Authors: Wanderley Daniel Dias , Coelho Yani Neves , Lago Bruno Corrêa do , Santos Eliana Pereira , Machado Erika Cinthia Quaresma
Published: February 2022

Introdução: A m aceração fetal é um processo séptico que cursa com degeneração, liquefação e esqueletização do feto. Este processo acomete frequentemente gatas, principalmente, devido ao uso de anticoncepcionais. Os sinais clínicos são dores abdominais, descarga vaginal purulenta, inapetência, apatia, perda de peso progressiva, aumento de volume abdominal, dentre outros. Objetivos: Relatar um caso de maceração fetal em uma gata. Material e métodos: Gata, 6 anos, fértil, sem raça definida, pesando 4,400kg. A tutora relatou que a paciente apresentava corrimento vaginal amarronzado em um período aproximado de 8 dias, onde o fluxo do corrimento aumentava com o passar dos dias. Na anamnese, descobriu-se o histórico de aplicação de anticoncepcional. No exame físico, a paciente apresentou temperatura retal de 38,6ºC e os demais parâmetros sem alteração, sendo notada na palpação a sensibilidade e elevada distensão bilateral do abdômen. Devido a hipossuficiência econômica das tutoras e amparado pelo exame clínico e reprodutivo bem conduzidos, foi decidido pelas tutoras que a paciente deveria ser submetida à laparotomia exploratória para elucidação do quadro e consequente realização de OSH tanto em caso de presença ou ausência de alterações uterinas. Tendo em vista que a suspeita de hemomucopiometra/aborto eram condizentes com o quadro, o médico responsável pelo caso, aceitou realizar a cirurgia para que a felina em questão tivesse uma chance de tratamento mesmo em condições econômicas desfavoráveis. Já durante a consulta foram aplicados Dipirona (0,05ml/sc) e Floxiclin 10% (0,15ml/sc) para controle da dor e infecção. Também foram prescritos amoxicilina, (2x ao dia/10 dias), cetoprofeno gotas (1x ao dia/4 dias) e hemopet gotas (1ml/dia/10 dias) para uso oral em casa, um dia antes da cirurgia e no pós-operatório. Resultados: Laparotomia exploratória com êxito ao encontrar o feto macerado, com possibilidade dos outros terem sidos reabsorvidos, identificando ao toque e na retirada o corpo fetal desmanchando e presença de ossículos definidos, fracos e quebradiços, com secreção amarronzada abundante. A medicação pós-operatória foi e uso tópico de Rifocina spray (BID/10 DIAS) e continuação da medicação anteriormente prescrita. Conclusão: Conclui-se que o uso de técnicas semiológicas bem conduzidas é uma ferramenta essencial no diagnóstico de maceração fetal.
HEMORRAGIA PULMONAR INDUZIDA POR EXERCÍCIO NA VETERINÁRIA: REVISÃO DE LITERATURA
Authors: Passoni Andressa Gabriela Jana
Published: February 2022

Introdução: A hemorragia pulmonar induzida por exercício (HPIE) consiste no achado de sangue no trato respiratório superior e/ou inferior e alvéolos pulmonares, seguidamente ao exercício, devido ao aumento da pressão vascular pulmonar, com falha na tensão do capilar e, assim, rompimento do mesmo, dentre outros fatores, tornando-a multifatorial. Tal afecção pode ser buscada através do uso de endoscópio introduzido por uma das narinas e lavado traqueobrônquico. Objetivo: revisar a literatura quanto a causas e alguns dos métodos diagnósticos empregados na HPIE mais aceitos na comunidade científica. Material e métodos: A pesquisa foi realizada através de busca nas seguintes bases de dados: Google Acadêmico e Scielo. A busca por material bibliográfico ocorreu no período de dezembro de 2021 à janeiro de 2022, sendo a filtragem dos artigos, pela leitura completa, selecionando apenas trabalhos em português. Resultados: No momento em que ocorre a externalização do sangue nas vias aéreas, o atleta apresenta queda de performance pois há dificuldade na oxigenação de seus tecidos. A pressão dos capilares em repouso é de 25mmHg, porém, em exercícios de alta intensidade, chega a 115 mmHg, sendo que no momento em que se encontra entre 75mmHg e 115mmHg, há o rompimento dos mesmos e os alvéolos se enchem de sangue. Porém, em laudos veterinários, nos quais não é possível observar nenhum grau de hemorragia ou grau 1 e 2, o sangramento nasal, mais possivelmente, poderá ter origem traumática. A realização da técnica diagnóstica com endoscópio é indicada após uma a duas horas após a atividade física, sendo, por meio desta, possível se realizar a graduação e ter uma ação preventiva na doença, visando melhor desempenho e vida útil no esporte para o atleta. Já a técnica de lavado traqueobrônquico, é indicada quando já se passou até uma semana do exercício, sendo de relevância para animais que não apresentaram sangramento. Conclusão: É necessário se atentar ao estudo do momento em que se encontra o animal para que seja feita a escolha do melhor método diagnóstico.
Effect of Mineral Admixture on Physical and Mechanical Properties of CLC Concrete Masonry Brick
Authors: Sutandar Erwin , Supriyadi Asep , Juniardi Ferry
Published: February 2022

One of the methods used to reduce the weight of a construction is by reducing the weight of the walls of the building. In such a case, a wall made of red brick has a volume weight of 1,500–2,000 kg/m3, and concrete masonry bricks made of CLC have a volume weight of 400–900 kg/m3. So, in comparison, concrete masonry bricks have a volume weight that is ≤ 50% of that of red brick. In the manufacturing of concrete masonry bricks, one variant is CLC (Cellular Lightweight Concrete), produced using a mixture of cement, sand, chemical admixture and water, with the filler material in the form of air generated as microscale soap bubbles (microbubbles), also known as foam agent. In the manufacturing of concrete masonry bricks, the mineral admixture as a filler material clearly affects the physical and mechanical properties of the bricks produced. This research is conducted to investigate the effect of the amount or composition of the mineral admixture (gypsum) on the physical and mechanical properties of concrete masonry bricks. The composition is varied among 15 kg/m3, 30 kg/m3, 60 kg/m3, 75 kg/m3 and 120 kg/m3 of gypsum in the making of CLC masonry concrete brick.

Um trabalho que envolve uma variedade complexa de conhecimentos, responsabilidades técnicas e acionamentos de outros órgãos, aliados a condições adversas como riscos físicos, biológicos, climáticos, dentre outros. Frente a situações de aquartelamentos e vigília que se dá por período de 24 horas contínuos dessa atividade sem interrupção da mesma equipe. Em 2005 foi alterada a Lei de Organização Básica (LOB) da Polícia Militar e o SIATE passou a constar oficialmente da estrutura do Corpo de Bombeiros da Polícia Militar do Paraná. Sendo este feito prestado de extrema responsabilidade e importância aos necessitados. A metodologia adotada no presente trabalho trata-se de uma pesquisa bibliográfica de caráter retrospectivo, abordando publicações entre 2009 a 2019 (10 anos), publicações na língua portuguesa, com busca manual em livros e revistas, foram pesquisados artigos disponíveis na Internet encontrados por meio das bases de dados: BIREME, SCIELO, ADOLEC e BDENF. Os profissionais do atendimento pré-hospitalar convivem com os mais diversos agravos à saúde, envolvendo dor, sofrimento, instabilidade, morte e vida, contribuindo para a ocorrência de ansiedade, tensão, por tempo prolongado de estímulos. Os profissionais do atendimento pré- hospitalar estão no ápice das escalas para desenvolvimento de quadros depressivos e síndromes de transtornos mentais. Diretamente, o estresse ocupacional tem correlação com o aumento dos níveis de depressão, ansiedade, crise de pânico e síndrome de Burnout. Levando assim, muitas das vezes, consequências negativas para a qualidade de vida do profissional Bombeiro Militar. Visto escassez, carência de artigos relacionados e olhares profissionais para com saúde mental desses trabalhadores, o presente estudo tem como objetivo auxiliar os gestores desses profissionais futuramente a buscar didáticas, políticas de trabalho à prevenção, identificação dos potenciais de risco e trabalhos de como manter salubridade no quesito de saúde.

Published: February 2022

O presente trabalho trata da problemática da avaliação textual a partir da perspectiva textual-interativa (RUIZ, 2001). Após estudos teóricos sobre o assunto (FUZER, 2012; FUZER; WEBER, 2012; MENEGASSI; GASPAROTTO, 2013, 2016), tem-se o objetivo de explicitar a importância e o significado que estratégias metodológicas, como bilhetes orientadores, apontamentos, questionamentos e comentários, possuem no melhoramento da produção escrita, uma vez que representam uma ferramenta dialógica utilizada entre professor e aluno com o intuito de revisar e de qualificar o texto. Por meio de exemplos que se baseiam nessa perspectiva de avaliação, evidencia-se a relevância da revisão textual a partir desse viés interativo. Como resultado da pesquisa, pode-se perceber que essas estratégias, por se basearem em uma concepção interativa de linguagem e em um entendimento processual de texto, possibilitam ao aluno entrar em contato com sua produção de um modo diverso da correção tradicional, o que as tornam metodologias de ensino diferenciadas.

In the realm of international private law, before a judge can exercise his/her authority to adjudicate a claim, it is necessary to find the governing law under which he/she can make a decision. To achieve his/her goal, the judge is obliged to explain the claim. After that, he/she places it in his respective liaison section, or enforces the conflict resolution rule related to that section, until he/she can reach the ruling law. In the case of the application of the conflict resolution rule, the judge faces two situations, which are co-ordination and non-coordination of the conflict resolution rules. One form of theirs is called negative conflict or renvoi. And it occurs when the countries involved in the lawsuit, have no authority to intervene and the law of the other country is considered to be justified in handling the lawsuit. The goal of this research is to identify the right law and the right court in case of conflict of law in order to better address the issue. That is, if there is a conflict between the laws of countries, it must first be determined whether it is a positive or a negative conflict, so that the problem can be easily resolved. If there is a negative conflict, as a result, the renvoi takes place. For renvoi, the law and the systems of the countries concerned should be studied well in order to resolve the problem easily. As a result of this research, we can understand that in case of a foreign case the judge should try to find foreign righteous law and should make a decision by applying the substantial rules of the righteous law.

Heart Rate Variability in Patients of Recurrent Stroke as Compared to Patients of First-Ever Stroke
Authors: Mishra Swati , Gupta Supriya , Kapoor Raj
Published: February 2022

Background- Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a common complication in stroke patients; both in acute and chronic phase. Multiple studies have found impaired cardiovagal or parasympathetic function in stroke patients which may result in cardiac arrhythmias and sudden death. Autonomic dysfunction increases cardiovascular risk in patients of first-ever stroke, but to the best of our knowledge very few studies have investigated if this risk is further increased in patients of recurrent stroke.
Aim- To assess and compare, the cardiovascular autonomic functions via heart rate variability (HRV), and therefore, the cardiovascular risk, in patients of recurrent stroke and patients of first – ever stroke.
Methods- 30 recurrent stroke patients and 30 first – ever stroke patients were recruited for this study. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) was used to assess cardiovascular autonomic function.
Results - Time domain parameters- SDNN (p=0.011), rMSSD (p=0.031) and pNN50 (p=0.041) and frequency domain parameters - LF power (p=0.011), HF power (p=0.026), TP (p=0.022) were significantly reduced in recurrent stroke patients as compared to with a single stroke event.
Conclusion- Our preliminary study shows that parasympathetic function is significantly reduced in patients with recurrent stroke than in patients with a single stroke event. This may indicate an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events and cardiac mortality in patients of recurrent stroke.

Authors: ManiArasi P. S. , Hathila V. P. , Jayaprakash D.
Published: February 2022

Background: The purpose of the study is to find the Combined effect of Active cycle of breathing technique and Autogenic drainage on PEFR and inspiratory capacity in participants following upper abdominal surgery. Post-operative pulmonary complication are common which increases the patients mortality. Changes in the respiratory system determines the risk factors of complications. These risk factors can be modified or reduced by the immediate post-operative management given to the patient at an early stage which can be aimed in improving the lung volume and clearance of secretions. Early physiotherapy is believed to reduce the pulmonary complications following major surgery. Lung function which is declined due to anaesthetic effect and the incisional pain which alters the normal ventilatory function in abdominal surgery. Therefore the study is aimed to analyse the outcomes of peak expiratory flow rate and inspiratory capacity in participants subjected to upper abdominal surgery on performing Active cycle of breathing technique and autogenic drainage in the post-operative period.
Methods: 30 subjects between the age of 30 to 60 years who have undergone urgent and elective abdominal surgery were included in the study. 15 subjects were given Active cycle of breathing technique while another 15 subjects were given both Active cycle of breathing technique and autogenic drainage. The exercises were given for a period of 6 days, and the outcome measure of PEFR and Inspiratory capacity are measured on the first day and 6th day for the comparison. Statistical analysis were done using students “t” test.
Results: The subjects who had performed only Active cycle of breathing technique for a period of 6 days shown significant improvement in both PEFR and inspiratory capacity. Similarly the subjects who performed both Active cycle of breathing technique and autogenic drainage also shown improvement on PEFR and inspiratory capacity. The PEFR on the Day 6 in Group B (338 ± 52.81) had significant difference than Group A where the PEFR was (263.33 ± 47.61). The inspiratory capacity on the Day 6 in Group B (2273.33 ± 201.66) had significant difference than Group A where the inspiratory capacity was (2106.67 ± 190.74).
Conclusion: The above study had proved that combined techniques of Active cycle of breathing technique and autogenic drainage increases the peak expiratory flow rate and inspiratory capacity, the lung function which helps to reduce the post-operative pulmonary complications in participants who have undergone upper abdominal surgery. This accepts the alternate hypothesis.

Authors: Trivedi Deepshikha , Das Arijit Kumar
Published: February 2022

Introduction: Intercostal (IC) muscles help in upward and outward movement of the ribs which results in increase in antero-posterior diameter of the thoracic cavity. The use of manual stretching procedure is prevalent in respiratory physiotherapy to improve pulmonary functions.
Objective: To determine the effect of Intercostal (IC) stretch and breathing control in improving the lung function parameters (Forced Expiratory Volume) in the first second (FEV1), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and FEV1/FVC % and respiratory rate among healthy young females.
Methodology: Thirty healthy female subjects, age 19-24 years were recruited based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and written informed consent was taken. Participant’s assessment and evaluation was done. Lung function parameters and respiratory rate were recorded before undergoing procedure. Subjects underwent three IC stretch for ten breaths on the inspiratory phase of the respiratory cycle followed by breathing control exercises with a time gap of 2-3 minutes in semi recumbent position. Immediately, following intervention, the respiratory rates recorded and lung function test were performed using spirometry to evaluate the effect of intervention. The total sessions last for 15 minutes.
Result: By applying Paired t-test for Pre and Post values of FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC and respiratory rate p-value obtained was 0.0001, which was statistically significant. This suggested that IC stretching with breathing control is more effective in improving dynamic lung parameters.
Conclusion: The study concludes that there was a significant improvement in the lung function (FVC, FEV1, FEV1 /FVC) and respiratory rate among the healthy young females who underwent IC stretch followed by breathing control exercise.

Authors: Kounsar Hina , Rather Suhail Raheem , Sajjad Sheikh
Published: February 2022

Introduction: Phacoemulsification is considered the gold-standard procedure for cataract. However, MSICS being less expensive can be considered a better procedure for doing mass surgeries. The purpose of this comparative hospital-based study was to assess the visual outcome in the post-operative patients of MSICS and Phacoemulsification.
Method: 160 consecutive patients who completed the post operative follow up of 6 weeks were included in our study with two groups of 80 patients each. One group of patients were operated by MSICS and another by Phacoemulsification. Proper ocular examination including visual acuity (aided and unaided), pupillary reaction, slit lamp examination and fundus was evaluated at week 1 and week 6.
Results: Amongst the 80 cases of phacoemulsification 74 (92.5%) had unaided visual acuity of 6/18 or better at week 1. In case of MSICS unaided visual acuity of 6/18 or better was present in only 62 (77.5%) cases at week 1. The results were statistically significant (P <0.01) in favour of Phacoemulsification. At week 6 Visual Acuity of 6/18 or better was present in 76 (95%) and 67 (83.5%) patients in Phacoemulsification and MSICS methods respectively, though better in phacoemulsification group it was not statistically significant (P>0.01). Similar was case with Best Corrected Visual Acuity at week 6.
Conclusion: Phacoemulsification gives better UCVA at 1st week than MSICS though both are equally safe and efficacious procedures with low complication rates and same visual outcome when compared at 6 weeks. MSICS can thus be an alternative wherever the requisite equipment and expertise for PHACO are not available.

Authors: Natalie Velisia Putri , Lay Daniel Setiawan , Luisa Jennifer
Published: February 2022

Vascular dementia (VaD) is a neurodegenerative disease with an ever-growing number of patients in global statistics. World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that there were 50 million vascular dementia patients in 2018, with almost of 20% of it are newly diagnosed cases. North America and Europe have a similar prevalence of VaD patients, approximately up 15 to 20 percent of the elderly. Whilst in Asia, the number is higher, which takes up 30 percent of the elderly population. Having limited modalities in treating the condition, novel methods with considerable efficacy and safety are needed in treating dementia. Ginseng, which is the root from plants of genus Panax, contains many types of ginsenosides which have been proven to have a significant effect in alleviating cerebral hypoperfusion, the main cause of vascular dementia. Turmeric, which contains curcumin, has shown to elevate cognition and halts neurodegenerative processes, and could act as a neuroprotector through LXR-Beta/RXR signaling pathway. The combination of Panax ginseng extract and Turmeric extract is a promising new alternative drug to treat cognitive and memory problems, particularly VaD, yet more clinical and experimental studies are required.

The arrival of the era of robots and autonomous machines is undisputable. It is anticipated that the future business environment will be characterized by a variety of intelligent systems and autonomous robots. In 2017, the International Federation of Robotics reported that momentum gained by robotic technologies is strong and that the sales volumes of both service and industrial robots is expected to grow. Building on this projection, the present study proposes a set of prerequisites or key determinants for the adoption of autonomous robots in the supply chain and logistics industry: technological context (i.e., relative advantage, complexity, and cost), organizational context (i.e., management support, financial support and employee competence) and environmental context (i.e., competitive pressure, customer pressure and vendor support). The study adapts a quantitative research design and uses an online survey to collect the needed data to test the conceptual framework and hypotheses proposed. Part of the study results confirms the association between the cost of digital technologies and the adoption of autonomous robots. However, the study found no evidence that the perceived relative advantage positively impacts supply chain and logistics firms’ adoption of autonomous robots. The study offers some managerial advices to supply chain mangers and marketers of the digital technologies and tools that can be applied in the supply chain setting.
