Published: August 2022

Background and aim

In the last two decades, the proportion of internet users has greatly increased worldwide. Data regarding internet addiction (IA) are lacking in Africa compared to other continents. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence of IA in African countries.

Methods

We systematically sought relevant articles in PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO and Cochrane database published before September 25, 2021. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute tool, and we estimated the pooled prevalence of IA using a random-effects meta-analytic model. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines.

Results

We included 22 studies (13,365 participants), and collected data from Egypt, Ethiopia, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania and Tunisia between 2013 and 2021. The mean age of participants ranged from 14.8 to 26.1 years, and the most used tool for IA screening was the Young's 20-item Internet Addiction Test. The pooled prevalence rate of IA was 40.3% (95% CI: 32.2%–48.7%), with substantial heterogeneity. The pooled prevalence for Northern Africa was 44.6% (95% CI: 32.9%–56.7%), significantly higher than the prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa, which was 31.0% (95% CI: 25.2%–37.1%). The risk of bias was moderate for most studies, the certainty was very low, and we found no publication bias.

Discussion and conclusions

Four in every ten individuals was considered to have IA in Africa. Further research with methodological optimization seems needed, especially for IA screening tools and the representativity of some subregions.

The relatively new and little-studied COVID-19 infection, or SARS-CoV-2, is a global public health emergency. Coronavirus infection was originally thought to primarily affect the respiratory system, but current research around the world has confirmed the virus's susceptibility to the cardiovascular system. It is known that SARS-CoV-2 is characterized by multiorgan damage, and cardiovascular damage is no exception. According to the study, problems with the cardiovascular system occur in about 20% of hospitalized patients with COVID-19, also describe the severe consequences of the cardiovascular system in the postpartum period. Pregnant women are no longer more likely to develop COVID-19, but if they become ill, they need care in the intensive care unit, oxygen support. Such pregnant women have an increased risk of complications due to coronavirus disease. Purpose - to present a clinical case of a woman who developed post-infectious myocarditis with pulmonary hypertension after COVID-19 infection, which was diagnosed during pregnancy and was considered as an indication for its termination. Clinical case. Pregnant at 20 weeks, complained of shortness of breath with light exercise, unmotivated fatigue, chest discomfort, pale skin. From the anamnesis it is known that two months before the planned pregnancy, the woman suffered from COVID-19 infection. During the examination in the department, laboratory and instrumental data made it possible to diagnose post-infectious myocarditis with pulmonary hypertension. Conclusions. Patients with coronavirus infection should be monitored by a physician for a significant period of time to diagnose possible complications in the long COVID period. This is especially true for women planning a pregnancy. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The informed consent of the patient was obtained for conducting the studies. No conflict of interest was declared by the authors. Key words: pregnancy, myocarditis, COVID-19 infection.

Published: August 2022

The Indian families are generally and probably the most diversified societies in the world. There are millions of houses in our country and the duty to complete household tasks is anonymously related to women in our country as performing housing duties are only intended to be borne by women only. This can leads to be having many work related injuries and musculoskeletal disorders which could be injuries in wrist, neck, back, shoulder and ankles or feet. Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is very common in both developed and developing countries with estimates of prevalence ranging from 11-60%. Musculoskeletal conditions affect more than 1.7 billion people worldwide and have the 4th greatest impact on the overall health of the world population, considering both death and disability. Ergonomic assessment of the housewives should be executed in order to understand the work related musculoskeletal disorder. Ergonomics is the theoretical and fundamental understanding of human behavior and performance in purposeful interacting socio-technical systems, and the application of that understanding to design of interactions in the context of real settings. It is an assessment of a people to ensure correct working postures and possible outrage and finding solutions to reduce a person’s exposure to physical hazards such as: Uncomfortable postures and repetitive tasks.

Drying is a simultaneous heat and mass transfer energy intensive operation, widely used as a food preservation technique. In view of improper postharvest methods, energy constraint and environmental impact of conventional drying methods, solar drying could be a practical, economical and environmentally reliable alternative. Open air solar drying method is used frequently to dry the agricultural products. But this method has some disadvantages. Therefore, to avoid disadvantages it is necessary to use the other solar drying methods. Different solar drying methods are direct solar drying, indirect solar drying and mixed mode solar drying. The device used for drying process with application of solar energy called the solar dryer. Solar dryer are also classified with mode of air circulation. In this paper, we studied the various modes of solar drying and classification of solar drying techniques.
Hemogram interpretation and diagnosis of blood parasites of Canines
Authors: Jeyabal L.
Published: August 2022

The organisms that live in the blood of their animal hosts are called as blood parasites and these parasites can range from single-celled protozoa to more complex bacteria and rickettsiae. The transmission varies, depending on the parasite, but often they are transmitted through the bites of ticks or flies. Various blood parasites such as Ehrlichia canis, Babesia canis, Hepatozoon canis and Trypanosoma evansi can cause serious thread in canines. The routine diagnosis in detection of various developmental stages of intracellular parasites with Romnowsky’s staining method would be a tough task of an expert parasitologist. Further, each blood parasite is associated with specific hematological variations and identification of these hematological alterations during routine laboratory screening of blood samples from dogs displaying clinical signs would be essential for diagnosing blood parasitic infections. This manuscript briefly defined various clinical cases of parasitic infections of canines with the aid of haemogram for the accurate diagnosis and differential diagnosis of canine blood parasitic diseases.
Effect of saline water on growth, yield, quality and soil properties in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Authors: Kaur Amandeep , Kaur Ramandeep
Published: August 2022

The opportunities for salinity research are enormous due to size and diversity of the country, where all kind of soils and waters of varying quality are encountered and require solutions. Salt accumulation leads to two major stresses for the plants: osmotic stress and ionic stress. The osmotic stress firstly comes in plants when salt concentrations increase outside the roots, which leads to reduction in water uptake and subsequently plant development. The ionic stress develops when Na+ accumulation increases in plants particularly in leaves over threshold level which causes chlorosis in leaves and reduced photosynthesis and other metabolic activities. Several researchers and eminent investigators observed that higher salt concentration takes place near or immediate below the soil surface which significantly impaired the growth parameters of barley. They observed negative effect of salinity on growth and the development of barley in comparison with control treatment. Lower level of salinity upto 3 dS/m did not significantly influence the seed germination, whereas higher salinity level significantly decreased seed germination, plant height and total dry matter production. Irrigation with higher salinity levels significantly decreased tillers plant-1, spikes plant-1, 1000-grain weight, grain yield, straw yield, harvest index and leaf K: Na as compared to control treatment. Higher levels of salinity increased the total soluble sugars but decreased the protein and oil contents as compared to under non-saline conditions. EC and SAR of soil was increased with increasing levels of salinity resulting into decreased, but there was a substantial decrease in soil pH, K: Na ratio, P uptake, K content in the grain and straw as well as available N, P and K in soil.

Published: August 2022

Medicinal plants produce various secondary metabolites are quite useful to us owing to their anti-microbial properties, presence of huge amounts of anti-oxidants, cytotoxic nature and various other medically significant properties. Medicinal plants therefore serve as raw materials for modern pharmaceutical medicines and several herbal medical supplements. Expansion and advancement of growing medicinal plants in large scale has flourished over the last few years. However, prolonged environmental changes have made medicinal plants susceptible to numerous abiotic stresses. On being exposed to abiotic stresses chiefly light (quality and quantity), extreme temperature conditions, water stress (drought or flooding), nutrients available, presence of heavy metals and salt content in soil, medicinal plants undergo several changes physiologically and their chemical composition also gets altered. To combat the effects of abiotic stress, a number of mechanisms at morphological, anatomical, biochemical and molecular levels are adapted by plants, which also include change in production of the secondary metabolites. However, plants cannot cope up with extreme events of stress and eventually die. Several strategies stress such as use of endophytes, chemical treatment and biotechnological methods have therefore been introduced to help the plants tolerate the period of. Moreover, nanobionics is also being developed as a new technology to help plants survive the stress conditions.

Evaluation of zero-stress temperature and cracking temperature of high performance concrete at early ages
Authors: Li Liang , Dabarera Arosha , Dao Vinh
Published: August 2022

Assessing the risk of cracking of high performance concrete induced by restrained volume changes from early ages is of considerable significance. To estimate and control such cracking risk of high performance concrete, two characteristic temperatures, namely zero-stress temperature (Tz) and cracking temperature (Tx) are crucial. In this study, the two temperatures are investigated in-depth by both theoretical analysis and experimental studies. For predicting the evolutions of Tz and Tx from early ages, rigorous yet practical models are proposed, which crucially take the visco-elastic behaviour of concrete into account. The reliability and predictive capability of the proposed models are demonstrated through a series of comparisons between the predicted and the measured results. Based on the predicted Tz and Tx profiles, practical thermal control criteria for preventing concrete from cracking caused by restrained strain are put forward. In principle, the actual temperature (T) of concrete should be kept higher than both Tz and Tx to properly maintain the stress induced by restrained strain in compression at early ages. If T becomes lower than Tz and reduces continuously, the lower the value of T, the higher the risk of cracking of concrete induced by restrained strain. As a consequence, once the value of T reaches or becomes lower than Tx, cracking is highly likely to occur. For a given actual temperature condition, lowering Tz and Tx can mitigate the risk of the cracking of concrete. Finally, effective measures for such lowering of Tz and Tx are also proposed.

Published: August 2022

Abstract —The study of fluid mechanics spans several engineering disciplines including Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace, Chemical, Environmental, Petroleum, and Biomedical Engineering. In all these disciplines, hydraulic loss calculations in pipes are extremely important. However, the iterative nature of the solution to these engineering problems makes it intricate and cumbersome to solve. Further, it gets very difficult to visualize the solutions to such iterative problems for a wide variety of cases. The current paper aims to bridge this gap by the creation of two open-source Excel-VBA based computational solvers. The first tool corresponds to the determination of the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor through the Colebrook Equation and its visualization on a Moody's chart, which can be effectively employed by engineering instructors as an active learning tool. Second, a complete tool covering all four kinds of pipe flow situations (including the iterative problems) has been developed. The developed computational tools were employed in an undergraduate Fluid Mechanics classroom and the detailed student responses were collected on ten aspects related to teaching and learning divided broadly under four categories – 'overall rating', 'student perceptions on self-learning', 'Improvement in teaching delivery', and 'recommendation for other courses'. The data collected from student responses were subjected to statistical analysis. The results of hypothesis testing and the p-value calculations clearly justify the immense usefulness of this tool in the improvement of the overall teaching-learning process of Fluid Mechanics. Finally, the developed computational tools are being hosted free on the web for the benefit of engineering instructors, learners and professionals alike.

Abstract: Outcome Based Education (OBE) is an approach in the field of engineering education, accepted in recent years all over the world. Output in terms of Cumulative Grade Points Average (CGPA), pass percentage, etc. has been the traditional measurement in education whereas outcome focuses on the level of transformation and achievement in the student. Every institution endeavours to fulfil its mission through its programs which constitute courses and learning activities. The program objectives guide to form the program outcomes, which need to align with universally accepted graduate attributes. These are mapped to the course outcomes whose knowledge levels can be guided by Blooms Taxonomy. Achievement of program objectives can be judged only through the attainment of program outcomes which are indicated by the attainment of the outcomes of the courses which constitute the program. Therefore, assessment tools and attainment methods for the course outcomes and program outcomes are required to indicate the level of transformation at each level. This paper presents a methodology to calculate the attainment of course outcomes and program outcomes and provides the recommended threshold values to identify the extent of desired transformation in a student after a teaching learning process. Awareness and implementation of these assessment methods with systematic review of thresholds and consequent course correction measures can have a profound impact on student success and mission accomplishments of institutions.

Abstract: This study aims to determine the use of experimental videos of hydraulic concepts (Pascal's law) of everyday products in the learning process for 10 students with special needs and 10 vocational school students. We used both quantitative and qualitative methods. Experimental videos were used in the learning process for supporting demonstration activities of hydraulic concepts using tools and materials from everyday products. Pretest and posttest were carried out to determine the level of understanding of students. The results showed that the level of understanding of students had increased after using experimental videos in the learning process. The use of experimental video learning media that is tailored to the needs of the students makes it easier for students to understand the material being taught. In addition, the use of tools and materials for everyday products makes it easier for students with special needs to understand the material being taught. This is because they find it easier to understand something concrete, simple, and repetitive or they often encounter it in their daily activities. The use of experimental videos can be used as an alternative learning media for students with special needs and students in general in vocational school during the pandemic.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of video learning on the coagulation process using a mango peel-based bio-coagulant on cement wastewater for vocational school students. The bio-coagulant fabrication is done by drying the mango peel in an oven at 60 degrees Celsius, mashing it in a blender, then uniforming the powder particle size using a 200 mesh sieve. The mango peel bio-coagulant powder was then applied to cement wastewater that had been conditioned to an acidic atmosphere with variations of 100, 150, 200, 250, and 300 mg/L. Cement wastewater was tested through pH, temperature, and total dissolved solids (TDS) tests before and after adding the bio-coagulant powder to determine the effect of the bio-coagulant application. This research was also conducted by providing pretest questions, learning videos, and posttest questions to vocational students. The results showed that giving bio-coagulants to cement wastewater could increase the pH value, had no effect on temperature changes, and could decrease the TDS value. Then, the learning outcomes for vocational students show that the use of video learning media has a low effect on students' understanding of the coagulation process.

Abstract: The target of the learning process must refer to the national curriculum. Since each student has different potential, different techniques must be applied, especially for students with special needs (SSNs) that require special services and education when learning difficult subjects. Heat transfer is one of the crucial materials in a vocational school. However, to achieve the curriculum objectives, SSNs have limitations. Therefore, this study aims to determine the heat transfer material for SSNs in the curriculum in vocational schools (i.e. culinary department). This research used the descriptive qualitative method (i.e., literature study, interviews, and observations). The results showed that the curriculum of heat transfer was taught in grade X in vocational schools since it must become the basis for students for learning other materials in the next grades. The curriculum of heat transfer for SSNs is the same as that for general students. The difference lies in how educational services are carried out. A differentiated curriculum is one of the solutions commonly used by teachers to teach SSNs in achieving students’ learning outcomes. The main prospects gained from this study are (1) to become references for practitioners, educators, and teachers to understand how to teach SSNs, (2) to give knowledge on determining the curriculum of difficult subjects for SSNs in vocational high schools, and (2) to know how Indonesian teachers solve the issue in the curriculum.

On the distribution of scope ambiguities in Polish
Authors: Abels Klaus , Grabska Dagmara
Published: August 2022

Polish, an SVO language with relatively free constituent order, has a scope extending mechanism of quantifier raising that shows remarkable similarities to quantifier raising in English. The paper shows experimentally that SVO and OVS structures in Polish are scopally ambiguous. Furthermore, ditransitive structures are scopally rigid when the indirect object precedes the direct object but ambiguous when the direct object precedes the indirect object (Łęska 2019), a fact which we show to hold independently of whether the indirect object is realized as a DP or a PP. The phrase structure of ditransitive VPs in Polish mirrors the geometry that Janke & Neeleman (2012) proposed for English ditransitives, though the category of the indirect object again plays no role. Pulling these findings together, we adapt Bruening’s (2001) analysis of scope freezing in English to our own analysis of Polish.Our findings contradict the idea that free word order languages lack quantifier raising and/or reconstruction for scope. The results are, however, fully compatible with multifactorial approaches to word order and scope.

El cielo a tiros y el debate de la sicaresca como género. Una lectura desde la estética de la recepción
Authors: Maya Franco Claudia María , Puerta Molina Andrés Alexander
Published: August 2022

Este artículo hace una lectura de la novela El cielo a tiros desde la perspectiva de la estética de la recepción (ER), con el fin de acercarse a dos puntos de vista antagónicos que suelen enunciarse en torno a las llamadas “narconovelas”: que el tratamiento literario del narcotráfico es siempre pornomiseria y utilitarismo o que da cuenta de un compromiso social por parte de los literatos. Este acercamiento implica abordar el debate sobre la sicaresca como género literario. Se concluye que ambos puntos de vista responden a horizontes de expectativas mediados por diferentes circunstancias espacio-temporales, así como sociales e históricas.
El peregrinar del maestro Feliciano Ríos y de Peralta por el cielo y el infierno, que con su ingenio picaresco derrotaron al Diablo y sometieron a Dios
Authors: Cancino Peña Juan Simón
Published: August 2022

Los cuentos “En la diestra de Dios Padre” de Carrasquilla y “Muerte y peregrinaciones ultraterrenas del maestro Feliciano Ríos” de Arango Villegas recogen aspectos picarescos, fantásticos y de la oralidad antioqueña. Lo fantástico tiene como referente a Todorov, pues cielo e infierno son el cronotopo de los relatos como escenarios ficcionales de la acción. Para la crítica en general el pícaro es un transgresor que, con la acción corrosiva de su discurso cuestiona a la Iglesia y sus valores. El artículo aporta una mirada sobre otras maneras de comprender el legado de la picaresca, poco frecuentes en la literatura colombiana.

Sin embargo, en aquellos que viven con VIH, y de acuerdo con su estado inmune, puede generar un síndrome de hiperinfección con complicaciones diversas por diseminación a diferentes órganos.

Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 30 años con diagnóstico de novo de infección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana, con documentación de enfermedad linfoproliferativa. En los estudios complementarios se documenta la presencia de Strongyloides stercoralis de manera inusual en la médula ósea. A pesar de contar con un recuento de linfocitos T CD4+ mayor a 400 células/mL y de haberse iniciado el manejo para esta condición con ivermectina, el paciente fallece por un estado séptico asociado al síndrome de hiperinfección, por lo cual se considera que este es un caso inusitado que obliga al clínico a tener en cuenta la presencia del nemátodo en pacientes que viven con VIH.

Background: Medicinal plants are part of traditional medicine and should be considered a therapeutic alternative for mental diseases. Several plants belonging to the Verbenaceae family have proved useful in treating general anxiety disorders, the most prevalent psychiatric disorders. Objective: This research aimed to verify the extract’s safety, the effect on general behavior, and the effect on sleeping time, as well as to evaluate the anxiolytic-like effect of the methanol extract of Aloysia virgata var. platyphylla (Avp), in mice. Methodology: The toxicity test was done according to the OECD guide (mice groups n=5), and general behavior was observed during the assay. Sleeping time was assessed using the pentobarbital-induced hypnosis method (n=8). Male Swiss albino mice (n=6) were treated with 50 to 400 mg/kg of Avp extract and diazepam as a control. The anxiolytic-like effect was tested through the hole board and elevated plus-maze test. Results: The Avp extract has no side effects in tested doses, and no central nervous system depressant activity was noted. A. virgata var. platyphylla increased exploration (number and time) in the hole board. In the elevated plus-maze, increased number and time into open arms were evidenced compared to the control group. Conclusion: With all these results, we concluded that the Avp extract is safe and has a potential anxiolytic-like activity in the animal model used.

Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’de antrenman, antrenörlük, antrenör eğitimi ve antrenman bilimi alanında meydana gelen gelişmeleri tarihsel, kavramsal ve yapısal yönlerden incelemektir. Antrenörlük ve antrenman biliminin gelişim süreci, 1932 öncesi, 1932-1974, 1974-1981, 1981-1992, 1992-2013 arası ve 2013 sonrası olarak altı evreye ayrılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada literatür taraması yöntemi kullanılmış, bu çerçevede ilgili dönemlere ilişkin literatür incelenmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. İlk üniversiter yapı olarak, beden eğitimi öğretmeni yetiştirmek için 1932’de kurulan Gazi Orta Muallim Mektebi ve Terbiye Enstitüsü, Beden Terbiyesi Şubesi ele alınmıştır. Antrenörlük ve antrenmanla ilgili ilk yasanın 1938 yılında çıktığı, 1974’te “Beden Eğitimi”nden “Spor Bilimi”ne geçildiği, 1981 yılında Yükseköğretim Kurulu”nun (YÖK) kurulması ile üniversitelerin yeniden yapılanması içerisinde yeni bir yaklaşımla “Beden Eğitimi ve Spor” adı ile kurumsallaşmaya gidildiği, bununla birlikte anabilim dalı anlayışı ve lisansüstü eğitime geçilebildiği görülmektedir. 1987’de ilk antrenör yönetmeliği ve antrenör eğitimi yasa ile belirlenmiş, üniversitelerin beden eğitimi ve spor bölümlerinden mezunların antrenörlük yapabilecekleri belirtilmiştir. Yüksekokullaşmanın 1992’de meydana geldiği, bununla birlikte diğer ülkelerdeki benzerleri gibi Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Öğretmenliği, Antrenörlük Eğitimi, Spor Yöneticiliği, Rekreasyon ve Spor Bilimleri bölümlerinin kurulduğu ve çok hızlı bir okullaşmanın olduğu görülmektedir. 2013 yılında da fakülteleşmenin başladığı ve 108 Spor Eğitimi veren üniversiteden 67’sininin Spor Bilimleri Fakültesi’ne dönüştüğü; 97 üniversitede antrenörlük eğitimi veren akademik birimler bulunduğu, 29 devlet üniversitesinde antrenör eğitiminde ikinci öğretim programı olduğu görülmektedir. 8 üniversitede “Egzersiz ve Spor Bilimleri” bölümü vardır ve bunların bir kısmı antrenör eğitimi vermektedir. Bir kısım üniversiteler uzaktan eğitim yapmalarına rağmen uygulama becerisi gerektiren antrenörlük eğitimini mezuniyette verdikleri, isimleri farklı olmakla birlikte aynı eğitimi veren bölümler olduğu, aynı bölüm ve programlar için bazı üniversitelerin merkezi yerleştirme, bazı üniversitelerin ise aynı zamanda özel yetenekle öğrenci aldıkları, bazı üniversitelerin lisansüstü eğitime de özel yetenekle öğrenci aldıkları görülmektedir. Bu alanda Türkiye’den hiçbir üniversitenin dünya sıralamasında ilk 120 üniversite içerisine giremediği görülmektedir.

Objective: The current study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of group counseling on quality of life and symptom severity among university students with Premenstrual Syndrome. Method: After filling in PSST and participating in SCID-CV, 120 students answered the demographic and WHOQOL questionnaires. Using classified random sampling, they were divided into control and intervention groups. The Intervention Group participants attended six group counseling sessions. They post-tested at two moments (immediate post-test and after one month). Results: The results of the immediate post-test indicated improvements in overall quality and in some domains (p<0.005) in the Intervention Group, and the second post-test showed an improvement in two of the domains (p<0.005). One month later, some symptoms were clearly improved in the Intervention Group (p<0.005). Conclusion: Group counseling improved the students' quality of life and severity of the Premenstrual Syndrome symptoms.

Objective: To know the perceptions of mothers of premature newborns hospitalized in the Neonatal Unit in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: Qualitative research carried out in June and July 2020, involving 12 mothers of premature newborns hospitalized in the neonatal units of a maternity hospital in the state of Ceará during the Coronavirus pandemic. Mothers were contacted via WhatsApp application. For the textual analysis, the descending hierarchical classification performed by the IRAMUTEQ software was used. Results: The mothers’ perception was centered on the difficulties faced in this pandemic period. The word “no” was strongly presented in the corpus of the text, evidencing the impact of the impediment of the visit, of the mothers’ permanence in the units and the fact of not being able to breastfeed. Conclusion: The provision of humanized care in neonatal units should not be limited to the newborn, and emotional support for mothers by the health team is essential.
