Authors: Nasreddine Hassan , Tlaiss Yehya , Hassan Firas , Ibrahim Reina
Published: August 2024

This technical note explores the diagnostic potential of ultrasound in assessing age-related changes in the soft tissues of the lower face and neck, with a primary focus on identifying causes of contour deformities and guiding minimally invasive rejuvenation procedures. Seventeen clinical patients with various age-related soft-tissue changes were subjected to ultrasound assessments, targeting issues such as soft-tissue sagging, supra- and subplatysmal adipose tissue excess, platysma thickness, and localization of ptotic platysma strands. The ultrasound examinations successfully identified specific anatomical features contributing to age-related soft-tissue changes in all 17 patients. This information guided tailored treatment plans, resulting in remarkable esthetic improvements in each case. The discussion emphasizes ultrasound’s invaluable role as a diagnostic tool for precisely identifying soft-tissue alterations in the lower face and neck. The noninvasive nature and high spatial resolution of ultrasound make it particularly effective for this purpose. The corrective methods guided by ultrasound findings proved to be minimally invasive and yielded successful outcomes in all cases, promoting high levels of patient satisfaction. The study highlights the underutilization of ultrasound’s diagnostic potential in clinical practice and highlights the importance of its incorporation into routine assessments. Ultrasound emerges as a cost-effective, noninvasive, and accessible means of accurately diagnosing age-related soft-tissue changes, empowering clinicians to tailor rejuvenation procedures to each patient’s unique needs. The hope is that by emphasizing its utility, this study encourages the broader adoption of ultrasound in clinical practice.

Authors: Kumar Rakesh , Mathur Aviral , Kumar Sunil , Gupta Nishkarsh , Kumar Neera G. , Gupta Ekta
Published: August 2024

Blind nasal intubation (BNI) has been around for over a century now. Many clinicians advocate it as an “old-is-gold” skill, which can be performed without any adjuncts in cases where visualization of larynx is a problem. Even today, BNI not only comes handy in resource-limited centers, it may also come to the rescue of airway managers in well-equipped centers. However, in the century since it was first described, there have been other major developments in the field of airway management and BNI as a skill has taken a backseat when it comes to a priority order. More so because it is limited by modalities to teach and train as most of the available manikins, which are otherwise phenomenal when it comes to imitating anatomy and overall attention to detail of a human airway, suffer terribly in one basic aspect needed to teach, train, and learn BNI—”they” cannot breathe! Attempts have been made to fabricate some manikins on these lines. But what if they can not only breathe but breathe out CO2 as well! We describe a simple method whereby we created a “CO2 breathing” manikin and tested it in an Airway Management Workshop with 105 participants, and then evaluated it under controlled conditions in 20 volunteers. We got very encouraging results and realized that our manikin makes the teaching and training of BNI very interesting and attractive by simulating the actual clinical scenario. We feel that it has the potential of reinventing the valuable skill of BNI.

Published: August 2024

Background and Aims:

The supraglottic airway devices (SADs) that allow direct (without an intermediary device like Aintree or airway exchange catheters) tracheal intubation can be invaluable for field use in conditions ideally managed by intubation. Whilst fiberscope-guided intubation is the method of choice, if these ‘direct-intubation’ SADs could provide high success rates for blind tracheal intubation, their scope of use can increase tremendously. Our study assesses intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA), i-gel and Ambu AuraGain for blind tracheal intubation in adults.

Material and Methods:

Ninety adults undergoing elective surgery were randomized into three equal groups. After induction of anesthesia, the group-specific SAD was inserted and on achieving adequate ventilation, blind tracheal intubation was attempted over two attempts. Success rates and time of achieving adequate device placement and tracheal intubation through these were evaluated. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 17.0 and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results:

All three devices could achieve adequate ventilation within two allowed attempts. Successful tracheal intubation rates were significantly better with ILMA than i-gel on first attempt (87% vs. 27%, P < 0.001) and after second attempt that was supplemented with optimization maneuvers (100% vs. 40%, P < 0.001). No patient could be intubated through Ambu AuraGain within two attempts. Time taken for successful tracheal intubation did not differ significantly (P = 0.205) with ILMA or i-gel.

Conclusion:

Out of ILMA, I-gel and Ambu AuraGain, ILMA is the best device for blind tracheal intubation in adults with normal airways.

Authors: Han Jonghee , Yoon Su Young , Seok Junepill , Lee Jin Young , Lee Jin Suk , Ye Jin Bong , Sul Younghoon , Kim Se Heon , Kim Hong Rye
Published: August 2024

Background: This study aimed to validate the Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS) for predicting mortality associated with trauma in older Korean adults and compare the GTOS with the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS).Methods: This study included patients aged ≥65 years who visited the Chungbuk National University Hospital Regional Trauma Center between January 2016 and December 2022. We used receiver operating characteristic curves and calibration plots to assess the discrimination and calibration of the scoring systems.Results: Among 3,053 patients, the median age was 77 years, and the mortality rate was 5.2%. The overall GTOS-predicted mortality and 1–TRISS were 5.4% (interquartile range [IQR], 3.7–9.5) and 4.7% (IQR, 4.7–4.7), respectively. The areas under the curves (AUCs) of 1–TRISS and GTOS for the total population were 0.763 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.719–0.806) and 0.794 (95% CI, 0.755–0.833), respectively. In the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) ≤12 group, the in-hospital mortality rate was 27.5% (79 deaths). The GTOS-predicted mortality and 1–TRISS in this group were 18.6% (IQR, 7.5–34.7) and 26.9% (IQR, 11.9–73.1), respectively. The AUCs of 1–TRISS and GTOS for the total population were 0.800 (95% CI, 0.776–0.854) and 0.744 (95% CI, 0.685–0.804), respectively.Conclusion: The GTOS and TRISS demonstrated comparable accuracy in predicting mortality, while the GTOS offered the advantage of simpler calculations. However, the GTOS tended to underestimate mortality in patients with GCS ≤12; thus, its application requires care in such cases.

More and more problems cannot be solved without collecting and processing data. Therefore, a data processing science called statistics is needed. There are several statistical abilities that an individual needs to have in order to help an individual in solving problems, one of which is statistical reasoning. A person's statistical reasoning can be seen from how a person solves problems. One of the things within a person that can influence the way a person solves problems is learning style. From these several things, it is suspected that there is a connection between learning style and a person's statistical reasoning. Therefore, researchers developed this research with the aim of finding out whether there is a relationship between learning styles and statistical reasoning. This research uses mixed methods, a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods.  The quantitative method used was the One-Way Anova test and the result was that Fratio < Critical F. So all visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles have the same influence on statistical reasoning. Meanwhile, the qualitative method also supports previous results that the statistical reasoning profiles of students with visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles are almost the same

Published: August 2024

Indonesia, an archipelagic country, boasts significant potential in the fisheries sector, notably in the export of fishery products. Batam as a free trade zone plays a major role in Indonesia's fishery product exports. According to the Central Statistics Agency's data, there has been a 2.47% decline in fish and shrimp exports in January and February 2023 compared to January 2022. Therefore, further analysis is needed on projected exports of fishery products in Batam. This study focuses on the utilization of the Markov chain model to analyze the export dynamics of Batam City's primary fishery product commodities, including Seaweed, Fish, Shrimp, Crab, and Shellfish. Monthly export data for Batam City's fishery products throughout 2021-2023 sourced from The Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. Based on these data, the transition probability matrix will be calculated based on the number of export transitions below and above the Moving Average (MA 12) value. The Markov chain model for this case is an erdogic Markov chain model, in order that the limiting probability of the Markov chain model can be determined. The result shows that exports of fish, shrimp and crab in the long term will exceed the average export size in the past year each after 7 months, 11 months, and 14 months later respectively, while exports of seaweed and shellfish in the long term will be below the large average exports in the past year after 15 and 5 months. This research result offer valuable insights for the government to formulate strategies and policies concerning fishery product exports

Diagenesis including cataclastic band development in the Permian Penrith Sandstone, Vale of Eden Basin, England
Authors: Pham Tuan Van , Parnell John ,   Hanoi University of Mining and Geology, Hanoi, Vietnam  University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB. .UE, UK
Published: August 2024

Diagenesis in the Penrith Sandstone is characterized by early hematite and mixed illite/smectite cementation, followed by burial compaction, feldspar and two episodes of quartz cementation. The primary quartz overgrowths are characterized by heterogenous luminescence; however, the secondary quartz overgrowths are characterized by thinner and darker luminescence. Cataclasis post-dates primary quartz cementation, and significantly reduces grain and pore aperture size. The apex of mercury volume for a deformed sample was reduced up to three times in comparison with the undeformed rock. Dissolution occurred during cataclasis as authigenic hematite was removed in deformation zones, improving pore aperture size and consequently enhancing sandstone porosity and permeability. Recent fracturing created fractured-pores and improved porosity and permeability in tight cataclastic samples. Evidence for syn-cataclastic dissolution is observed in the samples studied. This is indicated by the dissolution of authigenic feldspars and the enhancement of poroperm parameters adjacent to cataclastic zones and the absence of hematite cement within them. Based on those the sequence of diagenetic evolution in the Penrith Sandstone can be reconstructed. Host samples were characterized by good to very good poroperm values, varying between 20 and 24% porosity and from 809÷1445 mD permeability. Cataclastic core plugs have 13÷21% porosity and 0.12÷39 mD permeability. The porosity reduction by cataclasis was estimated to be as much as 4.5% on average. Fracturing and dissolution improved poroperm parameters in studied samples. Recently fractured core plugs have about 292 mD permeability on average. Dissolution-cataclastic samples have 32% porosity and 18 mD permeability, whereas dissolution-host samples have 31% porosity and maximum permeability as much as 2469 mD on average. Cataclasis occurred in combination with in situ significant reservoir dissolution and fracturing may improve a sandstone reservoir in excellent quality.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the potential roles of proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and apelin in the etiology of fibromyalgia syndrome (FS).

Patients and methods: The retrospective study was conducted between May 2022 and February 2023. Fifty-eight female FS patients (mean age: 45.2±9.9 years; range, 25 to 66 years) and 30 age- and body mass index-matched control subjects (mean age: 43.1±9.9 years; range, 26 to 67 years) were included in the study. Apelin and PCSK9 levels of all individuals were measured using appropriate methods.

Results: The levels of PCSK9 (173.2±62.2 vs. 75.1±44.1, p<0.001) and apelin (354.6±195.5 vs. 229.0±83.2, p<0.001) were significantly higher in patients with FS compared to the control group. A positive correlation was found between PCSK9 and apelin levels and various measures, including the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), Symptom Severity Scale (SSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Additionally, there was a positive correlation between apelin levels and FIQ, SSS, PSQI, Beck Anxiety Inventory, and BDI scores. The optimal cutoff value for PCSK9 in predicting FS was 110.0 ng/mL, with a sensitivity of 84.5% and specificity of 83.9% (area under the curve [AUC]=0.920, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.852-0.987, p<0.001). For apelin, the optimal cutoff value for predicting FS was 258.8 ng/L, with a sensitivity of 63.8% and specificity of 64.5% (AUC=0.732, 95% CI: 0.623–0.840, p<0.001).

Conclusion: Our findings suggest that PCSK9 may play a role in FS etiology and potentially contribute to oxidative stress. Increased apelin levels may be a compensatory response to high oxidative stress, possibly leading to hyperalgesia. Both PCSK9 and apelin can be predictive markers for FS.

Su, insan hayatının vazgeçilmezi olup yerleşim yerlerinde temiz suyun temini ve atık suyun uzaklaştırılması zorunlu ihtiyaçtır. Bu zorunlu ihtiyaç gelişen teknoloji ile birlikte farklı yöntemlerle karşılanmaktadır. Arşimet pompalar da su temini ve atık suyun uzaklaştırılmasında kullanılan en eski akım makineleridir. Bu çalışmada Klasik Arşimet Pompa’ya alternatif olarak geliştirilmiş olan Dış Çeperli Arşimet pompanın performansı ve kova doldurma performansı incelenmiştir. Tasarımı yapılan dış çeperli Arşimet pompanın basma yüksekliği 6 metre, basma açısı 30° olacak gerçek boyutlarının 1/20 ölçeği referans alınarak tasarlanmıştır. Tasarımın farklı basma açılarındaki performansını değerlendirmek için 20°, 30°, 40° basma açılarında analizler ve deneyler yapılmıştır. Hesaplama ile elde edilen kova hacimleri geometrik analiz ile elde edilen hacimlerinden %15 daha büyüktür. Ancak deneysel olarak elde edilen kova hacimleri hesaplama ile elde edilen hacimlerin azami %37’sine karşılık gelmektedir. Bu durum dış çeperli Arşimet pompa tasarımında memba tarafının suya batma miktarının kova doldurma oranını doğrudan etkilediğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca kova hacmi hesaplamalarında CAD modeli üzerinden yapılan hacimsel analizler Arşimet pompaların kova hacimlerini daha net bir şekilde hesaplayabilmektedir.

By utilizing SPK, decision makers can make more systematic decisions, based on a deeper understanding of the various alternatives available and relevant criteria. SPK or decision support system is a technique that has the ability to determine a decision using a technical design based on alternatives and predetermined criteria. SPK or decision support system is a technique that has the ability to determine a decision using a technical design based on alternatives and predetermined criteria. In the context of extracurricular school selection, combining the ROC (Rank Order Centroid) and MAUT (Multi-Attribute Utility Theory) methods in a Decision Support System is an interesting approach. The ROC method is used to cluster and rank schools based on certain criteria, while MAUT helps in the calculation of appropriate weights for these criteria. By integrating these two methods, the SPK can provide a more structured guideline in the selection of extracurricular activities that suit students' interests and needs. The research results obtained show that the Futsal alternative is the first recommendation as the best extracurricular with a final value of 0.655086.

The second expanded X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) cumulant of the crystalline silicon (Si) has been studied in the temperature-dependent. This is calculated in explicit forms using the anharmonic correlated Einstein (ACE) model developed from the correlated Einstein model based on the anharmonic effective potential and the quantum statistical theory. The numerical results of Si in the temperature range from 0 to 1200 K are in good agreement with those obtained by the other theoretical models and experiments at several temperatures. The analytical results show that the ACE model is suitable for analyzing the experimental EXAFS data of diamond cubics.
