Published: July 2022

Em 30 janeiro de 2020, a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) declarou como Emergência de Saúde Pública de Importância Internacional (ESPII) o surto de um novo vírus, antes não presente em seres humanos, o 2019-nCoV. A disseminação rápida da doença forçou a regulamentação de novas alternativas de trabalho, ensino e rotinas diárias em geral para atender as urgências da nova realidade. A telemedicina surge como uma realidade em ascensão durante a pandemia. A procura por atendimento remoto cresceu significativamente neste período e tornou-se essencial para garantir o distanciamento social. O objetivo geral do trabalho foi demonstrar a importância da telemedicina como ferramenta inovadora no combate a pandemia causada pelo novo Coronavirus no município de Aparecida de Goiânia.
Estimation of surface ammonia concentrations and emissions in China from the polar-orbiting Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer and the FY-4A Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder
Authors: Liu Pu , Ding Jia , Liu Lei , Xu Wen , Liu Xuejun
Published: July 2022

Abstract. Ammonia (NH3) is the most important alkaline gas in the atmosphere,
which has negative effects on biodiversity, ecosystems, soil acidification
and human health. China has the largest NH3 emissions globally, mainly
associated with agricultural sources including nitrogen fertilizer and
livestock. However, there is still a limited number of ground monitoring
sites in China, hindering our understanding of both surface NH3
concentrations and emissions. In this study, using the polar-orbiting
satellite (Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer – IASI) and Fengyun-4A Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder (GIIRS), we analyzed the changes in hourly NH3 concentrations and estimated surface
NH3 concentrations and NH3 emissions in China. GIIRS-derived
NH3 concentrations in the daytime were generally higher than those at night, with high values during 10:00–16:00 local time. Satellite-derived surface NH3 concentrations were generally consistent with the ground
observations, with R-square at 0.72 and slope equal to 1.03. Satellite-based NH3 emissions ranged from 12.17 to 17.77 Tg N yr−1 during 2008–2019. Spatially, high values of NH3 emissions mainly occurred in the North
China Plain, Northeast China and the Sichuan Basin, while low values were mainly distributed in West China (Qinghai–Tibet Plateau). Our study shows a high predictive power of using satellite data to estimate surface NH3
concentrations and NH3 emissions over multiple temporal and spatial
scales, which provides an important reference for understanding NH3
changes over China.
A model for simultaneous evaluation of NO2, O3, and PM10 pollution in urban and rural areas: handling incomplete data sets with multivariate curve resolution analysis
Authors: Gorrochategui Eva , Hernandez Isabel , Tauler Romà
Published: July 2022

Abstract. A powerful methodology, based on the multivariate curve resolution
alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) method with quadrilinearity constraints, is
proposed to handle complex and incomplete four-way atmospheric data sets,
providing concise results that are easy to interpret. Changes in air quality by
nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3), and particulate matter
(PM10) in eight sampling stations located in the Barcelona metropolitan
area and other parts of Catalonia during the COVID-19 lockdown period (2020) with
respect to previous years (2018 and 2019), are investigated using such
methodology. The MCR-ALS simultaneous analysis of the three contaminants among the eight
stations and for the 3 years allows the evaluation of potential correlations
among the pollutants, even when having missing data blocks. Correlated profiles are shown by NO2 and
PM10 due to similar pollution sources (traffic
and industry), evidencing a decrease in 2019 and 2020 due to traffic
restriction policies and the COVID-19 lockdown period, especially noticeable in the
most transited urban areas (i.e., Vall d'Hebron, Granollers and Gràcia).
The O3 evidences an opposed interannual trend, showing higher amounts in
2019 and 2020 with respect to 2018 due to the decreased titration effect, more
significant in rural areas (Begur) and in the control site (Obserbatori
Fabra).
Multi-hazard susceptibility mapping of cryospheric hazards in a high-Arctic environment: Svalbard Archipelago
Authors: Nicu Ionut Cristi , Elia Letizia , Rubensdotter Lena , Tanyas Hakan , Lombardo Luigi
Published: July 2022

Abstract. The Svalbard Archipelago represents the northernmost place on Earth where cryospheric hazards, such as thaw slumps (TS) and thermo-erosion gullies (TEG) could take place and rapidly develop under the influence of climatic variations. Svalbard permafrost is specifically sensitive to rapidly occurring warming and therefore, a deeper understanding of TS and TEG is necessary to understand and foresee the dynamics behind local cryospheric hazards' occurrences and their global implications. We present the latest update of two polygonal inventories where the extent of TS and TEG is recorded across Nordenskiöld Land (Svalbard Archipelago), over a surface of approximately 4000 km2. This area was chosen because it represents the most concentrated ice-free area of the Svalbard Archipelago and, at the same time, where most of the current human settlements are concentrated. The inventories were created through visual interpretation of high-resolution aerial photographs, as part of our ongoing effort toward creating a pan-Arctic repository of TS and TEG. Overall, we mapped 562 TS and 908 TEG, from which we separately generated two susceptibility maps using a Generalized Additive Modelling (GAM) approach, under the assumption that TS and TEG manifest across Nordenskiöld Land, according to a Bernoulli probability distribution. Once validating the modelling results, the two susceptibility patterns were combined into the first multi-hazard cryospheric susceptibility map of the area. The two inventories are available for the whole community at https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.945348 (Nicu et al., 2022a) and https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.945395 (Nicu et al., 2022b).

Abstract. Recent tracer-based studies using stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen showed that different methods for extracting water from plant tissues can return different isotopic compositions due to the presence of organic compounds and because they extract different plant water domains. One of the most used methods to extract plant water is the cryogenic vacuum distillation (CVD), which tends to extract total plant water. Conversely, the Scholander-type pressure chamber (SPC), which is commonly used by tree physiologists to measure water potential in plant tissues and determine plant water stress, is expected to extract only the more mobile plant water (i.e., xylem and inter-cellular water). However, only few studies reported the application of SPC to extract plant water for isotopic analyses, and therefore, inter-method comparisons between SPC and CVD are of great value. In this work, we analyzed the variability in the isotopic composition of plant water extracted by SPC and CVD, also considering the potential variability in the isotopic signature of the plant water extracted by CVD from various tissues (i.e., leaves, twig without bark, twig with bark, twig close to the trunk of the tree, and wood core) and from different plant species (i.e., alder, apple, chestnut, and beech). The extraction of plant water by SPC is simple, can be carried out in the field, and it does not require specific laboratory work as in the case of CVD. However, the main limitation of SPC is the very small water volume that can be extracted from the lignified twigs under water stress conditions compared to CVD. Our results indicated that plant water extracted by SPC and CVD were significantly different. The difference in the isotopic composition obtained by the two extraction methods was smaller in the beech samples compared to alder, apple, and chestnut samples. The isotopic signature of alder, apple, and chestnut plant water extracted by SPC was more enriched in δ2H and δ18O, respectively, than the samples obtained by CVD. We conclude that plant water extraction by SPC is not an alternative for CVD as SPC mostly extracts the mobile plant water, whereas CVD tends to retrieve all water stored in the sampled tissue from both living and dead cells. However, studies aiming to quantify the relative contribution of the soil water sources to transpiration should rely more on the isotopic composition of xylem water (which is theoretically sampled by SPC) than the isotopic composition of total plant water (sampled by CVD), which also contains a fraction of water that could be stored in plant tissues for a longer time.
Neutralización del original, borrado del femenino y pervivencia del masculino en la traducción: el caso de chairman
Authors: López Medel María
Published: July 2022

La neutralización de los originales ingleses no garantiza la neutralización de la traducción española e incluso puede ser contraproducente, sobre todo si el elemento neutralizado era femenino. Ocurre con la sustitución de chairman y chairwoman por alternativas neutras (chair, chairperson), que invisibiliza la escasa representación femenina y fomenta la masculinización por defecto en la traducción. En un estudio de corpus paralelos institucionales se analizan las incidencias de chairman y sus variantes de género, y los efectos en la traducción española. Además de observar las consecuencias negativas de la neutralización de los originales en términos de visibilidad de las mujeres en ambas lenguas, se constata la repercusión en la lengua de llegada de las técnicas de lenguaje no sexista empleadas en el original.
Mantener la diferencia. La traducción del cambio de código inglés/español en la literatura latina: estudio de caso
Authors: Jiménez Carra Nieves
Published: July 2022

En este trabajo se analiza una obra perteneciente a la llamada “literatura latina”, en la que su principal característica lingüística es el uso que en ella se hace del cambio de código inglés/español. El objetivo es estudiar las estrategias empleadas, tanto por parte de la autora como por parte de la traductora. En el primer caso, se concretan estrategias similares a las empleadas por otros autores (autotraducción, inserción de símbolos propios de español…) y, en el segundo, se detecta un uso mayoritario de la técnica de la compensación. Mediante el análisis de ejemplos concretos puestos en contexto, se determina que esta técnica de traducción es una de las más efectivas cuando se traducen textos en los que la intercalación de dos idiomas es característica principal, y se recalca la importancia del mantenimiento de este rasgo en las traducciones, no solo desde un punto de vista lingüístico, sino también de contextualización social.

Ai- Driven Exams Clearance Scheme as a Part of the Existing E-Learning Systems: Case Study (The International University of East Africa, And Makerere University)
Authors: K. Edison , B.L. Israel
Published: July 2022

This paper discusses an AI Driven Exam Clearance System as part of the existing eLearning System. The system recommends a criterion where a student can sit for their final year semester exams even when they have not yet cleared tuition fees of the final year 2nd semester of their program of study using students’ payment history data. The software is sectioned into the accounts and faculty segments. The faculty manager handles the adding of student’s attendance to the system after a student request has been made, the account manager handles the addition of the category of payment plan that the student falls into and the system validates and recommends students that meet the criterion. This system was designed to overcome the problems identified with the current eLearning System whereby many final years, and final semester students find it difficult or are unable to get permission to do their final exams with an outstanding balance. The legacy system used in the company was also studied in more detail. With this, more requirements for the AI Driven Clearance System were obtained and the system was designed and implemented. The interfaces for the module system were implemented using HTML, Bootstrap, and Java Script. MYSQL was also used for implementing the system database while Python and Django framework was used to create interactivity with the database. After the implementation, the new system was then tested, validated, re-evaluated, and then deployed.

Published: July 2022

Inguinodynia (chronic inguinal pain) is one of the most feared complications for surgeons after inguinal hernia repair with prosthetic mesh placement. The biopsychosocial impact of this complication can lead to a considerable decrease in patients quality of life. Chronic inguinal pain can appear at varying periods after surgery, for weeks to years after the surgical procedure. The pain is classified as neuropathic and non-neuropathic related to nerve injury and mesh, respectively. The diagnosis and clinical management of this condition is a separate challenge for medical specialists in hernia surgery, requiring a thorough knowledge of inguinal anatomy, advanced surgical knowledge, and literature references on the subject are still limited. In this article we discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic tools as well as the surgical maneuvers for the intervention of inguinodynia.

Authors: Aduko Edmund Anamboi , Azuuga Emmanuel Issah , Apenen Adakudugu Edward , Baawuo Anthony
Published: July 2022

The study used a questionnaire survey to collect quantitative data from respondents. The independent variables of interest were level of math and science self-efficacy beliefs, as well as self-efficacy for teaching math and science. The questionnaire survey was voluntarily completed by 60 teachers, comprising 45 male and 15 female. The respondents ranged in age from 19 to 38 years. The findings of the study revealed that the mathematics and science teachers at the basic school had high level of self-efficacy beliefs. The study further discovered that though not strong, there is a positive relationship between math and science teachers’ self-efficacy and their ability to teach math and science. The findings also found that math and science teachers’ scores on the MSSEB scale for mathematics and science self-efficacy beliefs were generally higher than their scores on the SETMS scale for self-efficacy for teaching mathematics and science. The ability to effectively explain math /science concepts to students received the lowest mean rating in comparison to others. Teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and self-efficacy can be important considerations for teacher professional development training as a powerful intervening factor for teacher effectiveness and student performance outcomes.

三環抗憂鬱劑為抗憂鬱用藥之一，在過量時患者可能會出現抗膽鹼症狀、甚至是具有致死風險的中樞神經以及心血管毒性症狀。本篇案例報告介紹一位中年女性因三環抗憂鬱劑中毒而導致意識不清、呼吸衰竭以及癲癇反覆發作，接受緊急氣管內管插管以及鎮靜藥物治療後仍未見改善，但因並未出現典型的抗膽鹼症狀，在十二導程心電圖檢查以及一系列毒藥物篩檢確立診斷後，始接受碳酸氫鈉藥物治療、抗癲癇藥物的控制以及後續血管收縮藥物的支持，其後順利康復。筆者希望藉由此案例分享，以及中毒的臨床症狀、診斷和治療等介紹，能增加臨床同仁對三環抗憂鬱劑中毒的認識，也提醒同仁臨床病人藥物過量時常合併多種藥物使用，使得所謂毒性症候群表現往往不典型，因而增加臨床上診斷的困難度和挑戰性，結合病史詢問、理學檢查以及實驗室檢查仍然是早期診斷藥物中毒的不二法門

 

Tricyclic antidepressants are a class of antidepressants, an overdose of which may cause anticholiner­gic syndromes. In severe cases, fatal central nervous system failure and cardiovascular toxicity may occur. This case report describes a middle-aged female patient who was suffered from unconscious­ness, respiratory failure, and recurrent seizures due to tricyclic antidepressant toxicity. Emergent endotracheal intubation and sedative drug treatment were failed to improve her condition. Given the absence of typical anticholinergic symptoms, the diagnosis was established followed by a 12-lead elec­trocardiogram examination and a series of toxic-drug screening. The patient received treatments with sodium bicarbonate, anti-epileptic drugs, and vasopressor support, which led to full recovery from the intoxication. The authors expect that by sharing this case and introducing the clinical symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of tricyclic antidepressant-induced toxicity, clinicians could be more familiar with this syndromes. We would like to remind our peers that in clinical settings, patients presenting with drug overdose often took several drugs concomitantly. As such, the toxic syndrome is often atyp­ical which increases the difficulty of clinical diagnosis. The combination of medical history inquiry, physical examination, and laboratory tests remains the key for diagnosing drug toxicity at the early stage.

 
Women’s Decision-Making and Movement Autonomy in Tanzania
Authors: Maliti Emmanuel
Published: July 2022

Women, like men, maintain simultaneous membership in the household, the conjugal unit, the community, and at the individual levels. Using the latest 2015/2016 Demographic and Health Survey (DHS), which is nationally representative, this study incorporates well-supported covariates in the existing literature in a multivariate regression analysis, to measure the relative importance of four domains of factors hypothesized to affect women’s autonomy in household decision-making. These factors are (1) women’s individual characteristics, (2) husband’s/partner’s characteristics, (3) household characteristics, and (4) community-level characteristics. Women’s autonomy was confirmed to be low in Tanzania, more so for the decision authority in purchasing large household items than authority around their own healthcare, decisions to visit family and friends, and the use of their own earnings. Research findings show that women with greater autonomy are more likely to be older, educated, earn their own income, be cohabitating, live in polygamous situations, reside in urban areas, and be married to educated husbands/partners with a higher socioeconomic status. In addition, the study results provide some insight into intrahousehold dynamics, acknowledging the disadvantaged position of women in extended families compared to women in nuclear households. The study results directly inform the Sustainable Development Goals’ (SDGs) monitoring indicators—particularly on the proportion of women with autonomy in decision-making, an indicator under SDG no. 5 and inform education-related policy recommendations.
Design, synthesis and antibacterial activity of novel metal complex of 3-amino-2-methyl 6-1odo quinazolin-4(3H)-one
Authors: Osarumwense Peter Osarodion
Published: July 2022

Introduction: 4(3H)-quinazolinone rings have been reported to possess different biological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antitubercular, antiviral, anticancer. These activities also include antihypertensive, diuretic, antimicrobial, pesticidal, anticonvulsant, anaesthetic and sedative activities, anti-malarial, and anti-diabetic.The above observations and findings stimulated my interest to synthesize these novel, Co (ll) , Cu (ll) and Zn (ll) complexes of 3-amino-2-methyl-6-lodo-quinazolin-4 (3H)-one compounds. Methods: A new Ligand 3-amino-2-methyl 6-Iodo quinazolin-4(3H)-One (L) has been synthesized in good yield by the reaction of methyl 2-amino 5-Iodo benzoate with acetic anhydride, then replace the oxygen with nitrogen of hydrazine. When the ligand react with Co (11), Zn (11) and Cu (11) new complexes are formed. The chemical structure of all prepared compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV/visible, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and GCMS, moreover, molar ration M: L were also determined. The free Ligand and their metal complexes were tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms, gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus species and Enterococcus feacalis), gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, and pseudomonas aeruginosa) and fungi (Candida albicans) in order to assess their antibacterial properties. All our complexes showed considerable activity against all bacteria. Conclusions: From our findings, all the complexes synthesized have higher activities against the test microorganisms as compared to the ligand activity.

Authors: Juliette Ornely Orango Bourdette  , Hugues Calixte Eyi Ndong  , Henri Paul Bourobou Bourobou  , Louis Clément Obame Engonga
Published: July 2022

A mycochemical study followed by an evaluation of anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities of Pycnoporus sanguineus, a species of lignicole mushroom exploited in traditional medicine in Gabon, was carried out on four extracts. Bioactive compounds were extracted by successive macerations with water, hydro-ethanol (50-50), ethanol solvents and sonication was used for dichloromethane-methanol (50-50) extraction. Agilent LC-MS system was used for the molecular profile of the different extracts and fractions. The fractionation of the extracts was made by flash chromatography and the purification using preparative chromatography. Structures of compounds responsible for the pharmacological activities were determinated by NMR. Cytotoxicity essay was carried out on PNT2 cells and the anticancer activities on A549 and PC3 cell lines. Two molecules have been isolated from this fungus; namely m/z 301.04 [M-H] + corresponding to cinnabarinic acid and m/z 287.06 [M-H]+ for which the NMR data were insufficient to confirm the molecular identification. Anti-inflammatory activity of the aqueous extract was stronger (IC50 = 197.82 μg/ml) than niflumic acid (IC50 = 809.27 μg/ml) but weaker than diclofenac (IC50 = 15.28 μg/ml). However, the hydro-ethanolic and ethanolic extracts of P. sanguineus, have a weaker anti-inflammatory activity than niflumic acid and diclofenac. About cytotoxicity, the crude extracts and fractions tested have anticancer and cytotoxic activities on A549, PC3 and PNT2 lines. However, these activities are more pronounced in the healthy line PNT2 than in the cancerous lines A549 and PC3.

In our University's Vocational School of Health Services, there is a Dental Prosthesis Technology program, which provides training to train dental technicians who enable the laboratory work of fixed and removable prostheses according to the treatment planned by the dentist. In the dental prosthesis technology program, in addition to the theoretical courses, practical courses are also given. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the demographic data of students enrolled in a state university, the efficiency of the practice courses and the students' perspectives on the profession. Our study group consisted of 61 second year students from the University of Health Sciences Department of Dental Services, Dental Prosthesis Technology Program. All of the students voluntarily participated in the survey created via Google Forms. In our study, students' application efficiency was measured as practise evaluation score (PES). In addition, questions about job anxiety levels and career planning after graduation were asked. There was no statistically significant difference between the distributions of career planning according to the reason for choosing the department (p>0.050). There is no statistically significant relationship between the age of the students and their anxiety about finding a job when they graduate (p=0.257). According to gender, students' anxiety about finding a job when they graduate differs (p=0.031). There was no significant difference between the application evaluation scores of the students according to their career planning (p>0.050). As a result of the study, the anxiety level of finding a job after graduation in female students was found to be higher than that of male students. The students stated that the reason for their low PES was the limited time given.

Fetal fluids, which are important in feto-maternal homeostasis, may be affected by the number of developing fetuses, and these effects can be evaluated by measuring some biochemical markers. Aim: The present study was carried out to investigate the difference in metabolic needs between twin and singleton pregnancies by looking at some biochemical and hormonal markers in the amniotic fluid taken at the time of birth in Awassi sheep. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 Awassi sheep were used in the study. Sheep were divided into 2 groups according to the number of offsprings by ultrasonography. The first group of the study (Group 1, n=15); ewes carrying one offspring included the second group of the study (Group 2, n=15); created sheep carrying two offsprings. From the sheep in both study groups; 10 ml of amniotic fluid was taken with a sterile syringe without disturbing the integrity of the amniotic sac hanging from the lips of the vulva at the time of delivery. Electrolyte (sodium, potassium, chlorine, calcium, phosphorus), total protein, glucose, liver (ALT and AST), kidney biomarkers (urea and keratinin) and cortisol levels were measured from the amniotic fluid. Obtained data were analyzed with independent samples t-test (Independent Sample T-test). Results: In the amniotic fluid; glucose and cortisol levels were significantly higher in the twin pregnant group than in the singleton pregnant group (p

Introdução: Pessoas com deficiência (PcD) possuem direitos assegurados ao acesso a todos os ambientes, entretanto, ainda existem ambientes desfavoráveis à mobilidade, favorecendo a exclusão das PcD. Objetivo: Verificar a existência de barreiras arquitetônicas nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS) e Estratégias de Saúde da Família (ESF) nos municípios da 13a Coordenadoria Regional de Saúde (CRS) do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Método: Avaliadas unidades de Atenção Básica à Saúde (ABS) através de questionário do tipo checklist que mapearam a acessibilidade e a existência de barreiras arquitetônicas de acordo com as normas da Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas (ABNT). Resultados: Foram avaliadas 44 unidades de ABS com abrangência de 17 UBS e 27 ESF, sendo constatadas estruturas inadequadas para o acesso de PcD temporária ou permanente. As unidades de saúde apresentaram-se em edificações antigas da comunidade e sem construção específica para as necessidades dos usuários, tendo sido evidenciadas inadequações nos corrimãos de acesso, na largura inferior das portas da área de circulação interna e portas dos banheiros, sendo as UBS mais inadequadas que as ESF. Conclusão: Nenhum serviço das unidades de ABS da 13a CRS encontra-se totalmente de acordo com a ABNT (NBR 9050), sendo necessárias adequações que atendam a política nacional de direitos de PcD para que haja inclusão das mesmas no acesso aos serviços públicos de saúde.
There is no inside/outside: on the entanglement of bodily self and biosocial environment as a basis for connectedness and compassion in times of COVID-19
Authors: Staemmler Frank-M.
Published: July 2022

Abstract: The emergence of COVID-19 has confronted the world with new challenges that ask for creative adjustments. This is also the case in the therapeutic world, including how Gestalt therapy is practised under pandemic conditions. In this paper I discuss several experiences and reflections that occurred to me in the first half of 2020. For instance, I point out that the Gestalt therapy concept of the boundary appears insufficient to adequately understand the entanglement of world and person. I also report on some therapeutic situations and how my clients and I tried to cope creatively with the given circumstances. Keywords: as-if body loop, atmosphere, boundary, compassion, connection, core affect, COVID-19, coronavirus, creative adjustment, fantasy, internal/external, lived body, object constancy, touch

This study aims to develop learning activities to contribute to the theory based on empirical activities in learning the topic of summation involving negative numbers. This research also develops learning activities that combine context and models that students can apply to understand the topic. The type of research used to attain the objectives in this study is design research, each cycle consists of three steps, namely preliminary study, classroom experiment and retrospective method. The subjects of the study were grade 4 students and teachers at SD Islam Athirah Makassar. The results showed that to help students understand the concept of summation involving negative numbers, students must understand the concept of negative numbers and use the number line model to count. This can be supported by the context of equilibrium and the number line as a representation of the negative numbers. In classroom learning, the use of context stimulates students to think informally, furthermore, by indicating a state using numbers and with the help of a number line model, students can solve mathematical problems at a formal level.

Bacteria are being unicellular and prokaryotes came to this earth before us and others. They are able to survive anywhere in this earth including soil, water both saline and normal, in all living creatures, hills, sands, ice of north and south poles, sea and desert. Some are helpful and commensals as they not harm us but many of them produce disease in which they survive, these are harmful bacteria, so called pathogenic or disease producing bacteria. Not only bacteria but also a lot of other organism are pathogenic like fungus, virus etc. but here we are limited to bacteria’s only. Data’s are collected by a self-prepared preformed proforma, which is prepared as per study design and includes Age, Sex, Disease, Unit, Ward, AMA or AMAs prescribed, Average no of AMAs, Dose, Frequency, Route of administration, along with Govt. supply or private purchase and supply chain. This study also focused wide spread drug resistance, mostly multiple drug resistance by many organisms, a matter of great concern along with a shocking challenge for present as well as for future.
India’s refugee crisis

Published: July 2022

This article is an attempt to shed light on the magnanimous crisis faced by Refugees in India. It talks about how the statutes and laws have attempted to minimize the effect of the crisis as well as how laws carve the way out for Refugees in India. The primary pillar on which refugees survive against atrocities in India is Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. Despite its overcrowding, India continues to allow refugees through various diplomatic means. However, there may not be a unified criminal framework in place to protect refugees. The 1951 Refugee Convention, which defines the term "refugee," is the principal source on the subject of refugee legislation. The conference's first objective was established in 1951. A person who has to leave behind a normal life and relocate to a completely new place and a new country because of political, demographic, or war-like scenarios becomes a Refugee. (Lentini, 1985)
