Published: December 2023

This paper presents a remote controlled mobile robot with a camera and alarm system for patients having contagious disease and elderly patients. A mobile robot can serve patients having contagious disease in hospitals by dispensing the medications at prescribed time. Today's hospitals and nursing homes must provide care for a large number of patients with a little staffthat finds it challenging to dispense correct dose of medicines at prescribed time without touching the patients having contagious diseases&also for the elderlypatients who forget to take medicines at prescribed time. If the nurse dispenses medicines to the patients with contagious diseases have chance for spreading of viruses, and also if the elderly patientswho are not taking medicines at prescribed time may lead to severe health issues. In order to avoid these issues, nurses use a remote controlled mobile robot with a camera and alarm system which can dispense the medicines at prescribed time. In this proposed work, two systems are developed: one as time reminder to the nurse and another is a dispenser robot with camera. In the reminder system,duty nurse will set the time prescribed by the doctor on daily basis. When the alarm goes ON at a prescribed time, the staff nurse will send the medication to the patient's room through a mobile robot with camera. Once the nurse switched ON the robot, it starts capturing and sending the video on its path to the mobile phone of nurse through Wi-Fi continuously. Thus the nurse can observe and monitor the patient taking the medicine while sitting in his or her office using a mobile phone. The suggested two systems can dispense medicines to the patients having contagious diseases without spreading virus to the nurse and it also avoids any health issues to the elderly patientsby dispensing the correct dosage of medications at the prescribed time.

Published: December 2023

This paper is intended to investigate numerically and experimentally the influence of raster angle on the structural performance of an optimised printed structure.The topology optimisation (TO) problem for compliance minimisation using Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization (SIMP) method has been solved with a Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm (MBB) beam under three-point bending, then the resulting optimal design was additively manufactured using Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) with varying raster angle. The mechanical behaviour of these geometries was investigated and compared. A numerical approach has been developed through a script in Python based on the G-code file and integrated into an ABAQUS to create a virtual sample identical to the physical specimen. The numerical results were coupled with an experimental investigation.The investigation presented in this work showed that the choice of raster significantly affects on the mechanical performance of the printed optimised structures. Indeed, the optimised structure printed with a 90 raster angle has the highest performance in contrast to 45 and 0, while the optimised structure printed at a 45 raster angle has an average performance. The experimental test validated the numerical data with an error of approximately 1.09%. Our numerical results are in good conformity with the experimental outcomes.In this research, we studied the impact of three raster angles (90, 45 and 0) on the mechanical behaviour of a FFF optimised part. The subsequent study will focus on the other print parameters, including the other raster angles.The analysis presented in this paper can be used for manufacturing a FFF optimised structure.This paper evaluates the effect of raster angle in printed optimised structures using a novel numerical approach. The presented results will establish a reference that many researchers can gear to develop the fabrication of TO structures by incorporating printing parameters.

Published: December 2023

An experiment was conducted to improve the immunity and egg production of stressed laying birds by organic chromium supplementation for 6 weeks. Birds (5,000 White Leghorn chicken, BV 300 strain) were divided into 5 groups (T1 to T5) having 10 replicates in each group and each replicate having 100 birds with an initial age of 33 weeks. The experimental groups are as follows: T1 is control unaffected by Newcastle disease (ND); all other groups (T2 to T5) were affected by ND and recovering from the disease. T2 is not supplemented with chromium source. T3, T4 and T5 were supplemented with chromium chloride, chromium yeast and chromium picolinate @ 300 ppb, respectively. The results revealed that weekly average egg production was significantly high in T1 followed by T4 during first week of supplementation and increased further. The feed intake was similar in all groups except control group. The mean HI titre for NDV was significantly higher in T4 followed by T5 and least in T2 and T3 during first week of vaccination. The titre was reached at the level of unaffected highly immune bird by second week in T4. Organic chromium supplementation (T4 and T5) reduced the mortality significantly in laying birds. The return on investment was high in chromium yeast (8.28) than the chromium picolinate (5.43). Supplementation of organic chromium to disease stressed laying birds increases egg production and HI titre and it could be useful feeding strategies during biotic stress condition.

Authors: BHARTI P K , KAMBOJ K M , KUMAR PRADEEP
Published: December 2023

Newly born crossbred calves (24) of either sex were selected and equally distributed into control, Treatment- 1(T-1) and Treatment-2 (T-2) groups for evaluating the effect of feeding milk replacer on their health performances. Control group received whole milk and skim milk as per the institute feeding schedule, whereas the T-1 and T-2 groups were fed on whole milk and milk replacer, respectively at the constant rate 1/10th of their body weight for first three months of age. The overall average daily gain in T-1 showed significantly higher average daily gain than control and T-2. Health of calves was evaluated in terms of number of calves days in diarrhoea and their fecal consistency scores (FCS). The values of FCS were significantly higher in T-2 than T-1 and control indicating that calves in milk replacer group had higher incidences of diarrhoea than other 2 groups fed on whole milk. No any major health problems or mortality were observed during the study in any of the groups. From the present study it was concluded that in spite of slightly higher incidences of digestive problems in calves during the winter months, milk replacer feeding could be a better option for commercial dairy producers and resource poor farmers in order to save the whole milk for human consumption.

The present study was conducted to evaluate the influence of nucleotide on performance values and slaughter traits in broiler chicks. The experimental diets consisted of T1 control (without nucleotide), diets T2, T3, T4 and T5 were control plus nucleotide @ 0.08% of diet for 7, 14, 28 and 42 days, respectively. Birds fed nucleotide showed significant elevation in body weight as compared to control and being highest in T4. Feed intake of birds fed nucleotide was higher than control group. Birds fed nucleotide have improved FCR in comparison with control and was recorded best in T3. No significant difference was obtained among the groups in Ca and P balance, however, a significant increase in N intake and balance was recorded in T5 as compared to other groups. Dressing percentage significantly increased in nucleotide supplemented groups as compared to control and being highest in T4. No significant difference was noticed in heart, gizzard, proventriculus, wing, back and neck and giblet percentage between treatment and control. Per cent intestinal weight drastically reduced in all treatment groups as compared to control. Results indicated that nucleotide has positive effects on performance and slaughter traits in broiler chicks.
IMPACT OF MSPO CERTIFICATION ON PROFIT AMONG PALM OIL GROWERS IN MALAYSIA
Authors:   Universiti Putra Malaysia, LIM FABIAN CHIN WEN , SHARIFUDDIN JUWAIDAH , SINDEN ANN
Published: December 2023

Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) certification is a regulatory requirement for all oil palm growers and processing facilities in Malaysia. However, unlike the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), MSPO does not offer any monetary benefits. Growers have concerns about the increased costs of implementing MSPO. The objective of this research was to identify whether there was a cost increase in terms of overall cost per tonne of oil palm bunch, cost per area, and any changes in production. Similar methods to those used in numerous articles on RSPO were employed, utilising the Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) Framework coupled with a questionnaire to collect data. The data were then analysed using a paired t-test. Samples were collected from MSPO-certified estates with the assistance of the Incorporated Society of Planters (ISP) and Malaysian Estate Owners’ Association (MEOA) network. While we initially aimed to collect 72 samples, we managed to obtain 76 respondents. The findings revealed a significant cost increase per tonne of oil palm bunch, as well as an increase in cost per area after the estates adopted MSPO. However, there was also a significant recorded increase in yield production. When compared to current data, the yield increase, coupled with the oil palm price from the previous year, could not justify the increase in cost and resulted in lower profits. It would be ideal for MSPO-certified estates to obtain RSPO certification to increase their revenue, as RSPO has an impact on the selling price of the oil palm. It is recommended that future studies include an in-depth analysis to gain a more holistic and detailed understanding of the impact of sustainability certification on oil palm plantations. Furthermore, a separate study focusing solely on smallholders would be beneficial as it may reveal a different picture. Keywords: MSPO, RSPO, sustainability, oil palm.

Authors: Widi Widagdo Pri Wicaksono  , Markus Suryoutomo
Published: December 2023

Pemberi Sewa yang mengalami kepailitan menimbulkan masalah serius bagi Penyewa, karena harta kekayaan, termasuk objek sewa, berada di bawah pengurusan dan pemberesan kurator setelah debitor pailit. Permasalahan utama adalah keabsahan Perjanjian Sewa Menyewa yang telah dibuat sebelum kepailitan. Mahkamah Agung memberikan putusan berbeda, di mana pada Nomor 658 K/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2014, Penyewa diizinkan memanfaatkan objek sewa hingga perjanjian berakhir, namun putusan terbalik terjadi pada Nomor 78 PK/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2015 yang menetapkan bahwa kurator memiliki kewenangan dalam pemberhentian dan perpanjangan perjanjian. Perlindungan hukum untuk Penyewa yang dirugikan perlu dipertimbangkan setelah Pemberi Sewa dinyatakan pailit. Penelitian menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan mengacu pada data sekunder, primer, dan tersier, serta pendekatan studi pustaka dan analisis kualitatif. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengkaji keabsahan perjanjian sewa-menyewa setelah kepailitan Pemberi Sewa, menganalisis pertimbangan hakim dalam penyelesaian sewa menyewa pasca-kepailitan, dan menilai perlindungan hukum bagi Penyewa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kepailitan Pemberi Sewa mengakibatkan syarat subjektif perjanjian tidak terpenuhi, memungkinkan pembatalan perjanjian. Perbedaan putusan Mahkamah Agung menimbulkan ketidakpastian hukum, namun Perlindungan Hukum kepada Penyewa tetap ada berdasarkan Undang-Undang No 37 Tahun 2004 tentang Kepailitan dan PKPU. Mereka diakui sebagai Kreditur Konkuren dengan hak pendaftaran tagihan dan keistimewaan tertentu, tanpa terikat jangka waktu pendaftaran tagihan secara umum.

A Study on the Resolution of Digital Alienation for the Security and Safety of the Elderly
Authors:   The Korean Society of Private Security, Lim Sung Eun
Published: December 2023

The security and safety of the elderly are closely related to the safety of society as a whole. As the elderly population increases, digital development is emerging as a social problem along with safety issues such as crime, abuse, and disappearance of the elderly. Digital technology, which has developed rapidly around the world, has created a digital environment that enables consumption, work, life, medical care, and education anywhere, transcending space and time. The 2000s was a time when Korea entered an aging society, and the increase in the elderly population due to aging increased the problem of digital inequality and digital alienation due to new social inequality called digital gap.
The increase in the elderly population is facing daily life such as social isolation and alienation, social discomfort, depression, and dementia due to weak information power of the elderly, such as elderly safety, elderly poverty, elderly suicide, elderly crime, and digital financial accidents. Digital alienation is directly related to the safety of the elderly population and is likely to be easily exposed to new threats such as security, voice phishing, anxiety caused by fake news, Internet commerce, financial fraud, and cybercrime due to the increase in smishing.
Therefore, economic, social, and emotional support for the elderly is needed for the security and safety of the elderly. In the future, efforts to improve awareness of the problem of digital alienation of the elderly in Korea should be made by forming a full social consensus among members of society based on the use of the elderly population and support from the government and the private sector.

Published: December 2023

Pierre Bourdieu, toplumsal yaşamdaki olguları açıklamak için habitus, alan, sermaye gibi bazı kavramlara değinmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Bourdieu’nün toplumsal yaşam için kullandığı kavramların sosyal medya üzerindeki iz düşümleri, bireysel ve toplumsal kanaatlerin biçimlenmesinde belirleyici bir platform olduğu düşünülen Twitter özelinde incelenmiştir. Twitter’ın algoritmalar yardımıyla bireylerin eğilimlerini yönlendirme ve pekiştirme konusundaki yansıması, aşı tartışmaları üzerinden irdelenmiştir. Bu noktada başta, Bourdieu’nün kullandığı habitus kavramıyla, Twitter’daki algoritmalar ve filtre baloncuklarının insanlar üzerinde benzer tesirlere sebep olduğu çıkarımından faydalanılmıştır. Böylece olumlamacı perspektiften yapılan yorumlarda çok sesli olarak addedilen sosyal medyanın, bilfiil yaşamdaki fikirlerin şekillenme sürecindeki rolü sorgulanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Twitter'ın iddia edildiği gibi çok sesliliği sağlayıp sağlamadığı veya algoritmaların ve doğrulama yanlılığının etkisiyle farklı görüşlerin duyulmasını engelleyip engellemediğini anlamaya çalışmaktır. Araştırmada, Twitter kullanıcılarının deneyimlerini ölçümlemek ve bireysel kanaatlerin oluşumundaki sosyo-kültürel durumu yakından analiz etmek için yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniğinden faydalanılarak; betimsel bir analiz yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Sosyal medya platformlarının algoritmalar, filtre baloncuklarından oluşan doğası gereği, kullanıcıları çok seslilikten ziyade, kendi çevreleriyle kısıtlamaya sürüklediği ve bunun da bireylerin hâlihazırdaki fikirlerinin daha da pekişmesine ve çevrelerinin tekdüze kanaatlerle kuşatılmasına sebep olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are voluntary, employee-led groups that engage in activities designed to foster a diverse, equitable, inclusive, accessible, and just (DEIAJ) workplace within the organizations they serve. ERGs have become increasingly relevant, helping to promote a sense of belonging among groups who identify along a variety of marginalized identities. Effective ERGs help leadership gain critical insights into the challenges certain groups face, assisting with retention and employee engagement. ERGs create safe spaces for members to speak truths and offer a collective voice around shared interests as well as a place to hone professional skills. Leveraging ERGs can help agencies achieve the DEIAJ goals mandated in several US Presidential Executive Orders (E.O. 13985, 2021; E.O. 14035, 2021). NOAA plays a critical role in influencing scientific communities and provides a unique opportunity to highlight actionable steps to enhance DEIAJ in these important spaces. NOAA is home to over 10 outstanding, award-winning ERGs. This article highlights successful aspects of NOAA’s ERGs and how various features may translate to other institutions and agencies seeking to improve DEIAJ in the workplace.

In the highly competitive construction industry, management optimisation can give a project a competitive advantage. Project management optimisation can improve the project quality, and ensures that resources are used efficiently and that the project stays within budget. One strategy to optimise project management performance is through the implementation of digital supply chain management (DSCM). DSCM leverages technology to streamline processes and increase collaboration among stakeholders, and it can improve the gap between each stage in the project life cycle, resulting in improved efficiency and effectiveness. In this paper, a literature review on the central issues affecting the construction supply chain and the potential of utilising digital tools in the construction industry is performed. The study demonstrates that the application of DSCM creates value by providing a flexible digital environment that can evaluate policies, mitigate bottlenecks, quote more accurate lead times, and forecast and mitigate disturbances.

The identification and management of value demands of stakeholders who fulfil their social responsibility is the key to improving the governance effects of megaprojects. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyse the value demands of key stakeholders who fulfil social responsibility in megaprojects and their network relationships to construct a value map. A total of 214 articles were extracted from the Web of Science and Scopus databases through a comprehensive exploratory literature search. Through screening and extending, 49 articles were collated as target literature for analysis. Value demand of stakeholders in megaprojects social responsibility is identified. The value map shows that multiple value demands can coexist based on the network relationships between stakeholders and tend to benefit balance. The generation and realization of value demands are largely affected by the network relationships. The multiple, reciprocal, iterative and fluid relation among network relationships and value demands further bring about dynamic evolution in the entire value map. This study helps participants perceive the value demands of each party and the network relationship among them in megaprojects. The value map provides guidance for the rational allocation and effective motivation of social responsibility in practice.

Introducción: El cáncer gástrico y de la unión gastroesofágica (UGE) componen una enfermedad con alta tasa de mortalidad, aun en estadios tempranos. La combinación de cirugía con tratamiento sistémico perioperatorio con esquema FLOT, basado en fluoropirimidinas, oxaliplatino y docetaxel, se ha convertido en el estándar de cuidado para pacientes con adenocarcinomas de la UGE y estómago resecables. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la eficacia y seguridad de FLOT perioperatorio en pacientes con cáncer gástrico y UGE no metastásico en un hospital de Argentina.
Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo observacional llevado a cabo en el Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires. Se incluyeron pacientes con diagnóstico de adenocarcinoma gástrico y UGE resecables que recibieron FLOT como terapia perioperatoria entre 2018 y 2022.
Resultados: Se incluyeron un total de 34 pacientes. La edad mediana al diagnóstico fue 59 años (RIC 52-69). Once pacientes (32%) tuvieron patrón de células en anillo de sello y 7 (21%) sobreexpresaban HER2. Se constató una tasa de respuesta objetiva (ORR) por imágenes de 82% en pacientes que realizaron terapia neoadyuvante. El 30% de los pacientes no completó los 8 ciclos de FLOT planificados, 5 (15%) no realizaron adyuvancia y 4 (12%) no procedieron con la cirugía por progresión. La respuesta patológica completa (pCR) fue de 12.5% (4 pacientes). El 55% de los pacientes tuvieron demora en al menos un ciclo de tratamiento por toxicidad hematológica. Un paciente murió por neutropenia febril. Con una mediana de seguimiento de 25 meses, 20 pacientes (59%) recayeron, con una mediana de tiempo a la recaída de 16 meses. Durante el seguimiento, 12 pacientes murieron, la mediana de sobrevida no fue alcanzada.

Conclusiones: El régimen perioperatorio FLOT tuvo mayor toxicidad y fue menos tolerado que lo reportado en otras series. Esto se tradujo en resultados clínicos desfavorables en nuestra cohorte. Este estudio de real-world demostró la baja compliance de regímenes de poliquimioterapia en pacientes con cáncer gástrico temprano y respaldan la necesidad de futuras investigaciones para mejorar los resultados en esta población de pacientes.
Prevención de accidentes laborales con citostáticos
Authors: Faiad Sebastián L.
Published: December 2023

Los citostáticos se utilizan en el tratamiento del cáncer, por su efectividad como inhibidores en el desarrollo de las neoplasias. Como contrapartida, tienen niveles de toxicidad significativos, lo que los torna medicamentos muy agresivos, tanto para los pacientes como para los profesionales de la salud que los manipulan y administran.

Este trabajo tiene como propósito ofrecer una descripción detallada de los riesgos a los que se expone el personal sanitario que está en contacto permanente con estos fármacos, como así también ofrecer una mirada sobre las medidas preventivas disponibles.

No se debe perder de vista que la exposición a estos medicamentos entraña un riesgo significativo para la salud, ya sea por la contaminación de las superficies o por contacto accidental con ellos. La exposición a estos fármacos puede ocurrir en diferentes momentos, que incluyen desde la manufactura, la distribución y la administración a los pacientes, hasta la eliminación de los residuos.

El aporte de la medicina del trabajo resulta de vital importancia para la prevención del riesgo laboral, al ofrecer un marco adecuado para la reducción de los factores de riesgo.
Sarcopenia en pacientes con cáncer de próstata castración resistente

Published: December 2023

Introducción: La sarcopenia (SP) es un síndrome geriátrico que se caracteriza por la pérdida gradual de masa muscular y fragilidad en los ancianos. La SP afecta los resultados perioperatorios y oncológicos en pacientes con diferentes neoplasias urológicas. Sin embargo, el uso de la SP previa al tratamiento como predictor de resultados clínicos en pacientes con cáncer de próstata (CP) aún está poco estudiado. El CP y su tratamiento pueden inducir atrofia muscular, condición asociada a alteraciones nutricionales y metabólicas, deterioro físico, mala calidad de vida, menor tolerancia a los tratamientos y menor supervivencia. Por lo antes dicho se estudió la sarcopenia preexistente y/o el desarrollo de sarcopenia y el impacto en la supervivencia en una población de CP castración resistente (CR).
Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo en pacientes argentinos de un único centro con cáncer de próstata castración resistente (CPCR). La masa muscular inicial se calculó mediante Psoas Muscle Index (PMI) midiendo el área transversal del músculo psoas en TC multicorte, en la parte inferior de la tercera vértebra lumbar y se comparó con un escaneo de 3 meses y 6 meses para calcular la cintura muscular. Se definió SP como PMI < 5.7 cm2/m2 de PMI inicial y a los 3 meses. Se incluyeron pacientes con CPCR con seguimiento en el instituto en el periodo de 2018 a 2021.
Resultados: De los 1457 pacientes con diagnóstico de CPCR, se identificaron 34 que cumplieron los criterios de inclusión. De los pacientes incluidos 12 (35.3%) presentaron SP y la mantuvo en los controles de 3 y 6 meses. Solo uno presento mejoría del PMI dado que recibió terapia bipolar androgénica. El tiempo mediano hasta la CR fue de 2.3 años (r:0.8-8.1). De estos, el 50% (6) debutó con CP M1 de novo, score de Gleason (GL) 8 en 6 pacientes (50%) GL 9 en 4 pacientes (33.4%) y GL ???? 7 en 2 (16.6%), con una mediana de PSA 40.7 ng/dl (r: 12.6-132), y una mediana de índice de masa corporal de 26.4 (r:22-32.8). La mediana de supervivencia global fue de 2.2 años desde el diagnóstico de CR. Sin diferencias entre la presencia o no de SP (p=0.62).

Conclusiones: Si bien la SP es un factor de mal pronóstico en CPCR, en el presente estudio, por sus características retrospectivas, no se pudo determinar la asociación de SP y menor supervivencia global. Teniendo en cuenta los parámetros clínicos de los pacientes con SP, se deberían recomendar actividades para prevenir SP.
(Des)interesse feminino pelo DIU na APS

Introdução: Diante da presença das mulheres no mercado de trabalho e nas universidades e da consequente postergação da maternidade, o uso de métodos contraceptivos que lhes garantam autonomia, segurança e liberdade é essencial para a manutenção de seu papel de crescente destaque na sociedade. Estudos demonstram que as informações a respeito do dispositivo intrauterino (DIU) ainda não alcançam a população efetivamente, de modo que a decisão pela utilização do método ainda é permeada por insegurança e desinteresse. Métodos: Trata- se de um estudo piloto que utilizou como técnica de coleta de dados a aplicação de questionário, de elaboração própria, a 12 usuárias de uma Unidade de Atenção Primária à Saúde em Araturi, Caucaia, Ceará, localizada na região metropolitana de Fortaleza. Os dados coletados foram comparados com o levantamento bibliográfico realizado acerca dos aspectos que podem interferir no interesse das mulheres pelo DIU como método contraceptivo. Resultados: Entre as 12 mulheres do estudo, o método contraceptivo mais utilizado foi condom; nenhuma fazia uso de DIU. Apesar de 83% delas manifestarem conhecimento e interesse pelo DIU, 60% afirmaram nunca ter recebido explicações sobre o método por algum profissional de saúde. Medo, falta de informação e dificuldade de acesso foram as barreiras impeditivas à escolha pelo DIU mais comumente citadas. Conclusões: Atividades de educação em saúde realizadas de forma oportuna pelos profissionais de saúde têm o potencial de reduzir as barreiras mais comuns à escolha pelo DIU e podem refletir de forma positiva na garantia dos direitos reprodutivo e sexual das mulheres.
Encanto
Authors: Pessoa Bruno Henrique Soares , Pessoa Eneline de Andrade Heráclio Gouveia , Silva Magda Pozzobon
Published: December 2023

Encanto é uma animação de 2021 dos estúdios Disney. Retrata a história de uma família multigeracional que divide o mesmo domicílio, habitante de uma aldeia nas montanhas da Colômbia remota. A orientação familiar é atributo da Atenção Primária à Saúde e a abordagem familiar é competência do médico de família e comunidade. Esta resenha propôs-se a analisar os elementos de abordagem e terapia familiar presentes em Encanto, com base no Modelo em Quatro Etapas de Salvador Minuchin. A audiência do filme possibilita ao médico de família identificar padrões e transações familiares disfuncionais, além de elementos de terapia familiar, por isso ele pode ser útil como material de formação em abordagem familiar. Também pode ser usado como ferramenta de "cinematerapia" com as famílias que estão em acompanhamento na Atenção Primária por problemas semelhantes aos da trama.
