Authors: OUBIHI Ahmed , HMAMOUCHE Mohammed Anouar , TALEB Khalid AIT , BOUASSRIA Abdesslam
Published: August 2024

Acute intestinal intussusception remains a rare pathology in adults which is often secondary to an underlying anomaly, unlike in children. the atypical semiology and the lack of knowledge of this pathology among practitioners makes clinical diagnosis difficult. CT remains the examination of choice for positive diagnosis with rare recourse to exploratory laparoscopy in cases of diagnostic doubt. In the absence of consensus for a conservative approach and given the risk of malignancy of the underlying lesions, surgery remains the rule with oncological resection removing the intussusception tube without any attempt at intraoperative manual reduction. In this paper we report a case of acute intestinal intussusception in which the pathological study of the surgical specimen reveals unusual parietal lesions.

Cocaine is a highly addictive substance and represents a significant public health concern. The incidence of cocaine-associated myocardial infarction is low (4.7%). Coronary spasm is the presumed etiology as most patients have normal coronary arteries. We report a case of a 31-years old patient with known history of cocaine abuse that presented an acute thrombosis of the left anterior descending by a large intra-coronary thrombus. There are no specific guidelines about treating thrombus formation in coronary arteries due to cocaine use. Thereby, an optimal anti-thrombotic alone remains an effective alternative, As reported in our case, with a complete thrombus resolution.
Nomogram to Predict Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury after Liver Transplantation
Authors: Wang Siying
Published: August 2024

Background: Liver transplantation serves as an essential therapeutic intervention for patients with end-stage liver disease. However, the occurrence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) can markedly affect the clinical prognosis of these patients. Existing models to predict AKI after liver transplantation have limitations in specificity and accuracy, necessitating an updated model.
Methods: We conducted a study adhering to the TRIPOD guidelines, including patients who underwent liver transplantation at West China Hospital from 2016 to 2020. Clinical data encompassing demographics, comorbidities, and intraoperative variables were collected. The LASSO regression was used to identify optimal predictors of AKI, leading to the development of a predictive nomogram. The model’s discrimination and calibration were assessed using AUC and calibration curves, respectively.
Results: The nomogram, developed from 296 patients in the development cohort and validated on 142 patients, identified surgery duration, intraoperative blood loss, and preoperative serum creatinine as predictors of AKI. It demonstrated good discrimination with AUCs of 0.720 and 0.725 for the development and validation cohorts, respectively. The calibration curve confirmed the model’s accuracy in predicting AKI probabilities.
Conclusion: The developed nomogram offers a novel model for predicting AKI risk after liver transplantation, with robust discrimination and calibration. Further multicenter validation and potential integration of genetic and molecular biomarkers for improved accuracy are needed.

Abstract
Hypertension is an abnormal increase in blood pressure in the arterial blood vessels over a long period of time. Uncontrolled hypertension can increase the risk of stroke, heart attack, diabetes and kidney disease. One of the non-pharmacological therapies that can be used to lower blood pressure is foot hydrotherapy or foot baths using ginger boiled water. Red ginger has a higher content of volatile oil and oleoresin (gingerol) than other types of ginger which makes it feel warm and spicy. This research method uses a descriptive method using a case study approach accompanied by the application of evidence-based practice. After three days of research, it was proven that there was a decrease in blood pressure levels, with blood pressure before foot soak therapy with red ginger boiled water being 161/115 mmHg and after being given therapy to 148/95 mmHg. Giving foot bath therapy with red ginger boiled water can be an alternative to reduce blood pressure levels in patients with hypertension.

Risk Factors Associated with Intraocular Pressure and the Correlation of Central Corneal Thickness to Actual Intraocular Pressure in Myopia Patients
Authors: Pandjaitan Hadwer Wicaksono , Andrini Ariesti
Published: August 2024

Background: Myopia, a prevalent refractive error, is associated with an increased risk of glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Central corneal thickness (CCT) is a key factor in glaucoma assessment, as thinner corneas can lead to underestimation of intraocular pressure (IOP). This study aimed to investigate the correlation between CCT and actual IOP in myopic patients, considering various risk factors that may influence IOP.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included myopic patients aged 20-25 years. Participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examinations, including visual acuity assessment, autorefraction, CCT measurement using optical coherence tomography (OCT), and Goldmann applanation tonometry for IOP measurement. IOP values were corrected for CCT. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA, Pearson correlation tests, and multivariate regression analysis to identify independent risk factors for elevated IOP.
Results: A total of 78 eyes from 78 participants were analyzed. The mean CCT was significantly thinner in moderate myopia compared to mild myopia and emmetropia (p = 0.000). While IOP was lower in moderate myopia, the actual IOP, after CCT correction, was not significantly different among the groups (p = 0.078). A strong positive correlation was found between CCT and IOP (r = 0.737, p = 0.000), and a moderate negative correlation was observed between CCT and actual IOP (r = -0.492, p = 0.000). Multivariate regression analysis identified axial length (p = 0.021) and family history of glaucoma (p = 0.038) as independent risk factors for elevated IOP.
Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of CCT assessment in myopic patients, as thinner corneas can mask elevated IOP. Regular eye examinations, including CCT and IOP measurements, are crucial for early detection and management of glaucoma in this high-risk population. Axial length and family history of glaucoma were identified as independent risk factors for elevated IOP, emphasizing the need for comprehensive risk assessment in myopic individuals.

Authors: Mwendwa Fridah Nkirote , Muiruri Philomena , Mbuthia Susan
Published: August 2024

The global market demand for macadamia has surged significantly over the past two decades, driven by its exceptional nutritional value. This surge has led many farmers to diversify into macadamia farming. However, a considerable number of small-scale farmers in Africa are yet to realize optimal returns. This study examined the socio-economic and technological factors affecting macadamia farming among small-scale farmers in Meru County, Kenya. The research utilized a descriptive survey research design, employing the stratified sampling technique to select respondents, with the four wards of Central Imenti sub-county serving as the strata. The sample size of 98 respondents was proportionally distributed across the four wards, and a simple random sampling technique was employed for their selection. The data instruments included observation schedule, interview schedule and questionnaires. The analysis of quantitative data employed descriptive statistics, while thematic analysis was used for qualitative data. Cobb-Douglas production function was used to test the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The findings indicated that social, economic and technological factors affect macadamia farming. Significant social factors include household size, education level, marital status and gender. Significant economic factors encompass household income, farm size, number of macadamia trees, access to credit, labour and market type. Significant technological factors include cultivation of improved varieties, pesticides usage, application of inorganic and organic fertilizers, irrigation practices and access to agricultural technology extension. The study recommends that macadamia farmers in the study area should form a cooperative society which can assist in offering credit to farmers. Additionally, the study recommends that the county Government of Meru should avail adequate access to certified seedlings. Further, the study recommends that extension officers should work collaboratively with macadamia farmers to boost the adoption of technology, ultimately leading to increased yields

Transformasi Moderasi Beragama Berbasis Digital 2024: Sebagai Bentuk Upaya Memfilter Konten Radikalisme dan Ekstremisme di Era Disrupsi
Authors: Mandala Ican , Witro Doli , Juraidi Juraidi
Published: August 2024

The problem of community disintegration is a challenge for pluralistic societies. The massive spread of the virus of radicalism and extremism among religious communities is a factor in the widespread phenomenon of community division. The virus has an impact on the birth of intolerant understanding patterns among people of diversity. So that people clash with each other in differences, even presenting actions to negate each other. Along with the development of digitalisation, the intolerance virus has spread in the realm of digital media. The doctrine of radicalism and extremism with the use of digital media is effective in reaching a wider community, especially the younger generation. Intolerant content indoctrinates digital media users into radical and extreme understanding in the life of diversity. The spread of divisive content wrapped in a convincing narrative makes it difficult for people to filter content on digital media. Thus, efforts to prevent the problem of disintegration of the ummah in 2024 require the transformation of religious moderation by utilising digital space. This article analyses using the library research method, by conducting a literature review of books, scientific articles, magazines, websites and others. This article aims to explore the concept of realising the transformation of digital-based religious moderation based on the Qur'an which offers a concept in an effort to filter the content of radicalism and extremism. Based on in-depth analysis, the concept of realising the transformation of religious moderation in 2024 can be done by; 1). Understanding the diversity inclusiveness paradigm; 2). Exploration of content validity; 3). Understanding universal communication ethics; 4). Pro moderate narrative; 5). Millennials as moderate ambassadors.

Design of a Multi-loop PI Controller for Minimum Phase System Level Regulation in a Quadruple Tank: A Method for Constraint Optimization
Authors: G Mahammedrafi. , Dhanalakshmi R. , Busi Rambabu
Published: August 2024

A nonlinear optimization based decentralized PI controller for Two Input Two Output (TITO) is presented in this paper. Modelling of Quadruple tank minimum phase system with time delay is introduced here. The basic principles of nonlinear optimization are utilized to design the proposed PI controller in which the overshoot is bounded with constraints on the maximum closed-loop amplitude ratio, maximum closed loop width, gain and angle bounds. Besides, the control algorithm is designed for decoupled systems to reduce the loop interactions. Further, the first order plus dead time (FOPDT) model is derived for each of the decoupled subsystems to design the control law. The robust stability is analyzed by using Hurwitz and Upper triangular matrix of interrelated Kharitonov polynomials. The performance of the proposed control strategy is verified by MATLAB/SIMULINK software. The performance specifications of the simulation indicate that the suggested control strategy is more efficient.
Dynamic Optimization in 5G Network Slices: A Comparative Study of Whale Optimization, Particle Swarm Optimization, and Genetic Algorithm
Authors: Okindo Geoffrey , Kamucha Prof. George , Oyie Dr. Nicholas
Published: August 2024

This study presents a comprehensive framework for optimizing 5G network slices using metaheuristic algorithms, focusing on Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), and massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC) scenarios. The initial setup involves a MATLAB-based 5G New Radio (NR) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) simulation and OpenAir-Interface (OAI) 5G network testbed, utilizing Ubuntu 22.04 Long Term Support (LTS), MicroStack, Open-Source MANO (OSM), and k3OS to create a versatile testing environment. Key network parameters are identified for optimization, including power control settings, signal-to-noise ratio targets, and resource block allocation, to address the unique requirements of different 5G use cases. Metaheuristic algorithms, specifically the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Genetic Algorithm (GA), are employed to optimize these parameters. The algorithms are assessed based on their ability to enhance throughput, reduce latency, and minimize jitter within the network slices and the MATLAB simulation model. Each algorithm’s performance is evaluated through iterative testing, with improvements measured against established pre-optimization benchmarks. The results demonstrate significant enhancements in network performance post-optimization. For eMBB, the GA shows the most substantial increase in throughput, while PSO is most effective in reducing latency for URLLC applications. In mMTC scenarios, GA achieves the most notable reduction in jitter, illustrating the potential of metaheuristic algorithms in fine-tuning 5G networks to meet diverse service requirements.
