EARLY PREDICTION OF ESOPHAGEAL VARICES ON THE BASIS OF ASPARTATE AMINO-TRANSFERASE (AST) TO PLATELET RATIO INDEX (APRI) AND TRANSIENT ELASTOGRAPHY IN PATIENTS OF CIRRHOSIS OF LIVER
Authors: Agarwal Rahul , Singh Balvir , Chandra Subhash
Published: August 2022

Objectives: To study the etiological prole in liver cirrhosis patients & to predict development of esophageal varices at the earliest with the help of
Aspartate Amino-Transferase (AST) to Platelet ratio index (APRI) and Transient Elastography in these patients. The study wasMethods:
conducted on 100 patients with chronic liver disease from June 2019 to June 2021. Informed consent was taken from the patients and detailed
history, physical examination, laboratory investigations were carried out & UGI endoscopies were performed. APRI scores & Transient
Elastography (broscan) liver stiffness measurement (LSM) values were then correlated with 'presence or absence' of esophageal varices (EVs)
and with the 'grading' of varices. Among the 100 patients with liver cirrhosis, the overall prevalence of liver cirrhosis was higher in malesResults:
(67.0%) than females (33.0%). The main cause of liver cirrhosis was alcoholic liver disease (39.0%) followed by chronic hepatitis B infection
(15.0%). Different APRI cut-offs of 1.9, 1.4, 0.9 were taken & correlated with 'presence or absence' of EVs & with the 'grading' of EVs, but none
shows satisfactory negative predictive value (NPV), proving that there is no satisfactory cut-off value of APRI to be used as a predictor of
esophageal varices. However, as the APRI score is increasing, the grading of varices found on UGI endoscopy is increasing (r = 0.605, p<0.001).
LSM cut-off values of 24KPa, 19KPa & 14KPa were taken & we observed NPV of 75.0% for predicting esophageal varices at LSM cutoff of 14
KPa. Also, as the LSM score is increasing, the grading of varices found on UGI endoscopy is increasing (r = 0.842, p<0.001). APRIConclusion:
scores correlate poorly with the 'presence or absence' of esophageal varices but it correlate signicantly with the 'grading' of varices. Transient
elastogram liver stiffness values correlate signicantly with the 'presence or absence' of esophageal varices & also with the 'grading' of varices.
Liver stiffness value of ≥14.0 KPa can be used as a guide for early prediction of esophageal varices & endoscopy should be done in these patients to
prevent fatal GI bleed from esophageal varices by medical management to decrease portal pressure or by early endotherapy in the form of
endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) or sclerotherapy.

Acute pancreatitis is an acute inammatory condition of pancreas that can range from mild self-limiting disease to severe pancreatitis charecterised
by acute inammation,necrosis,Systemic Inammatory Response Syndrome(SIRS),Multi Organ Dysfunction Syndrome(MODS) and death. The
atherogenic index of plasma(AIP) reects the TG and HDL levels calculated as log(TG/HDL).AIP is a biomarker for dyslipidemia ,metabolic
syndrome , coronary syndrome.Low HDL level and elevated TG level is a well known risk factor for persistent organ failure in acute pancreatitis.In
this study we aim to correlate serum triglycerides and HDL levels with severity of acute pancreatitis, All patients with rst episode of acute
pancreatitis with serum amylase and/or lipase ≥3 times the upper normal limit and Characteristic imaging on a radiological study were included in
the study. Clinical data and blood samples were obtained patients' diagnoses of AP. . The AIP was dened as log (TG/HDL). The severity of AP was
evaluated according to the 2012 revised Atlanta classication and recorded as mild, moderately severe, or severe AP.statistical analysis was done
and results were derived as Atherogenic Index of plasma(AIP) was signicantly higher in the SAP group. Hence AIP can be used as predictor for

En la globalización que nos encontramos, la explotación sexual comercial infantil tiene un mayor impacto, ya que el uso de herramientas informáticas y tecnológicas, permiten que este fenómeno criminal como la pederastia y explotación sexual infantil se riegue rápidamente por el mundo entero, sin considerar niveles de cultura y educación de los diferentes Estados, incluso, el poder punitivo del Estado es insuficiente para controlar esta vulneración a los derechos de los Niños, Niñas y Adolescentes (en adelante NNA). Es por ello, que el presente proyecto de investigación, resultó una experiencia única, sobre todo por el gran acercamiento a una realidad existente, que es estigmatizada por varios actores, los cuales prefieren callar y mantener en reserva hechos violentos, donde los derechos humanos se ven vulnerados afectando directamente la dignidad de las personas, específicamente en esta investigación nos enfocamos a uno de los grupos más vulnerables como son los niños, niñas y adolescentes.
Being a Pre-Service English Language Teacher in Covid-19 Times: A Narrative Study
Authors: Valencia Revelo Gabriela
Published: August 2022

Pre-service English language instruction is fraught with tensions between academic goals at the university and those at the school. These conflicts were exacerbated by COVID-19 contingency. This critical qualitative narrative study aimed to understand three aspiring English language teachers’ perspectives they designed pedagogical innovations during their teaching practicum in the context of remote education. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using grounded theory principles. Results show experiences before, during, and after the practicum. They serve as examples of both formal and experiential knowledge-based methods for practicum, as well as concern over the introduction of schoolteachers or supervisors. Finally, findings echo reflections from aspiring teachers’ lived experiences during teaching practicum. Conclusions call for agreement between the processes involved in language teaching development and academic needs, as well as pre-service teachers’ autonomy for the enrichment of practicum.

From the Vicus to the House of the Painter : Archaeological research in Aquincum Civil Town in the past 20 years (2000–2020)
Authors: Láng Orsolya
Published: August 2022

Unlike the legionary camp and the Military Town, the area of Aquincum Civil Town was not built up after the Roman Period, and, therefore, it is available for research with the exception of two traffic corridors that have existed for hundreds of years and the residential area and a factory (Gasworks) on the outskirts of the present-day city. Therefore, our understanding of the settlement has continuously evolved for 130 years now and knowledge continued to accumulate in the past 20 years. Moreover, modern development projects, authenticating excavations, and the review of archaeological assemblages that had been brought to light earlier yielded a wealth of new information, which in some cases fundamentally changed our perception of the Civil Town’s topography and chronology.

Background: Stroke is increasingly recognized as a global public health concern which is one of the leading causes of death and disability. Metabolic syndrome increases the risk of developing stroke. Recently, studies have been undergone world-wide on metabolic syndrome and stroke but studies are yet limited among Bangladeshi population. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome and stroke in Bangladeshi population. Methods: This center-based case-control study was conducted from January 2020 to January 2021 among 66 cases and 66 age and sex matched controls at National Institute of Neurosciences and Hospital (NINS), Dhaka, Bangladesh. Participants were interviewed by a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire. A checklist was used to document waist circumference, blood pressure and reports of biochemical investigations. Results: Mean age of the cases was 54.36 ± 9.94 years and controls was 52.66 ± 9.03 years. Among the components of metabolic syndrome, hypertension (p < 0.05, OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.04-2.19), elevated triglyceride (p < 0.05, OR 1.74, 95% CI 1.21-2.50) and reduced HDL (p = 0.018, OR 2.436, 95% CI 1.066-5.566) were associated with stroke. The proportion of abdominal obesity in cases was 22.7% while a higher proportion was found in controls (30.3%). This study revealed a significant association between metabolic syndrome and stroke (χ2 = 7.891, p <0.05, OR 0.354, 95% CI 0.17- 0.74). Conclusion: This study showed that components of metabolic syndrome were more prevalent in stroke.

Authors: Ahsan Dr. Atikul , Haque Dr. Mohammad Fazlul , Islam Dr. Mohammad Raisul
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Dehiscence is the partial or complete separation of previously approximated wound margins as a result of inadequate wound healing. Wound dehiscence is most common following an open wound surgery. It's also known as wound breakdown, wound disruption, or wound separation. Various preoperative and postoperative variables might impact it, and these factors can also influence the patient's result following surgery. Aim of the Study: The aim of the study was to observe the operative findings and outcome of patients with abdominal wound dehiscence that had undergone emergency laparotomy. Methods: This prospective clinical study was conducted at the Department of Surgery, MAG Osmani Medical College, Sylhet, Bangladesh. The study duration was 8 months, from July 2008 to February 2009. A total of 460 participants were selected from those undergoing emergency laparotomy in the study place for this study. A consecutive selection method was followed for the selection of the participants. The participants were divided into two groups depending on whether wound dehiscence was developed or not. Result: All the baseline characteristics (age, body mass index, and smoking habit) of patients except sex were significantly associated with wound dehiscence. The history of receiving steroid and cytotoxic drug were higher in patients with wound dehiscence than that in patients without wound dehiscence. However, the history of receiving the immunosuppressive drug was almost identical between the groups. The patients who did not take hygienic measures or take bath before an operation or change clothing had a higher incidence of wound dehiscence. The mean duration of operation, prolene suture used for closure, midline incision, mass closure technique and drain given had significant influence on development of wound dehiscence. Presence of ascitic fluid, pus and contaminated faecal material demonstrated their significant presence in patients who develop wound dehiscence than .....
Review of Vent Systems of Space Vehicle, Spacecraft and Aircraft
Authors: Mehta R. C.
Published: August 2022

The main focus of the review article is to present the vent system of space vehicle and spacecraft. Quasi-one dimensional, quasi-steady and isentropic analytical and computational fluid dynamics equations are employed to compute differential pressure inside the compartment. Discharge characteristics of vent system depend on geometry, location of vent and external environment. An inverse analysis is performed to estimate the discharge coefficient using measured and computed compartment differential pressure time history. The reconstructed differential pressures of the compartment are compared with pre- and post-flight data. The differential pressure and the rate of pressure drop in the compartments are analysed via isentropic equations. A numerical scheme based on compressible gas dynamics relation is discussed for pressurization of aircraft cabin. The vent valve with a spring loaded butterfly valve can be evaluated using the isentropic relations.

Published: August 2022

Although the most common pulmonary manifestation of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is lymphangiomyomatosis, multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia (MMPH) can also be seen in up to half of the patients with TSC. Computed tomography is the modality of choice for diagnosis and follow-up of MMPH which is typically appear as multiple, subcentimeter, randomly distributed solid and groundglass nodules. The awareness of this entity in patients with TSC will avoid unnecessary further work-up for underlying infectious or neoplastic causes.
An Analysis on Statutory and Customary Land Ownership in Cameroon: Two Parallel Ways
Authors: Ekei Tegha Vivian , Epie Lombe Viola
Published: August 2022

Land is essential for every human activity on earth as it is the source of all material wealth. In order to regulate the ownership, use and development of land and land resources, nations over the world have instituted land ownership systems aimed at consistent balancing of the interests of the government, the land owning class and the landless class. This paper examines the parallel nature of statutory and customary land ownership in Cameroon, how it has evolved over the years until 1974 when a single land law, otherwise known as the 1974 Land Ordinance, which were established to harmonize and regulate land ownership in the country. The paper further contends that the present land ownership system in Cameroon as found in the ordinance is advocating inclinations with excessive state control of land ownership, use and development. In connection with our above objectives, we adopted an in-depth content analysis, which is based on primary and secondary sources of data collection imperative to the study. The paper concludes that such land system cannot effectively support the indigenes and development initiatives as it creates too much bureaucracy in land transactions, land registration and land titling. It recommends an urgent balance between the statutory and customary land ownership to facilitate access to land with ease for various purposes.

Background: The majority of perinatal research on COVID-19 currently focuses on the pregnancy consequences of SARS-CoV-2-infected women, including as cesarean sections, fetal distress, premature delivery, and even maternal mortality. However, it is currently uncertain how the COVID-19 pandemic would negatively affect premature membrane rupture. Aim of the Study: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of Covid 19 on preterm rupture of membrane. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in department of obstetrics and gynaecology, Care Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh from 2021 to 2022. Total 100 pregnant women were included in this study. Where group A represented Covid 19 affected (n=50) and group B represented Not affected by Covid 19 (n=50). Result: In this study, mean age was 30.9 years (SD±8.5 years) in group A and 29.3 years (SD±7.5 years) in group B. Mean gestational age was 37.55 weeks (SD±2.42 weeks) in group A and 36.10 weeks (SD±3.08 weeks) in group B. Both groups had history of preterm delivery (2%), 8% of group A and 4% of group B had history of postpartum hemorrhage, and 22% of group A and 2% of group B had other family members affected. The commonest mode of delivery in both groups; 74% and 62% in group A and group B respectively. 16% in group A and 8% in group B had premature rupture of membranes and 4% in group A and 2% in group B had preterm premature rupture of membranes. Table V shows the neonatal outcome. Neonatal Covid 19 positive was 4% in group A. 18% of group A and 10% of group B were admitted in NICU. Neonatal mortality was 4% in group A and 2% in group B. Conclusion: Preterm births are more likely to occur in pregnant COVID-19 patients and the disease has an impact on NICU admissions. Premature rupture of membranes at term and preterm are more frequent in patients with COVID-19.
Factors Influencing Create Entrepreneurs’: An Empirical Evidence from Sonali Bank Limited, Kotbari, Cumilla Region

Published: August 2022

An entrepreneur is a man or woman who starts or organizes, operates, shifts economic resources, coordinating, controlling of instituting significant changes and assumes the risk of his or her venture as well as receives the financial profits and nonmonetary rewards from the market value of his or her product. In Bangladesh, the entrepreneurs’ rate is increasing with the assistance of different loans. Consequently, it is a burning quest for entrepreneurs to get loans in easy ways and conditions. To meet this demand, they need to be supported SME loans by Government and central banks. Moreover, the new entrepreneurs are taking loans from several sources like family members, relatives and different financial and non-financial institutions. This study aims to find out the role of Sonali Bank Limited in creating entrepreneurs: A survey on Kotbari Branch. From in-depth interviews, it was found that getting SME loans with previous business experience, especially for new entrepreneurs, is one of the significant problems. In other interviews, 14 entrepreneurs among 39 entrepreneurs (44% among 100%) who took SME loans from SBL found that entrepreneurs don’t get enough SMEs according to their demands and expectations. Findings show that the need for SME loans in developing countries like Bangladesh is increasing with the increasing number of new entrepreneurs. It is advised that the government and central bank improve SME loans by appropriate actions, such as abolishing past company experience criteria for new entrepreneurs, in addition to lowering superfluous formalities and increasing transparency. SME loans can change an economic image of a country cooperating with honest and bona fide entrepreneurs’ necessities. In the present economy of our country, the sector is shaking the face of our independent country Bangladesh.
The Rhetoric of aikia in Petitions from Roman Egypt
Authors: Allbright Joshua
Published: August 2022

This article discusses the rhetorical usage of the verb αικίζεσθαι (‘abuse’, ‘thrash’, ‘brutalize’) and its derivatives in petitions from Roman Egypt. Curiously, this description of violence only appears in petitions from the Roman period. Using theories of conflict resolution and social control, it is argued that the writers of these petitions, the majority of whom lived in villages in the Arsinoite nome, used the concept of aikia in an attempt to overcome the inefficiency of the Roman Egyptian legal system by augmenting the severity of the crimes they suffered. The usage of the verb αικίζεσθαι (often paired with the noun πληγαις) emphasized the brutality and socially transgressive nature of the attack and presented it as something that needed to be addressed by the authorities immediately, as it affected the entire social order. Over time the phrase πληγαις αικίζεσθαι became formulaic in its expression, suggesting that it was not just contained to a handful of petitions. Rather it was a linguistic phenomenon in itself that reveals the effects of the social and legal environment of Roman Egypt on the language of petitions.
What can the lives of saints tell us about history? The case of the Coptic Life of Aaron
Authors: Wipszycka Ewa
Published: August 2022

The excellent work done by J. Dijkstra and J. Van der Vliet, who edited an important hagiographic text with a huge introduction and a huge commentary, prompted the author of the present paper to walk in their footsteps and to propose some corrections or supplements concerning the date of the composition of the text, the procedure of the election and ordination of bishops, the beginnings of monasticism in the region of the First Cataract. The Life of Aaron is a reliable source for the history of the Church of the 6th century (or rather the last part of it), not of the 4th century, as the anonymous author would suggest. On the other hand its picture of monasticism is made up of stereotypes derived from literary works concerning monks. From it we cannot learn anything about monks living near Syene.
How to Become a Monastic Superior? Legal and Mundane Sine Qua Nons
Authors: Wojtczak Marzena
Published: August 2022

The literary portrayal of the charismatic founders of monastic communities, and of their successors, abounds in descriptions of ascetic practices and devotion. However, the hegumenoi also needed to be individuals of the right standing and competence, as it was only such people who could properly represent the communities in relations with both lay and ecclesiastical authorities, secure the obedience of all the brethren, as well as efficiently manage the community and its assets. The nature and the exact procedure of superior’s appointment became increasingly relevant and began to interest both the church and the secular authorities once the monastic movement reached such a magnitude that it could no longer be left without proper institutional surveillance. In parallel, there was a growing awareness among monks themselves of the need to standardise the existing practices and experience. In this article I focus on the legal conditions delimiting the transfer of headship over monastic communities and their reflection in mundane reality. My aim is to see how documents of legal practice relate to the imperial legislation dealing with the appointment of the people in charge of the monasteries. The analysis of the superior selection process will allow for commenting on both the legal framework within which the monastic communities functioned, and the much broader issue of imperial policy towards the emerging holy houses. It should also enable some conclusions on the legal status of monastic communities and how it may have influenced the realities of appointing their administrative and spiritual heads.
ΜΕΓΑ ΤΟ ΟΝΟΜΑ ΤΟΥ ΣΑΡΑΠΙΣ: An inscribed bronze ring from Marina el-Alamein
Authors: Łajtar Adam , Bąkowska Grażyna
Published: August 2022

The article offers the publication of a bronze ring discovered during the archaeological work on the site of Marina el-Alamein, located on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea c. 100 kilometres west of Alexandria. The ring dated to the second century CE on contextual and formal grounds carries the acclamation 'Great is the name of Sarapis' in Greek inscribed on its bezel. The acclamation stems from the religious atmosphere of the times, which, in the quest for the divine, ascribed a sort of superiority to some gods of the polytheistic system. The ring contributes to the picture of religious beliefs and practices of the ancient inhabitants of an anonymous settlement hidden under the site of Marina el-Alamein.
Riedizione del verbale di apertura di testamento latino conservato in P. Berol. inv. 7124 = ChLA X 412
Authors: Colella Lucia C.
Published: August 2022

This paper proposes a re-edition of the opening protocol of M. Sempronius Priscus’ will from ad 131 (P. Berol. inv. 7124 = ChLA X 412 = CPL 220). The testament is written in Latin, with the testator’s signature in Greek, but in the Latin text itself some interference phenomena from Greek are noteworthy. New readings shed light on the objects of legacies, in particular concerning the bequeathing of land parcels. In the fideicommissary section the phrase volo et iubeo, rare in this period, is to be noted, together with a disposition concerning the pupillae Herais and Tamystha and another one ordering the testators’ daughters not to litigate in court against each other. The place in which the will was opened was most probably Arsinoe, since this toponym seems not to have been crossed out, as was previously believed. All the names of the witnesses are now known.
Monks and monasteries in Egypt between household and estate. A case study from Bawit
Authors: Wegner Joanna
Published: August 2022

The article attempts to explore the applicability of the household model to the monastery of Bawit in Middle Egypt as seen through the papyrological documentation. By focusing on features and functions of household underscored in definitions used by sociology and economy, it defines the monastery as a unit where material and symbolic value was produced and transmitted, and brings to light connections between people, materialities, and labour.
