Published: July 2024

The objective: selection of optimal timing for chest CT to identify respiratory tuberculosis treatment failures in children and adolescents through clinical and radiological comparison.

Subjects and Methods. A retrospective comparative study was conducted. Totally 70 patients aged from 2 to 17 years with various clinical forms of respiratory tuberculosis were examined. Retrospectively, patients were divided into 3 groups: Group 1 (35 people) – CT was performed before the treatment start and, as the first control, after 2-3 months of chemotherapy; Group 2 (17 people) had a CT before the chemotherapy start and after 2-3 months – plain X-ray (or in combination with linear tomography), CT control – after 6-9 months after the chemotherapy start; Group 3 (18 people) included patients who had only plain X-ray (or in combination with linear tomography) before and during chemotherapy, CT was first performed after treatment failure

Results. In all groups, in more than 40% of cases, radiological changes were the only informative criterion of treatment failure. CT performed in the early stages was optimal for timely detection of treatment failure: before the chemotherapy start and in 2-3 months (Group 1). In patients of Groups 2 and 3, opportunities for timely correction of chemotherapy were missed due to inadequate assessment of pathological changes. CT performed after 6-9 months of treatment reliably revealed irreversible changes in 53% and 78% (Groups 2 and 3), respectively.

Published: July 2024

Methods and types (qualitative, quantitative or mixed) of control of central heating installations in residential buildings are presented. Measurements were made for a radiator in a central heating system that was powered by a heating node substation. The output temperature of the heat node supplying the residential building, in which the test stand was located, was compared with the measured supply and return temperature. Indoor room temperature, outdoor air temperature, inflow and outflow temperature on the vertical supplying the heater were also recorded and analysed. These data were compared with the control charts of the heat networks allowing for direct readings of the required feed water temperature for a given outdoor temperature according to the Heat Energy Enterprises data. The differences are accordingly presented. The actual measurements, read at the test stand located on the 2nd floor of the 4-storey building with input parameters of 90/70 °C during the entire month of December 2022, are recorded every 6 hours and are tabulated and displayed in comparison charts with the calculated parameters. Inflow and outflow temperatures values on the vertical supplying the heater and the values of outdoor temperature measured by a sensor were analysed. The temperatures supplied to the radiators in the apartments were also compared with the requirements of electronic heating cost allocators contained in the PN EN 834 standard. New design temperatures for the central heating installation were proposed due to the requirements of the electronic heating cost allocator.

Perspectives of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah Figures on Law of Buying and Selling Breast Milk (ASI)
Authors: Al Munawar Faishal Agil , Putri Febi Ananda
Published: July 2024

The buying and selling of breast milk (ASI) transactions are based on the ignorance of the society, especially mothers, regarding the prohibition of buying and selling breast milk. Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah, as community organizations in Indonesia, have also discussed determining the law regarding the practice of donating and buying breast milk. Therefore, the aim of this research is to understand the mechanism of buying and selling breast milk and the perspectives of Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah figures on the law of buying and selling breast milk. This research is an empirical juridical study using a qualitative approach with a descriptive comparative method. The results of this study show that the practice of buying and selling breast milk is conducted through the social media platform Facebook. Buying and selling are done using a barter method based on the needs of the baby. According to Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah, both bartering and cash transactions fall under the same law. Breast milk as an object essentially meets the requirements of a saleable object. However, there is an opinion that breast milk is equated with human organs, thus buying and selling breast milk is prohibited as per the law against selling organs. Nahdlatul Ulama believes that buying and selling breast milk is permissible, referring to the respected Shafi'i opinion that it is valid and permissible. However, if there are government regulations prohibiting the buying and selling of breast milk, the society must adhere to those regulations. Meanwhile, Muhammadiyah has not yet discussed the issue of buying and selling breast milk. The discussions conducted so far have only touched upon the permissibility of breast milk donation, which is done voluntarily.
The Stakes of the Unwritten Constitutional Norms and Principles Debate in the UK
Authors: Wheatle Se-shauna , Kilford Nicholas
Published: July 2024

Unwritten principles serve crucial purposes in the UK’s constitution. For example, they provide guardrails for judicial interpretation of legislation, and they form or give rise to substantive rules about the limits of legislative, judicial and executive power. With a growing body of research on unwritten constitutionalism, it is worth considering why these issues matter, and what is at stake in the debate. This post considers two issues which it argues can only be properly understood once regard is paid to the unwritten principles and norms in the UK’s constitution: the limits of Westminster’s legislative power, and the nature of the UK’s territorial constitution.

The Impact of Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography (EUVL) on Semiconductor Scaling
Authors: Katari Monish
Published: July 2024

Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography (EUVL) represents a significant advancement in semiconductor manufacturing, enabling further scaling down of device features beyond the limits of traditional photolithography. This paper explores the impact of EUVL on semiconductor scaling, detailing its technical principles, advantages, and challenges. EUVL facilitates the production of smaller, more efficient, and powerful semiconductor devices by using a shorter wavelength of light (13.5 nm) compared to deep ultraviolet lithography. This technology allows for finer patterning, reducing feature sizes to below 7 nm, thus supporting the continuation of Moore's Law. However, the implementation of EUVL comes with its own set of challenges, including high equipment costs, complex process integration, and the need for specialized materials and masks. The paper discusses the current state of EUVL technology, its integration into semiconductor manufacturing, and future prospects in the context of ongoing advancements in semiconductor scaling.

Published: July 2024

This paper relates to the investigation of the amount of seepage discharge and the water level height out of the central core in the zoned earth-fill dam using the finite element procedure by Geo Studio-SEEP/W software. The investigation models were carried out in two shapes of the central core, the rectangular and the wedge shapes, by 200 miscellaneous models. For each model, seepage discharge and height of water level out were determined. Investigation results were examined using the artificial neural network technique (ANN) to demonstrate the influence weight of each independent variable (geometry and characteristics) on the output-dependent variables results using the statistical software SPSS. Core material hydraulic conductivity had the highest impact on seepage discharge and water level height while dam upstream slope had the least impact on them. Two statistical empirical equations were developed using multiple nonlinear regression for both the seepage discharge and the height of water level out using the SPSS software. The recommended equations were also verified by comparing their results with the results of 25% of the models analyzed by Geo Studio software. They showed great agreement that the correlation coefficient (r2) was 97.3% for the seepage discharge equation and 96.6% for the height of the water level-out equation.

Exploring the Legal Approach of the Islamic Emirate towards Child Labor in Afghanistan
Authors: Barakzaei Safa , Mohammadi Maryam
Published: July 2024

Children’s rights are one of the most sensitive aspects of human rights, which are emphasized in all religious and legal values. Children need the attention of the international community and the government for their growth and development. One of the violations of children’s rights is the issue of their work, which has existed for a long time, and child labor is consistently struggling with numerous challenges in Afghanistan, although throughout all the governmental periods, numerous promises have been made to guarantee the rights of child laborers to both the UN and the people of Afghanistan, but they have failed to fulfill them. Difficult circumstances compel children to do arduous deeds that have irreparable consequences for them. Considering the importance of children's rights in Afghanistan, which have been dominated by decades of war and economic poverty, with the formation of the new Islamic Emirate government, the question arises: what is the current legal approach of the Islamic Emirate system to child labor? Apparently, the current approach of the Islamic Emirate system towards child labor includes actions to protect children’s right, but there is no specific law regarding child labor. The aim of the study is to examine the current approach of the Afghan legal system to child labor. The research method is library-method, utilizing tools such as books, scientific and research articles, sharia, and social reports. Research findings indicate that the Islamic Emirate system is currently attempting to align issues related to child labor with the principles of Sharia law. However, formal and specific laws in this regard are not yet being enforced, and the life of child labor in Afghanistan is becoming increasingly dire day by day, leading to the persistence of vulnerabilities associated with child labor.

The vulva-vaginal thrombus or puerperal haematoma results from an under mucous shearing of the vulva’s connective tissue, the vagina or of the parameters causing vascular wounds leading into a dissecting haemorrhage. It is a rare pathology with a wide incidence range. We are relating a case of voluminous genitalia thrombus treated at the maternity of Le Dantec’s Teaching Hospital in Dakar. The literature review reveals a global lack of consensus on this pathology. The aetiologies are various and the fac- tors of risks are dominated by the episiotomy and the instrumental extractions and the primipara. The main symptom is often atrocious pain. The treatment, which is not unanimous, is subjected to many controversies. The aggressive surgical treatment that depends on the lesion check up must be quick and effective because the puerperal haematoma can involve the vital pre- diction. The elective embolism seems the most entic- ing and less risky technique unless you have an ade- quate staff and technical plateau. The prevention remains unfortunately random particularly since the haematoma may occur during a normal delivery. Key words : vulva-vaginal haematoma, puerperal haematoma, post-partum haemorrhage, Dakar
Métaphores Prédicatives Et Modernité Francophone Du Français Dans L’écriture Romanesque D’henri Djombo
Authors: ELONGO Arsène
Published: July 2024

Cette étude porte sur les métaphores prédicatives et la modernité francophone du français dans l’écriture romanesque d’Henri Djombo. Une telle analyse nous oblige à présenter l’intérêt de trois notions : la francophonie, la modernité et la métaphore. Depuis l’époque de Senghor jusqu’à maintenant, la notion de francophonie reste au centre de la vie culturelle et politique des pays africains. Ainsi, beaucoup de travaux considèrent la francophonie comme « la zone d’influence française en Afrique »1, un champ de la linguistique, de la littérature et de la géopolitique. D’autres travaux montrent que l’enjeu de la francophonie repose sur la langue française. Celle-ci est étudiée dans les écoles et utilisée dans toutes les administrations des pays francophones. Les mêmes travaux reconnaissent la prédominance de la langue anglaise, outil puissant pour véhiculer les connaissances dans un public plus large, et pointent les handicaps de la langue française pour les chercheurs africains francophones lors des conférences internationales. La notion de la francophonie tisse aussi un lien avec la modernité. Cette modernité est définie comme une expression de rupture entre les langues africaines et la langue française. Celle-ci est acceptée, dans l’espace francophone, en tant qu’instrument de la modernité. Mais les langues africaines deviennent, pour les francophones africains, un trésor de la tradition et de l’identité. Cette modernité du français est appréhendée comme la production des variétés qui engendrent des innovations dans le champ linguistique de la langue française, investie d’une nouvelle syntaxe, d’une nouvelle variation phonique et d’une nouvelle création lexicale ou d’une nouveauté sémantique. Dans Vocabulaire de la modernité littéraire, Paul Louis Rossi postule la modernité comme la négation « du déjà vu déjà entendu » et ajoute : « La modernité nomme le mouvement des choses, elle postule une invention perpétuelle des formes du monde » (Rossi, 1996 : 104). De plus, on comprend également la modernité des écritures francophones comme une aventure singulière de l’écrivain qui accepte volontairement de dérégler les canons esthétiques de la norme française et renouvelle les usages de la même langue par les techniques nouvelles de calque, de l’appropriation, des emprunts et de la métaphore. En bref, la modernité exprime « l’idée d’une actualisation, d’une volonté de rendre l’art actuel par une rupture avec la continuité antérieure et la tradition » (Fourdrinier, 2013 :233). La production du sens en rupture avec des sens de la tradition française peut se lire comme une modernité des écritures francophones.

This research explores how customer engagement with the F&B brand’s dedication to social responsibility, sustainable business practices, and corporate governance influences impulsive buying. An online survey was requested, and a total of 322 participants were chosen for data analysis. To conduct statistical analysis, partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used with the SmartPLS3 program. The findings reveal that F&B brands’ ESG practices (environmental, social, and governance) influence customer engagement and impulsive buying tendency. It confirms that strong ESG efforts lead to higher customer engagement, with the social pillar having the strongest impact. Engaged customers, especially those valuing ESG, are more likely to impulsively buy products aligning with their values. Based on the results, both theoretical and practical implications are suggested to focus on social responsibility initiatives like employee well-being and diversity programs, followed by using time-sensitive marketing like limited-edition items to create urgency and boost sales.
