa aspek  perancangan proses pada nitrasi benzen. Energi aktivasi (Ea) dan faktor frekwensi (ko) untuk reaksi ini diperoleh dari literature. Perhitungan sifat-sifat fisis dan kimia dilakukan secara otomatis pada Hysys dengan menggunakan model Termodinamik NRTL dan UNIQUAC. Beberapa aspek perancangan proses dipelajari dengan simulasi, yaitu: pengaruh suhu pada konversi reaksi, pengaruh rasio asam sulfat terhadap asam nitrat pada sintesa nitrobenzen dalam CSTR (reaktor berpengaduk kontinyu), dan pengaruh susunan reaktor baik seri maupun parallel terhadap konversi reaksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konversi tertinggi yang dapat dicapai pada CSTR tunggal adalah 96,9 % pada rasio asam sulfat: asam nitrat = 3,5 dan suhu 50ºC. Namun demikian, berdasarkan penelitian ini, disarankan bahwa kondisi yang paling disukai untuk nitasi benzen dalam CSTR isotermal adalah 50ºC dan rasio asam sulfat:asam nitrat sekitar 2,5 sampai 3.

Published: July 2023

Wasiat merupakan salah satu instrumen perancangan harta pusaka yang menjadi pilihan orang Islam di Malaysia. Namun demikian, pelaksanaan wasiat selepas kematian pewasiat masih berdepan cabaran seperti pelaksanaan wasiat ini masih boleh dicabar, terhad kepada 1/3 bahagian kepada bukan waris, pergaduhan di antara waris, perlantikan penjaga tidak beramanah sehingga berlakunya pengabaian benefisiari. Justeru, kajian ini akan menganalisis aplikasi Wasiat Beramanah sebagai alternatif dalam perancangan harta pusaka yang lebih sistematik dan holistik. Kajian ini adalah berbentuk kualitatif dengan menggunakan kaedah penyelidikan kepustakaan dan temu bual bersama seorang pegawai di Amanah Raya Berhad (ARB). Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa aplikasi Wasiat Beramanah adalah lebih komprehensif daripada wasiat biasa, berupaya menunaikan hasrat pewasiat, dan menjaga kebajikan waris-waris selepas berlaku kematian pewasiat. Kajian ini mencadangkan aplikasi Wasiat Beramanah ini diperluaskan lagi kerana masih kurang diberi perhatian. Keywords: Wasiat Beramanah, Wasiat, Perancangan harta pusaka, Amanah (trust)

Authors: Akankwasa Edith , Kamya Willy , Sendijja Moses , Mudoola Janet , Lwenge Mathias , Onzima Robert Anguyo DDM , Kasozi Daniel , Byansi Peter , Katongole Simon Peter
Published: July 2023

Introduction: It is crucial to have satisfactory coverage of safe motherhood services in order to prevent birth defects and child disabilities. Mildmay Uganda Institute of Health Sciences (MIHS) implemented a safe motherhood project aimed at preventing birth defects and child disabilities. Methods: Three years after the project’s implementation, a rapid cross-sectional health facility survey was conducted in 4 districts of central Uganda to assess the coverage of key safe motherhood and early childhood services. The Lot Quality Assurance Sampling approach was used to assess coverage of 16 indicators in the areas of ANC, skilled birth attendance, early childhood care, postnatal care, and knowledge about child disability prevention. A Decision Rule was set at 80% upper threshold to classify the performance of health facilities at the district level. Results: The survey found that there was variation in performance across indicators and districts. All districts achieved the 80% coverage target in ANC first visit, mothers who received at least two doses of Fansidar for intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in pregnancy, and mothers with knowledge of the action to take in case they suspect childhood disability. Folic acid supplementation during pregnancy and screening for birth defects using the Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration (APGAR) score had overall coverage above the target, but one district each had coverage below target in each of these 2 indicators. The coverage target was not reached in the rest of the survey indicators in each of the districts. Conclusion: Well-performing districts, especially in indicators with inconsistent performance, offer valuable insights for learning and adapting interventions in districts that do not meet the desired coverage of those particular indicators. Considering the disparities in performance among different indicators and districts, project planners should adopt, modify and implement successful strategies in districts and indicators that perform well. By doing so, they can enhance the performance of under performing districts or indicators.
Analysis Translation Methods of Text Translation in the Novel Al-Liṣ wa al-Kilāb by Najib Mahfuz
Authors: Choirun Nisa' Ummi , Shalihah Imroatus , Qomari Nur
Published: July 2023

Based on Peter Newmark's translation methodology theory, this study aims to identify and classify the accuracy of the use of diction in the novel Al-Lis} wa al-Kila>b. A descriptive qualitative approach was used in this research type. Reading techniques, document analysis, and sampling were used to collect data. Meanwhile, data is being analysed at the following stages: 1) identify and classify the original text based on the translation method, then compare the diction with the translated text, and 2) analyse and provide reasons for the translated text's incompatibility with the original text. The results showed that the most appropriate translation method to use in this novel is one that favours the target language, because translation methods that favour the source language have some diction inaccuracies. The original text's source language contains a style of language that cannot be interpreted lexically but must be interpreted contextually. The study's implication is to improve the reader's understanding of the author's intended message.

Satu Abad Nahdlatul Ulama dalam sebuah Qasidah Karya KH. Afifuddin Muhajir (Analisis Semiotika Riffaterre)
Authors: Lutfi Mukhammad , Abdullah Abdullah , Suparno Darsita
Published: July 2023

The goal of this research is to uncover the true meaning of a Qasidah that employs symbols and indirect expression. The material object studied is Qasidah Nahdliyah Satu Abad Nahdlatul Ulama by KH. Afifuddin Muhajir, also known as Qasidah NSANU, which is a qasidah written to commemorate the centennial of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) on 16 Rajab 1444 H (7 February 2023 AD) according to the Hijri calendar. The descriptive qualitative method with Riffaterre's semiotic approach was used in this study. Riffaterre provides stages for understanding a poem's full meaning, including heuristic reading, hermeneutic reading, determining models, variants, and matrices, and determining hyprograms. The study's findings indicate that the Qasidah NSANU as a whole contains content about the history of NU's founding, its role in maintaining Indonesian unity, and the figures who played a role in NU's founding. This matrix was discovered after obtaining models in the form of words, phrases, and sentences. It is titled "a century of NU: the figure behind its founding and its attitude in maintaining Indonesian unity." The potential hypogram of the Qasidah's creation is a response from the Qasidah's creator's gratitude for the hundred years of NU, which is then poured into the Qasidah's text. Meanwhile, the actual hypogram was inspired by Hadlratus Shaykh Hasyim Asy'ari's jargon "Hubbul Wathan minal iman," as well as the song "Subbanul Wathan," or more colloquially "ya lal Wathan," composed by KH. Abdul Wahab Chasbullah.

Lie structure of the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra
Authors: CANTUBA Rafael Reno S.
Published: July 2023

As an associative algebra, the Heisenberg--Weyl algebra $\HWeyl$ is generated by two elements $A$, $B$ subject to the relation $AB-BA=1$. As a Lie algebra, however, where the usual commutator serves as Lie bracket, the elements $A$ and $B$ are not able to generate the whole space $\HWeyl$. We identify a non-nilpotent but solvable Lie subalgebra $\coreLie$ of $\HWeyl$, for which, using some facts from the theory of bases for free Lie algebras, we give a presentation by generators and relations. Under this presentation, we show that, for some algebra isomorphism $\isoH:\HWeyl\into\HWeyl$, the Lie algebra $\HWeyl$ is generated by the generators of $\coreLie$, together with their images under $\isoH$, and that $\HWeyl$ is the sum of $\coreLie$, $\isoH(\coreLie)$ and $\lbrak \coreLie,\isoH(\coreLie)\rbrak$.
Emergence of canine hookworm treatment resistance: Novel detection of Ancylostoma caninum anthelmintic resistance markers by fecal PCR in 11 dogs from Canada
Authors: Evason Michelle D. , Weese J. Scott , Polansky Benjamin , Leutenegger Christian M.
Published: July 2023

OBJECTIVE

To describe dogs with detected Ancylostoma caninum anthelmintic treatment resistance markers in Canada.

ANIMALS

11 client-owned dogs with fecal quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay detected A caninum with benzimidazole (BZ) resistance genotypic markers.

METHODS

Signalment, presenting concern, duration of clinical signs, fecal testing, treatment, and outcomes were obtained. Where available, follow-up data were collected via telephone or email with the primary veterinarian.

RESULTS

Ancylostoma spp was detected from 184/32,205 dog fecal samples by reference laboratory qPCR surveillance, between May 15, 2022, and April 26, 2023. 11 of these 184 samples had A caninum with genetic BZ F167Y resistance marker detection. 4 dogs had not traveled outside Canada, 6 had been imported from the US, and the travel history was unclear in 1 dog.

7 of the dogs had gastro-intestinal signs (diarrhea or soft stool) on initial presentation. Clinical improvement was reported in 6 of these dogs (resolution of diarrhea and soft stool), with 1 dog lost to follow-up. All 11 dogs received anthelmintic treatment (varied drugs and duration).

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Identification of genetic markers of BZ resistance raises concerns about the potential animal and human impacts of resistant hookworms. 4 dogs lacked an origin from or travel history to the US, indicating true emergence and/or novel spread within Canada, not just importation from an area where resistance has been reported. Fecal surveillance was performed with a qPCR test incorporating treatment (BZ) resistance markers. There is a need to raise clinician awareness around treatment-resistant hookworm in dogs and the capability of fecal surveillance for genotypic and phenotypic resistance.

The article examines the characteristics of the psychological and pedagogical conditions required for the functioning of the hybrid intellectual system of teaching (HIST) mathematics in high school. The article describes such internal conditions related to the development and primary trial of the HIST as the methodological basis of the intellectual management of educational and cognitive activity of students in general and the research and project activities in particular, the identification of the personalized parameters of the high school students’ scientific potential which determines the teaching content, the development of such diagnostic tools that can take the students’ individual psychological characteristics into account and serve as a component of intellectual management in the mathematical modelling of research activities, the development of the procedures and the methods of creating individual educational routes that are based on the students’ types of thinking. These conditions determined the architecture and functions of the hybrid neural network. The trial experiment on the internal conditions of the functioning of HIST involved 711 high school students. The results of the trial study indicate a steady annual increase in the number of students in experimental groups who get high scores, which is connected with an in-depth study of mathematics within the framework of the student's educational and research activities aimed at acquiring complex mathematical knowledge with the help of a hybrid intellectual system. The obtained results confirmed the effectiveness of the intelligent management system of the students' research and project activities. It was found that the external conditions, i.e. the readiness of the participants of the research and project activities to use the HIST, is not unimportant for its successful implementation. Consequently, the effectiveness of the hybrid intelligent learning system is determined not only by the readiness of the teachers, but also by the motivational and technological readiness of high school students to carry out research and project activities in a hybrid learning environment.
The Legitimization of Forced Migration: A Long-Term Consequence of the Paris Peace Conference and the Treaty of Lausanne
Authors: Kulczycki John J.
Published: July 2023

Following World War I, the Great Powers gathered in Paris to negotiate a series of treaties under the watchword “national self-determination.” By the beginning of the 20th century national homogeneity had become the ideal attribute of a nation-state, and in practice this is what the Great Powers saw as national self-determination. Only in very few instances did a population actually self-determine its future. In addition, the Great Powers took other considerations into account in redrawing borders in Eastern Europe, resulting in the inclusion of large minorities, which prompted the imposition of treaties protecting those minorities. If the new borders resulted in a change of an individual’s nationality, one could self-determine one’s nationality by “opting” for another nationality, but with the obligation to “transfer” one’s residence to the country of that nationality, the equivalent of forced migration and illustrating the primacy of national homogeneity over self-determination. The Treaties of Neuilly and Sèvres went further by obligating Bulgaria and Turkey to reduce their minority population. The failure of the latter Treaty led to a conference in Lausanne, at which the Great Powers in the resulting Treaty legitimized the expulsion of Greeks and Turks, providing an international sanction for forced migration. In the following decades, statesmen and others repeatedly invoked the Treaty of Lausanne by name as a successful model for dealing with minority-majority conflicts, supposedly by promoting national homogeneity, which culminated in massive forced migrations following World War II.
Cele wychowania rzymskiego arystokraty w V wieku n.e. w świetle listów Sydoniusza Apollinarisa
Authors: Bąk Aneta
Published: July 2023

During fifth century Gaul was struggling with barbarian tribes, which threatened the Roman order. Sidonius Apollinaris, as a representative of local aristocracy and bishop, believed that there was possibility to protect at least part of Roman traditions from their disappearance. He saw the chance for keeping them in bringing up the next generations. In his letters there are many examples of how a model Roman aristocrat should look like. This article analyzes fragments from Sidonius’ letters, which are connected with the goals of upbringing: being inspired by right people, education, caring of beautiful and correct latin language, caring of family name and creating social bonds. On their basis, a catalog of values, which were a hope for continuity of Roman life in restless times, was created.
Struktura przestrzenna Oviedo w średniowieczu ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem placów miejskich. Zarys problematyki
Authors: Bursiewicz Natalia
Published: July 2023

The aim of the article is to examine the process of spatial development in Oviedo in the Middle Ages, with a particular focus on the formation of urban squares. Oviedo is - in terms of Spanish urbanism - a special example, as it belongs to one of the first cities built on raw roots. During the Middle Ages it was an important administrative, religious and political center. Until 910 it served as the capital of the Kingdom of Asturias, and although it later lost this status to León, by the end of the thirteenth century, it was indeed a fully developed and important city. Like Santiago de Compostela, Oviedo had a strong sacred character, which in turn determined its spatial organization. As far as the spatial development is concerned, a well-thought-out spatial concept developed in the Middle Ages, which, although partially modified, has been preserved until today, deserves special attention. It is particularly interesting to look at open spaces and the process of their formation and transformation. These squares still function today in the same places.
Die Bedeutung von Kuno von Klebelsberg als Minister für Kultur und Bildung (1922–1931) in der ungarischen Kulturpolitik
Authors: Huszar Zoltan , Klein Agnes
Published: July 2023

The Government of Hungary’s view of the transformed economic and political situation in the new country can be vividly presented through the main features of Hungary’s cultural and educational policy in the 1920s. The government tried to find a way out of the national shock caused by the Treaty of Trianon by focusing on and promoting the quality and quantity of education, culture, and training, although revenge was still at the front of their minds. This bipolar process of swing -ing between past and future was led by Klebelsberg, who, as Minister of Education, headed the Ministry of Religion and Education from June 16, 1922, to August 14, 1931. Through his work and speeches, we can learn much about the spirit of the time, the main currents in politics and humanities, people’s thoughts about the Treaty of Trianon, and the ways it was dealt with - and it should also be emphasized that his work and the spirit of the time can still be felt today. Our most important research method is the processing of historical sources and, of course, the use of relevant specialist literature.

In this study, the reproductive and growth performance of Akkaraman sheep between 2017-2021 were evaluated within the scope of the National Sheep and Goat Breeding Project in the Hand of the Public, which is being carried out in the province of Nigde. In the research, data obtained from 30923 animals in 22 farms in 7 villages in the central district of Nigde province were used. In the study, the effect of year, dam’s age, gender and birth type on birth weight (BW), live weight on day 60 (LW1), live weight on day 120 (LW2), daily live weight gain (DLWG) on day 120 were investigated. The effects of year, dam’s age, gender and birth type on BW, LW1, LW2, DLWG were found to be statistically significant. While the effects of year, dam’s age and gender were found to be statistically effective on SR, the effect of birth type was found to be insignificant. In the study, fertility, fecundity and litter size in Akkaraman lambs were determined as 0.92, 1.03 and 1.13, respectively. As a result, remarkable progress has been achieved in Akkaraman lambs in terms of performance characteristics (LW1, LW2 and DLWG) between 2017 and 2021.
Por qué y para qué un laboratorio de innovación pública en el INAP
Authors: Herrera Díaz-Aguado Luis
Published: July 2023

Las administraciones públicas necesitan espacios de cocreación, diseño y experimentación diferentes a los habituales, muy formalizados y jerárquicos, en los que la colaboración, la empatía, la comunicación y la creatividad encuentran barreras y dificultades de distinto tipo. Lo más irrelevante es cómo denominemos a estos espacios, aunque últimamente es muy conocida la proliferación de laboratorios de innovación promovidas por y en el sector público, con distintas configuraciones, según prevalezca el diseño centrado en el usuario o ciudadano, o en las autoridades o los profesionales públicos. El Instituto Nacional de Administración Pública (INAP), actualmente dependiente del Ministerio de Hacienda y Función Pública, se ha sumado a esta búsqueda de nuevos espacios para el diseño en el 2022, a raiz del estudio “13 propuestas para la reforma de la Admnistración del Estado”, producido y publicado en el citado Instituto, con la creación del Labotatorio de Innovación Pública. El diseño de este laboratorio puede resultar peculiar teniendo en cuenta su incardinación en el INAP no como una unidad orgánica, sino como una función transversal para apoyar y dar soporte con todos sus medios y recursos a proyectos de innovación impulsados por emprendedores públicos (cualquiera que sea su configuración jurídica), que pretendan resolver problemas públicos y generen resultados tangibles y mensurables.

Polynomial Guidance for Impact-Time Control Against Maneuvering Targets
Authors: Li Haojian , Liu Yuanhe , Li Kebo , Liang Yan’gang
Published: July 2023

To address the issue of intercepting maneuvering targets at a specific time, a polynomial guidance method for impact-time control is proposed in this paper. Based on the relative virtual framework and the classical differential geometry curve theory, such method is divided into two parts: 1) the design of the relative trajectory-length-control (RTLC) guidance law against virtual stationary targets, and 2) the design of the prediction algorithms based on the guidance law or its characteristics. The former realizes RTLC, and the latter establishes the relationship between the desired relative trajectory length-to-go and the desired time-to-go, thus implementing impact-time control. Furthermore, based on the analytical properties of the guidance law in the relative arc-length domain, its performance, characteristics, and allowable impact time are analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed guidance method and the validity of the theoretical findings are verified by numerical simulations results.
Fatigue Crack Growth Mitigation by In Situ Healing in Thermoset CFRP Composite
Authors: Vishe Nilesh J. , Mulani Sameer B. , Roy Samit
Published: July 2023

Delamination due to fatigue loading in laminated composites is difficult to detect and, therefore, could lead to catastrophic failure if left undetected. Hence, it is important to be able to detect and quantify the delamination crack growth behavior due to fatigue loading and explore methods to heal the delamination in situ, without the need for mechanical fasteners. To this end, double cantilever beam specimens of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer composite containing thermoplastic healants were manufactured, and mode I fatigue delamination experiments were carried out for the virgin and healed cases for oven healing, and in situ macro fiber composite healing cases. The primary purpose of using thermoplastic healants (polycaprolactone and shape memory polymer) was to heal the cracks formed during fatigue loading and regain the load-carrying capacity of the composite structure. The in situ healing was carried out by activating the macro fiber composite actuators attached to the double cantilever beam specimen after 5000 cycles of loading to generate heat. After in situ healing, significant reduction in crack growth compared to the virgin cycle was observed, and healing was repetitive. We envision that these findings will be immensely helpful in extending the service life of composites and may also result in significant repair cost savings.
Experimental and Computational Study of a Rotating Bladed Disk with Under-Platform Dampers
Authors: Krizak Troy , Kurstak Eric , D’Souza Kiran
Published: July 2023

There has been an extensive amount of work developing reduced-order models (ROMs) for bladed disks using single-sector models and a cyclic analysis. Several ROMs currently exist to accurately model a bladed disk with under-platform dampers. To better predict the complex nonlinear response of a system with under-platform dampers, this work demonstrates how two linear models can determine bounds for the nonlinear response. The two cases explored are where the under-platform damper is completely stuck and also where the damper slides without friction. This work utilizes the component mode mistuning method to model small mistuning and a parametric ROM method to capture changes in properties due to rotational speed effects. Previously, these ROM methodologies have modeled freestanding bladed disk systems. To evaluate the ROM in predicting the bounds, blade tip amplitudes from the models are compared with high-speed rotating experiments conducted in a large, evacuated vacuum tank. The experimental data were collected during testing using strain gauges and laser blade tip timing probes. The blade amplitudes of the tip timing data, strain gauge data, and computational simulations are compared to determine the effectiveness of the simplified linear analysis in bounding the nonlinear response of the physical system.

QUESTIONING ANIMALS’ STATUS AS OBJECTS OF PROPERTY RIGHTS IN CROATIAN AND COMPARATIVE PROPERTY LAW
Authors: Nedić Tomislav , Klasiček Dubravka
Published: July 2023

The proper coexistence of humans and other members of the living world is one of the essential preconditions for forming the rule of law. Through the influence of the biocentric concept, under the auspices of bioethical and animal-ethical thinking, the legal regulation of humans and animals develops within the framework of animal law as a relatively new branch of law. One of the central topics within the mentioned legal branch is the discussion of animals as objects of property (proprietary) rights and, potentially, as holders of certain legal rights. The above represents a significant challenge to property law and the theoretical foundations of civil law, given that the Croatian Ownership and Other Proprietary Rights Act does not explicitly mention the status of an animal, but the status of an animal as a thing derives from the Croatian property law doctrine. The paper analytically, historically and comparatively examines the current legal status of animals as objects of property rights. Historical insight refers to the development of the paradigmatic position of animals as things established in Roman private law. Analytical elaboration of current property law statutory provisions and reflection of property law doctrine are placed in the comparative legal context of the civil law provisions of those countries that have recognized animals as non-things or as sentient beings.
COVID-19: From resource restriction to surgical services – How we waived off the waves
Authors: Biswas Ravi Shankar
Published: July 2023

Objectives:

In India, more than 43 million people were infected with the novel coronavirus (CoV), and more than 0.5 million deaths occurred in 2020– 2022. This severely affected the surgical services as well as the management of non-CoV disease (COVID) patients, especially in a transformed tertiary COVID care center.

Materials and Methods:

This cohort study was conducted at the Department of Surgical Gastroenterology, Medical College Hospital, Kolkata, India, from March 12, 2020, to May 31, 2022. The study included patients hospitalized for gastrointestinal surgeries matched with those having the same pathology and treated before February 29, 2020, (pre-pandemic) in a 1:1 ratio. Patients treated primarily in other departments and those who died undiagnosed were excluded from the study.

Results:

In total, 344 patients were operated on. A comparison of 30-day mortality did not show any significant difference (P = 0.74, odds ratio [OR]: 0.093, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.021–2.458). Time to admission (P = 0.003, OR: 1.512, 95% CI: 0.124–3.587) and time to surgery (P < 0.001, OR: 2.031, 95% CI: 0.023–6.738) were significantly high. Only pulmonary complications (P = 0.002, OR: 1.958, 95% CI: 1.021–3.968) were significantly high in the COVID-19 era. Patients infected with CoV in the perioperative period had a significantly higher morbidity (n = 50, OR: 2.58, 95% CI: 1.74–14.62).

Conclusion:

When scientifically managed, improved outcomes may be expected in the pandemic, even though many stones of epidemiology remain unturned.
