Published: March 2022

Fine-needle aspiration cytology FNAC is the single most important diagnostic test for the evaluation of patients with thyroid lesions, it has been almost universally recognized as constituting the most significant advance of the past 20 years in the diagnostic evaluation of patients who present with palpable nodules of the thyroid gland. In this study, the effectiveness of fine needle aspiration cytology was evaluated through the identification of the correlation between the cytology diagnosis of thyroid fine needle aspiration cytology and the postoperative histopathological diagnosis. This is a retrospective study was performed on 80 cases underwent to both thyroid cytological and histopathological diagnosis, reports were retrieved from pathology archive of Aden Diagnostic Center/ Aden Governorate, during the period of 2012-2013. The inclusion criteria is that all patients, irrespective of sex and age; having thyroid lesion, diagnosed cytologically and confirmed histologically. Whereas the exclusion criteria: (1) Patients having history of recurrent thyroid carcinoma after lobectomy (2) patients who underwent fine needle aspiration cytology but did not undergo subsequent histopathological diagnosis (3) patients undergoing chemotherapy. Cytological study results in (85%) benign and (15%) malignant cases, while histological examination revealed (64%) benign cases and (16%) malignant cases. The most common benign lesion diagnosed by both cytologically and histologically was colloid goiter (63.7%) and (56.2%) respectively, followed by follicular adenoma, cytologically(15%) and histologically (21.25%), while Hashimotos` thyroditis was the less common lesion which is, by cytological diagnosis (6.25%) and by histological diagnosis (2.5%). The main malignant lesion was papillary carcinoma, (15%) of the cases were diagnosed cytologically and (20%) were diagnosed histologically. Fine needle aspiration cytology sensitivity was (62.5%), specificity (97%), Positive predictive value (83.3%), negative predictive value (91.1%), and accuracy (90%). Benign lesions were the most common than malignant, as diagnosed by both cytologically and histologically. The most common benign lesion diagnosed by both methods was colloid goiter, followed by follicular adenoma. The main malignant lesion was papillary carcinoma by methods of diagnosis. False negative cases represent 7.5% and false positive represent 2.5%. Statistical analysis for cytological diagnosis revealed that it was moderately sensitive, highly specific, and accurate.

Published: March 2022

The field of dysmorphology has expanded dramatically as the number of recognizable patterns of malformation has more than tripled during the last 30 years. Major congenital anomalies are currently the leading cause of perinatal, neonatal and infant mortality worldwide, including Yemen. A basic method to investigate congenital anomalies is through medical review records at hospitals and child maternity services. A retrospective analytic study through review of medical records was conducted includeding 1920 patients in all major congenital anomalies with a male to female ratio of 2:1 within age range from 1 day to15 years at Al-Sadaqa and Al-Gamhouria Teaching Hospitals, Aden city, Yemen, during January 2000 to December 2007. Digestive system (DTS) 649 (33.8%) formed the commonest major congenital anomalies, followed by circulatory system (CVS) 416 (21.7%), central nervous system (CNS) 273 (14.2%), urogenital system (UGS) 202 (10.5%) and musculoskeletal system (MSK) 137 (7.1%). Generation of the available information will form the basis to reflect the magnitude of these birth defects, their pattern and any associated risk factors. These results will have important implications in planning appropriate preventive, therapeutic and rehabilitative programs. Future plan would include the implementation of innovative health education strategies and standard screening with sophisticated diagnostic procedures.

Subtitling, Semiotics and Spirited Away
Authors: Sanders Lisa
Published: March 2022

When translating a film according to typical subtitling models, the focus is usually solely on the dialogue of the film. Furthermore, the resulting translations are often impoverished to a large extent due to the constraints of the medium. The combined effects of this result in a significant loss of equivalence between the subtitles and the original linguistic and extralinguistic information. A potential method of preventing this loss is the application of a semiotic model for translation during the subtitling process. To this end, an existing model for the semiotranslation of film was enhanced and applied to the subtitling of the wildly popular Japanese animated film Spirited Away (2001). The resulting subtitles were evaluated for equivalence with the source text (ST) against the existing subtitle track that was distributed on a DVD release of the film. It was found that much more information, both from dialogue and on-screen extralinguistic content, could be conveyed by the semiotic subtitles than those created following more traditional subtitling norms.
Lay summary
When subtitles are created for films, the translators usually focus only on the dialogue that is spoken. Subtitles also often tend to have missing information, and are not written word-by-word. This is due to the rules for subtitles regarding their length and how long they are allowed to remain on-screen. Because of the information that is left out, the translations can sometimes be inaccurate. Subtitles also often ignore other aspects of a film, such as symbolic details in the visuals as well as in the choice of certain words over others. In order to try to prevent the loss of these details, this article explores a way of translating films through examining and analysing the signs and symbols that are represented in the film, especially in the dialogue. This method was applied to the popular Japanese animated film Spirited Away (2001), and subtitles created according to it were compared with the subtitles that are available on a DVD of the film. The comparison shows that it is possible to explain more of the missing information by translating with a focus on the symbols used in the film instead of trying to rely only on a straightforward translation of the dialogue.

Exoskeleton for Knee Arthritis Patients
Authors: Kumar Mahatwa , Bowal Kimberly
Published: March 2022

Nearly 23 percent of the US adult population suffers from arthritis and patients of knee arthritis find it extremely painful to sit down or stand from a sitting position. In this research paper I have endeavoured to design a total knee support exoskeleton to assist people suffering from knee arthritis. High torque DC and servo motors were used in the model which can be controlled using a Bluetooth remote control or app. The choice of motors was based on the torque that is borne by the knee when the leg or thigh move. The model lends support to both the thigh and the lower leg and helps in motion of sitting, standing and lying down. The present model has been developed keeping in mind considerations of portability, affordability and commercial viability. The model has been conceptualized after making calculations on torque about the knee, and successfully reduces the metabolic cost of moving the leg or thigh. This exoskeleton will assist a wide population being lightweight, portable, and affordable and uses electrical parts to maximize the reduction in torque.
Current Level of Public Awareness of Antibiotic Resistance in Youth, Specifically Teenagers in High School
Authors: Muir Emma , Tetmeyer Kim
Published: March 2022

Antibiotic resistance is a health crisis that is slowly growing throughout the world. The spread of antibiotic-resistant genes in bacteria is rendering antibiotics useless, and severe infections are running rampant. The only way to change this is for the public to take action, but how much do they know? Previous research has been conducted about the public’s knowledge of antibiotic resistance, but younger age groups are generally left out of that data. This leads to the question what is the current level of public awareness of antibiotic resistance in youth, specifically teens in high school. I hypothesized that a large number of students won’t know what antibiotic resistance is at all, and those who do know don’t fully understand what it means. To test this hypothesis, an online survey was distributed to students from a rural southeastern Michigan high school via email and homeroom classes. From the survey, results showed that students don’t understand what causes antibiotic resistance, what becomes resistant to antibiotics, and what antibiotics treat. With data from the survey, I concluded that High school students have a low to moderate level of understanding of antibiotic resistance and related topics.

Published: March 2022

O saber matemático existe pelo menos há cinco mil anos e o livro impresso existe pouco mais de quinhentos anos. Ao longo de história, o homem sempre foi fascinado por números e várias civilizações deixaram seu legado à Teoria dos Números. Os registros da história da Matemática nos proporcionam uma viagem no tempo, no percorrer dos passos de como os conceitos matemáticos, suas propriedades e métodos foram criados nos registros nas academias e nos jornais científicos bem como por meio de cartas entre seus pares. O presente trabalho traz a conjunção entre a ciclotomia (divisão de uma circunferência em partes iguais) e sua relação com os números complexos à luz da istória da Matemática e à teoria algébrica de equações que nos ajuda a entender que as ciências devem ser estudadas não pelo seu caráter prático, mas para estimular e fortificar o espírito de invenção no intuito de uma instrução intelectual sólida.

Published: March 2022

A final good bye during disease or pandemics are even more distressing as they defy the concepts of an ideal death or perfect death. Family members may not have the opportunity to achieve closure by resolving unfinished business. The pain and guilt of not physically seeing or being with their loved ones during their suffering exacerbates the grief. Furthermore, a lack of social recognition with impaired support system along with the absence of last rites results in a state of disenfranchised grief. This is likely to result in a prolonged grief disorder, a condition which imperils the physical and psychological well-being of an individual. Irrespective of race, religion or culture death is almost universally followed by a funeral service or ritual. Across the globe, communities have developed these rites to enable individuals and families cope and deal with the loss of their loved one. The way in which individuals react to the death of a loved one varies across cultures. The coping mechanisms to this grief however, remain remarkably constant. A funeral ritual allows for a culturally accepted expression of emotions, emphasizing the irreversibility of death. It also initiates the recovery processes of continuity, transition and transformation. Lack of familiarity with cultural and religious practices on the part of personnel involved in dead body management can have serious consequences for the society. This article will aid in understanding the different perspective on management of the dead, and how last rites might be adapted to minimize the possible risk of further infection in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic. The current experience throughout the world has shown the vulnerability of health-care systems is a disaster with mass casualties. Handling the dead without hampering the dignity of the deceased and of the surviving family has become a challenge for all. Before any crisis overwhelms responders and resources, emergency response plans should be established and activated to ensure the reliable identification and documentation of the dead. The current review was carried out to recommend the proper management of dead bodies in the COVID-19 mass disaster with a particular focus on resource-poor countries, such as India.

India uses electromechanical electricity meters, but considers the drawbacks of electricity theft, meter reading errors, billing, and consumers hesitating to pay utility bills on time. Therefore, such systems are being replaced by more sophisticated and accurate digital and electronic gauges. This paper proposes a new methodology for implementing a control-based global system for mobile communication networks (GSMs) to integrate prepaid metering system setup and remote load control. This provides a secure smart card solution for new types of prepaid power systems. It aims to reduce the number of utility bill obstacles using smart card technology. The LCD display is used to show the amount of energy consumed. Users can replenish the counter as needed by sending an SMS to the server. Users must make the first replenishment to address the issue of unpaid invoices and human error in invoices. This ultimately guarantees a legitimate return.

Published: March 2022

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the training and readiness levels of Collegiate Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers to respond to mass casualty incidents (MCIs).Methods: An anonymous cross-sectional survey of Collegiate EMS providers was performed.Participants: Participants were US-based EMS providers affiliated with the National CollegiateEmergency Medical Services Foundation.Outcome measures: The main outcome measures were levels of EMS experience and MCI training, subjective readiness levels for responding to various MCI scenarios, and analyzing the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on MCI response capabilities.Results: Respondents had a median age of 21 years (interquartile range IQR 20, 22), with 86 percent (n = 96/112) being trained to the Emergency Medical Technician-Basic level. Providers reported participating in an average of 1.6 MCI trainings over the last four years (IQR, 1.0, 2.2). Subjective MCI response readiness levels were highest with active assailant attacks followed by large event evacuations, natural disasters, hazardous material (HAZMAT) incidents, targeted automobile ramming attacks, explosions, and finally bioweapons release. Disparate to this, only 18 percent of participants reported training in the fundamentals of tactical and disaster medicine. With respect to the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on MCI readiness, 27 percent of respondents reported being less prepared, and there was a statistically significant decrease in subjective readiness to respond to HAZMAT incidents.Conclusion: Given low rates of MCI training but high rates of self-assessed MCI preparedness, respondents may overestimate their readiness to adequately respond to the complexity of a real-world MCI. More objective assessment measures are needed to evaluate provider preparedness.
AI (artificial intelligence)-assisted planning within emergency management operations
Authors: Adams, BS James , Hasan, PhD, MS, MEng Mahmud , Thorp, BS Jacob
Published: March 2022

There is a demand for future technologies to be embedded within emergency management operations. Artificial intelligence (AI) can help save lives and create more efficient systems for emergency management operators to prepare, design, develop, and execute responses to disasters and catastrophes. This study intends to provide insight into how AI can integrate with climate modeling and traffic management systems in response to natural disasters. Research with supporting evidence implies that current technology and frameworks can coexist inside the existing infrastructure and emergency management operations. A growing population with an increase in anthropogenic emissions and the inability to predict future disasters and catastrophes suggests that AI can help address these challenges.

To evaluate differences in diffusion imaging parameters, including fractional anisotropy (FA) and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), in control and diabetic subjects, and to assess changes in these parameters to patient’s urine albumin/protein levels, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c).

Material and methods

This is a cross-sectional analytical study involving 100 patients who underwent diffusion imaging including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of the kidneys in our hospital from 2019 to 2020. Diffusion imaging parameters (ADC and FA) were obtained from the medulla and cortex of both kidneys using dedicated software. Statistical analysis was done.

Results

Out of 100 subjects, 27 were controls and 73 were diabetics (19 normoalbuminuric, 23 microalbuminuric, and 31 proteinuric). The medullary FA (0.419 ± 0.024 vs. 0.346 ± 0.042), cortical FA (0.194 ± 0.035 vs. 0.303 ± 0.067), and cortical ADC (3.307 ± 0.341 vs. 2.309 ± 0.515) values showed significant differences between controls and diabetics. Medullary FA and cortical ADC values showed a decreasing trend with an increasing amount of albumin/protein in the urine, decreasing renal function (reducing eGFR), and increasing HbA1c, whereas the trend was opposite for cortical FA. In addition, on ROC curve analysis a cut-off value for medullary FA of 0.4 had a sensitivity of 64% and specificity of 80.95% to differentiate healthy volunteers and diabetics with normo-albuminuria.

Conclusions

DTI has the potential to be a promising non-invasive test for the detection of early renal parenchymal changes in diabetic nephropathy.

The importance to get a correct measurement of all variables involved in different metrological processes, takes major importance every day. In order to improve the uncertainty of some processes in metrology of density, the compressibility of the liquids arises as the new important one in the uncertainty budget. In density measurements different variables like the properties of the liquids are involved (density, viscosity, compressibility coefficient, and surface tension), especially for the reference materials used for the calibration of hydrometers [8], and their characterization in density (density calibration) or in measurements of density in process were the flow is handled a high pressure. The compressibility appears in those methods at high accuracy were a solid body is immersed into a liquid so there are pressure differences due to height differences. This method is usually known as hydrostatic weighing. In the present work the assemble of one new system based in the measurement of the density of liquids by one vibrant tube density meter with different pressures and the results with different liquids are presented.

Abstract. Visibility data are fundamental meteorological data widely used in many fields such as climate change, atmospheric radiation, atmospheric pollution, and environmental health. Calculating the average visibility is typically the first step when using visibility data. However, this study proves that the algorithm previously used to calculate average visibility is incorrect, leading to a non-negligible error in average visibility data. Moreover, the use of this incorrect algorithm not only artificially reduces the reliability of visibility data, but also affects the credibility and even the correctness of the conclusions reached in previous studies using visibility data. Therefore, we present the correct algorithm for average visibility, which should be applied to both future and previous research to significantly increase the reliability and application scope of visibility data.
