Introduction: Bertolotti’s syndrome (BS) is defined as the presence of low back pain (LBP), radiculopathy or both with a dysplastic transverse process (TP) of the fifth lumbar vertebra that is articulated or fused with the sacral base or iliac crest. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and severity of BS to promote awareness of this disease.
Methods: A retrospective review of anteroposterior lumbosacral plain radiographs was conducted between 1 January and 31 December 2017. Patients were recruited via systematic randomised sampling and were then interviewed and examined. The severity of BS was measured objectively using the numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) and Oswestry disability questionnaire (ODQ). Data were analysed using IBM SPSS for Windows version 22.
Results: The prevalence of BS was 9.6% (16/166). Age significantly affected the severity of BS. The older and younger groups had a mean ODQ score of 42.86% and 24.08%, respectively (P=0.006). There was no significant relationship found between the prevalence of BS and age (P=0.126). Only one patient was diagnosed with BS during medical consultation. The mean NPRS score was 5.5. The majority of the BS cases were of moderate severity (43.8%), followed
by those of minimal severity (31.2%) and severe disability (25%).
Conclusion: Early diagnosis of BS and orthopaedic referral are crucial to halt its progression. BS should be considered in patients presenting with LBP during assessments of lumbosacral radiographs.

Introduction: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related stigmatisation and discrimination adversely affect health outcomes in terms of timely diagnosis, treatment and care. Despite global efforts, they remain common among healthcare workers worldwide. In Malaysia, family medicine specialists are entrusted with the care of HIV patients at the primary care level. This study aimed to assess HIV-related knowledge, acts of discrimination, stigmatising attitudes and their associated factors among family medicine trainees in Malaysia.
Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 397 family medicine trainees in Malaysia using a validated, self-administered questionnaire that assessed the participants’ sociodemographic information, HIV/AIDS knowledge, stigmatising attitudes (attitudes of blame, attitudes towards imposed measures, comfort in dealing with HIV patients) and acts of discrimination.
Results: The most common stigmatisation was “attitudes of blame” (mean [SD] score: 3.0 (0.74); range score:1–5), and the most frequent discriminatory act was breaching patient confidentiality (54.9%). Around 82.1% had good knowledge of HIV/AIDS. Married participants and participants who had 7 years or less in service were more stigmatising in “attitudes of imposed measures” towards people living with HIV (p=0.006).
Conclusion: Family medicine trainees exhibited stigmatisation and discrimination towards HIV patients despite having good HIV knowledge. Hence, appropriate and concerted health education should be given to all family medicine trainees to eliminate stigmatisation and discrimination.

Merchandise inventory is the most important asset in the continuity of a trading business or shop. Toko Kudus Jaya is a retail trading business that sells hundreds of types of nuts and bolts of various types and sizes. The problem is that this store still uses manual recording in recording its merchandise inventory. This is considered vulnerable to various kinds of recording errors such as excess or shortage of inventory and is also considered less effective because it takes a lot of time in the recording process. The next problem is the procedure for ordering goods which only relies on sales estimates and is only carried out when the inventory has been exhausted without taking into account other costs at the time the order is placed. To solve these problems, the authors use Research And Development (R&D) as a product research and development method and the EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) method which is used to calculate the optimal number of orders by taking into account storage costs and ordering costs. The author designed a prototype web-based merchandise inventory management information system with the EOQ method, the PHP programming language, MySQL as the database and the bootstrap framework as the user interface. The application of web-based technology with the EOQ method is expected to help stores in their work activities so that they get data that is integrated in one database and can determine the number of orders so as to save costs incurred when placing an order.
Direct measurement of N2O5 heterogeneous uptake coefficients on ambient aerosols via an aerosol flow tube system: design, characterization and performance
Authors: Chen Xiaorui , Wang Haichao , Zhai Tianyu , Li Chunmeng , Lu Keding
Published: December 2022

Abstract. An improved aerosol flow tube system coupled with a detailed box model was developed to measure N2O5 heterogeneous uptake coefficients (γ(N2O5)) on ambient aerosols directly. This system features sequential measurements of N2O5 concentrations at both the entrance and exit of the flow tube to ensure an accurate retrieval of N2O5 loss in the flow tube. Simulation and laboratory tests demonstrate that this flow tube system is able to overcome the interference
from side reactions led by varying reactants (e.g., NO2, O3 and
NO) and to improve the robustness of results with the assistance of the box model
method. Factors related to γ(N2O5) derivation – including particle transmission efficiency, mean
residence time in the flow tube and the wall loss coefficient of N2O5 – were
extensively characterized for normal operating conditions. The measured γ(N2O5) on
(NH4)2SO4 model aerosols were in good agreement with literature values over a range of relative humidity (RH). The detection
limit of γ(N2O5) was estimated to be 0.0016 at a low aerosol
surface concentration (Sa) condition of 200 µm2 cm−3. Given the instrument uncertainties and potential fluctuation of air mass between successive sampling modes, we estimate the overall uncertainty of γ(N2O5) as ranging from 16 % to 43 % for different ambient conditions. This flow tube system was then successfully deployed for field
observations at an urban site of Beijing that is influenced by anthropogenic
emissions. The performance in field observations demonstrates that the
current setup of this system is capable of obtaining robust γ(N2O5) amid the switch of air mass.
Multiscale meteorological controls and impact of soil moisture heterogeneity on radiation fog in complex terrain
Authors: Lin Dongqi , Katurji Marwan , Revell Laura E. , Khan Basit , Sturman Andrew
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Coupled surface-atmosphere high-resolution simulations were carried out to understand radiation fog development and persistence in a city surrounded by complex terrain. The controls of mesoscale meteorology and microscale soil moisture heterogeneity on fog were investigated using case studies for the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. Numerical model simulations from the synoptic to micro- scale were carried out using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and the Parallelised Large-Eddy Simulation Model (PALM). Heterogeneous soil moisture, land use, and topography were included. The spatial heterogeneity of soil moisture was derived using Landsat 8 (https://www.usgs.gov/landsat-missions/landsat-8, last access: 10 October 2022) satellite imagery and ground-based meteorological observations. Eight simulations were carried out under identical meteorological conditions. One contained homogeneous soil moisture and one contained heterogeneous soil moisture derived from Landsat 8 imagery. For the other six simulations, the soil moisture heterogeneity magnitudes were amplified following the observed spatial distribution to aid our understanding of the impact of soil moisture heterogeneity. Our results showed that soil moisture heterogeneity did not significantly change the general spatial structure of near-surface fog occurrence, even when amplified. However, compared to homogeneous soil moisture, spatial heterogeneity in soil moisture leads to significant changes in radiation fog duration. The resulting changes in fog duration can be more than 50 minutes, although such changes are not directly correlated with spatial variations in soil moisture. The simulations showed that the mesoscale (104 to 2 × 105 m) meteorology controls the location of fog occurrence, while soil moisture heterogeneity alters fog duration at the microscale (10−2 to 103 m). Our results highlight the importance of including soil moisture heterogeneity for accurate spatiotemporal fog forecasting.

Abstract. The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha‘apai volcano eruption was a unique event that caused many atmospheric phenomena around the globe. In this study, we investigate the atmospheric gravity waves in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere (MLT) launched by the volcanic explosion in the Pacific leveraging multistatic meteor radar observations from the Chilean Observation Network De Meteor Radars (CONDOR) and the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster in Fennoscandia. MLT winds are computed using a recently developed 3DVAR+DIV algorithm. We found an eastward and a westward traveling gravity wave in the CONDOR zonal and meridional wind measurements, which arrived 12 hours and 48 hours after the eruption, and one in Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster that arrived 27.5 hours after the volcanic detonation. We obtained observed phase speeds for the eastward great circle path at both locations of about 250 m/s and 170–150 m/s for the opposite propagation direction. The intrinsic phase speed was estimated to be 200–212 m/s. Furthermore, we identified a potential lamb wave signature in the MLT winds using 5 minute resolved 3DVAR+DIV retrievals.

"My Name Is..."
Authors: Thomas Carrie Anne , Samjose Blessy
Published: December 2022

A child’s personal name is an integral part of their identity. Names and name negotiation in children’s picturebooks can explore this connection by narrativizing the impact of positive and negative experiences involving name-carriers, name-givers, and name-users. In this study, we began with a framework combining a socio-onomastic perspective with the children’s literature metaphor of “mirrors and windows” (Bishop 1990) and the educational research concept of “damage and desire” narratives (Tuck 2009). Our content analysis of twelve picturebooks featuring characters with culturally and linguistically diverse names led to a coding scheme of six common episodes of name negotiation in the picturebooks’ narrative arcs: (1) inflicted damage; (2) internalized damage; (3) supplying desire; (4) internalized desire; (5) asserting the desire; and (6) joining the desire. Our findings highlight how episodes of damage focus on the pain, sadness, and struggle name-carriers undergo, while episodes of desire center the support of parents and teachers as well as detailed cultural and familial information about names. We conclude that while both “damage and desire” episodes contribute to the narratives, too heavy a focus on damage could lead to the perpetuation of a “single story” (Adichie 2009) that normalizes pain and struggle as an inevitable experience for children with linguistically and culturally diverse names.

For many of us, some of our earliest and fondest memories involve story-time, when we discovered tales that had the power to inspire, calm, or chill the spirit. Over the years, the exact details of those stories may fade from our memories. However, the names of the fictional characters and imaginary places they inhabited often survive. In the spring of 2021, the American Name Society issued a call for papers for a special issue of NAMES on children’s literature, names, and naming.

Authors: Rahmawati  , Beze Husmul , B Muslimin
Published: December 2022

A livable house is abbreviated as the feasibility of a residential house which can be measured from 2 aspects, namely the physical quality of the house and the quality of house facilities. The physical quality of the residential house is measured by 3 variables, namely the type of roof, the type of wall, and the type of floor, while the quality of the housing facilities is measured by 2 variables, namely the source of lighting and the availability of toilet facilities. In this study, the authors use the prototype method using data analysis and system design. This web-based geographic information system for livable houses in Kandolo Village aims to assist in the data collection process for livable houses in Kandolo Village. The results of this study 257 house data have been entered, of which 247 houses are suitable for livable on, 6 houses that are less suitable for livable on, and 4 houses that are not suitable for livable on. For visitors, this system functions to select houses that are livable by looking at several registered pins, then the system will take the resident data detail page. Then in the detail section of citizen data, there will be some resident data, photos of houses, and routes to their destination. From the application trial results, the author conducted a black box test with 11 test class items and respondent tests for direct users at the Kandolo Village Office where the features are used to well and are accepted among the community.

In the reporting system at the Department of Industry of Samarinda City, reports on problems from the community are distributed to related parties collectively and manually, so the submission process tends to be long. Submission of long reports has an impact on the slow response from the government to the community. In addition, the process of distributing reports manually means that the public does not know how the government will follow up on the report. Therefore, this research aims to help the community in terms by submitting complaints or suggestions to the Samarinda City Industry Office and to assist the Samarinda City Industry Office to serve the community in terms of answering public complaints. The results of this study can facilitate the work of the Samarinda City Industry Office in viewing complaints from Samarinda City residents via the Web and can be monitored online by the Admin. In addition, residents of Samarinda City can voice their aspirations freely and easily without having to go to the Samarinda City Industry Office
Al-Andalus en Chile: hacia una triangulación histórica Mundo árabe- España-América Latina a través del semanario árabe-chileno La Reforma (1930-1942)
Authors: López Oliva Alberto Benjamín
Published: December 2022

El artículo aborda los usos sociales, culturales y políticos del pasado andalusí a través del periódico La Reforma (1930-1942), órgano de información y comunicación de la colectividad árabe en Chile, en un periodo de notoria y progresiva integración de los emigrantes en las estructuras socio-económicas chilenas, así como de máxima inquietud ante el devenir político de sus países de origen, a la sazón subyugados por la agenda colonial europea. En concreto localizamos testimonios periodísticos de escritores y pensadores emigrados desde el Levante árabe a América, chilenos y españoles de cierto influjo en la intelectualidad chilena de los años treinta, que inciden en los aportes e innovaciones de los sabios andalusíes a la cultura medieval europea, la integración de lo árabe en la sociedad e historiografía latinoamericana, a través del proceso de conquista española, y las tesis de los nacionalistas andaluces que otorgaron a los emigrantes árabes en América un papel protagónico como intermediarios de las nuevas relaciones hispano-árabes.
Propuesta de una nueva taxonomía de las paremias del árabe clásico y dialectal marroquí
Authors: Dafir Azeddine
Published: December 2022

La paremiografía árabe está muy arraigada en la historia y data de años remotos. No obstante, la paremiología, o sea, la parte de la disciplina que se interesa por el estudio sincrónico de las paremias, es muy reciente y aún no se basa en fundamentos científicos sólidos. De hecho, se constata una confusión terminológica a la hora de agrupar los diferentes enunciados que constituyen el mundo paremiológico árabe y deslindar sus fronteras. El objetivo de este artículo es ofrecer una nueva taxonomía de las unidades paremiológicas válidas tanto para el árabe clásico como para el árabe dialectal marroquí. En primer lugar, se ha presentado un estado de la cuestión de los estudios paremiológicos realizados hasta ahora. Luego, se ha hecho un estudio crítico de los mismos, con el fin de resaltar sus logros y señalar sus deficiencias. La última labor consiste en la aplicación de unos parámetros científicos para ofrecer una clasificación muy rigurosa del universo paremiológico árabe y marroquí.
Application of the WASP Model for Assessment of Aeration Impact on Water Quality of Porsuk River, Turkey
Authors: Dumlu Emre , Elci Sebnem
Published: December 2022

Porsuk Stream is the longest branch of the Sakarya Basin which originates from Murat Mountain and bypasses the provinces of Kutahya and Eskisehir. Based on recent increasing pollution concentrations reported in the literature, the main river is experiencing problems with decreased water quality. In this study, hydrodynamics and water quality parameters are simulated in the Porsuk River via the application of the Water Quality Analysis Simulation Program (WASP) using the available flow and meteorological data. After the validation of the hydrodynamics along the main river, water quality parameters are simulated using the eutrophication module. Simulation of dissolved oxygen concentrations pointed out hypoxia, especially at two locations; Kutahya-Reservoir1 and Alpu-Guroluk segments where dissolved oxygen values stayed well below the standard limits throughout the year. As a mitigation option, aeration applications at these two stations are proposed and the effects of aeration on the simulated parameters of dissolved oxygen, phosphorus and nitrate concentrations are investigated. Aeration at two segments has significantly improved the dissolved oxygen concentrations (from ~3 mg/l to >14 mg/l) whereas it has a more subtle effect on nitrate and phosphorus concentrations.

Published: December 2022

The distribution and location of infrastructural facilities are important indicators of government involvement and democratic accountability dividends throughout developing rural areas. This study assessed the spatial distribution of infrastructural facilities in the Northern Senatorial District of Taraba State. Utilising the Growth Pole theory and the exploratory research design, the study adopted the quantitative and qualitative methods comprising of questionnaire administration, interviews, and observations and the handheld GPS device to get coordinates for ArcGIS spatial analysis to carry out the study in three local government areas (Ardo Kola, Lau, and Zing LGAs) purposefully selected from the district. The Krejcie and Morgan determining sample size statistics were used to generate a study sample of 384 from a projected population of 415,100 in the three local government areas. The study found that even though the infrastructural facilities have yielded positive development in the areas, they are located based on government projected interests. It concludes that infrastructural facilities should be dispersed fairly to benefit the general public, particularly in areas in desperate need. It is also suggested that the government should support host communities' efforts to maintain public facilities.

Guillain-Baree syndrome also called guillain–Barré–Strohl syndrome, Landry's paralysis, post - infectious polyneuritis whichis a rare, at one or two cases per 100, 000 people every year, where auto-immune disorder in which a persons own immune system damaged the nerves, causing muscule weakness and sometimes paralysis. GBS can cause symptoms that last for a few weeks to several years. Most people recover fully, but some have permanent nerve damage. some people have died of GBS. Several things are known to tigger GBS. About two-thirds of people with GBS had diarrhea or a respiratory illness several weeks before developing symptoms. Infection with campylobacter jejuni, which causes diarrhea, is one of the most common risk factors for GBS. People can develop GBS after some other infections, such as flu, cytomegalovirus, Epstein barr virus, and zika virus. Very rarely, people have developed GBS in the days or weeks after receiving certain vaccines. It can be caused by campylobacter infection that is diagnosed when a laboratory tests detect campylobacter bacteria in stool, body tissue, or fluids. The test could be a culture that isolates the bacteria or a rapid diagnostic test that detects genetic material of the bacteria. The major aim of this case report is to present a classic case of this condition, to highlight an awareness of differing treatment options, and to advocate referral to a given its physician potential severity. Treatment for GBS including antibiotics, drink extra fluids as long as diarrhea lasts, plasma exchange, immunoglobulin therapy2.
