Investigation of the Effect of the Regenerative Organic Rankine Cycle System on Decarbonization for a Bulk Carrier
Authors: GÜRGEN Samet , ALTIN İsmail
Published: June 2022

Shipping has a very important share in world trade. However, it has an inevitable effect on global greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, there is a great motivation for the reduction of fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Waste heat recovery systems based on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology have a significant potential to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. In this study, the optimization of the regenerative ORC was carried out for a bulk carrier. Multi-objective optimization was performed using a Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm that is a powerful and novel algorithm. Thermo-economic evaluations were carried out by considering the design and off-design working conditions of the ship. In addition, the impact of the optimized ORC system on decarbonization was investigated. The results showed that the annual average Wnet was determined as 372.78 kW. The annual average fuel saving and the annual average CO2 reduction were calculated as 522.83 tfuel/year and 1628.09 tCO2/year, recpectively. The findings indicated that using the RORC system on ships is a promising solution for increasing emission restrictions and environmental concerns.

Authors: Magalhães Costa Eliana Auxiliadora
Published: June 2022

Objetivo: Apresentar elementos teóricos acerca da transmissão do SARS-CoV-2 por meio das partículas respiratórias, para além do seu diâmetro aerodinâmico e trajetória balística, a subsidiar reflexões sobre a adequação do uso de máscaras pelos profissionais de saúde. Método: Ensaio acadêmico com o uso de dados de revisão narrativa da literatura. Resultados: Clarifica a confusão acerca dos termos gotículas, núcleos de gotículas, aerossóis e partículas, divergências que contribuem para entendimentos diferenciados sobre os mecanismos de transmissão desse agente etiológico, levando à adoçãode distintas medidas de intervenção para o controle do vírus. Apresenta dados da transmissibilidade do SARS-CoV-2 pelo ar, a despeito das dificuldades técnica e metodológica para a detecção desse agente em tal meio, situação que dificulta conclusões contundentes acerca da transmissão aérea do patógeno. Conclusão: Acredita-se ser um erro usar a falta de conclusões sobre a identificação do SARS-CoV-2 em amostras de ar para questionar a transmissão aérea e, igualmente, para recomendar medidas de prevenção segundo o tamanho aerodinâmico dos vírus. Assim, o uso da máscara N95 por profissionaisde saúde durante pandemia deve ser medida basilar e inequívoca para a proteção e a segurança dessa população.

Objective is to know social factor influencing maternal mortality rate. Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Gynae & Obstetrics at PUMHS Nawabshah Jan 2021 to 31 December 2021. Methodology: Pregnant women about 60, who came to hospital and unfortunately died due to pregnancy related complications, or who brought dead but died because of pregnancy and abortion, puerperium period at home included in this cross sectional study and know the impact of social factor playing in maternal mortality rate are studied. We studied for about 1year, how women's social status, education level and financial status and age at marriage, society can change maternal mortality rate. We found that because of the depriving status of women in society that ranges from not involving her at any level of her life’s decision making supplements her to easily fall prey to death during her vulnerable period. Results: Sixty patients died due to pregnancy, abortion and puerperium related complication had mean age of 26.4+-9.3years range (16 -45yrs). The most common preventable cause of maternal mortality in this group is bleeding including both antepartum hemorrhage and post-partum hemorrhage., (n=24,40%), followed by this preeclampsia and eclampsia responsible for (n=18,30%), while obstructed labour accounts about (n=6,10%) and remaining died due to other causes (n=12, 20%) like infection, embolism etc. Factors that exaggerate these deaths include poverty. It was found that (n=30, 50%) women died, only one member earning an unstable job having responsibility of at least 7- 8 family members and monthly income is below 20000 rupees. Another major social factor is education as the majority of women have no formal education (n=36, 60%), so usually they are doing house work without any other paid chores. Many women are married at an early age (n=4, 6%) are teenagers, women didn't receive antenatal care during their pregnancy (n=40,65%). Many women had 4kids before this pregnancy (n=25, 42%). Conclusion: Social economic status of women and her husband can decrease or increase women chance of death to die during pregnancy, abortion and puerperium time. If these factors are addressed, we will reach the SDG. Keywords: Maternal mortality rate, Puerperium, Sustained development goals.

Published: June 2022

Appendectomy remains the most frequently performed emergency abdominal surgical procedure.1,2 The lifetime risk of acute appendicitis for men and women is 8.6% and 6.7%, respectively. Diagnosis of acute appendicitis is made primarily on the basis of the history and the clinical examination. However, histopathologic studies help in diagnosis of acute appendicitis.3 Approximately 20% of patients, those undergoing appendectomy are found not to have acute appendicitis at surgery,86.3% specimens revealed findings of acute appendicitis, 10.8% were normal, while 3% has tuberculosis, 1.5% had Meckle diverticulitis and 0.6% each of adenocarcinoma and Carcinoid tumour. The rationale of study is to find out the burden of different histological findings especially tuberculosis in appendix specimen and compare them with international data. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the frequency if acute appendicitis, normal appendix and tuberculosis in patients undergoing appendectomy based on histological findings. Study Design: Randomised Control trial (RCT). Setting: Holy Family Hospital Rawalpindi in Surgical Unit-I. Six months, from August 2009 to January 2010. Methods: 98 patients who present in emergency department with signs and symptoms of acute appendicitis were randomly allocated into two groups for open (OA) and laproscopic appendectomy (LA). Data on these two groups was collected and analyzed for operative time and postoperative pain. Results: 98 patients were included in he study (49 patients in each group).Out of 98 there were 37 male and 61 female, respectively. In OA group 18% were male patients and 31% female patients. However in LA group, 19% were male and 30% female patients. The mean age in OA group is 20.18+7.56, and in LA group is 22.24+6.96.The mean operative time in OA group is 33.84 +13.20 in LA group is 37.67+ 11.07.Postoperative pain assessed after 4hours in both groups (visual analogue scale),patients in LA group experienced less postoperative as compare to OA group. Mean VAS in OA group is 7.08 +1.93 in LA group is 3.84+ 1.84 which is statistically significant(p<0.05). Conclusion: Laparoscopic appendectomy is better than open appendectomy for treatment of acute appendicitis in terms of post-operative pain but operative time is same in both of the approaches. Keywords: Laproscopic appendectomy, open appendectomy ,operative time, post-operative pain.

Duration of Study: 10th February, 2021 to 09th August, 2021 Study Design: Descriptive study Methodology: All 82 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included in this study. All hysterectomies were performed after 24 week of gestation. We retrieved the proforma of all cases and emergency obstetric hysterectomy was done. The data were entered and analyzed in SPSS v25.0. Data were stratified for age, parity, socio-economic status, gravida, type of delivery, education status, booking status, BMI, booking status, diabetes mellitus (FBS >126mg/dl) and hypertension (BP >140/90mmHg) to address the effect modifiers. Chi-square test was used post-stratification with a p-value ≤0.05 considered as significant. Results: Total 82 pregnant women of 20-45 years of age having gestational age ≥24 weeks were selected for this study. Mean age of the patients was 31.95±8.06 year. Among 82 women who underwent cesarean section or vaginal delivery, 4 (4.9%) had emergency obstetric hysterectomy. Conclusion: Emergency obstetric hysterectomy is a necessary evil in obstetrics. Although it curtails the future child bearing potential of the woman, in many cases it saves the life of the mother. Most of its morbidity is attributable to its indications and underlying disorders rather than to the procedure itself. Keywords: Emergency Obstetric Hysterectomy, C-section, Vaginal Delivery.

Introduction: Myoclonic-astatic epilepsy of early childhood (MAE)/Doose syndrome (DS) is an infrequent entity causing myoclonic-astatic seizures.

Case Report: A 2-year-old male child presenting with history of seizures from one year, inability to speak and choreiform movements. He had isolated speech delay with other quadrants being normal (speaks monosyllables at two years). Parents noticed brief jerky movements of both upper and lower limbs with increasing intensity over 2–3 months which became a daily occurrence. Also, the child had episodes of abrupt loss of contact with surroundings and prolonged staring (3–5 minutes) and few eye blinks. Subsequently, by 1.5 years, he started having episodes of sudden forward bending of head followed by frequent falls. Jerks either preceded or followed falls. Decreased attention and hyperactivity had started by one year of the illness. Electroencephalography depicted polysharp waves with maximum voltage of 180 μV and 3–4 Hz@ an interval of 20–30 seconds bilaterally. He responded to oral sodium valproate, levetiracetam, and ketogenic diet.

Conclusion: We report a 2-year-old male child with Doose syndrome, a distinct yet rare entity.
Economic Recovery Efforts: Boosting East Java’s Export Performance Through Mapping The Competitiveness of Commodities
Authors: Priyatna M. Fahmi , Andini Sonia Anggun
Published: June 2022

As an effort to encourage the export performance of East Java, concrete and comprehensive information and mapping are needed regarding the level of competitiveness of export commodities and their future prospects. This is necessary so that policy makers can devise the right strategy in each category of commodity competitiveness. To map the competitiveness of commodities and their prospects in the future, this study uses a combined technique of Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) and Constant Market Share Analysis (CMSA). RCA demonstrates static competitiveness at one time period (2020), while CMSA represents dynamic competitiveness in two time periods (2016 and 2020). With the merger of these two methods, East Java export commodities are divided into four categories, namely great amounting to 426 commodities, sunset amounting to 426 commodities, sunrise amounting to 649 commodities, and poor amounting to 919 commodities. The optimization of the four categories can be divided into two major parts of international cooperation, there are through the expansion of trade exports for the great and sunrise categories, as well as efforts to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) for the sunset and poor categories.
Determinant of Formal Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneur Transition During Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Tasmilah
Published: June 2022

Entrepreneurship in East Java is dominated by informal entrepreneurs. To increase productivity and absorption of formal workers, a transition from informal entrepreneurs to formal entrepreneurs is needed. Using Sakernas August 2020 data, this study aims to analyze the determinants of formal entrepreneurship in East Java. In addition, using Sakernas panel data in August 2019 and 2020, we investigate the entrepreneurial transition in one year. The results of the binomial logistic regression show that male gender, higher education level, entrepreneurial skills, and use of digital technology such as the internet have a greater tendency to become formal entrepreneurs in East Java. Similarly, formal entrepreneurs who use the digital technology have less chance of turning into informal entrepreneurs during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Authors: Adi Rakhmawan Suryo
Published: June 2022

How many workers in East Java can do their work from home? Is working from home supported by sufficient infrastructure and knowledge? What about workers who cannot do their jobs from home? What are their risks to the economic and health impacts of working outside the home? Then, where should policies be taken to reduce the effects of COVID-19 on the economy, especially the workforce? This study tries to provide answers to some of these questions by analyzing the 2021 National Labor Force Survey data and other secondary data. With the main analytical methods in the form of factor analysis, cluster analysis, and binary logistic regression, this study resulted in the classification of people working with WFH and non-WFH in East Java along with their characteristics in the form of digital needs, income, education, and risk of COVID-19 exposure. Another finding from this study is that people who work with non-WFH, female workers, youth, and low education have a greater tendency to be affected by COVID-19 in their economic activities.

Ancient Khorezm in the era of the Early Iron age. (Models of the formation of the socio-economic structure of ancient societies on the territory of the Southern Aral Sea region according to the archeological data)
Authors: Bolelov S. B.
Published: June 2022

This article examines the early period of the formation of agricultural civilization on the territory of the ancient delta of the Amu Darya river in the southern Aral Sea region - Ancient Khorezm. The basic problem, that has remained debatable for many years, is the time of the initial stage of the ancient agricultural culture formation and urbanization on the territory of Khoresm. Besides until the recent time the role of autochtonous polulation on the lower reaches of the Amu Darya in these processes is not so clear, as well as the degree of the influence of agricultural cultures of the south of the Middle Asia on them. Based on archaeological sources in the era of the early Iron Age of Khorezm – VII-V centuries BC, two stages are singled out. The early - Sako-Kuyusai stage, VII- early VI BC was the beginning of the permanent flooding of the Near-Kamysh delta on the territory of the Left Bank of the Amu Darya, as a result of the interaction of two groups of pastoralists, different in origin and in the way of farming; a fairly stable paleoeconomical system is being formed, the basis of which was mainly pasture cattle breeding and primitive hoe farming. Community handicraft production functioned in stationary settlements of settled cattle breeders (Kuyusai culture). The second stage is the archaic period of the history of Khorezm (VI-V centuries BC) is characterized by the introduction of advanced technologies (irrigation, construction, pottery) that appeared on the territory of the southern Aral Sea region as a result of a powerful cultural impulse from the southern ancient agricultural regions of Central Asia. During this period, the paleoeconomical system of the historical and cultural region is radically changing; agriculture there, based on artificial irrigation, becomes dominant. At the same time, it should be emphasized that these changes are not related to the change of population. The Khorezm agricultural culture in the period of the RSVC-II was born as a result of the interaction of the autochthonous, mainly pastoral, Sako- Kuyusai population of the Near-Kama region and groups of farmers and artisans, natives of the ancient agricultural regions of the south of Central Asia.

Kang Yuwei on the origins of Western Civilisation
Authors: Martynov D. E.
Published: June 2022

The article is devoted to the research in the shaping of concept of civilizational development made by the prominent Chinese philosopher Kang Youwei (1858-1927). The vision of Western civilization from the point of view of a Confucian thinker is considered on the basis of the material “Travels to Italy” (1904). Kang Youwei argued that Unity is the basic law of history. From Kang’s point of view, the Roman Empire was an example of a state, which was founded according to the laws of the evolutionary development of nature and society. 19th century Italy was seen as a young state that which had not yet overcome the consequences of the “birth trauma”. Shaping his views within the Sino centric paradigm, Kang Youwei considered the world civilization as a single evolutionary process of ascending from barbarism to the heights of culture, respectively, the positive experience of the West can be used to correct China’s shortcomings and return a high political and geostrategic status to the country.

Published: June 2022

This article is devoted to topical trends in the evolution of civilizations in XXI century. It is shown that the network processes of versatile and multi-layered anthropic exchange lay at the basis of the civilizations phenomenon which form both the world civilization and its local manifestations. It is also demonstrated that social cultural matrix (invariant, homeoresis), comprising in its turn several encoding layers and elements, is acting as the central factor in this process. Decoding of the encoding layers of different civilizational kernels allowed us to create a picture of the world evolutional wave movement in XXI century, which is shown in the article. This article provides the viewing of anthropic vector of this wave , when we have the cyclical turn from the West to the North, with the regulating civilizational chain of the Middle. The data of these chart in combination with the other sections of the article may be useful in the research of the current Big anthropological transition in XX-XXI centuries.

Authors: Pinto Danieli , Damian Ieda Pelogia Martins
Published: June 2022

Introdução: O compartilhamento é um dos mais importantes processos da gestão do conhecimento, uma vez que o conhecimento está na mente das pessoas e deve ser externalizado para poder ser utilizado por outras pessoas e gerar valor. É por meio deste processo que o conhecimento é convertido de tácito para explícito. Ter um ambiente organizacional adequado é fundamental para que os processos da gestão do conhecimento sejam realizados de forma efetiva. Diante do exposto, o objetivo deste trabalho é verificar como o processo de compartilhamento do conhecimento se relaciona com o ambiente da indústria de software. Método: A escolha por organizações deste setor se dá em virtude de serem intensivas em conhecimento. Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica na base de dados Google Scholar a fim de buscar artigos publicados em periódicos científicos, teses e dissertações sobre o assunto entre os anos de 2015 e 2020. Resultados: A pesquisa resultou em 10 trabalhos que evidenciaram o compartilhamento do conhecimento na indústria de software, no entanto, não foi constatado nestes trabalhos uma discussão voltada exclusivamente para o ambiente no qual o conhecimento é compartilhado. Conclusão: Verificou-se que um ambiente, físico ou virtual, adequado ao compartilhamento do conhecimento na indústria de software, deve ser criado com a finalidade de impulsionar a criatividade, a inovação e a aprendizagem nesses ambientes.
