What happened in there? Confessions, credibility and automatic exclusion: the case of Artt and confession admissibility
Authors: Rea Eamonn
Published: January 2022

Confessions ought to be excluded if it is shown that credibility of the police’s version of events at interview is disputed, and it is found procedural requirements relating to recording of interviews under Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 Codes were not observed. This article posits that, where the assessment of what occurred in an interview room depends on the trial judge’s assessment of the accused’s credibility versus the police’s credibility, a breach of the relevant Codes should mean a trial judge should doubt the police’s version of events and prefer the accused’s version of events. This leads to the exclusion of the confession.While giving particular attention to the recent Northern Ireland Court of Appeal decision of R v Kevin Artt, this article suggests a policy that can apply to jurisdictions beyond the Northern Irish jurisdiction, especially where recording of interviews is not routine. Analogies will be made with similar provisions in the United States where appropriate.

Published: January 2022

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the most leading causes of death every year in the world. The threat of CVDs can be decreased and controlled with early diagnoses. Therefore, interpreting heart sounds is considered as one of the common ways to diagnose the cardiovascular system. Heart sound signal as known as phonocardiogram (PCG) provides useful information about the heart condition, which can be used in the diagnostic, and helps the physicians in the detection of several cardiovascular abnormalities. The technology development helped in the appearance of new diagnosis techniques, which combines new advanced signal processing techniques and deep learning algorithms. Thus, the heart sound classification is becoming a crucial task in the modern healthcare field. In this work a deep learning-based classification method was proposed. Using PCG database which contains five different classes taken from different cases of heart valve defects. Scalogram of heart sound signals was used as time-frequency representation to create a scalogram image database extracted from the PCG database. A convolutional neural network with Direct Acyclic Graph structure (DAG CNN) was used in the classification of the scalogram image database. The evaluation of the classification performance indicated that the accuracy was about 99,6\%. A comparative results manifest that the proposed method had a better performance compared to other previous works in which the same database was used.

Published: January 2022

En la actualidad, el abordaje de los determinantes sociales de la salud representa un enorme desafío dentro del paradigma biologicista predominante en las Ciencias Biomédicas, impidiendo evolucionar hacia un modelo en salud orientado a la prevención de enfermedades y promoción de estilos de vida saludables. En vista de lo anterior, el presente trabajo tiene como objetivo caracterizar el contexto de los determinantes sociales de la salud en centroamérica y su relación con la calidad de vida de los trabajadores del istmo y la población en general. Para ello, se expone el impacto y las dimensiones de la pobreza, la educación, el acceso a trabajo, las desigualdades en temas de género y la discriminación de las poblaciones vulnerables. Asimismo, se describe la forma en que se afrontan las inequidades sociales y laborales en nuestros países, así como las instituciones encargadas del estudio integral de estos determinantes. Adicionalmente, se reflexiona sobre la conformación de redes académicas interdisciplinarias de investigación como una de las estrategias más efectivas para analizar y enfrentar las inequidades sociales en salud, ejemplificada a su vez con una experiencia de movilidad docente y colaboración regional. Como conclusión, instamos a los gobiernos e industrias a implementar políticas de desarrollo sostenible cimentadas en el conocimiento generado desde los ámbitos académicos universitarios, sobre todo considerando el abordaje de los determinantes sociales de la salud en las poblaciones centroamericanas.

Authors: Melgar Quiñonez Mario Alejandro
Published: January 2022

Superar las adversidades para lograr mejores condiciones de vida, ha llevado a las mujeres a asumir grandes y pequeños retos. El miedo, la sumisión y la impotencia han sido el rostro de una realidad latente, donde las mujeres no han podido hacer frente a ese sistema de valores que no reconoce su papel y participación en los procesos de socialización y menos de cambio. Fue necesario promover una estrategia de articulación humana y social; los Círculos de Amigas y Compañera de Trabajo. Un fenómeno que hizo frente al ensanchamiento de la pobreza a través de un proceso formativo que se llevó a la praxis en el contexto de sus comunidades. Compartir esta experiencia como buena práctica, tiene el propósito de resaltar la importancia de la organización local como recurso de socialización y búsqueda de satisfactores y sueños. Conocer que, a partir de procesos asociativos, es posible construir la esperanza y el ethos de una nueva dinámica social. La metodología se realiza desde una mirada cualitativa, a partir de un proceso dialógico con el cual se va internalizando en el yo, luego en la otra y otras, sin exclusión de género; hasta lograr un asocio de fines e intereses comunes, donde las mujeres sean las protagonistas principales. Abrir el camino hacia nuevos derroteros, canalizar conocimientos y superar la inmovilidad social y espacial, lograr una articulación social amplia, con nuevas relaciones sociales y tomar conciencia de su papel histórico en las comunidades podría ser parte de los principales logros alcanzados.

Published: January 2022

Mishandling of petroleum products has been a significant source of environmental pollution and health hazards. Many microorganisms have the ability to utilize hydrocarbons as the sole source of carbon and these microorganisms are widely distributed in nature. Five (5) sites in Keffi, Nigeria were sampled to isolate hydrocarbon utilizing bacteria and fungi. The hydrocarbon products utilized were petrol, gear oil and engine oil. The hydrocarbon utilization was determined using the spectrophotometric method. A total of two (2) bacteria and two (2) fungi species were identified as the highest utilizers of the hydrocarbon products. The hydrocarbon utilization rate at the best temperature (37OC), pH (7) and time (28 days) was assessed. The utilization (mg/ml) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa for petrol ranges from 1.97±0.05, 1.31±0.034 for gear oil and 1.52±0.035 for engine oil. Alcaligenes faecalis utilization ranges from 2.2±0.022 for petrol, 1.57±0.031, for gear oil and 1.86± 0.034 for engine oil. Trichoderma harzianum ranges from 1.98 ±0.012 for petrol, 1.23±0.003 for gear oil and 1.73±0.008 for engine oil. Purpureocillium lilacinum ranges from 1.98±0.03 for petrol, 0.92±0.006 for gear oil and 1.39±0.035 for engine oil. The effect of microbial consortium on hydrocarbon utilization (mg/ml) for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Alcaligenes faecalis ranges from 1.83 ±0.035 for petrol, 1.33 ± 0.023 for gear oil and 1.46 ± 0.015 for engine oil. Trichoderma harzianum and Purpureocillium lilacinum range from 1.88 ± 0.041 for petrol, 1.45 ± 0.026 for gear oil and 1.63 ± 0.011 for engine oil.

Authors: Seo Su-Jung , Park Jae-Young , Park Hyoung-Jin , Hwang Jung-Taek
Published: January 2022

Background: The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of protocatechuic acid (PCA) on tendon healing and fatty degeneration in a chronic rotator cuff model.Methods: Twenty-eight Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly allocated into two groups: Saline+repair (SR) and PCA+repair (PR). The right shoulder was used for experimental interventions, and the left served as a control. PCA (30 mg/kg/day) was administered intraperitoneally at the site of infraspinatus tendon detachment in rats in the PR group, and the same volume of saline was administered to the same site in the SR group. The torn tendon was repaired 4 weeks after infraspinatus detachment. Four weeks after repair, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), S100, and CD68 stains were performed to evaluate the degree of fatty degeneration and H&E and Masson trichrome stains were performed to assess tendon healing. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) was measured to test the efficacy of PCA as an antioxidant. Results: Results from histological evaluation indicated that SOD and CD68 levels at the musculotendinous region and collagen fiber parallel to the orientation at the tendon-to-bone junction were not significantly different between the SR and PR groups. The mean load-to-failure of the PR group (20.3±9.4 N) was higher than that of the SR group (16.4±6.9 N), although this difference was not statistically significant (p=0.395). The SOD activity in the operative side infraspinatus muscle of the PR group was higher than that of the SR group, but the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.053). Conclusions: The use of PCA could improve tendon healing and decrease fatty degeneration after rotator cuff repair.

Published: January 2022

Background: Higher education in field of Nursing in the United Arab Emirates faces many challenges regarding the increasing number of nursing students at the Baccalaureate level in nursing programs, which in fact, is a similar situation in all parts of the world (Saifan et al., 2021; Wollin & Fairweather, 2012 & Torregosa et al., 2015). Method: This qualitative research is intended to discover the perceptions of UAE nursing undergraduate students, along with their teaching faculty, regarding the recruitment policies within the nursing colleges of the UAE. The grounded theory constructivist approach was followed. In addition, the “Conceptual Model of Academic Performance” has explained the data analysis of the responses. A focus group interview has been conducted with ten nursing students who were in their third year and five nursing lecturers. These students are attending nursing colleges in Abu Dhabi. In order to gain a clear understanding of their impressions, an open-ended interview has been conducted about current recruitment policy (in general), with a focus on the IELTS and GAP (tests) requirements, ie: minimum scores. Conclusion: The findings indicate that students were dissatisfied with the requirement of “Band (6)” for the IELTS test score. They suggested decreasing this requirement to a band of 5 - 5.5 for accepted college admission requirements. They were, however, happy with the high school GPA policy whereby more consideration was given to some students, which minimizes the expectations while simultaneously increasing their chances of becoming Emirati qualified nurses. Furthermore, by easing the requirements, the UAE has helped in reducing the current nursing shortage.
Enablers and challenges of caring in the intensive care unit-Part 1: In relation to patients, families and ICU environment
Authors: Al-Shamaly Hanan Subhi
Published: January 2022

The concept of caring is vague and complex, especially in critical environments such as the intensive care unit (ICU). ICU nursing care includes not only patients but also extends to patients’ families, nurses, other health team members and the unit’s environment. A focused ethnographic study was conducted in an Australian ICU. The data was collected from 35 registered nurses through various resources: participants' observations, documents reviews, interviews, and additional participants’ notes. Data were analysed inductively and thematically. The study outlines comprehensively and widely a wide range of enablers and challenges affecting caring in the ICU - which originate from different sources such as patients, families, nurses and the ICU environment. Nurses and other stakeholders such as clinicians, educators, researchers, managers and policymakers need to recognise these factors and their implications for providing quality care in order to enhance and maintain the optimal level of caring in the ICU. This paper is the first in a two-part series that explores the enablers and challenges to caring in the ICU. This paper explores the ICU nurses’ experiences and perspectives of the enablers and challenges to caring in the intensive care setting, in relation to patients, families and the ICU environment, while the second part will be concerned with the enablers and challenges of caring that are related to the nurses in ICU.

Published: January 2022

Introduction:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) versus conventional manual TKA in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Methods:

A Markov model simulated the lifetime outcomes of TKA of patients at average age 60 years. Costs of robotic-assisted TKA included a preoperative CT scan and the costs for acquisition and use of robotic equipment (average $706,250). We used three institutional case volumes to generate average per-case robotic costs: low volume (10 cases, $71,025 per case), mid volume (100 cases, $7,463 per case), and high volume (200 cases, $3,931 per case). Systematic reviews were used to determine early (≤1 year) and late (> 1 year) revision rates after robotic-assisted TKA (0.3 and 0.6%, respectively) and conventional TKA (0.78% and 1.5%, respectively). Outcomes were total costs and health outcomes measured in quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Costs and QALYs were organized into incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs). A procedure was considered cost-effective if its ICER fell below willingness-to-pay (WTP) thresholds of $50,000 and $100,000/QALY. Sensitivity analyses evaluated the effect of data uncertainty.

Results:

Robotic-assisted TKA produced 13.55 QALYs versus 13.29 QALYs for conventional TKA. Total costs per case for robotic-assisted TKA were $92,823 (low volume), $29,261 (mid volume), and $25,730 (high volume) compared with $25,113 for conventional. The ICERs for robotic-assisted TKAs were $256,055/QALY (low volume), $15,685/QALY (mid volume), and $2,331/QALY (high volume). ICERs for mid- and high-volume institutions were below WTP. Average number needed to treat was >42 and >24 robotic-assisted TKAs for cost-effectiveness at the $50,000 and $100,000/QALY WTP. Robotic-assisted TKAs remained cost-effective when annual revision rates <1.6% and quality of life values were >0.85.

Conclusion:

With lower annualized revision rates and higher postoperative quality of life, robotic-assisted TKAs potentially offer improved health outcomes, especially when annual institutional case volume >24 cases per year. Continued prospective investigation will be crucial to demonstrate the value of this new technology.
Cemented Versus Hybrid Technique of Fixation of the Stemmed Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Literature Review
Authors: Ayekoloye Charles , Radi Mehran , Backstein David , Qa'oud Moayad Abu
Published: January 2022

Stems are required during revision total knee arthroplasty to bypass damaged periarticular bone and transfer stress to healthier diaphyseal bone. The mode of stem fixation, whether fully cemented or hybrid, remains controversial. Improvements in surgical technique and implant and instrument technology have improved our ability to deal with many of the challenges of revision total knee arthroplasty. Recent publications that reflect contemporary practice has prompted this review of literature covering the past 20 years to determine whether superiority of one fixation mode over the other can be demonstrated. We reviewed single studies of each type of fixation, studies directly comparing both types of fixation, systematic reviews, international registry data, and studies highlighting the pros and cons of each mode of stem fixation. Based on the available literature, we conclude that using both methods of fixation carries comparable outcomes with marginal superiority of the hybrid fixation method, which is of nonstatistical significance, although on an individual case basis, all fixation methods should be kept in mind and the appropriate method implemented when suitable.

Recent changes in intensive vegetable production systems in Romania, but also throughout Europe, with the frequent and sometimes exclusive use of monoculture for certain groups of vegetables, including the Solanaceae group, have resulted in major changes in entomofauna in these areas. In addition, we are witnessing global climate change that also affects the composition and density of entomofauna in these agro-ecological areas. Under the influence of these two decisive factors, the dynamics of a pest population is oscillating and, therefore, some less known or newly entered species in the research area (invasive species) begin to cause significant damage to crops and especially to their control. 20 years after the first mentions of the attack, this pest causes considerable damage to the pepper crop, in the case of the present study, paprika. From the pepper crop for paprika, in 2020 in Chișlaca locality, Arad County, a number of 11 pest species were collected. The species Helicoverpa armigera was the predominant species, registering the highest number of specimens.The dynamics of larval populations showed an oscillating evolution, depending on climatic conditions, the maximum threshold being reached on the third decade of August.

Exploring the phenomenon of Human Resilience in Maya Angelou’s “Still I Rise”
Authors: Mehdi Saima
Published: January 2022

“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them” (Angelou 1). What is resilience? “The word comes from Latin and refers to a physical property: a substance is “resilient” if it returns to its original form after being bent, stretched, or compressed” (Nevins). It is the ability to bounce back in the face of any adversity, calamity or danger. Humans are blessed with the unique power to thrive, to sustain and guard themselves. Resilience is the realization and utilization of this potential. The spirit to fight and to resist without succumbing to the pressures empowers a person to grow and shine. One needs grit and determination to defy odds, obstacles and to overcome traumatic experiences, which in turn paves the way for growth and success. The present paper intends to celebrate the power and spirit of Human Resilience in times of distress and agony as depicted in Angelou’s poem. It also gives a message to the readers that nothing can let a person down if he or she has the valor to fight with all his/her might.

Violence in Vijay Tendulkar’s The Vulture: An Existential Phenomenon
Authors: Thusoo Umang
Published: January 2022

In this paper a focus would be made to track the details of Contemporary World Literature in English as a whole with an inclination towards the theme of violence in Vijay Tendulkar’s The Vulture in particular. The Contemporary World Literature provides an insight into social, moral and political aspects of human culture which is why one can identify oneself with the rest of the human populace. In a way, the theme of violence acts as a stimulus in this direction. The world literature has contained ‘violence’ in terms of conflicts in all social levels, whether it is with oneself, between family members, between communities or between nations, since ages. Any such kind of conflict arises from negative emotions in an individual such as fear, distress and sorrow. As a result, the individual is likely to feel forsaken and helpless and may turn to the literature world in order to understand his/her own experiences and the similar experiences of others. This paper offers examples from the past, running through the Middle Ages and extending to the present time. Moreover, there is an explanation of how violence in the antiquity is different from the violence in the existing period. An existential approach is made while defining the same: which is a 20th century philosophical movement emphasizing the uniqueness of human existence struggling through making choices between destiny and free will. Beside this, a segment has been included that deals with the prevalence and type of violence found in Indian Writings in English highlighting patriarchal and communal issues.
