Published: June 2023

Arsenic is a toxic and bio-accumulating element in water bodies, especially in drinking water sources.One of the methods used to remove arsenic from drinking water is adsorption. NOM (natural organic matter), which is ubiquitous in natural aquatic environments, can inhibit arsenic adsorption by competing with arsenic for adsorbent surface sites. The main objectives of this study were to investigate the competitive adsorption between NOM and arsenic using low-cost adsorbents. For this purpose, batch adsorption experiments were carried out in synthetic and natural water using pumice, steel slag and red mud as low cost adsorbents.The highest arsenic removal efficiencies obtained with steel slag, pumice and red mud were 95, 95 and 50 %, respectively without the presence of NOM. The results showed that the presence of NOM caused a significant reduction in arsenic adsorption for all tested adsorbents and 20-30% less arsenic removal efficiency was obtained in natural water compared to the removal efficiencies obtained in synthetic water. The maximum adsorption capacities obtained in synthetic water with all tested adsorbents vary between 1.6 -3.05 mgAs/g, while the maximum adsorption capacities obtained in natural water vary between 0.9-1.2 mgAs/g. All these findings indicate that NOM can hinder the uptake of arsenic by all tested adsorbents. Moreover, the arsenic adsorption in natural water were modelled by Langmuir, Freundlich and modified Freundlich. The results showed that the arsenic adsorption data were well fitted by modified Freundlich isotherm with R2 values between 0.87 and 0.90.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are widely used in product development processes due to efficient algorithms to solve Navier Stokes equations. In this study, the coordinates of the NACA 1412 and NACA 2415 sections selected from the standard wing sections of the National Aviation Advisory Committee (NACA) have been implemented with specific procedures to create new geometries and a new wing profile design using the coordinate method. The wing profile geometry is created from the coordinates available in the literature. Fixed two-dimensional viscous flows around the generated wing profiles are simulated using commercially available ANSYS-Fluent software. The mesh structure used was created using the C type and rectangular structure. CFD and wind tunnel analysis of attack angles ranging from certain degrees. The aerodynamic coefficients of the related statuses, i.e. the lift and drag coefficients obtained from the analysis, have been compared with the wind tunnel test results. Aerodynamic research in recent years focuses on active flow control concepts, laminar flow control, fuel economy and higher transport/drag force ratio. This is designed to understand and analyze flow behavior around airfoils using the CFD method.

Authors: Güğül Gül Nihal
Published: June 2023

The population of Antarctica consists of scientific research personnel. The number of residents ranges from about 1,100 in the winter to about 4,400 in the summer and up to 1,000 additional personnel in the nearby waters. Even in summer, Antarctica's sub-zero temperature increases the energy consumption of buildings for heating purposes. At the same time, the absence of a grid system necessitates the use of off-grid fossil-based or renewable energy systems. Considering the natural environment and building conditions in the studies, the multiple evaluation of the ground process for research stations is grouped into four main criteria: scientific research, environment, logistical support and topography. In these studies, the capacity of the renewable energy system requirement was not examined. For this reason, in this study, the capacities of the optimum hybrid renewable energy systems in 16 locations selected from different regions of Antarctica were compared. In the study, typical meteorological climate data of 15 locations were obtained. The daily energy demand is obtained by calculating the daily electricity consumption of the electrical devices and heating system that can be used. Results of this study shows that according to purpose of the site, many locations that meets the requirements may exist with extremely different energy demands. In site selection, first the possile locations that supply the requirements should be determined, than energy demands and required systems should be compared.

Women are the most vital part of Indian economy, constituting one-third of the national labour force and a major contributor to the survival of the family. In order to have a stable and independent position in the society women are mobilized to organize into groups for undertaking mutually beneficial social and economic activities. These groups are basically known as the self help group which serves as a small voluntary association for poor and marginalized women in the society. They come together for the purpose of solving their common problems through self help and mutual help. Self help groups may exist separately or as part of large organizations. The formation of self help groups aims for the development of socio-economic conditions of the group, their quality of life and to help the group to become self-dependent which indirectly relates to the socio-economic development of the country.

Authors: Márquez Díaz Rita Rocío
Published: June 2023

El síndrome post-UCI pediátrico (PICS-P por sus siglas en inglés) engloba todas aquellas secuelas que pueden presentar los supervivientes tras su estancia en la unidad de críticos. Los síntomas pueden manifestarse a nivel físico, cognitivo, psicológico y en la calidad de vida. Además, la enfermedad de un miembro de la familia es una situación complicada que los cuidadores pueden vivenciar de forma dramática, por lo hay que informarles sobre cómo reconocer los signos y síntomas que ocasiona y de los recursos de ayuda disponibles para su abordaje. Por tanto, este trabajo se centra en realizar una intervención educativa con el objeto de sensibilizar a los cuidadores sobre la importancia de este síndrome. Para ello, se emplearán tres estrategias diferentes: tríptico, vídeo e interacción oral, y se pretende conocer si el grado de conocimientos relativo al PICS-P se ha visto incrementado entre los cuidadores, así como seleccionar la intervención que proporcione la información de manera más clara. Este estudio experimental se llevará a cabo en tres fases. La primera corresponde al diseño y validación de un cuestionario de conocimientos sobre el síndrome post-UCI; durante la segunda se elaborará y validará la intervención educativa; y, por último, se ejecutará el experimento. 
 
ABSTRACT
Paediatric post-ICU syndrome (PICS-P for its acronym in English) encompasses all those sequelae that survivors may present after their stay in the critical care unit. The symptoms can manifest themselves at a physical, cognitive, psychological level and in the quality of life. In addition, the illness of a family member is a complicated situation that caregivers can experience in a dramatic way, so they must be informed about how to recognize the signs and symptoms it causes and about the help resources available to deal with it. Therefore, this work focuses on carrying out an educational intervention to sensitize caregivers about the importance of this syndrome. For this, three different strategies will be used: triptych, video, and oral interaction, and it is intended to know if the degree of knowledge related to the PICS-P has been increased among the caregivers, as well as to select the intervention that provides the information clearer. This experimental study will be carried out in three phases. The first corresponds to the design and validation of a knowledge questionnaire on the post-ICU syndrome; during the second, the educational intervention will be developed and validated; and finally, the experiment will be executed.

Authors: Salahshoori Niaei Fatemeh , Farah Taj Navab Akbar
Published: June 2023

Introduction: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that affects the urinary tract. The bacterial infection of the upper urinary tract is called nephritis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial effect of Valeriana officinalis and Ciprofloxacin on kidney histopathology in rats with pyelonephritis by Pseudomonas.

Materials and Methods: In this study, 48 male Wistar rats were divided into six groups and each group had two replicates. The first group was considered a control and received 0.1 mg/ kg/day of saline daily for a month. The second group received a single injection of 0.5 McFarland of microbial suspension per kilogram of animal into the pelvis of the right kidney of the rats, resulting in pyelonephritis. The third group of rats received 0.9 mg/kg/day methanolic extract of Valeriana officinalis intraperitoneally for a month. The fourth group of rats received Ciprofloxacin intraperitoneally for a month at a dose of 0.6 mg/kg/day. Group five contained rats with pyelonephritis that received the antibiotic (Ciprofloxacin) at a dosage of 0.6 mg/kg/day. Group six with pyelonephritis received 0.9 mg/kg/day of Valeriana officinalis extract. The inflammation in the cortex, Pelvic, medulla, and tissue sections was studied at the end of the study.

Results: The rats that received Valeriana officinalis extract improved pelvic and medullary tissue, the site of Pseudomonas bacteria, and prevented the destruction of renal cortex tissue. The rats that received Ciprofloxacin had fewer medullary and tissue inflammations.

Conclusion: According to the results of this research, the extract not only improved the tissue of the pelvis and medulla, which is where Pseudomonas bacteria live, but it also inhibits the degradation of renal cortex tissue. It was proven to diminish medullary inflammation to some extent, but in rats, it exacerbated the loss of renal cortex tissue.

Authors: Qasemi Ali , Bayat Zeynab , Akbari Nazanin , Babazadeh Daryoush
Published: June 2023

Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii), one of the five most important bacteria with global threat to human health due to constantly increasing resistance (ESKAPE organisms), identified as a enormous threat in healthcare facilities, can create antibiotic resistance. The implementation of early detection and identification of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii is serious to control its spread. The this study presents the human infection of A. baumannii, pathological findings, virulence factors of A. baumannii, antibiotic resistance mechanisms, and the therapeutic options available for treating A. baumannii infections. The ability of A. baumannii to develop antibiotic resistance mechanisms allows the organism to prosper in hospital settings, facilitating the global spread of multidrug-resistant strains. To dominate this problem, knowledge of the pathogenesis and antibiotic resistance mechanisms of A. baumannii is important. As reported, A. baumannii resistance to aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, and carbapenems increased, and resistance to lipopeptides, such as polymyxin B and colistin, are lower compared to that of other antimicrobial drugs. Therefore, novel prevention and treatment strategies against A. baumannii infections are warranted.

Published: June 2023

Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is an important bacterium which induces a wide range of diseases. Its presence in dogs and resistance to antibiotics is a threat to public health due to the close association of humans with dogs. The objective of the present study was to determine the phenotypic resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) to antibiotics in dogs without any clinical manifestation of diseases in Tamale Metropolis, Ghana. The current study also examined microbial load in these dogs. Materials and methods: A total of 120 samples from various parts of dogs, including the mouth, nose, anus, inner ear, and outer ear, were examined. Isolation and antibiotic resistance of S. aureus were determined using the USA Bacteriological Analytical Manual and the Disc Diffusion method, respectively.

Results: The presence of S. aureus in the dogs ranged from 8.3% (anus) to 58.3% (nose), averaging 40%. The microbial load also ranged from 2.9 log cfu/cm2 (mouth) to 3.4 log cfu/cm2 (outer ear) with an average of 3.2 log cfu/cm2. There were significant differences among the examined samples regarding the presence of S. aureus, but not the microbial load. The overall resistance, intermediate resistance, and susceptibility of S. aureus were 46.2%, 12.9%, and 42.2%, respectively. The S. aureus was highly resistant to teicoplanin (88.0%) and susceptible to chloramphenicol (72.0%). The multiple antibiotic indexes ranged from 0 to 0.9, and 89.1% of the isolates exhibited multidrug resistance.

Conclusion: The findings of the current study revealed that healthy dogs in Tamale Metropolis, Ghana, were carriers of S. aureus as well as other bacteria, and the S. aureus exhibited different resistance patterns to antibiotics.
