A depressão resistente ao tratamento (DRT) representa um desafio significativo na prática clínica, caracterizando-se pela falta de resposta adequada a múltiplos ensaios de terapias convencionais, incluindo antidepressivos e psicoterapia. Em resposta a essa dificuldade, a compreensão dos circuitos cerebrais subjacentes à depressão tem se aprofundado, revelando novas oportunidades para intervenções terapêuticas. A estimulação cerebral, que abrange técnicas como estimulação magnética transcraniana (EMT) e estimulação cerebral profunda (ECP), emergiu como uma abordagem promissora para o manejo da DRT. Objetivo: Compreender a relação dos circuitos e estímulos  cerebrais em relação a repressão resistente ao tratamento. Metodologia: Foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados PubMed, PsycINFO e Web of Science, consideradas fontes confiáveis de literatura científica em saúde mental e neurociência. Resultados: A estimulação cerebral, que abrange técnicas como estimulação magnética transcraniana (EMT) e estimulação cerebral profunda (ECP), emergiu como uma abordagem promissora para o manejo da DRT. Essas técnicas visam modular diretamente a atividade de redes neurais específicas envolvidas na regulação do humor, oferecendo uma esperança renovada para pacientes que não respondem aos tratamentos tradicionais. Conclusão: A investigação contínua sobre os circuitos cerebrais e os mecanismos de ação da estimulação cerebral está abrindo novos caminhos para intervenções mais eficazes e personalizadas no combate à depressão resistente ao tratamento.

Premature rupture of membranes (KPD) occurs in 5% of pregnancies worldwide. PROM causes limited movement in the labor position and inhibits fetal descent. Peanut balls are designed from elastic material in the shape of a peanut and are easy to use to open the pelvis, allowing for better fetal descent. However, there are still few midwives who understand its use in situations where pregnant women have limited movement. This service provides training to midwives in providing birth care to mothers with KPD. The method for implementing this activity uses peanut ball training. Participants are given knowledge and skills assessment instruments that are measured before and after community service activities. The service implementation was carried out in the Ujanmas Community Health Center Work Area, Muara Enim Regency, in 2023. The service team trained 18 midwives who were willing to take part in the training. The results showed that the midwives' knowledge about the use of peanut balls in KPD patients was initially mostly lacking (76%), but in the beginning At the end of the service most of them were good (90%). At the start of the service, none of the midwives' skills were able to use peanut balls on women giving birth, but at the end of the service, 100% of the midwives became skilled at using peanut balls. This peanut ball training has been proven to improve midwives' skills in providing care to mothers with premature rupture of membranes.

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are known vectors for Dengue Fever (DF). This disease is caused by the Dengue virus, necessitating control measures that do not harm public health. One such measure is the use of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide against Aedes aegypti larvae, the vector of DF. This experimental study employed a Completely Randomized Design with statistical analysis using the F-test. Four treatment concentrations and one control were tested: 5 grams, 10 grams, 15 grams, and 20 grams, with three repetitions for each treatment, observed over a 4-hour period. The study aimed to determine the effect of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide on Aedes aegypti larvae. The average larval mortality at a concentration of 5 grams was 4.3 larvae, 7.6 larvae at 10 grams, and 10 larvae at both 15 grams and 20 grams. The F-test results showed that at the 1% level, Fht > Ftb. Duncan's Multiple Range Test indicated that the effective concentration was 15 grams, at which all Aedes aegypti larvae died within 4 hours. The utilization of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide, with varying amounts of powder, resulted in different larval mortality rates. The higher the concentration of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale), the higher the larval mortality rate of Aedes aegypti.

USULAN PENGALIHAN JALUR KENDARAAN GUNA MEMINIMASI ANTRIAN PADA SAAT JAM SIBUK DI SPBU PURWAKARTA
Authors: Susanto Edi , Sugiharti Desi Tri
Published: July 2024

The increasing public need for fuel oil (BBM) creates quite long queues at every public fuel oil filling station (SPBU), as is the case at the SPBU-Simpang Veteran Purwakarta. Long queues occur on motorbike routes at certain times. It is suspected that the current queue is due to peak hours due to the ineffectiveness of the Regent's previous regulations regarding school entry rules which were supposed to start at 6 am and leave at 14.00 pm,  which were not implemented continuously. It is possible that during peak hours motor vehicle customers who fill up their vehicles with fuel will experience quite a high increase, resulting in excessively long queues on motorbike lanes. The length of the queue makes some consumers reluctant to wait and decide to leave and leave the queue. At the same time, charging lanes for car drivers are relatively empty because the increase in car driving customers is not that high. This proposal is a solution to problems that occur during rush hours in the morning and afternoon, namely diverting 1 car lane into a lane for motor vehicles is a strategy that can reduce the problem of long queues that occur on motorbike lanes.

Authors: Lima Ronaldo , Bezerra André Luiz Ferreira , Daibes Marianna , Domenico Claudio , Lorenzo Andrea De
Published: July 2024

Abstract Background: Gamma cameras with cadmium-zinc telluride (CZT) detectors allowed the quantification of myocardial flow reserve (MBF), which can increase the accuracy of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) to detect the cause of chest discomfort. Objective: To assess the clinical impact of MBF to detect the cause of chest discomfort. Methods: 171 patients with chest discomfort who underwent coronary angiography or coronary CT angiography also underwent MPS and MBF in a time interval of <30 days. The acquisitions of dynamic imaging of rest and stress were initiated simultaneously with the 99mTc injection sestamibi (10 and 30mCi, respectively), both lasting eleven minutes, followed by immediately acquiring perfusion images for 5 minutes. The stress was performed with dipyridamole. A global or per coronary territory MBF <2.0 was classified as abnormal. Results: The average age was 65.9±10 years (60% female). The anatomical evaluation showed that 115 (67.3%) patients had coronary obstruction significant, with 69 having abnormal MPs and 91 having abnormal MBF (60.0% vs 79.1%, p<0.01). Among patients without obstruction (56 – 32.7%), 7 had abnormal MPS, and 23 had reduced global MBF. Performing MBF identified the etiology of the chest discomfort in 114 patients while MPS identified it in 76 (66.7% vs 44.4%, p<0.001). Conclusion: MBF is a quantifiable physiological measure that increases the clinical impact of MPS in detecting the cause of chest discomfort through greater accuracy for detecting obstructive CAD, and it also makes it possible to identify the presence of the microvascular disease.
Elevação Enganosa do Segmento ST Ântero-Septal e Padrão de Brugada Causado por Oclusão Isolada da Artéria do Cone
Authors: Uzun Hakan Gökalp , Özgen İrfan
Published: July 2024

Resumo A artéria do cone (AC) irriga a via de saída do ventrículo direito (VSVD). A elevação do segmento ST nas derivações V1-3, que pode assemelhar-se aos padrões de eletrocardiograma (ECG) de Brugada, foi relatada devido à oclusão da AC. Um paciente do sexo masculino, 68 anos de idade, foi internado no hospital com diagnóstico de infarto do miocárdio sem supradesnivelamento do segmento ST. Uma angiografia coronária revelou uma dissecção na AC, provavelmente causada pelo cateter. Devido ao pequeno calibre da AC, a terapia medicamentosa foi escolhida como curso de ação. No entanto, após o procedimento, um ECG mostrou alterações consistentes com características dos padrões de Brugada tipo 1 e tipo 2, com elevações do segmento ST nas derivações V1-4. A imagem coronariana subsequente revelou que a AC havia progredido para oclusão total. Apesar das diversas tentativas de obter a reentrada no lúmen verdadeiro, não houve êxito. Com base na relação risco-benefício, foi tomada a decisão de continuar com a terapia medicamentosa. Este é o primeiro caso relatado de oclusão da AC induzida por dissecção por cateter, que se manifesta como elevação ântero-septal do segmento ST. O paciente não relatou sintomas anginosos ou eventos arrítmicos, o que contrasta com o conhecimento convencional. Nem todas as obstruções da AC ou infartos da VSVD causam padrões semelhantes aos de Brugada. Quando isso ocorre, as elevações de ST tendem a ser menores do que as da verdadeira síndrome de Brugada.

Published: July 2024

Resumo A furosemida é o diurético mais utilizado para o tratamento de sintomas de sobrecarga de volume em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. Dados recentes sugerem que a torsemida pode ser superior à furosemida neste contexto. No entanto, ainda não é claro se isso se traduz em melhores resultados clínicos nesta população. Avaliar se a torsemida é superior à furosemida no contexto da insuficiência cardíaca. Realizamos uma revisão sistemática e metanálise de estudos clínicos randomizados (ECRs) comparando a eficácia da torsemida em comparação com a furosemida em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. PubMed, Embase e Web of Science foram as bases de dados pesquisadas em busca de estudos elegíveis. Os desfechos de interesse foram internações por todas as causas, internações por insuficiência cardíaca (IIC), internações por todas as causas cardiovasculares, mortalidade por todas as causas, e melhoria de classe da NYHA. Parâmetros ecocardiográficos também foram avaliados. Foi aplicado um modelo de efeitos aleatórios para calcular as razões de risco (RR) e as diferenças médias (DM) com intervalos de confiança (IC) de 95% e nível de significância de 0,05. Foram incluídos 12 ECRs, envolvendo 4.115 pacientes. A torsemida reduziu significativamente a IIC (RR de 0,60; IC de 95%, 0,43-0,83; p=0,002; I2=0%), internação por causas cardiovasculares (RR de 0,72; IC de 95%, 0,60-0,88; p=0,0009; I2=0%), e melhora da fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo (FEVE) (DM de 4,51%; IC de 95%, 2,94 a 6,07; p<0,0001; I2=0%) em comparação com a furosemida. Não houve diferença significativa no número de internações por todas as causas (RR de 0,93; IC de 95%, 0,86-1,00; p=0,04; I2=0%), mortalidade por todas as causas (RR de 0,98; IC de 95%, 0,87-1,10; p=0,73; I2=0%), melhora da classe NYHA (RR de 1,25; IC de 95%, 0,92-1,68; p=0,15; I2=0%), ou mudança de classe NYHA (DM de -0,04; IC de 95%, -0,24 a 0,16; p=0,70; I2=15%) entre os grupos. A torsemida reduziu significativamente as internações por insuficiência cardíaca e causas cardiovasculares, melhorando também a FEVE.

Published: July 2024

Abstract Furosemide is the most used diuretic for volume overload symptoms in patients with heart failure (HF). Recent data suggested that torsemide may be superior to furosemide in this setting. However, whether this translates into better clinical outcomes in this population remains unclear. To assess whether torsemide is superior to furosemide in the setting of HF. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs comparing the efficacy of torsemide versus furosemide in patients with HF. PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched for eligible trials. Outcomes of interest were all-cause hospitalizations, hospitalizations for HF (HHF), hospitalizations for all cardiovascular causes, all-cause mortality, and NYHA class improvement. Echocardiographic parameters were also assessed. We applied a random-effects model to calculate risk ratios (RR) and mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) and a 0.05 level of significance. 12 RCTs were included, comprising 4,115 patients. Torsemide significantly reduced HHF (RR 0.60; 95% CI, 0.43-0.83; p=0.002; I2=0%), hospitalization for cardiovascular causes (RR 0.72; 95% CI, 0.60-0.88; p=0.0009; I2=0%), and improved LVEF (MD 4.51%; 95% CI, 2.94 to 6.07; p<0.0001; I2=0%) compared with furosemide. There was no significant difference in all-cause hospitalizations (RR 0.93; 95% CI, 0.86-1.00; p=0.04; I2=0%), all-cause mortality (RR 0.98; 95% CI, 0.87-1.10; p=0.73; I2=0%), NYHA class improvement (RR 1.25; 95% CI, 0.92-1.68; p=0.15; I2=0%), or NYHA class change (MD -0.04; 95% CI, -0.24 to 0.16; p=0.70; I2=15%) between groups. Torsemide significantly reduced hospitalizations for HF and cardiovascular causes, also improving LVEF.

The Manifestation of Malaysian Abstract Expressionist Art in the Context of Malaysian Modern Art (The Late 1950s-2010s)
Authors: Chow Sow Yeng , Abdullah Sarena
Published: July 2024

Malaysian Abstract Expressionist art has continued to impact and influence the nation’s art scene since the late 1950s. Malaysian artists such as Syed Ahmad Jamal, Yeoh Jin Leng, Latiff Mohidin and Chew Teng Beng have experimented and explored with abstraction in pursuit of their distinctive style, adding to the dynamic and ever-evolving context of Malaysian art. As the earliest proponents of Abstract Expressionist art in Malaysia, their influences are still strong today, as can be observed in the works of the following artists who achieved prominence in the Malaysian abstract art scene in the late 1970s: Sharifah Fatimah Zubir, Yusof Ghani, Rafiee Ghani, Suzlee Ibrahim and Awang Damit Ahmad. Thus, this paper aims to elucidate the connection between abstract art creativity and the aforementioned artists by examining the selected artworks produced by them. In this case, the domesticating strategy facilitated the transformation of Abstract Expressionism into the art creation of nine Malaysian artists, who used diverse abstraction approaches to convey their inner spirit. Based on the authors’ observation, the diverse abstraction trends bridge a connection between these two generations of Malaysian artists. Through the application of Edmund Felman’s visual analysis method, their works are observed to exhibit a variety of abstraction trends that have contributed to the diversification of Malaysian Abstract Expressionist art, which can be seen in gestural, pure, organic and calligraphic abstraction.

The key aspects of the works of domestic scientists are analyzed in the context of the historical development of fine arts and the artistic environment of Lviv in general, during the collapse of the totalitarian regime and in the first years of Ukraine's independence. Based on the method of systematization and synthesis of information, it was possible to outline the theoretical basis of the study of Lviv postmodernism of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Separate scientific sources are highlighted, which partially demonstrate the influence of postmodernism on the art of Lviv, and it is noted that the situation, characteristic of the whole of Ukraine, has acquired a vivid expression in Lviv: artists began to organize exhibitions more often, which no longer required the approval of the artists' union. The authors rejected Soviet templates and sought to expand the creative range of forms and methods. A protest against the old practice of "faceless creativity" began. The corresponding period in Lviv can be characterized as the heyday of postmodernism, which interacted with world trends and evolved into new forms. Art critics such as H. Vysheslavskyi, O. Holubets, A. Lozhkina, V. Sydorenko, H. Sklyarenko, B. Shumylovych and R. Yatsiv made a significant contribution to the illumination of this period. The source base is also demonstrated: catalogs, albums and other publications from exhibition projects. It was found that a significant part of mentions in newspapers, press releases, manifestos and photographs from exhibitions are in private collections.
The purpose of the article is to find out the state of coverage in the Ukrainian scientific discourse of the influence of postmodern trends on the visual arts of Lviv in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Attention is focused on the unsystematic and selective review of postmodern art of this period in the works of researchers in general, and the lack of scientific publications devoted directly to the analysis of Lviv fine art of the late 1980s — early 1990s within the framework of art historical analysis, as a result of which this problem remains unsolved.
Analysis of Path Convergence in Chord DHT

Chord is a Distributed Hash Table widely used for its efficiency in searching for information. The efficiency of this structure relies on creating short paths of O(log2 n) between two nodes, in which n is the number of nodes. To enhance efficiency, several studies use replication in the nodes belonging to the network, assuming that searches will converge in these replicated nodes. This work proposes a convergence formula and analyzes the number of searches converging on nodes for different network sizes (small, medium, and large), up to one million nodes. The experiments show that the convergence creates three zones and the results support the replication techniques from previous studies and demonstrate that it is feasible to replicate in nodes that were not considered in these studies.
The Impact of Social Media on Adolescent Mental Health: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Gabrielle Tiffany , Mathius Sonne  , Niama Nina Indolo
Published: July 2024

Introduction: The proliferation of social media has raised significant concerns about its potential effects on the mental health of adolescents. This meta-analysis aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of the existing research on the relationship between social media use and various mental health outcomes in adolescents.
Methods: A systematic search of electronic databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, Web of Science) from January 2018 to June 2024 was conducted to identify relevant studies. Studies were included if they examined the association between social media use and mental health outcomes in adolescents (aged 10-19) and reported quantitative data. Effect sizes were calculated and pooled using random-effects models.
Results: A total of 45 studies (N = 153,285 adolescents) met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis revealed small but significant associations between increased social media use and increased depressive symptoms (r = 0.12), anxiety (r = 0.10), and loneliness (r = 0.15). Furthermore, a significant negative association was found between social media use and self-esteem (r = -0.08). The analysis also identified several moderators of these effects, including gender, age, and type of social media platform.
Conclusion: The findings of this meta-analysis suggest that increased social media use is associated with a range of negative mental health outcomes in adolescents. However, the effects are small, and the relationship is complex, with several moderating factors. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms underlying these associations and to develop effective interventions to mitigate the potential negative effects of social media on adolescent mental health.

Published: July 2024

Patients with advanced chronic liver disease can develop specific pulmonary complications related or unrelated to pre-existing lung disease. The three major pulmonary complications in this patient population include hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), portopulmonary hypertension (PoPH), and hepatic hydrothorax (HH). These entities are most often revealed by increasing dyspnea together with signs of portal hypertension. The prevalence of these complications remains underestimated due to the lack of routine screening of the cirrhotic population. The pathophysiology of HH is better understood than that of HPS and PoPH. The clinical features, diagnosis, and therapeutic options of these pulmonary complications are extensively discussed in this chapter. Liver transplantation may offer a curative therapy in highly-selected cases and MELD exception points allow priority access to liver transplantation, thus avoiding potential deterioration while awaiting transplant and providing a better post liver transplant survival. The complexity of managing these pulmonary complications requires a multidisciplinary team approach, especially when liver transplantation is indicated.
Short-term Effects of Thoracic Kinesiotaping in Children with Bronchopneumonia:A Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Shah Sakshi , Borkar Tejas
Published: July 2024

Background: Respiratory infections, particularly bronchopneumonia, pose a significant health challenge in paediatric populations, often leading to respiratory distress and compromised well-being. In the context of managing bronchopneumonia in children, exploring non-invasive interventions becomes beneficial. The application of thoracic kinesiotaping is hypothesized to positively impact lung volumes by assisting respiratory function and facilitating breathing pattern.
Methodology: To determine the effectiveness of thoracic kinesiotaping on the functional capacities in children with bronchopneumonia, a group of 32 children aged 5 to 12 years were selected adhering to specific inclusion criteria. These participants were then randomly assigned to two groups. Group A underwent conventional respiratory physiotherapy exclusively while Group B participants received a combination of thoracic kinesiotaping and conventional respiratory physiotherapy. Pre-intervention assessment included baseline data, pulmonary function tests (PFT), Paediatric Dyspnea Scale (PDS) and Chest expansion. The treatment protocol spanned a period of three days. Analysis of data was done through Instat software.
Conclusion: The analysis revealed a notable increase in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) and the FEV1/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) Ratio during pulmonary function testing (PFT), accompanied by a marginal improvement in chest expansion. These findings suggest a positive impact of kinesiotaping on respiratory parameters, indicating potential benefits for children with pulmonary conditions.

Das Thema Arbeitssicherheit genießt in Lager- und Produktionsbereichen zurecht allerhöchste Priorität: Alle Mitarbeitenden sollen das Unternehmen bei Dienstende genauso gesund und unbeschadet verlassen, wie sie es zu Beginn ihrer Arbeit betreten haben. Ein weiteres Ziel besteht darin, transportierte Waren, Fahrzeuge sowie die Arbeitsumgebung bestmöglich zu schützen, um einerseits Kosten durch Beschädigungen und Bruch zu vermeiden und andererseits Prozessstörungen zu verhindern. Vorteilhaft für alle Logistikverantwortlichen: Das Angebot an Lösungen zum Schutz von Menschen, Gütern und Infrastruktur ist in den letzten Jahren stark gestiegen. Damit stehen Flottenmanager und Arbeitsschutzverantwortliche aber vor einer neuen Herausforderung: Sie haben aus der Vielzahl an möglichen Assistenzsystemen, Licht- und visuellen Warnlösungen das beziehungsweise die für ihren Einsatzfall richtigen Systeme zu finden.

Bone, one of the hardest structures of the body, is the basic constituent of the skeletal system, which gives the shape to the body, provides mechanical support for muscles and soft tissues, and provides movement. Even if there is no damage, bone remodeling is a permanent process to preserve and renew the structural, biochemical, and biomechanical integrity of bone tissue. Apart from the remodeling, bone healing is the highly complicated process of repairing deficiencies of bone tissue by the harmonious operation of osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts, and bone lining cells. Various materials can be used to both trigger the bone healing process and to provide mechanical support to damaged bone. Nanofiber scaffolds are at the forefront of these types of systems because of their extremely large surface area-to-volume ratio, small pore size, and high porosity. Nanofibers are known to be highly functional systems with the ability to mimic the structure and function of the natural bone matrix, facilitating osteogenesis for cell proliferation and bone regeneration. Electrospinning is an easy and fast method to produce non-woven structures consisting of continuous ultrafine fibers with diameters ranging from micrometers down to nanometers. The simplicity and cost-effectiveness of the electrospinning technique, its ability to use a wide variety of synthetic, natural, and mixed polymers, and the formation of highly porous and continuous fibers are the remarkable features of this method. The importance of nanofiber-based scaffolds in bone tissue regeneration is increasing because of suitable pore size, high porosity, osteoinduction, induction of bone growth with osteoconduction, adaptability to the target area, biodegradation, and appropriate mechanical properties, which are among the main parameters that are important in the design of polymeric bone grafts. The aim of this review is to cast light on the increasing use of nanofiber-based scaffolds in bone tissue regeneration and give an insight about bone regeneration, production techniques of the electrospun nanofibers, and varying formulation parameters in order to reach different drug delivery goals. This review also provides an extensive market research of electrospun nanofibers and an overview on scientific research and patents in the field.
