Authors: Ab Hamid Mohd Ramadan , Baderol Allam Fatimah Najihah , Buhari Siti Sabariah , Umar Muhammad
Published: April 2022

Patients' access to healthcare settings has been restricted to contain the spread of COVID-19, such as altering their health information-seeking behaviors, but this has not been documented among hypertensive patients. This study explored how patients obtain health information about hypertension during COVID-19. Face-to-face and online interviews were employed, and a semi-structured questionnaire was used to guide the interview. Two major themes emerged about the information sources: interpersonal and online. Patients seek health information from family members, healthcare professionals, friends, and online platforms. This study demonstrates that patients continue to seek health information during Pandemic COVID-19 to ensure that their hypertension remains under control.

Published: April 2022

One aspect that may contribute to the limited availability of donor organs is a lack of knowledge about the legalities of organ donation (OD). Using a randomized controlled trial (RCT), this study aims to identify the effect of health education programs on the level of knowledge and attitudes towards organ donation among nursing students. There were no significant differences in the knowledge and attitude level for both groups. However, the pamphlet group shows a positive correlation between the level of knowledge and attitude. The study revealed that pamphlets and videos have similar results in terms of educating OD.

Głoszenie kazań pasyjnych
Authors: Twardy Jan
Published: April 2022

Męka, śmierć i zmartwychwstanie Chrystusa tkwią w centrum historii zbawienia. Dlatego głoszenie kazań pasyjnych zajmuje istotne miejsce w kaznodziejstwie. Dowodzi tego Pismo Święte, a w nim ewangeliczne opisy męki Chrystusa i związane z nią inne teksty z Nowego i Starego Testamentu. W ciągu wieków głoszono orędzie męki Pańskiej, jednak ten typ kazań rozwinął się szczególnie w Polsce w XIX i XX wieku pod wpływem nabożeństwa gorzkich żali. Kazania te są ciągle aktualne. Ich źródła, czyli Pismo Święte oraz pozabiblijne treści teologiczne i antropologiczno-egzystencjalne, są obfite. Kerygmat męki Chrystusa i jego aktualizacja są główną treścią kazań pasyjnych. Orędzie męki Pańskiej jest nieodzownym źródłem kaznodziejskiej motywacji ujmowanej w aspekcie pozytywnym i negatywnym. Niewłaściwa jest jednostronna interpretacja alegoryczna, która przesłania autentyczne orędzie opisów męki Chrystusa oraz moralizatorskie wypaczanie ich sensu. Kazania pasyjne należy głosić językiem poprawnym i zrozumiałym, mówić tonem ciepłym, doniośle, i uwzględniać kontekst liturgiczny. Kompozycja tego rodzaju kazania powinna być logiczna i przejrzysta. Mękę Chrystusa przybliżamy w sposób kontemplacyjny, obrazowo i z zaangażowaniem uczuciowym. Istotne są zasady tworzenia serii kazań pasyjnych, pomocne będą ich liczne zbiory, w tym 41 serii tego rodzaju kazań, które opracowano w Wyższym Seminarium Duchownym w Przemyślu w latach 1983–2021. W drugiej części tej książki przybliżono pięć aspektów kerygmatyczno-aktualizacyjnych kazań pasyjnych. Chodzi najpierw o potrzebę głoszenia orędzia krzyża, znaku niewysłowionego cierpienia Chrystusa i dowodu Jego najszczególniejszej miłości do każdego człowieka. Ten znak zwycięstwa nad cierpieniem i śmiercią pobudza nas do naśladowania Chrystusa przez dźwiganie własnego krzyża w dążeniu do chwały zmartwychwstania. Dawniejsi i współcześni homileci polscy postulują również, aby w kazaniach pasyjnych ukazywać związek męki Chrystusa z Eucharystią, która jest uobecnieniem Jego najświętszej ofiary. Pismo Święte i historia kaznodziejstwa pasyjnego dowodzą, że głoszenie orędzia męki Pańskiej ściśle łączy się z wzywaniem słuchaczy do nawrócenia i pokuty. Kazania pasyjne służą m.in. przygotowywaniu wiernych do wielkopostnych rekolekcji parafialnych i spowiedzi wielkanocnej. Pierwowzorem udziału w męce Chrystusa jest Matka Bolesna, która w duchu najgłębszej wiary cierpiała razem z Nim, stała pod krzyżem i ogarniała miłością wszystkich ludzi. Ona też, jako Matka, ciągle wychowuje swoje dzieci, uczy je dźwigać krzyż i trwać przy Chrystusie obecnym w bliźnich. W głoszeniu kazań pasyjnych pomocna jest także wiedza o Całunie Turyńskim, który unaocznia starożytny rzymski sposób krzyżowania i niewysłowioną mękę Chrystusa. Wnikając w orędzie męki i śmierci Chrystusa, poznajemy istotę kazań pasyjnych i doceniamy potrzebę ich głoszenia. Należy troskliwie je przygotowywać, cenić, nie pomijać. W posłudze słowa jest miejsce zarówno na homilię, jak i na kazanie pasyjne – obydwie formy służą chwale Bożej i zbawieniu człowieka.

Authors: ARNANDA NINDI , RAMATILLAH DIANA LAILA
Published: April 2022

These cytokine storms are extremely dangerous. Cytokine storm is considered the reason for the high mortality rate of COVID 19 patients. An undetected reason causes a Cytokine storm in a patient, but this is associated with the characteristics of a person's immune system. Most COVID-19 patients recover with mild and moderate symptoms within one week; some develop severe pneumonia in the second week, followed by cytokine storm, ARDS, multiorgan failure, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) within the 3rd week. The high mortality rate in COVID-19 patients is most likely due to a cytokine storm in the patient's body. Cytokines are also immune system proteins that regulate interactions between cells and trigger immune reactivity, both in innate and adaptive immunity. To evaluate all treatments that can be used during the treatment of cytokine storm in COVID-19 patients based on clinical trials. Systematic Literature Review (SLR) about studies researching the treatment of cytokine strom in COVID-19 patients. Accumulated treatment was calculated using the confidence ratio for the random effects meta-analysis method of medium and high-quality data.

Based on the literature on clinical trials, we can use Tocilizumab, Ruxolitinib. Baricitinib, Itolizumab, Zilucoplan, Stem Cells (MSC transplantation, Umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells, and Placenta‐derived decidua stromal cells), Anakinra, Beta-glucans (AFO-202 and N-163 of a black yeast Aureobasidium pullulans), LDRT (Low-dose radiation therapy), ALS (Artificial-liver blood-purification system), and CP (Convalescent plasma) medication for treating COVID-19 patient with cytokine storm syndrome. The use of each treatment has its advantages and disadvantages. However. All of the above therapies have shown effectiveness in treating cytokine storms in clinical trials.

Objective of the review was to evaluate the correlation between treatment profile and survival analysis among Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) covid-19 patients. Journals were searched from Google scholar, Elsevier and Pubmed with references from 2018 to 2021. Hydroxychloroquine and favipiravir has a good outcome in treating severe to critical illness patients. Ivermectin has a better output on treating mild to moderate symptoms covid-19 but further study is required to know the outcome from treating severe to critical illness. Oseltamivir only works on mild cases of covid-19, early-onset therapy on patient covid-19 can reduce the time of fever. An antibacterial is applied on the covid-19 patients with pneumonia and for cytokine storm patients required tocilizumab on therapy. Severe to critical cases of covid-19 can be given corticosteroid. Lopinavir/ritonavir and ribavirin have a poor antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2. In conclusion, for severe to critical illness required hydroxychloroquine or favipiravir as antiviral agent plus antibacterial agent, if cytokine storm is developed tocilizumab can be given. For mild to moderate symptoms can be given oseltamivir or ivermectin, if there is a sign of bacterial infection (pneumonia) an antibacterial agent can be given.

Authors: GHOSH SOUMYADIP , GANGULY DEBGOPAL , MAJUMDER SUBHABROTA
Published: April 2022

Current drug treatments are focused on pharmacological and chemotherapeutical treatment such as controlling the acute and chronic aggravation of diseases, maintaining remission, treating specific complications, and reducing the toxic effects. Several drugs are inappropriate for long-term therapy due to high toxicity levels and the inability to maintain remission of the therapy. An inflammatory bowel disease is a group of idiopathic, chronic, and pathological conditions which pursue protracted relapsing and remitting course cause prolonged inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, including diarrhea, abdominal pain, bleeding, anemia, and weight loss due to dysregulated immune response. Several drugs have been come to the market to treat inflammatory bowel disease, but they are not potential to the patient due to their higher toxicity rate and low therapeutic activity. Ozanimod is an anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective oral selective modulator of sphingosine-1-phosphate selectively targeting inflammatory bowel disease like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease and is also involved in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. There is no serious adverse effect, as well as adverse events such as cardiac events, serious infections, or macular edema, was found in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. The conventional drug delivery of ozanimod has severe adverse effects, which can be reduced by nanocarrier and stability and bioavailability can be enhanced. This review discusses the Pharmacological and therapeutical insight of Ozanimod for targeting inflammatory bowel diseases like Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease as well as Multiple Sclerosis and the importance of nanocarriers for Ozanimod to target the colon region and recent advancement technology introduced to Ozanimod.

Literature Review on Internet Based Tracking System
Authors: Rathod Ankush , Sheikh Sharina , Mudholkar Sanketi , Vaidya Prof. Mrunali L.
Published: April 2022

Abstract: This analysis is based on the bus tracking system. The main intention of this work is to create an Internet-Based Tracking web application that would be able to track Nagpur buses more precisely and efficiently than present bus-tracking systems. We got the motivation for our research paper by observing how much precious time the public living in Nagpur wastes by just waiting for the bus on their particular route. There is also a lack of information for the buses that are traveling on their particular route for the public who have already missed their particular bus. The current generation is very technology-oriented and requires time-to-time updates via the internet. So, they can know the exact location of buses. This system will help to know the location of a bus without using GPS, bus schedules (i.e., according to timing), and also give information on routes and bus status. This technology will be very helpful for outsiders, college students, the local people of the city, and employees.
Analytical and Numerical Correlation of Hertz Contact under Elastic and Plastic Regime
Authors: ML Puneeth , Mallesh Dr. G.
Published: April 2022

Abstract: The contact of two bodies is found in many engineering applications. Some of the best examples are Hardness Testing, contact between ball bearings in races, Head –Disk interaction in storage devices, Impact of dust and other particles on Fan blades in a gas turbine and in Sports, especially where ball contact is dominant (like Golf, Hockey, Snooker etc.). The major characteristics of the problem are the localized deformation and the variation in the contact area with the contact force. The contact force–displacement relationship is nonlinear and high stresses are often generated. Therefore, plastic deformation is likely to occur for most engineering contact problems. This paper tries to simplify and concise the hertz contact behaviour under both Elastic and Plastic regime, which helps for better understanding in designing various contact parts.

Abstract: An important part in detecting and diagnosing leukaemia involves the microscopic examination of a patient’s blood sample. The type of malignant cells called the blasts is frequently determined by morphological alterations in White Blood Cells (WBCs). Real-time procedures are time-consuming, error-prone, and expensive. In order to overcome this problem the features such as the colour, shapes and texture can be extracted from the original image. This paper deals with the segmentation techniques. The segmentation process in automated approach is developed using k-means clustering (KMC) and Hidden-Markov Random Field (HMRF). This is also termed as Refined Segmentation (Re-Se). This analysis includes Aspirate Smear Images (ASI). First cell segmentation using a KMC is performed, then a Cell Image Representing Model (CIRM) using HMRF is build, estimating prototype variables using Expectation Maximization (EM) ratio, iterating until the best value is found, and finally achieving next phase called Refined Segmentation (Re-Se). Then, features including texture, geometry, colour, and statistical information are retrieved and used to categorize leukaemia cells from WBCs, by using Fuzzy Rule-Based Decision Support System (FRDSS). By incorporating more feature extraction techniques, the suggested method improves a blast of most immature cells identification for the Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) detection

Abstract: In today's world, machine learning and deep learning together are enabling around 80% of the human interactions through the sheer ubiquity of the solutions provided by this domain. But one of the problems with the existing world is most of the people are not able to understand the actual emotional meaning and occurrence behind a person's speech. For instance, people having problem like Catatonia, etc. are not able to express themselves clearly or some industries which are considering some marketing strategy according to the customer mood, etc. can use this method. So, to bridge this gap between the people, it is important to develop a system that can assist them and then predict their emotional speech. This paper reviews the different approaches adopted to reduce the barrier of emotional communication which are already in existence and what methodology they used while doing so. In this context, we also present an approach of using the Recurrent Neural Network which is a part of Deep learning algorithms. The whole process of automated systems which continuously learn, adapt, and improve without much instruction is really fascinating. Our primary goal is to create a robust communication system through technologies that enable machines to respond correctly and reliably to human voices and provide useful and valuable services accordingly. In this review, an extensive report is made on the various approaches available for speech emotion recognition that has been done till now. All the model's and accuracy aspects are taken into consideration and are relayed according to it.

Published: April 2022

Abstract: The risk of cyber-attack keeps on growing irrespective of development of new technologies for protection. One of the most frequent cyber-attacks is the DOS attack. A Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack is an attack which tries to shut down a machine or network, by flooding the target with unwanted traffic or triggers a crash by sending it some information, which makes it challenging for the users to access their network. A higher version of DoS attacks is the DDoS attacks that have recently become quite severe in security companies. Many organizations have begun facing these issues. Such attacks are very well coordinated that disrupts the normal functioning of the networking system from large firms to small scale business. Hence, detecting such attacks has become a tedious task. However, such a classification problem can be resolved using machine learning. Also, the same problem can be addressed using the concepts of cloud computing in order to detect and identify the computational effort carried out by the attacks. A DoS is generally considered to be an organized attack by hackers that is implemented from a single source of origin and targeted towards the victim’s end. In order to attack these systems such attackers impersonate themselves as legit users and gain access from the users by asking them their personal credential and details. As compared to this, a DDoS attack is limited to a single source of origin and takes place on distributed computers all together. Hence the primary aim of this thesis is to identify such attacks caused by hackers and detect them using machine learning algorithms.

Abstract: The structure and characteristics of aluminum-base sub-grade alloys with cereals micro-structure susceptible to severe plastic deformations (ECA pressing). Before and after the ECA pressure therapy, the structures and the characteristics of alloys 7050 and 2224 have been investigated in detail. With a fault elongation of 15 percent, the ultimate tensile power for the 7050 alloy was 677 MPa, whereas the 2224 alloy showed 618MPal with a fault elongation of 12 percent. Direct screening and recrystallization of bands in specific strains and rinsing systems resulted in finer cereal growth under the pressure of ECA. All improvements to grain refinement, dislocation reinforcement and precipitation were discussed in this Article more evenly and finely than the conventional T6 alloy. The development of fine grains has two explanations. One is that the ground grain is directly cut into fine grain with low angle limits by different bands. A further explanation is the development of high-angle recrystallized grains.
