Published: March 2022

In recent times, despite the situation of the Covid-19 epidemic has had serious developments on a global scale, drug crimes in the world, in the region and in the country have continued to be very complicated. Southeast Asia is considered one of the world’s major illicit drug production centers. Vietnam is not in the group of large illegal drug producing countries, however, with its unique geographical position, border, road and sea routes stretching from the north to the south, causing difficulties in fighting drug crime. Research on drug offenders from the perspective of criminology shows that the psychological formation of drug crimes comes from reasons such as economy, society, culture, law, and people’s intellectual level. On that basis, the article proposes some solutions to improve the effectiveness of the prevention of drug-related crimes.

O IMPACTO DA JUDICIALIZAÇÃO SOBRE O SISTEMA ÚNICO DE SAÚDE
Authors: Maia de Souza Gabriela
Published: March 2022

O presente estudo objetiva discutir o direito à saúde, contrapondo a saúde coletiva versus a individual e analisando o impacto da judicialização sobre o Sistema Único de Saúde-SUS. Para tanto, aborda o direito fundamental à saúde, dando ênfase ao conceito e conteúdo mínimo; discute o direito à saúde sob a ótica do princípio da integralidade; e analisa o controle judicial das políticas públicas, com uma breve discussão sobre a reserva do possível, mínimo existencial e sobre a atuação preferencialmente sob a forma coletiva. No desígnio de cumprir o objetivo dessa pesquisa, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica em doutrinas e na legislação vigente, fontes de pesquisa estas que orientaram a elucidação do tema proposto com o intuito de buscar soluções para reduzir os gastos com a judicialização. Foi visto que o Judiciário tem de aprimorar sua atuação técnica na área da saúde pública, compreendendo-a em sua visão coletiva, sistêmica e integral e, também, incorporando o direito à saúde como parte de uma política pública de responsabilidade não só do Executivo, mas do Judiciário e da sociedade. No que diz respeito aos municípios, concluiu-se que as prefeituras devem verificar os medicamentos que mais são solicitados nas ações judiciais e avaliar se oferecer estes medicamentos espontaneamente à população seria mais vantajoso em termos financeiros. Decerto que se o orçamento dos municípios assim permitir, oferecer as medicações espontaneamente àqueles que necessitam é o desejável, no entanto toda análise deve ser feita priorizando a saúde coletiva, não podendo esta ser sacrificada em benefício da individual.

Published: March 2022

Esta pesquisa surgiu da necessidade de interpretação e de contextualização da pandemia do coronavírus e suas expressões da “questão social” encontradas nas inúmeras crises causadas por esta realidade, mediante discursos presentes nas tirinhas. Desde seu início em 2019, esta crise sanitária mundial causou diversos danos nefastos para a população brasileira e, por isso, se pode investigá-lo por meio de um lócus privilegiado sob uma perspectiva histórica, política e social. A seleção do corpus realizou-se, exclusivamente, através de pesquisas na plataforma Google, em uma das principais redes sociais do mundo: o Twitter. Para isso, escolhemos uma das maiores chargistas e roteiristas experientes neste gênero, a Laerte Coutinho. Para darmos veracidade nas análises sobre o “fenômeno pandemia”, utilizamos sites como: Folha de São Paulo, VEJA, Jornal da USP, etc. Isto posto, tendo como suporte a junção das áreas da Linguística e das Ciências Sociais no intuito de contribuírem efetivamente neste acontecimento mundial tão singular. Metodologicamente, esta pesquisa é caracterizada por ser de cunho qualitativo, por ser pautada na descrição e na interpretação de fenômenos sociais. Como resultados, percebemos como a presença de um microrganismo invisível e ainda intocável gera diversas fissuras nos comportamentos e nos hábitos da população brasileira, além de colocar limites em grandes impérios, a exemplo dos Estados Unidos e da China. Desta forma, podemos observar a função social das tirinhas no cotidiano brasileiro e a intensificação das iniquidades no contexto da pandemia e as maléficas consequências para a população que vive do trabalho.

A Quantitative Study of Risk Scores and the Effectiveness of AI-Based Cybersecurity Awareness Training Programs
Authors: Ansari Meraj Farheen
Published: March 2022

Cybersecurity awareness training plays a dynamic role for organizations in certifying resources' accessibility. This paper determines the correlation between an employee's risk score and the effectiveness of AI-based security awareness training that deals with cyber threats. The research uses the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology to update prior research, revealing that at-risk employees' behavior and information security awareness training implementation make up successful interventions. However, those studies did not discuss AI training, and so this research fills that literature gap. This study used a quantitative research design. The researcher analyzed survey responses using Pearson's Correlation and an independent t-test to determine statistically significant relationships and differences between employees' risk scores and an AI-based security awareness training programs' effectiveness. The calculations came from a sample of 200 participants from two different organizations. The Pearson product correlation of employee's risk scores and the effectiveness of the security awareness training program was statistically significant. The researcher also conducted an independent-samples t-test to compare the employees' risk scores by gender. There were no significant differences in scores. Male was higher than female ones. The mean difference was minimal. The findings herein help interpret the role of information security awareness training in the workplace, promoting behavioral changes that would impede data violations by including the users' vulnerability and the severity of intimidation, and the response to a threat in prognosticating behavior intentions.

Published: March 2022

The findings of an experiment examining the efficacy of different size of coarse aggregates on the fresh and strength properties of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) and Alccofine based SCC are described in this article. For this study, 5 different coarse aggregate sizes (10 - 4.75, 12.5 - 10, 16 - 12.5, 20 - 16 and 20 - 4.75 mm) were used with conventional SCC to determine the workability and strength properties. The water to binder ratio of 0.4 is maintained for all mixtures. Workability properties like slump-flow, T50 time, V-funnel and L-box tests and hardened property of compressive strength were studied. From the conventional SCC results based on sufficient fresh and strength values, the optimal blend is chosen and analyzed further with Alccofine substitution of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 %. The test results revealed that the maximum size of aggregate did not influence much on the workability. Whereas the combination of aggregate sizes with the replacement of cement by 30 % of Alccofine had given optimum results on fresh and strength properties. Also, a numerical analysis was carried out, with Finite Element Modeling (FEM) to analysis the compressive strength and compared them to experimental findings. The consequence of FEM shows it is a reliable technique to validate experimental data.

HIGHLIGHTS

The fresh and Strength properties of SCC were studied

Five Different sizes of coarse aggregates and varying percentage of Alccofine were used

The use of the mixed size aggregate had good flowability and better packing density

Replacement of Alccofine by cement enhanced both fresh and strength properties

Authors: Hameed Auras Khalid
Published: March 2022

The article emphasizes that 3D stochastic positive linear system with delays is asymptotically stable and depends on the sum of the system matrices and at the same time independent on the values and numbers of the delays. Moreover, the asymptotic stability test of this system with delays can be abridged to the check of its corresponding 2D stochastic positive linear systems without delays. Many theorems were applied to prove that asymptotic stability for 3D stochastic positive linear systems with delays are equivalent to 2D stochastic positive linear systems without delays. The efficiency of the given methods is illustrated on some numerical examples.

HIGHLIGHTS

Various theorems were applied to prove the asymptotic stability of 3D stochastic positive linear system with delays. Moreover, this system can be reduced to 2D stochastic positive linear system without delays

Asymptotic stability of 3D stochastic positive linear systems with delays depends on the summation of system matrices and independent on numbers and values of delays for that system

The principal minors and the coefficients for characteristic polynomials of 3D stochastic linear systems were applied to demonstrate the asymptotic stability when they are all positive

Treating HIV is made difficult by the evolution of antimicrobial resistant mutants of that occurs in the life cycle of this virus. This has led to the evolution of numerous inhibition mechanism that intends to challenges the replication of this virus. One such approach is the application of molecular modelling in drug discovery. In this study the application of computer aided drug design were employed in finding an inhibitor that can contribute in finding a suitable drug candidate. Firstly, the ZINC database was screened using the Lipinski’s rule of five, and compounds having similar biological features were classified and grouped together into a compound library. Secondly, the co-crystallized structure of 1rv7 wild type of HIV-1 protease was used to construct a pharmacophore model that was used to screen further, the ZINC database Ligand stored in the compound library. Thestructure-basedpharmacophore was created by mimicking the three main active features of the co-crystallized structure from the Protein Data Bank, namely, 82 and 84, I50 and I150 residues.Thirdly, a total of twenty-six of the compounds that had less than 0,5 RMSD were identified and selected. Fourthly, based on the best docking ligands, ten of these compounds having high binding affinity were selected.

Objective: The purpose of our study is to compare the outcomes in terms of blood loss, post-operative hemorrhage and operative time between bipolar diathermy and suture ligation for hemostasis in tonsillectomy. Study Design: Randomized Control trial Place and Duration: The study was conducted at ENT department of Peshawar Medical College Peshawar and Chaudhary Muhammad Akram Teaching and Research Hospital Lahore during the period from February 2020 to July 2020. Methods: There were ninety four patients of both genders with ages 5-40 years were presented. Included patients had chronic tonsillitis. After obtaining informed permission, the recruited patients' demographic data, including their age and gender, was recoded. Patients were equally categorized in two groups. Group I had 47 patients and received bipolar diathermy and group II received suture ligation among 47 cases. Outcomes among both groups were calculated and compared in terms of operative time, blood loss and post-operative complications. SPSS 25.0 version was used to analyze complete data. Results: Majority of the patients were males 55 (58.5%) and the rest were females 39 (41.5%) in study. In patients of bipolar diathermy mean age were 14.11±4.55 years while in group II mean age was 13.32±6.49 years. Number of left side tonsils in group I was among 25 (53.2%) patients and in group II left tonsils found in 30 (63.8%) cases. Mean operative time in group I was lower 11.9±8.88 minutes as compared to group II 15.4±4.35 minutes with p value <0.03. Mean blood loss in group II was significantly higher 40.15±7.71 mL as compared to group I 25.4±6.42 mL with p value <0.04. There was no any case found of post-operative hemorrhage in both groups. Frequency of ligatures among group I was 2 (4.3%) significantly lower than group II in 45 (95.7%) cases. Conclusion: We concluded in this study that the use of bipolar diathermy for hemostasis in tonsillectomy was beneficial and efficient in terms of less operative time with less blood loss as compared to suture ligation technique. Except this both technique are beneficial in term of post-operative hemorrhage which was not observed in both groups.

Maternal haemodynamic variations are communal during caesarean section by spinal anesthesia. Several measures are adopted to treat hypotension. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of phenylephrine and ephedrine in treating and preventing hypotension during C-section by spinal anesthesia and its outcome on the condition of the fetus. Place and Duration: In the Anesthesia department of Divisional Headquarter teaching Hospital Mirpur Azad Kashmir for six-months duration from July 2021 to December 2021. Methods: 120 total ASA grade-I patients with normal single pregnancy over 36 weeks who endured planned caesarean-section under spinal-anesthesia were randomized into 2 groups equally. Group I was given 5 mg rescue bolus and 10 mg prophylactic bolus dose of ephedrine intravenously during intrathecal block. Group II received 50 µg of rescue bolus and 100 µg of an intravenous dose of prophylactic phenylephrine bolus during intrathecal block. Haemodynamic variables such as heart rate and blood pressure were documented after every-2-mints until birth and every 5-minutes thereafter. The neonatal score was measured using the 1- and 5-minute Apgar scale and the pH value of the neonatal blood in the umbilical cord. Results: There were no differences in the treatment of hypotension among the 2 groups. The bradycardia incidence was greater in the group of phenylephrine. The variances in Apgar score, birth weight and umbilical cord pH amid the 2 groups were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Ephedrine and phenylephrine are similarly operative in the treatment of hypotension during elective caesarean section given spinal anesthesia. No statical variance in the occurrence of true fetal acidosis between the two vasopressors was noticed. Both groups have good neonatal outcome. Key words: Fetal acidosis, ephedrine, phenylephrine, hypotension and spinal anesthesia.

Background & Objectives: According to the Global Public Health Recommendation, infants should only be breastfed for the first six months of life for optimal growth, development and health. The WHO recommends that breastfeeding must be started early (i.e., within one hour of birth). Early breastfeeding within 1 hour and exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months are key interventions to reduce malnutrition and infant mortality. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of breastfeeding practices including onset time, colostrum feeding, pre-lactation and only breastfeeding (EBF) in infants (up to 6 months) in rural populations. Methodology: A cross-sectional population study was conducted in the rural areas of Lahore division for six-months duration from July 2021 to December 2021. 360 children were selected for the interview, but only the mothers of 320 children gave consent. The study was conducted on a door-to-door basis using a partially structured, predefined and pre-tested questionnaire with informed consent. Results: The study included 320 infants up to 6 months of age, mainly boys 170 (53.1%). The mothers of the 152 infants (47.5%) who participated in the study were 25-39 years old, followed by 168 (52.5%) infants’ mothers in the 20-24 age group. The results show that 72 (22.5%) mothers are illiterate. According to occupation, the most of the mothers were housewives (75.9%). 54(16.9%) infants started breastfeeding early (i.e., within 1 hour after birth). 298 infants received a form of pre-lacteal feeding than colostrum, contrary to the concept of exclusive breastfeeding, and surprisingly, Honey (previous documented information indicates that Ghutti was the most common (40.1%), followed by tea (30.2%). Only 113 (35.3%) children received colostrum and only 43(13.4%) were fed exclusively on their mother's milk. Conclusion: Early onset and exclusive breastfeeding, colostrum and pre-lactation feeding are not being applied to the desired level; We want to promote it through maternity institutions by providing the mother with appropriate counselling during prenatal visits, educating health professionals and the environment. Key words: colostrum, Pre lacteal feed and exclusive breast feeding (EBF).

Objective: To investigate the hepatoprotective effect and underlying mechanisms of β-Aescin in Isoniazid (INH)-induced liver damage. Methodology: This experimental study was carried out at the Pharmacology department and Postgraduate Laboratory of Isra University Hyderabad with the collaboration of Sindh Agricultural University Tando Jam. Forty adult Albino Wister rats, weighing between 200 and 250 grams were taken under a well-ventilated & hygienic environment at 26◦C of room temperature and light/dark cycle of 12 hours and divided into 5 groups, each group containing 8 rats. After experiment animals were sacrificed via midline incision, the heart was identified and blood was drawn by cardiac puncture into a plain vial. The blood was allowed to clot and serum separated and stored at 20○C till further use. The liver was identified, removed and rinsed with normal saline and weighed. Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate amino- transferase (AST) and bilirubin total were assessed using a commercially available kit. All the data were collected via study proforma, and analysis was done using SPSS version 26. Results: A total of 40 animals after dividing in 5 groups as per study protocol were studied; to observe the hepatoprotective effect of β-Aescin in Isoniazid (INH)-induced liver damage. The body weight of the animal was significantly decreased in Isoniazid (INH) control group, experimental group C and D, while it was cured by β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg. The findings are showing that the Isoniazid (INH) drug also significantly decreased the body weight and β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg showed the significant protective effects in the body weight. The weight of the liver was significantly increased in Isoniazid (INH) group and experimental group C and D in contrast to the normal control (p-0.001), while experiment group E (β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg) showed almost equal liver weight compared to the control normal group (p-0.345). β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg showed the significant protective effects of hepatotoxicity induced by Isoniazid (INH), as the average of ALT, AST, total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were significant decreased almost near to control normally in the β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg treated group (p-0.001). Conclusion: As per study conclusion the β-Aescin 3.6 mg/kg was observed to be a protective agent against Isoniazid (INH)-induced hepatic toxicity. It was observed as the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic to cure the liver. Hence, it can be used as a promising hepatoprotective agent.
