The article presents the material on the analysis of factors affecting the decrease in the functionality of agricultural machines and leading to the occurrence of failures. A classification of operational factors is presented, taking into account the influence of factors on each other. The factors considered were classified into different interaction groups and presented as a hierarchical fl owchart. The proposed classification of the considered operational factors is necessary to establish the relationship of the operational factor with the most significant group of factors and, accordingly, with the main elements determining the life of units and units of agricultural machinery.
The association of rectangular shape holes on energy intensity of grinding grain
Authors: Cherepkov A. V. , Konoshin I. V.
Published: April 2021

Grain before feeding to animals exposed to grinding with the purpose of increasing its digestibility. As a result of this increases the area of interaction of the feed with the gastric juice and decreases the conversion coefficient. Surface theory formulated by German scientist Rittinger, suggests that the work of AR required for the grinding process is directly proportional to newly formed surface. The purpose of this paper is a theoretical evaluation of the intensity of grinding with the use of sieves with rectangular and circular shape holes. When getting groats with the same grinding module by the use of sieves with holes of rectangular shape, one should expect the decrease of specific energy intensity. By reducing the content of dust-like fractions and reduce the total surface feed should be expected to reduce the energy intensity of pneumo transportation.
Causes, signs and medical care for poisoning with toxic technical fluids
Authors: Babanov S. А.
Published: April 2021

Quite often, poisoning with toxic chemical liquids occurs when they are consumed instead of alcoholic beverages. In case of spills of toxic technical liquids, especially in closed rooms, conditions are created for inhalation and transcutaneous intake of toxic substances into the body. When these liquids come into contact with the skin, toxic dermatitis occurs, up to the detachment of the epidermis.

Published: April 2021

The results of ichthyological and parasitological studies of the Kureiskoye reservoir are presented. The features of the formation of ichthyofauna during the formation of a reservoir and its industrial use are shown. The ichthyofauna of the Kureiskoye reservoir was formed on the basis of the indigenous fauna of the river. Kureyki. The modern composition of fish includes 22 species. Grayling fish are represented only by the Siberian grayling — Thymallus arcticus (Pallas, 1776). This species has a relatively small number of scales in the lateral line (no more than 95). Grayling is found in Lake Munduyskoye, which on average has about 100 scales. Since Munduyskoye Lake belongs to the river basin Kureyka, we believe that the second species, the black Baikal grayling Th. baicalensis (Dybowski, 1874) is also present. The main processes of its formation took place as in the Khantaskoye reservoir. Currently, the number of salmon and whitefish is decreasing. These groups of fish previously formed the basis of the composition of the original ichthyofauna. Today salmon and whitefish are found in the zone of backwater and flooded tributaries of river channels. The composition and number of whitefishes has changed especially. Tugun practically disappeared, others (peled, wild boil, vendace, and whitefish) began to be found singularly. The dominant role is played by pike, which uses peat islands for its spawning, as well as perch and roach. The transformation of the reservoir led to radical changes in the composition and structure of communities of all groups of organisms in the aquatic biota. This influenced the composition and abundance of fish parasites. The parasite fauna of the fish of the Kureyskoye reservoir is represented by widespread species of helminths. Infection with helminths mainly occurs when fish feed on planktonic crustaceans.
Problems of compensative fisheries: increasing the adaptive potential of broad whitefish Coregonus nasus (Pallas) in early ontogenesis by weak magnetic fields. 2. Histological analysis

Published: April 2021

In the second part of the article, we performed a cytological and histological analysis of the important functional systems of the control and experimental batches of juvenile broad whitefish as a result of a production experiment at the Sobskiy fish hatchery (settlement Kharp, YaNAO). The experimental batch was processed by the employees of Telos-Siberia LLC using generators of ultra-weak pulsed magnetic fields at the final stages of embryogenesis. We studied the state of internal organs, control and experimental juveniles of this species in the postembryonic period. During the cytological and histological analysis, no pathological changes in the internal organs were revealed. But the treated larvae showed a longer development of the nervous system; in larvae and fry, an intensive course of gameto- and gonadogenesis was noted. A significant increase in the number of primary gonocytes in larvae, larger sex glands and numerous gonocytes in fry has been shown. Also, the experimental fry underwent anatomical and cytological differentiation of the gonads in the direction of the ovaries earlier than in the control. At the end of the rearing period before being released into the Ob for feeding, the number of germ cells in experimental females significantly exceeded the corresponding number in control individuals. The data obtained allow us to conclude that superweak pulsed magnetic fields accelerate the development of the reproductive system, increase the reproductive potential of an individual and do not have a negative effect on the development of somatic systems.

Authors: Astafyeva Svetlana Sergeevna , Lozovskiy Alexander Robertovich
Published: April 2021

Three-year-olds (15 individuals) and eight-year-olds (15 individuals) of the sterlet × beluga hybrid (Asipenser ruthenus × Huso huso), grown in mesh cages in the Volga delta, were studied in the third decade of September 2019 in order to establish the functional state of the organism by blood parameters reflecting the state erythron and metabolism. The results of the performed study found that the erythron system differs in a smaller number of blood erythrocytes in eight-year-olds (0,76 ± 0,04 × 1012l –1) compared with three-year-olds (0,98 ± 0,04 × 1012l –1), in the absence of differences in blood hemoglobin and serum iron. Analysis of the state of protein metabolism showed that the content of total protein and the activity of ASAT in serum were the same in the groups. The serum albumin content in eight-yearolds was 17,87 ± 0,92 g/l, which was significantly less than in three-year-olds (24,15 ± 1,78) (p < 0,05). The relative content of serum albumin (as a percentage of total protein) in eightyear-olds was 51,04 ± 3,12%, which is less than in three-year-olds (72,51 ± 6,04%) (p < 0.01). The serum ALAT activity in eight-year-olds was lower than in three-year-olds (2,33 ± 0,16 and 2,93 ± 0,17 μkat/l, respectively) (p < 0,05). The results of the study of lipid metabolism revealed that serum cholesterol in eight-year-olds (2,62 ± 0,11 mmol/l) is less than in three-year-olds (1,39 ± 0,05) (p < 0,05). However, the serum triglyceride content did not differ between threeyear-olds and eight-year-olds, being 3,50 ± 0,07 and 3,26 ± 0,13 mmol/l, respectively. The glycemic values in three-year-olds and eight-year-olds are significantly different and amount to 1,80 ± 0,08 and 1,42 ± 0,11 mmol/l, respectively (p < 0.05). The results of the study can be used to assess the state of physiological adaptation of the hybrid and to determine the reference values of the parameters of the erythron system and metabolic homeostasis.

Published: April 2021

This study aims to analyze the legislative and executive public officials' actions in establishing multi-regulatory policies regarding forest and land fire disaster management in Indonesia. The present study represents descriptive qualitative research. The theory of power and authority, public policy theory, and collaborative governance theory were utilized to sharpen the research results. The data was analyzed using an interactive analysis. The results of the analysis were based on ontology, epistemology, and sociology research. To empower the prevention of forest and land fires in Indonesia, a vision and mission of public policies related to forest and land fires are needed; building prevention and suppression facilties; providing information to companies and the community regarding regulations and sanctions if forest fires are carried out deliberately; and a balanced provision of good land management. Forest and land fires can also be reduced by proper forest management focused on reducing trees, bushes, and grass that are too dense in fire-prone areas because they are flammable and can facilitate bigger and longer fires. A forest with trees that are spaced out is a good preventive measure in fire management. The research result shows that public officials have made multi-regulations so that the implementation is not effective. The results of this research are to be able to revise regulations that public officials have made. The researchers suggest that relevant state institutions as public officials in making regulations on forest and land fire management in Indonesia should conduct it in the form of one regulation and one institution, covering the holistic governance of disaster reduction.

The Effect of Magnet Structure on the Cogging Torque Reduction in a Permanent Magnet Generator
Authors: Nur Tajuddin , Suherman Yudha , Herlina
Published: April 2021

The cogging torque would still be a constant part of permanent magnet-electric machines. This happens because of the construction in which permanent magnets are attached to the rotor, and a slot is present at the core of the stator. The contact between the two, related to the distance between the magnetic surface and the stator slot, makes it challenging to eliminate the cogging torque. This study aims to maximize cogging torque by reducing it with a new method. The proposed method is a mixture of two techniques that indicate significant promise. This invention mixes two techniques to improve the final results. The first process is called magnetic edge shaping, and the second technique is called a dummy slot on the stator. A fractional slot number (FSN) type with 24 slots and 18 poles is the permanent magnet machine used for this investigation. This work is assisted by software version 4.2 of the Finite Element Magnetic Method (FEMM), which will simulate the original and the proposed design. The proposed method proved to be effective in minimizing the peak value of the cogging torque, as shown by the simulation results of 98% of the initial design. Combining the two techniques may reduce the tangential value of the flux so that the flux leading to the slot is lower than the initial design.

Published: April 2021

The article describes a new way to define the threshold voltage for Machine Learning-based Digital Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB), enabling the right cut-off point. Using the described methods, the authors obtained a gap to common mid voltage being around 0.5 V. The proposed technique is illustrated with three different loads of 3W, 5W, and 9W as the scope of this work. The authors try to apply it in Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB). It could be useful in a hospital with a limited number of technicians to maintain various machines quickly. This work tries to realize a machine that could find out the best condition to cut off the electricity when there is any leakage current but keep the supply if it is still under tolerance. This allows improving the mistake of the midpoint about 16.97% over its wide range. The effectiveness of Python libraries usage realized the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) implementation as one of machine-learning algorithms. The learning process is applied to the measured leakage current data set. It goes with input preprocessing, training, testing, and data analysis. From all of those steps, it is possible to determine the induction voltage threshold at 1.080 from 3.3V as its maximum value with a negligible loss value of 0.0006. By comparing the value with a reference, it can be concluded that this method could be used in a real situation.

ISOLATED ILIAC ARTERY ANEURYSM- 10 YEARS INSTITUTIONAL EXPERIENCE
Authors: Raman Prashant , Kumar S Prathap , B Velladuraichi , Sritharan N
Published: April 2021

Objective: To review the experience of our institution in repairing isolated iliac artery aneurysm (isolated IAA) in the
last 10 years.
Introduction: Unlike abdominal and combined aortoiliac artery aneurysms, isolated iliac artery aneurysms (IIAAs) are uncommon. An isolated
iliac artery aneurysm is dened as a twofold increase in the diameter of the iliac artery without a coexisting aneurysm at another location. IIAA
was encountered infrequently in the past, comprising 0.9% to 4.7% of all intra-abdominal aneurysms according to a review of previous studies;
however, in recent times, many asymptomatic IIAAs have been detected incidentally because of the widespread use of abdominal
ultrasonography and computed tomography.
Methods: The medical records of patients who underwent isolated IAA repair at Institute of vascular sciences, MMC and RGGGH, Chennai,
India, were reviewed, to obtain information on patients' demographics, vascular risk factors, type of treatment and outcome
Results: A total of 13 patients with 18 aneurysms, 11 men(84.6%) 2 women(15.4%), with a mean age of 58.1±6 years, and two paediatric
patients of age 11yrs (Female) and 3 months (Male) were treated. The mean diameter was 4.6 ± 1.0 for non-ruptured at elective repair; 5.5±2.1 cm
on the emergency cases. The majority of aneurysms were at the common iliac artery. All of them except one, underwent open repair.Ten (84%)
had elective operations, and two (16%) emergency repair for ruptured aneurysm.
Hypertension and diabetes were seen as the most common risk factors with most of the patients were smokers. One was a known case of CKD
and the paediatric female was a known case of RHD. There was one postoperative death in this series, patient succumbed on POD 1.
Conclusion: This case series reviews the literature with regard to the natural history, diagnostic workup, and treatment of iliac artery aneurysms.
For patients undergoing elective repair, preoperative imaging with computed tomography or magnetic resonance is advocated. Repair is
recommended for good-risk patients with aneurysms larger than 3.5 cm as there is high chances of rupture with increasing diameter.

Published: April 2021

The four modes of treatments in the Unani system of drugs are the ilaj bil- tadbir(regimental therapy) Ilaj-bil- Ghiza
(Dietotherapy) ilaj-bil-dawa (Pharmacotherapy) and ilaj bil yad (surgery). As far as possible, the Unani Physicians plan to
use simple physical means to cure a disease. Except for certain specic and sophisticated diseases it applies special techniques. Riyazat is one of
them. Exercise has great importance for the treatment of certain diseases, also as in maintenance of healthy condition of a person. It also prevents
occurrence of certain diseases. In the Unani System of drugs, an in depth account of Riyazat is described by Unani Scholars on Riyazat regarding
its types, modes, uses, benecial effects, In various classical textbooks like Alqanoon by Ibne Sina, Kitabul Mukhtaraat by Ibne Hubal Baghdadi,
Kitabul Murshid by Zakariya al Razi, etc. The Unani physicians have laid down rules regarding hard, moderate and lightweight exercises and
have also indicated the timings and conditions for various physical exercises. Exercise from the very beginning enhances innate heat (hararate
ghareeziya) and liquees or modies morbid matter which are deep seated and expel them through the channels of excretion. Hararat increases
local temperature. As per the recent research, exercise has proven to be of utmost importance in enhancing body's immunity in ghting off
infections. It has been scientically proven that the body's immune system functions better in individuals who exercise regularly
STUDY OF VITAMIN D STATUS IN TYPE II DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENTS AND ITS CORRELATION TO THYROID FUNCTION: A CROSS SECTIONAL STUDY IN A TERTIARY HEALTH CARE CENTRE IN TRIPURA
Authors: Debbarma Atul , Deb Papiya , Roy Shyamal
Published: April 2021

Background: There has been a marked variance in the prevalence of Vitamin D deciency in India. Limited evidence is
available regarding the correlation of Vitamin D with thyroid hormones in patients with Type II Diabetes mellitus
(T2DM).
Aims AND Objectives: To study the correlation of Vitamin D with thyroid hormones in patients with Type II Diabetes mellitus at tertiary health
care in Tripura.
Materials And Methods: Hundred patients with T2DM diagnosed as per American Diabetes Association (ADA) were studied in acrosssectional study which was conducted in the Department of Medicine at AGMC&GBP Hospital from January 2019 – June 2020. Blood tests were
performed to estimate serum vitamin D level and thyroid prole and correlation was obtained with glycemic parameters.
Results: T2DM was more prevalent in the age group of 60-70 years with mean age being 55.28 years. Majority had (52%) hypothyroidism, 38%
had had vitamin D deciency and 13% had vitamin D insufciency. Majority of the Vitamin D decient patients TSH > 5 µIU/mL (31%). Linear
regression analysis showed that inverse relationship between TSH and Vitamin D, HbA1c and Vitamin D. An equation of Vitamin D level
estimation was derived as Vitamin D level = 28.48 – 0.81 * HbA1c level.
Conclusion: Prevalence of vitamin d deciency is more prevalent among hypothyroid diabetics and the severity of the Vitamin D deciency
correlated with hypothyroid status.

Background: Infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the leading causes of anovulatory infertility.
Ovulation induction is indicated for the management of anovulatory infertility in PCOS and for augmentation of
ovulation in ovulatory infertility, in unexplained infertility. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare and determine the efcacy of
letrozole administration in infertile women with PCOS to that of infertile women without PCOS by transvaginal sonography. This Methods:
study was done at Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of JLNMCH, Bhagalpur, Bihar from January to December 2020. Fifty six infertile
women including 16 diagnosed as having PCOS and 40 infertile women with regular menstrual cycle (non-PCOS) were included in this study.
Patients were treated with letrozole 7.5 mg/day from day 2-6 of the menstrual cycle. Subjects were monitored once during the days 11 to 14 of the
cycle by transvaginal ultrasound. Main outcome measures were number of ovulatory follicles, dominant follicle diameter and endometrial
thickness. Letrozole as an ovulation inducing drug was found equally effective in t Results: erms of follicular recruitment, follicular maturation
and endometrial development both in PCOS and non-PCOS women, as there was no signicant difference regarding mature follicular
development and endometrial response between the two study groups. Association of endometrial response particularly with follicular diameter
18 mm or more among the study groups revealed no statistically signicant difference. In conclusion, our results indicate that the Conclusion:
effect of letrozole on endometrial thickness and follicular development in patients of anovulatory PCOS did not signicantly differ compared to
non-PCOS infertile women.

Post-Reform Evaluation of the Transmission Sub-System of the Nigerian Electricity Value-Chain
Authors: Ajewole T.O.
Published: April 2021

This paper provides a post-deregulation performance assessment of the transmission infrastructure of the Nigerian electric power grid using nine years performance profile of eight primary lines of the transmission sub-system. Performances of the lines for the six earliest postderegulation years are evaluated on a three-year basis, taking their performances for the three-year period that immediately preceded the deregulation as a baseline for comparison. Failure counts and outage durations per each line, in the two three-year post-reform periods, are compared to what was obtained in the baseline period. The results obtained show that the deregulation has not yielded significant improvement in the reliability of the transmission network. This indicates that better attention is needed to be given to the transmission assets being at the heart of the power system. Like the privatized assets of the industry, the state-owned Transmission Company of Nigeria must also be properly attended to in order to achieve sustainable development in the Nigerian electric power sector..
