Resumo O objetivo do estudo é caracterizar a assistência farmacêutica (AF) no sistema prisional do Rio Grande do Sul em termos de organização e infraestrutura no âmbito da atenção primária à saúde. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, com desenho transversal, conduzido entre agosto e setembro de 2022. A coleta de dados ocorreu de forma remota, utilizando um questionário elaborado e adaptado com base na Pesquisa Nacional sobre Acesso, Utilização e Promoção do Uso Racional de Medicamentos no Brasil (PNAUM). Um total de 51 unidades prisionais participaram da pesquisa. Não há área específica destinada à farmácia na maioria das unidades prisionais, sendo predominante apenas um local para guarda de medicamentos. Inexistem procedimentos operacionais padrão para atividades de AF em 78,4% das unidades prisionais. Em 9,8% dos estabelecimentos prisionais foi referida a presença de farmacêutico. Nenhuma condição de armazenamento dos medicamentos é monitorada em 31,4% dos locais. O fracionamento de medicamentos foi referido por 78,4% das unidades prisionais. Já a dispensação de medicamentos é realizada em 3,9% das unidades prisionais. O panorama da AF no contexto prisional se revela com importantes fragilidades e necessidade de adequação às regulamentações vigentes.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT As the demand for energy-efficient building solutions grows, innovative materials such as thermoplastic bricks have emerged as potential alternatives to traditional construction materials. This study investigates the thermal insulation properties of thermoplastic bricks and their suitability for enhancing energy efficiency in modern architecture. Various thermoplastic polymers, including polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), were analyzed to determine their effectiveness as insulating materials. The research also explores different fabrication techniques, such as injection moulding and extrusion, to understand their impact on the thermal performance of the bricks. Experimental evaluations were conducted using standardized thermal testing methods to measure the heat transfer characteristics of the brick samples. The results demonstrated that PVC bricks, especially those manufactured through injection moulding, exhibited the lowest thermal conductivity, thereby providing superior insulation. The study highlights the importance of material selection and processing methods in optimizing the thermal properties of thermoplastic bricks. In addition to their insulation capabilities, thermoplastic bricks offer environmental and economic benefits. They can be produced from recycled plastics, supporting sustainable building practices and reducing construction costs. This versatility, combined with their lightweight and ease of installation, positions thermoplastic bricks as a viable option for both residential and commercial applications. The findings of this study suggest that thermoplastic bricks can significantly contribute to reducing energy consumption in buildings, aligning with global efforts towards sustainable and energy-efficient construction. Further research is encouraged to explore the long-term performance and broader applications of these innovative building materials.
Exploring the role of rubber granules in modifying epoxy composites: a multi-scale approach using mechanical, thermal, and FTIR techniques
Authors: Rashad Baraa , Bdaiwi Waleed
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT This study investigates the incorporation of rubber granules (RG) into epoxy composites at volume fractions of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%. The objective is to enhance impact toughness and thermal insulation while addressing the trade-offs in mechanical properties. Composites were fabricated using a manual molding technique, and mechanical properties were assessed through tensile, compressive, bending, and impact tests, alongside thermal conductivity and FTIR analysis. Results indicate that adding RG significantly improves impact strength and flexibility, with maximum elongation at break observed at 50% RG. Tensile strength and hardness were reduced proportionally with RG content, however, the thermal conductivity decreased, i.e., the obtained materials had a better insulation property. Chemical shifts caused by molecular interactions after the impact testing were revealed by FTIR analysis. Based on these findings, we conclude that RG-reinforced epoxy composites are good candidates for energy absorption and thermal stability. Nevertheless, the lower stiffness and strength restrict their use in load bearing structures, posing a demand for the hybrid reinforcements for the broader industrial applications.
Investigation of double-skinned square steel-concrete composite columns with in-built square cores
Authors: Sumaja Gnana Betsy Basil , Nambiappan Umamaheswari
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT Double-skinned steel-concrete composite columns are famous nowadays in the construction industry because of their structural advantages. The analysis of the performance of double-skinned composite columns with two steel skins of the outer and inner tube, in addition to an in-built steel core in-filled with concrete, was attempted. Steel skins can serve multiple functions, notably defining the geometry of the concrete column and preventing cracks from tensile pressure. This article consists of the research work, numerical and experimental investigation, of the behaviour of Double-Skinned Square Composite Columns (DSSCC) with square cores in-filled with concrete under axial compressive load. The square steel tubes are of size 150 and 50 mm with 6 and 3 mm thickness of outer and inner tubes, respectively, and a height of 500 mm characterized by an inner core of 1 mm thickness. The steel tube considered in the current numerical study (using Abaqus 6.14) is of grade Fe250, Fe350 and Fe415, and in-filled concrete is of grade M20, M25, M30, M35, M40 and M45. The steel tube considered in the present experimental study is of grade Fe250, in addition to the steel cores, which are made of grade A1008 cold-formed steel. The average compressive strength of the concrete used in an experimental study, after 28 days of curing, is measured as 26.07, 32.89 and 40.29 N/mm2. The current study was performed to find the axial compressive behaviour, ultimate load, load versus vertical and horizontal deflection behaviour and corresponding stress and strain value and failure modes. Stiffness, ductility ratio and energy absorption capacity were determined from the observed test values. The results show that increasing concrete compressive strength improves the load-carrying capacity of the column. The experimental and numerical results were discussed and validated.

Published: January 2025

Abstract Carbon pricing involves assigning a monetary value to greenhouse gas emissions. This paper systematically reviews the state of carbon pricing in global agriculture over a 20-year period. Based on a systematic literature review, carbon valuation methods were correlated with prices attributed to determinants identified in academic publications, as well as extrapolated to the Brazilian agricultural environment. There was variation in carbon prices (minimum of USD 2.6/tCO2e and maximum of USD 157.5/tCO2e), determined by different socio-economic, agricultural and geographical heterogeneities. Our results showed negative relationship between Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita and CO2 emissions per capita, indicating high elasticity of emissions in response to changes in carbon prices. There was also positive relationship between nitrogen fertilizer use per capita and carbon price. In 2021, the estimated carbon value for Brazilian agriculture using quantile regression was USD 11.54/tCO2e. It is therefore critical that scientifically robust carbon pricing methodologies be applied to agriculture to serve as benchmarks for national environmental valuation systems.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT The contribution of photovoltaic energy has steadily increased within the energy matrix worldwide. Within this renewable energy system, optimization is there is continually pursued, which can be achieved through various approaches, including advancements in photovoltaic cell technology, impedance adjustments, inverter efficiency, collected energy storage (either on- or off-grid), cell cooling, module cleaning, and solar position tracking, which was the focus of this study. In remote areas without electrical grid access, motorized systems may not be feasible. A tracking prototype was developed whose structure is classified as chronological due to its fixed rotation, manual as it requires daily adjustment, single-axis azimuthal, and "analog" as it lacks motors, sensors, or algorithms. The results showed that the developed tracking prototype achieved a 9.69% energy production increase during the research period, with peaks of 35.51% on sunny days, and a significant efficiency improvement during the early morning and late afternoon. Statistical analysis results revealed a significant energy production difference between panels. In terms of economy, the prototype proved unviable when compared to the cost of grid electricity.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT During a survey of plant-parasitic nematodes in Costa Rica, Quinisulcius capitatus was isolated and identified for the first time in three locations: Barva and Santa Bárbara in the Heredia province, and Vázquez de Coronado in the San José province. The nematodes were extracted from soil samples by the sugar solution centrifugation-flotation method, and the specimens described and characterized based on integrative taxonomy. The adult nematodes of Q. capitatus are in accordance with the type population, but displayed slight morphometric variations in relation to those originally described: body length of 649.5-875.7 vs. 630-850, style length of 13.7-17 vs. 16-18 and percentage of vulva of 52.7-59.9 vs. 51-58. The D2-D3 expansion segments of the 28S rDNA from the recovered populations were sequenced and used in the phylogenetic analysis. The Costa Rican populations showed a high similarity and formed a separate clade with the Pakistani and Ethiopian populations deposited in the GenBank® database. This study expands the species geographic distribution and provides the first morphometric and molecular characterization of Q. capitatus from Costa Rica.

Abstract Introduction: The annual Brazilian Dialysis Survey (BDS) supports and contributes to the development of national health policies. Objective: To report the 2023 epidemiological data from the BDS of the Brazilian Society of Nephrology (BSN). Methods: A survey was carried out in a voluntary sample of Brazilian chronic dialysis centers using an online questionnaire covering clinical and epidemiological aspects of patients on chronic dialysis, and characteristics of dialysis centers. For estimates of prevalence, incidence, and source of payment for dialysis, data were obtained from a random sample of dialysis centers. Results: A total of 37.5% (n = 332) of the centers voluntarily responded to the online questionnaire, and 124 were randomly selected for specific estimates of prevalence and incidence rates. It was estimated that on July 1, 2023, the total number of patients on dialysis was 157,357 and 51,153 started dialysis in 2023. The estimated prevalence and incidence rates of patients per million population (pmp) were 771 and 251, respectively. Of the prevalent patients, 88.2% were on hemodialysis, 8.0% on hemodialfiltration, and 3.8% on peritoneal dialysis. The prevalence of anemia (Hb <10g/dL) was 29% and hyperphosphatemia (P >5.5mg/dL), 30%. There was an increase in the frequency of use of cinacalcet and paricalcitol. The estimated overall crude annual mortality rate was 16.2%. Conclusions: Estimates from a random sample of dialysis facilities show that the absolute number and the prevalence rate of patients on chronic dialysis continue to increase. A growing number of patients were undergoing hemodiafiltration and using cinacalcet and paricalcitol for hyperparathyroidism treatment.
A Close Multi-Target Tracking Algorithm Based on Weight Correction

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT When multiple targets are close to each other and intersect, the Gaussian mixture probability hypothesis density (GM-PHD) filtering algorithm experiences degraded tracking performance. To address this problem, a neighborhood multi-target tracking optimization algorithm based on weight correction is proposed. In the proposed method, a proximity monitoring mechanism is first introduced to detect the distance between targets. Next, the similarity between the measured data and the target predicted value is calculate to form a similarity matrix. If there are multiple data points in a row of the similarity matrix exceed the threshold, further correction should be performed on the data in that row. Finally, the weight correction matrix is formed by combining the above two steps. Simulation results demonstrate that the tracking accuracy and stability of the proposed algorithm are significantly improved in scenarios of multi-target intersection and parallel tracking, and its performance is better than that of the traditional GM-PHD filtering algorithm.

Authors: Santana Michelly Karoline Alves , Chagas Jr. Milton Freitas
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT This paper addresses the use of cooperative systems in the management of innovative projects and their contribution to increasing the chances of success in the case study of the KC-390 Program, a significant project in the Brazilian aeronautical industry. Based on the administrative theory of cooperative systems, the study focuses on collaboration and trust in innovative projects, using the Technology Readiness Level as a guide for decisions. Complex products and systems require customized approaches due to their complexity and high engineering costs. Innovation in these projects depends on collaboration and trust between the developer and the requester. The methodology used includes applied and qualitative research, exploring bibliographic, documentary, and field research data. The KC-390 case study highlights the partnership between the Brazilian Air Force Command and Empresa Brasileira de Aeronaves (Embraer), evidencing how this relationship has been fundamental for technological development. The paper also explores the dual certification process of the KC-390, where the implementation of a collaborative process in the Conformity Demonstration Planning phase brought innovation to military certification. This innovation broke with the traditional paradigm of certification of aeronautical products in the country and was possible, mainly, due to the relationship of trust between the certifying authority and the integrating company.
“Amamentar não é sobre amor, é sobre trabalho e saúde pública”: leituras de um lactivismo brasileiro e sua interface com os direitos sexuais e reprodutivos contemporâneos
Authors: Braga Raquel , Carneiro Rosamaria
Published: January 2025

Resumo Este artigo busca refletir sobre discursos de mulheres defensoras da lactação na sociedade brasileira atual, seus desenhos, bases e consequências para a sociedade. Para explorar as ideias sobre práticas de amamentação e sua importância, analisamos postagens, imagens e conteúdos de mídia da rede social Instagram, produzidos entre 2019 e 2022, por 11 militantes brasileiras da amamentação. Elas são mulheres de camadas médias, de diferentes regiões do Brasil, que na época tinham entre 24 e 41 anos, acesso à internet e escreviam sobre amamentação, cuidado e trabalho. De forma geral, reivindicam o reconhecimento da amamentação como trabalho de interesse coletivo, como tema de saúde pública e um direito sexual e reprodutivo a ser garantido pelo Estado. Nesse sentido, o artigo dialoga com a teoria feminista que tem pautado o assunto e amplia o olhar da saúde para a prática da amamentação.
Buccality as a Decolonial Alternative: an Integrative Review and Critical-Reflective Analysis
Authors: Spiger Vinícius , Silva Renata Marques da , Carcereri Daniela Lemos
Published: January 2025

Abstract Brazil contests the hegemony of the biomedical model resulting from the historical colonization by Europe to the support of North American foundations, by creating its Brazilian Nacional Health System. The concept of “buccality” proposes a broader perspective beyond this model, highlighting the need for alternatives that respect universality, comprehensiveness, and equity. This study aims to analyze buccality via an integrative review and reflection on its decolonial epistemological potential, including eight studies in its final sample. As an epistemological alternative, buccality values the mouth as a territory of experiences, opposing objectification. This study engages with European theories while still being critical of Eurocentric bias of modernity and approaches a bordering epistemology. This review found that buccality may integrate subjectivity and enable future research focused on the interests of Brazilian and Latin American oral health.
Cybernetics of self-regulation, homeostasis, and fuzzy logic: foundational triad for assessing learning using artificial intelligence
Authors: Rivas Edinson Oswaldo Delgado , Chiappe Andrés , Sagredo Angélica Vera
Published: January 2025

Abstract Today’s Education is increasingly mediated by digital technologies that imply new challenges that need to be addressed in detail to turn them into opportunities for advancement and evolution. Such is the case of the use of artificial intelligence in learning assessment processes, which is forcing us to rethink traditional methods, mechanisms, and strategies to assess student learning achievement, especially in distance and online Education. Given the complexity of the above, this analytical essay proposes a look at artificial intelligence developments that support the so-called “evaluation 4.0”, based on the application of fuzzy logic, homeostasis, and the cybernetics of self-regulation. Such an application would provide technical support and a general understanding framework for the evaluation processes for both teachers and students to promote evaluation processes more in line with the flexible and often imprecise and ambiguous nature of the learning and performance associated with the skills assessment in the framework of the fourth industrial revolution.
HEARING LOSS AND VASCULAR CHANGES OF RETINA ASSOCIATED TO NEONATAL POLYCYTHEMIA – REPORT OF 02 CASES
Authors: Sousa Beatrice Caroline Medeiros Bandeira de , Santiago Ana Cecília Travassos , Parcero Cintia Maria Medrado Felix , Carvalho Andrea dos Santos , Gomes Alan Gabriel Rocha
Published: January 2025

Objective: To report two newborn cases, one with retinal vascular changes and both with sensorineural hearing loss, which development factor could be neonatal polycythemia. Case Description. Case 01. A full-term newborn, without signs of perinatal asphyxia, developed symptomatic polycythemia on the second day of life and was treated with parenteral hydration. After 02 days, it developed retinal occlusion of the left vein and failed hearing screening test, which persisted in subsequent evaluations. Case 02. A full-term newborn, without signs of perinatal asphyxia, developed symptomatic polycythemia on the second day of life, treated with parenteral hydration. Neonatal hearing screening was normal, however, when repeated after three months, it developed sensorineural hearing loss in the left ear. Comments: Neonatal polycythemia is characterized by elevated levels of hemoglobin (above 22g/dL) and hematocrit (above 65%). Most affected newborns are asymptomatic. Simptoms may be secondary to hyperviscosity, which reduces blood flow and impair tissue oxigenation. There could be an association between neonatal polycythemia and retinal vascular changes or hearing loss, in which the reduction of blood flow secondary to hyperviscosity can be critical tissue with high oxygen demand. Retinal vascular changes due to neonatal polycythemia are rare, and there are no case reports of hearing loss associated to this condition. The main causes associated with retinal occlusion of the retinal vein were not found in case 01. Furthermore, the main causes related to neonatal hearing loss, including congenital infections and significant neonatal jaundice, was not present in the two cases of sensorineural hearing loss.

Developments in Chinese Chipmaking
Authors: Caines Colin C. , Jeon Sharon , Quijano Cheyenne
Published: January 2025

The global semiconductor industry has become a key source of global economic and geopolitical risks. Due to a combination of huge fixed costs, highly specialized human capital, and a high degree of geographic concentration at different stages of production, chipmaking exhibits extremely low substitutability throughout the value chain. Consequently, the industry is vulnerable to supply chain shocks, which, given the role of semiconductors as a necessary input to a huge array of manufactured goods (figure 1), can have large and persistent global effects. Moreover, chips are also viewed as crucial to developing frontier technologies such as artificial intelligence and are increasingly critical to national security.

Authors: G Jacques Florian
Published: January 2025

Developments in sequencing technologies and the sequencing of an ever-increasing number of genomes have revolutionised studies into biodiversity and organismal evolution. This accumulation of data has been paralleled by the creation of numerous public biological databases through which the scientific community can mine the sequences and annotations of genomes, transcriptomes, and proteomes of multiple species. However, to find the appropriate databases and bioinformatic tools for respective inquiries and aims can be challenging. Here, we present a compilation of DNA and protein databases, as well as bioinformatic tools for phylogenetic reconstruction and a wide range of studies on molecular evolution. We provide a protocol for information extraction from biological databases and simple phylogenetic reconstruction using probabilistic and distance methods, facilitating the study of biodiversity and evolution at the molecular level for the broad scientific community.

Authors: Kropotov M. A. , Saprina O. A. , Dobrokhotova V. Z. , Shturma A. D.
Published: January 2025

Introduction. Segmental mandibulectomy with exarticulation and single-step reconstruction is an important problem of craniomaxillofacial surgery. Revascularized autotransplants (iliac crest, fibula free flaps) are used to reconstruct defects of the mandible and restore joint function.

Aim. To evaluate functional, esthetic and oncological results of fragmental mandibular resection with exarticulation and single-step reconstruction using bone flaps.

Materials and methods. The study included 52 patients who underwent segmental mandibular resection with exarticulation and single-step reconstruction using bone flaps. For defects of the ramus and head of the mandible, reconstruction was performed using iliac crest free flap (5 cases); defects of the ramus and body of the mandible, fibula free flap was used (47 cases).

Results. Total necrosis of the flap was observed in 1 (4.7 %) case. Iliac crest free flap was modelled taking into account the size of mandibular ramus defect (usually to the angle of the mandible), mandibular head was formed from the distal part. At least one osteotomy was preformed on the autotrasplant near the angle, on the distal part the head was formed. Follow-up period varied between 1 and 5 years. Disease progression in the form of recurrence was observed in 15 (34.9 %) cases, in the form of distant metastases in 6 (13.9 %) cases.

Conclusion. For small defects of the ramus of the mandible, revascularized iliac crest free flap should be used, for large defects the method of choice is fibula free flap. Temporomandibular joint can be formed from the distal end of a bone autotransplant with its subsequent adaptation during functional load.

Published: January 2025

Introduction. Neoplasms of the orbit and periorbital region are usually represented by tumors of the eyelid skin  skin of the periorbital region  and paranasal mucosa. The most common histological types of this pathology are squamous cell and basal cell carcinomas. The main indications for orbital exenteration are tumor lesions in the extraocular muscles and orbital apex and irreversible vision loss in the affected eye at the time of surgery planning. In the absence of these pathologies  organ-sparing surgery is recommended. Resection of orbital and periorbital tumors (including orbital exenteration) leads to cosmetic and functional defects  therefore surgical treatment of this area should be performed only if other methods are impossible or ineffective.

Aim. To analyze the experience of resection of orbital and periorbital tumors and to evaluate short- and long-term results of surgical treatment of this pathology.

Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis of patients with tumors of the orbit and periorbital region who underwent organ-sparing and exenteration surgeries between 2003 and 2023 was performed.

Results. Overall 5-year survival was 55 %. It varied depending on a number of factors. The best 5-year survival rates were observed for basal cell carcinoma of the eyelid skin and periorbital region (83 %)  the worst for squamous cell carcinoma (34 %) and melanoma (41 %). For localized tumors (Т1)  overall survival was 76 %  for locally advanced (Т4) – 43 %.

Conclusion. Orbital and periorbital neoplasms are characterized by a variety of tumor morphological types and locations which requires multidisciplinary approach to treatment and rehabilitation of patients with this pathology.

Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest consumption of instant noodles. The demand for wheat imports has increased along with the increased consumption of noodles made from wheat flour. Sago flour is recommended for use as a raw material for noodles. The nutritional content of fish can increase the nutritional value of noodle products. This study aimed to determine the optimal concentration of skipjack tuna flour for sago flour-based dry noodles based on their lightness value and consumer preferences. The study included five treatments for sago-based dry noodles: control, skipjack tuna flour 2, 4, 6, and 8%. Dry noodles were then analyzed for lightness value and organoleptic. The best treatment then analyzed chemical composition (protein and ash content) and microstructure. The addition of skipjack tuna flour had a significant effect (p<0.05) on the lightness, aroma, and overall parameters. The lightness, aroma, and overall value of the 8% skipjack tuna flour were better than the control and other treatment noodles. Dry noodles with the addition of 8% skipjack tuna flour had a fragrant aroma, slightly less clear color, a delicious noodle taste, and a texture close to chewy; therefore, it was still acceptable to panelists. The noodle treatment with the incorporation of 8% skipjack tuna flour produced a high protein content of 5.56% (dw) and ash content of 1.12% (dw). Noodles with skipjack tuna flour (8%) have slightly truncated elliptical granules, and wheat noodles have elliptical granules.
Are there two linguistic norms in contemporary Belarusian?
Authors: Siwirska Anna Berenika
Published: January 2025

The article answers the question whether there are two separate linguistic norms in the modern Belarusian language. On the basis of grammars, dictionaries, textbooks, educational programs and scientific articles, the author highlights the differences between the two sets of spelling rules operating in contemporary Belarusian, discusses opposing tendencies in the method of assimilation of loanwords, presents variants of grammatical endings, describes separate word-formation models and highlights the differences in lexis and syntactic structures. In this way, he proves the presence of two separate linguistic norms in the modern Belarusian language. The first: official – in accordance with the so-called narkamauka, i.e. the rules presented in current textbooks on spelling and grammar of the Belarusian language, which draws many lexical, word-formation and syntactic patterns from the Russian language, and the second norm: purist - based on the so-called tarashkievica, i.e. spelling rules introduced by Bronisław Taraszkiewicz in a textbook published in 1918 in Vilnius. At the end of the article, the author shares with the reader her own reflections on the possibility of unifying the Belarusian norms in the future.
The Names of the Months in the First Belarusian Newspapers “Nasza Dola” and “Nasza Niwa”
Authors: Korbut Viktar
Published: January 2025

The article discusses the process of creating the system of month names in the Belarusian language. The systematization of names and their selection began in the first year of publication in Vilna (Vilnius) (since 1906) of the first Belarusian-language newspapers „Nasza Dola” and „Nasza Niwa” („Naša Niwa”). A possible source of words could be the „Dictionary of the Belarusian Dialect” compiled by Ivan Nosovich and published in 1870. The variability of lexemes is analyzed on examples from „Naša Niwa” from subsequent years (until 1915) and dialectal material from the 1920s. Attention is drawn to the incompleteness of the available dialectal material, the insufficient attention of scientists of the previous period to the names of months and the history of their functioning in the Belarusian language, which does not allow for a complete reconstruction of the process of creating their varieties both in Belarusian dialects, as well as in literary language.

Published: January 2025

Background: Tinea incognito refers to the unusual clinical manifestation of dermatophytosis brought on by prior topical or systemic medication use. Given the widespread and easy diagnosis of dermatophytic infections, steroid usage has created a diagnostic conundrum, thus turning a straightforward infection that may be treated into a persistent, long-term skin disease.
Objective: To examine the clinical characteristics of tinea incognito and correlate the clinical manifestations with the microbiological findings.
Methods: An observational study was conducted with 100 cases in a department of microbiology, dermatology, venereology, and leprology, in India. The baseline data of the patients and clinical features of tinea incognito were recorded. To identify the causative agents, skin scrapes were collected and tested as per standard protocol.
Results: In this study, 30% of the patients were between 31 and 40 years old. The male-to-female ratio was 2:1, 66% reported a history of application of the triple combination of steroids, and 34% used single steroids. Tinea corporis was seen in 30% of the patients, and the trunk/body (52%) was the most frequent site, followed by other sites (34%). Potassium hydroxide positivity was observed in 75% of the cases, cultural positivity in 77%, and both tests were positive in 75%. The most common organisms found were T. mentagrophytes (72.7 (56/77)%), T. rubrum (19.5 (15/77)%), and T. tonsurens 7.8 (6/77)%.
Conclusion: Tinea incognito is a fungal skin infection that can present with various nonspecific clinical features. This steroid-modified dermatophytosis is largely under-reported because the underlying fungal infection is masked by the irrational use of topical steroids

Published: January 2025

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), which is classified as pneumonia acquired outside healthcare settings, can progressively develop into sepsis—a leading cause of death in children if not properly managed. The risk factors for CAP-induced sepsis may vary with age due to differences in immune maturity, developmental
factors, and the underlying causes of pneumonia. This study aims to identify the risk factors associated with CAPinduced sepsis, focusing on the demographic and clinical characteristics.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the risk factors associated with the occurrence of sepsis in pediatric patients with CAP, with an emphasis on both the demographic and clinical risk factors.
Methods: This cohort study included cases of CAP in children aged 1 month to 17 years, and their disease progression was followed up to determine whether or not they developed sepsis. The univariate analysis was performed using the chi-square and Fische's exact tests, while the multivariate analysis was performed using multiple logistic regression.
Results: Of the 107 pediatric patients with CAP, 90 children met the inclusion criteria. Of them, 20 developed sepsis, while 70 recovered. The data analysis from this study identified two factors that significantly increase the risk of a child with CAP developing sepsis. These factors were temperature (RR 3.5 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.269~9.652]; p = 0.007) and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) (RR 3.5 [95% CI 1.708~7.171]; p = 0.021).
Conclusion: Temperature and ANC were found to be significant independent risk factors that may increase the likelihood of sepsis in children with CAP. Although these factors were significant in this study, future research is needed to determine how these risk factors vary by age, and CAP etiology can further refine early sepsis risk identification and improve targeted management strategies
A Rare Case Report of Haemopneumothorax Complicated
by Chryseobacterium indologenes Infection
Authors: A Shivaali , Luke Moby Saira , Louis John Maria , Shanmugam Priyadarshini
Published: January 2025

We report a case of haemopneumothorax complicated by Chryseobacterium indologenes infection in a 76-yearold male patient who sustained injuries to the left thigh and right chest. His past medical illnesses included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and coronary artery disease (CAD), and he had a personal history of chronic
smoking and alcohol consumption. The examination findings included an active lacerated wound on the left thigh and paradoxical breathing with tenderness over the right chest. Emergency wound exploration revealed a grade IV muscle tear of the vascular medialis and further evaluation revealed Type II respiratory failure, flail chest,
right subcutaneous emphysema, haemopneumothorax and multiple rib fractures. Treatment involved the insertion of an intercostal drainage tube on day 3 and the administration of empirical antibiotics and other supportive medications. The isolation of C. indologenes highlights the challenge of managing infectious complications in
traumatic haemopneumothorax, particularly in patients with underlying respiratory comorbidities. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to optimize outcomes in such complicated cases.
