Published: May 2024

The problem of plastic waste is profound in every country in the world. This is because plastic is the most widely produced material and is difficult to degrade in the environment. Indonesia and Malaysia are countries that have serious plastic waste problems. Indonesia and Malaysia are the top five countries producing plastic waste in Southeast Asia (Arumdani, Puspita, & Budiharjo, 2021). This is what the Indonesian and Malaysian governments are concentrating on to resolve environmental pollution due to the ever-increasing volume of plastic waste. This journal uses a comparative study to compare the efforts of Indonesia and Malaysia in dealing with the plastic waste problem. To solve the plastic waste problem, the Indonesian government has established several regulations and programs to meet the SDGs targets. The Malaysian government also implemented regulations and behavioural changes to reduce plastic waste, which aligns with the Basel Convention, which regulates hazardous wastes, including plastic waste. Facing almost similar problems, Indonesia and Malaysia continue to strive to solve the plastic waste problem by following the priorities and targets of their respective countries.

Heat transfer study of 3D packaging structure with superconducting TSV for practical-scale quantum annealing machines
Authors: Feng Wei , Kikuchi Katsuya
Published: May 2024

To avoid the interconnect crowding in a planar structure, three-dimensional (3D) integrated technologies are necessary for realizing practical large-scale quantum annealing (QA) machines. We studied the heat transfer of a 3D packaging structure with superconducting through-silicon via for large-scale QA machines by finite element method simulation. The heat transfer becomes less efficient in the stacked structure. A high temperature of 57.0 mK is observed for the qubit chip, which degrades the quantum coherence of the qubit chip. We propose a heat transfer optimization method by increasing the number of bumps under the active interposer. Furthermore, by shortening the distance to the heat sink, the maximum temperature of the qubit chip is reduced to 18.1 mK. Our proposed heat transfer optimization methods are useful to provide a cryogenic temperature for stable qubit chip operation in a 3D packaging structure to realize practical-scale superconducting QA machines.

NOVEL METHOD OF “SANTOSH-PGI STAPLER-NEPHRECTOMY WITH TRANEXAMIC ACID & NORADRENALINE” IN RENAL CELL CARCINOMA WITH SUPRADIAPHRAGMATIC INFERIOR VENA CAVA TUMOUR THROMBUS FOR DECREASING OPERATIVE TIMES & BLOOD LOSS
Authors: Kumar Santosh , Deshpande Rohit Sanjay , Singh Shanky , S Sivakumar
Published: May 2024

Radical resection of renal cell carcinoma with renal vein & supradiaphragmatic inferior vena cava thrombosis, is often associated with signicant
amount of blood loss during the surgery, owing to the dense peri-renal reactive adhesions, altered hilar anatomy & parasitic/collateral vessels from
the surface of kidney to colon and retrohepatic area & retroperitoneum. It is standard practice to proceed with nephrectomy initially, followed by
retrieval of the thrombus; however, the opposite can also be performed. Invariably, surgery in these cases is associated with signicant blood loss,
mainly due to the extensive network of peri-nephric collateral vessels. Hence, adequate preoperative patient preparedness is the norm. In this case
series, we aim to highlight a novel method of decreasing the intra-operative time & blood loss associated with nephrectomy, during radical
resection of renal tumours associated with tumour thrombus which eventually led to decreased intra-operative blood loss and operative times.

Published: May 2024

Conventional Fourier modal methods (FMMs) remain computationally intensive for simulating and inversely designing free-form meta-atoms. This work introduces a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based method for generating normal vector (NV) fields to improve FMMs’ convergence. Our proposed models predict NV fields from free-form shapes with high accuracy and reduced computational demand. Theoretical analysis and experimental validation using the rigorous diffraction interface theory (R-DIT) demonstrate equivalent accuracy with significant speed improvement, particularly up to 3x speedup on GPU platforms, utilizing only minimal convolutional layers. This integration of machine learning with traditional simulation techniques illustrates the potential for pioneering advanced tools in photonics de

Territorial increase of Ukraine at the beginning of World War ІІ in the journal of the USSR (1939—1941)
Authors: Doіar Larysa
Published: May 2024

The presented article was prepared within the framework of the implementation of the annual plan of scientific work of the State Printing Archive of the Book Chamber of Ukraine: in the current year 2024, we are researching domestic prints of 1940, that is, the period of the Second World War and the post-war reconstruction of the Ukrainian SSR. Establishing the thematic and substantive priorities of the periodicals of the time, the author focused attention on such a defining aspect of national state-building as the territorial expansion of Soviet Ukraine at the initial stage of the Second World War. The article examines the problem of Western Ukrainian lands becoming part of the Ukrainian SSR, in particular, Eastern Galicia and Northern Bukovyna. The premise of the event was a bilateral conspiracy between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union regarding the division of Europe into spheres of influence. The Soviet-German treaty of September 28, 1939 became a documentary post-factum confirmation of the event. A feature of the territorial changes of the Ukrainian SSR at that time was the inclusion of lands that, according to the Soviet-Polish treaty of August 16, 1945, Soviet Ukraine lost. We are talking about Nadsiany, Kholm region, Podlasie and Lemkiv region, which in 1939 entered the Ukrainian SSR, and in 1945 became part of the Polish People's Republic. The source base of the presented intelligence was made up of domestic periodicals, namely: the republican magazine "Red cross" for 1939 and the regional literary and artistic almanac "Vilna Bukovyna" for 1940—1941, which tell about the crossing by the Red Army of the Polish-Soviet and the Romanian-Soviet state borders and the events that resulted from it. The purpose of this investigation was to process the mentioned press releases by the method of content analysis.

Published: May 2024

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is frequent after kidney transplantation, typically occurring within the first 100 days post-transplant. This prospective, multicenter study aimed to estimate the frequency of CMV disease beyond 100 days post-transplant and demonstrate the usefulness of virological diagnosis during this period. Of 48 kidney transplant recipients with suspected CMV disease, 17% had positive CMV viremia, and 6% had confirmed CMV disease. The 3 cases of CMV disease presented with high viral loads, viral syndrome associated with tissue-invasive disease. For the 45 patients without confirmed disease, virological diagnosis allowed the identification of other etiologies, mainly infectious or iatrogenic. Although infrequent beyond 100 days, CMV disease can occur and be severe, justifying virological screening in the presence of suggestive signs. Differential diagnosis with other causes remains paramount.

Published: May 2024

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, its incidence is increasing but mortality has decreased in a huge way due to the growth of various cancer treatments. Patients with a contraindication for trastuzumab, an incomplete cardiographic echo record, and patients with already heart disease were excluded from the history. The means of cardiac monitoring was cardiac ultrasound or isotopic ventriculography, the toxicity criteria were those of the New York Heart Association (NYHA), a detailed operating sheet was made for each of our patients. The main objective of our study was to assess the incidence of cardiotoxicity in patients treated for breast cancer HER 2 3+ by trastuzumab.06% of our patients had had trastuzumab cardiotoxicity (i.e. 3 cases); two patients had an asymptomatic decrease in reversible LVEF and one patient had clinically significant heart failure requiring appropriate treatment for ICS and permanent discontinuation of trastuzumab. The protocols of targeted therapy with trastuzumab are an essential progress in oncology and cardiac toxicity is the major limiting factor for its use. Our work focuses on a retrospective study, conducted at the Department of Oncology and the Hospital Ahmida Ben adjila discussing cardiotoxicity of tarstuzumab in 50 patients with breast cancer HER2 3+ collected from january 2014 to december 2019.we have included in this study all patient with breast cancer overexpressing HER2 3+ treated by trastuzumab with an initial heart function and preserved LVEF ≥5 5%. We excluded patients contre to trastuzumab, incomplete echocardiographic folder, patients who received neoadjuvant trastuzumab and patients with metastatic breast cancer. Cardiotoxicity with trastuzumab is not common enough in our series but it does exist, which requires several careful preventive measures including monitoring by echocardiography.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: A state of malnutrition is so commonly associated with tumor disease that it is often considered an integral part of the evolution of cancers. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective monocentric study carried out in the Medical Oncology department of the PHE of Laghouat. Patients with cancer and followed in this service between October 4, 2020 and November 26, 2020 have been included. The main objective was to study the impact of chemotherapy on the nutritional status of cancer patients by assessing the nutritional status and quantifying its anthropometric and biological parameters. Malnutrition is defined as weight loss > 5% in one month or > 10% in six months and/or body mass index ≤ 18,5 kg/m² and/or albuminemia 30 g/L in adult patients aged < 70 and by weight loss 5% in one month or 10% in six months and/or body mass index ≤ 21 kg/m² and/or albuminemia 35 g/L in patients aged ≥70. Results: This study included 123 patients with a sex ratio of 0.6 and an average age of 51.81±14.33 years who were sectioned into 2 groups: undernutrition with a weight loss greater than 5% of usual weight and or BMI 18, 5kg/m² and or albuminemia 30g/L (in 70-year-old patients) and or BMI21 kg/m² and or albuminemia 35g/L (in 70-year-old patients) (n=16, 13%) and those without malnutrition (n=107, 87%). Men accounted for 34.6% of the not undernourished population and 56.3% of the malnourished population. The weight change in the undernourished group was on average -1.12%±5.4 with 30.1% of undernourished people have PDP>5% and 81.26% were on chemotherapy. The mean BMI of the undernourished population is 18.63kg/m² 3.98 and the mean albumin is 35.65 3.68 g/L in the undernourished population. Discussion and Conclusion: The undernutrition of cancer patients is common and associated with less benefit from chemotherapy and a derogatory prognosis.
Intestinal Microbiota and Alcohol Addiction
Authors: Khelifa R. , Rabhia M.
Published: May 2024

The involvement of the gut microbiota in various diseases, including psychiatric disorders, is increasingly being studied. We present here a review of recent data regarding the potential role of the microbiota in the development and maintenance of alcohol addiction. Changes in the composition and function of the gut microbiota have been observed in alcoholic patients. Several pathophysiological mechanisms explain the involvement of the microbiota in this addiction, including through the intestinal immune system, the production of psychoactive bacterial metabolites, or the alteration of intestinal permeability. Modulation of the microbiota through nutritional or pharmaceutical interventions is thus a promising therapeutic avenue for the management of alcoholism.

Authors: Kamel Hassan Fahim , Ali Ghada Basil
Published: May 2024

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are considered one of the most common infectious diseases, affecting most people of all age. Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the types of common bacteria causing UTIs and to measure the sensitivity of antibiotics to different bacteria. Materials and Methods: The current study included 208 of young group patients (aged 18 - 50 years) clinically suspected of having a UTIs. Out of 208 samples, the culture results showed that only 100 samples were positive for the presence of significant bacteria. Samples (midstream urine) were collected in a sterile tube, and significant results were shown for the isolated bacteria on selective media, identified by the VITEK-2 system. Then the Kirby-Bauer method was used to perform antibiotic susceptibility testing according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines. Results: The most common bacteria identified included; Escherichia coli (68.3%), Staphylococcus aureus (7.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (6.7%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (5.8%), (3.8%) for both Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus saprophyticus, While Streptococcus agalactiae accounted for (1.9%), Proteus mirabillus and Serratia marcescens (0.9%) for all of them. Moreover, there was mixed bacterial growth. Results revealed E. coli was sensitive to Imipenem, Ciprofloxacin and resistant to Tobramycin and Amikacin. Meanwhile, K. pneumoniae was completely sensitive to Imipenem and Ciprofloxacin with utterly resistant to Piperacillin. P. aeruginosae was sensitive to Imipenem, Meropenem and resistant to Azithromycin, Tobramycin, Ceftriaxone and levofloxacin. Whereas, S.aureus was sensitive to Ciprofloxacin and Levofloxacin and resistant to Trimethoprim and Azithromycin, E. faecalis was sensitive to Vancomycin with resistant to Azithromycin and Ciprofloxacin. Conclusions: The study concluded that females are more susceptible to UTIs than to males. In addition, females with UTIs tend to be younger than males. E. coli is the most common isolate among bacteria that cause UTIs. Study revealed that Imipenem remains the most potent treatment for inhibiting most types of bacteria causing UTIs, in addition, Meropenem, Ciprofloxacin, and Levofloxacin can be considered a potential treatment option.

Authors: Dupuis Constance , Sethi Bharati , Williams Allison
Published: May 2024

Introduction:Unpaid caregiving plays a crucial role in supporting older adults, requiring innovative approaches to understand and enhance caregivers' experiences. Research Objectives: As a response, this scoping review investigates the application of arts-based methods in understanding the caregiving experience, as well as the advantages and limitations of these methods in providing care to diverse populations. Methodology: Building on Arksey and O’Malley's framework, our methodology draws from the Joanna Briggs Institute approach. Eligibility criteria encompassed peer-reviewed publications in English from 2007 to 2022, focusing on unpaid caregivers, arts-based methods, and caregiving experiences. Six comprehensive databases were queried, with the initial searches yielding 761 articles. Full text screening of 66 papers resulted in 19 papers for inclusion in the scoping review. Results: Analysis of the literature revealed the multifaceted applications of arts-based methods in understanding and supporting unpaid caregivers. These encompassed a wide range of creative techniques, such as visual arts, photo elicitation, storytelling, and performance – which provided insights into the emotional, psychological, and social dimensions of caregiving. Findings highlighted the potential for arts-based methods to enhance caregiver well-being, foster self-reflection and self-care, and promote dialogue. Nonetheless, there were notable gaps. Racial and ethnic diversity was often neglected in the studies (addressed in 3 of 19), underscoring the necessity for tailored interventions and methodological considerations for diverse populations. Importantly, dementia caregiving received substantial attention (12 of 19). Final Considerations: This scoping review highlights the growing interest in integrating arts-based methods into caregiving research and interventions amongst qualitative and mixed methods approaches. By mapping out the landscape of existing literature, this review underscores the need for further exploration and methodological refinement to harness the full potential of creative techniques in advancing our understanding of unpaid caregivers' lived experiences. Arts-based approaches hold promise in providing a nuanced and holistic perspective on unpaid caregiving experiences.

Trata o presente artigo da análise do crime organizado, sua forma de atuação, formação e consequência direta para vida em sociedade, bem como da atuação do Ministério Público no combate à criminalidade organizada, sendo apresentados suas limitações, campo de alcance e estrutura, repercutindo na efetivação de direitos fundamentais, sobretudo aos menos favorecidos, proporcionando maior acesso à educação, saúde, segurança, transporte, cultura, entre outros. Fez-se uso da pesquisa aplicada, com âmbito qualitativo, buscando a compreensão de um fenômeno e, no que se refere às técnicas, foi feita a análise de documentação indireta, abrangendo a pesquisa documental e bibliográfica, com o estudo de caso envolvendo a matéria, além de dispositivos e normas legais. Inicialmente, apresentam-se o conceito, as características e o tratamento dado pelo ordenamento jurídico ao crime organizado, em sequência é exposta uma das principais classificações doutrinárias que diferenciam os atores dos ilícitos. A atuação do órgão ministerial é apresentada no tópico seguinte, em que são expostas suas limitações, organização e formas de atuação. Em seguida, o terceiro tópico  versa sobre os direitos fundamentais, conceito, classificação e previsão legal, seguido pela repercussão direta que a repressão às organizações criminosas causa na efetivação dos direitos fundamentais, tendo enfoque específico na atuação do Parquet. Conclui-se que não basta a criação ou o endurecimento de tipos penais, se os crimes já existentes não são combatidos de forma eficaz. Sabe-se que a criminalidade organizada está há anos luz dos órgãos de fiscalização e investigação, entretanto cabe ao Estado equipar quem a combate e adotar medidas.
A atuação do Ministério Público nos casos de ação de improbidade administrativa por enriquecimento ilícito: análise da alteração do entendimento do papel da instituição no Art. 9º, VII, da Lei de Improbidade Administrativa
Authors: Tunes Ana Carolina Lima , Da Cunha Gomes Arêba Amanda da Cunha Gomes
Published: May 2024

A atualização da Lei de Improbidade Administrativa (Lei 14.230/21) trouxe novos elementos em prol dos agentes públicos envolvidos, já que, em sua maioria, especificou as condutas exigidas para a caracterização do ato de improbidade. No mesmo sentido, possibilitou maior segurança ao Ministério Público, instituição competente para acusar judicialmente os sujeitos ativos, quando detalhou o procedimento a ser empregado. Contudo, a atualização gerou divergência de entendimento quanto ao art. 9º, inciso VII, da Lei, ao estabelecer inteiramente o ônus de prova do Ministério Público. Posto isso, no presente artigo, analisar-se-á a possibilidade de inversão desse ônus probatório em favor da instituição, considerando seus princípios, objetivos e atribuições que visam um bem maior: a ordem jurídica do Estado.
A tutela constitucional do meio ambiente por parte do Ministério Público à luz das particularidades e contradições do Estado brasileiro
Authors: Palar Juliana Vargas , Granato Leonardo
Published: May 2024

A Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 consagra visibilidade à matéria ambiental e à atuação do Ministério Público nesse campo. Esses elementos guardam relação entre si e emergem de um mesmo contexto histórico. Contudo, o manejo da natureza e a constituição do Ministério Público também são perpassados pelas características e contradições que assolam o Estado brasileiro. Por isso, o presente trabalho busca compreender, com base nas particularidades e contradições do Estado brasileiro, a atribuição constitucional da defesa do meio ambiente ao Ministério Público. Para tanto, é utilizado o método materialista histórico-dialético, o método de procedimento histórico e a técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica. Além disso, será feita uma análise de um caso específico com o fito de que, por meio da referida análise, sejam vislumbradas as considerações teóricas aqui propostas.
Considerações sobre a impossibilidade jurídica da acareação de crianças e adolescentes vítimas ou testemunhas de violência
Authors: Oliveira Heitor Moreira de , Dias Paulo Cezar
Published: May 2024

O presente estudo dialoga com o artigo publicado na 9ª edição da Revista do CNMP, que versou sobre a impossibilidade da condução coercitiva de criança e adolescente, vítima ou testemunha de violência, no processo penal brasileiro. Na mesma trilha, objetiva-se demonstrar que, à luz do sistema de garantia de direitos da criança e do adolescente vítima ou testemunha de violência e dos comandos da Lei nº 13.431/2017, notadamente os artigos 9º e 12, § 3º, a par de não ser possível a condução coercitiva, igualmente também  não se admite a acareação com o suposto agressor, sob pena de se caracterizar  inaceitável revitimização advinda de odiosa violência institucional. Emprega-se o método hipotético-dedutivo e, ao final, conclui-se que a impossibilidade de acareação é mais uma regra de adaptação procedimental que permite o exercício do direito de participação de crianças e adolescentes, mas as coloca a salvo de sofrimento no curso do processo
Prueba indiciaria: reina de las pruebas en el combate contra corrupción
Authors: Santos Leonardo Augusto de A. Cezar dos
Published: May 2024

La corrupción es una enfermedad en la sociedad moderna y la lucha contra ella es uno de los más importantes retos. Hay efectos de los actos corruptos en la economía, en la protección de los derechos fundamentales y en la credibilidad de las instituciones. Los actos corruptos, habitualmente, suelen ser cometidos con total discreción, de manera que las dos partes corruptas intentan ocultar sus acciones. La dificultad en probar los actos corruptos es resultado de una búsqueda imposible de la verdad, por la reconstrucción histórica de los hechos. Aunque hoy la doctrina moderna entienda que la prueba debe convencer al juez, hay todavía quienes creen que él debe ser un historiador. Con ésta visión anacrónica de la función de la prueba, la impunidad crece. En éste escenario, la prueba indiciaria, a día de hoy, se ha convertido en la reina de las pruebas en la lucha contra la corrupción.
O papel do Ministério Público no controle concreto de constitucionalidade no Brasil e em Portugal
Authors: Aziz Mona Lisa Duarte
Published: May 2024

O Ministério Público brasileiro e o português são autônomos e multifacetados. No caso brasileiro, houve perda de representação do Estado e expansão de suas funções a partir da Constituição de 1988. No caso português, permaneceu o órgão como advogado do Estado e atuando primordialmente na área penal. Os distintos perfis refletem na atuação da instituição perante a justiça constitucional de cada país. No âmbito do controle concreto, o foco do Ministério Público brasileiro é a defesa do interesse público primário identificado pela proteção dos direitossubjetivos, difusos ou coletivos em causa. Diversamente, a atuação do Ministério Público português destina-se à defesa da legalidade objetiva e está vinculada a recursos obrigatórios. Por meio de revisão bibliográfica, o presente trabalho analisa ambos os modelos sob perspectiva comparada, visando a definir qual modalidade de atuação é mais condizente com o papel da jurisdição constitucional.
Saúde e meio ambiente urbano: direito à infraestrutura urbana como pressuposto do direito à saúde
Authors: Ribeiro de Oliveira Giselle
Published: May 2024

O processo de urbanização traz consigo enormes repercussões no meio ambiente urbano e, consequentemente, na saúde da população. Muitas doenças são diretamente relacionadas à ausência de saneamento ambiental e, mais especificamente, de infraestrutura urbana, de forma que o investimento nessa área importa na diminuição do número de ocorrência de doenças e, em última análise, de gastos com saúde. Na história recente, vários entes internacionais reconhecem a inter-relação entre meio ambiente e saúde, o que tem repercutido nas políticas e legislação nacionais. Uma vez que é condição indispensável ao pleno exercício do direito à saúde, a garantia deste só se concretizará se garantido o fornecimento de infraestrutura básica aos cidadãos brasileiros.

Introduction: cervical degenerative myelopathy (DCM) is a general term that entails multiple etiologies. DCM is a group of pathological entities that originate compression of the cervical spinal cord, where spasticity, hyperreflexia, pathological reflexes, loss of manual dexterity, among others, are found.
Objective: to detail the current information related to cervical degenerative myelopathy, epidemiology, clinical presentation, role of complementary examinations, pathophysiology, pathogenesis and treatment.
Methodology: a total of 32 articles were analyzed in this review, including review and original articles, as well as clinical cases, of which 21 bibliographies were used because the other articles were not relevant to this study. The sources of information were PubMed, Google Scholar and Cochrane; the terms used to search for information in Spanish, Portuguese and English were: cervical degenerative myelopathy, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, cervical pain, ossification of the yellow ligament and degenerative disc disease.
Results: cervical myelopathy occurs in almost all individuals with canal stenosis greater than 60%. Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disorder that influences remarkable neurological morbidity and significant wear and tear on quality of life. The incidence and prevalence of SCI in North America is between 4.1 and 60.5 per 100,000, robust epidemiological data is difficult to obtain because of the multifactorial etiology of the disease process.
Conclusions: cervical degenerative myelopathy involves multiple etiologies, all these entities together represent the most common reason for degenerative and non-traumatic alteration of the spinal cord in adult individuals. Degenerative disorders are more common at C5 and C6 or C6 and C7, because of the increased mobility in these sections. It is difficult to obtain solid epidemiological data because of the multifactorial etiology of the disease process. The symptoms and signs presented by the pathology are varied, so an adequate physical examination and a good clinical history should be taken. The pathology can significantly alter neurological function and lead to disability, so early recognition and treatment can prevent further deterioration of affected individuals. Surgical decompression is almost universally indicated with the intention of preventing progression and achieving maximum recovery potential.
KEY WORDS: myelopathy, cervical, degenerative, pain, spinal, neuralgia.
