A clinical case report is presented of an elderly adult recovering from cardiac arrest who developed generalized myoclonus or Lance Adams syndrome in a tertiary care hospital. Myoclonus is defined as a sudden, brief muscle contraction (1).  The Lance Adams Syndrome is a form of post- hypoxic myoclonus, characterized by action myoclonus that typically involve the trunk, face, and extremities, and whose onset is days to weeks after a hypoxic brain injury. (2) The incidence of post-hypoxic myoclonus is 1. 3 cases per 100,000 people per year, so its differential diagnosis represents a challenge. The etiology may be secondary to cardiorespiratory arrest, anesthetic and surgical accidents, in addition to heart disease and drug overdose. Acute post-hypoxic myoclonus begins hours after the injury, sometimes begins as myoclonic status epilepticus, and if the patient survives, he will progress to a chronic phase with a poor or low life expectancy. Treatment is controversial, several articles agree that patients have shown better response to Levetiracetam, Magnesium Valproate, Lacosamide and Clonazepam.

Published: September 2024

Mastery of digital skills is essential for animal husbandry students because digital technology has changed the way of work and innovation in the livestock industry. With digital skills, students can optimize livestock management, track livestock health and reproduction, and predict market developments more efficiently. Perceptions of self-efficacy regarding the ability to use digital technology will encourage increased digital skills for students. Many studies examine digital skills, but limited studies discuss how digital self-efficacy is formed by involving institutional support, instructor influence, peer influence, and digital literacy. Therefore, this study examines a structural model for forming digital self-efficacy involving institutional support, instructor influence, peer influence, and digital literacy. A total of 263 students were involved in filling out the research questionnaire. This study uses structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis with SmartPLS software. The study results reveal that digital self-efficacy is directly influenced by peer influence and digital literacy. Meanwhile, institutional support and instructor influence do not directly affect digital self-efficacy. Another finding, digital literacy mediates the influence of institutional support, instructor influence, and peer influence on student digital self-efficacy. This study discusses in depth how to master digital self-efficacy through the learning process on campus and the implications of this study for universities.

Published: September 2024

En este estudio, se introduce una plataforma de gestión energética jerárquica que incorpora la tecnología blockchain para eliminar la dependencia de un coordinador centralizado. La plataforma está diseñada para operar en comunidades energéticas donde aparecen incertidumbres estocásticas. La estrategia se divide en dos niveles: en el nivel superior, se lleva a cabo un problema de optimización de control predictivo distribuido estocástico, en el que todos los hogares de la comunidad participan para determinar las acciones de control de manera horaria. En este nivel, se utiliza un contrato inteligente como intermediario entre los hogares, encargado de realizar las tareas de control e intercambio de información. Por otro lado, en el nivel inferior, cada hogar resuelve de manera local e independiente un problema de optimización de control predictivo para seguir las referencias establecidas después del consenso alcanzado por la capa superior, a una frecuencia significativamente mayor. La validez de esta plataforma para optimizar el funcionamiento económico de la comunidad y cumplir con las restricciones probabilísticas, se ha validado con diferentes simulaciones.

Published: September 2024

Este artículo presenta la integración y validación experimental de una ley de guiado de línea de visión con estimación de estados en vehículos autónomos de superficie (ASVs), cuyo uso creciente en ambientes marítimos requiere de soluciones de control avanzadas. La investigación aborda el seguimiento de camino, un método comúnmente empleado que no tiene restricciones de tiempo y permite una convergencia precisa a la trayectoria parametrizada deseada. El esquema de control propuesto integra un observador de estado no lineal y un controlador de velocidad PID. Mediante distintas métricas estadísticas se verifica que los resultados experimentales del controlador implementado en un ASV real (Yellowfish) mantienen los errores de seguimiento dentro de umbrales aceptables. Aunque existen desafíos en cuanto a la dinámica de los vehículos y la incidencia de las perturbaciones, el control de seguimiento demostró estabilidad y robustez. Se sugieren futuras mejoras, como la incorporación de un controlador de velocidad más robusto y el uso de estimaciones de perturbaciones para mejorar el rendimiento global del controlador.

Gastric volvulus in children: diagnosis and treatment approaches
Authors: Ulusoy Tangül Sevgi
Published: September 2024

Gastric volvulus is a sporadic disease in the pediatric age group and is very complex in terms of etiology and management. In this study, we aimed to discuss two late-diagnosed gastric volvulus cases, review the diagnosis and treatment methods of gastric volvulus cases in the pediatric age group encountered in the literature, and reduce concerns about the correct diagnostic approach to these cases. The first case was an 8-year-old girl who was followed up due to developmental delay and metabolic disease and was admitted due to recurrent vomiting attacks. The endoscopic reduction was first performed on the patient whose upper gastrointestinal tract imaging was compatible with organoaxial gastric volvulus. Since vomiting attacks continued, laparoscopic gastropexy was performed. In the postoperative follow-up, there was weight gain and vomiting complaints wholly regressed. The second case was a 1-year-old girl who was treated for gastroesophageal reflux at an external center due to vomiting and developmental delay, but she did not receive any response. The endoscopic reduction was performed because the patient's upper gastrointestinal imaging was compatible with the organoaxial gastric volvulus. Laparoscopic gastropexy was performed on the patient whose vomiting recurred. The stomach was expected to be seen in the upper passage imaging in the postoperative period. In the systematic search made in the MEDLINE/Pubmed database using the keywords "gastric volvulus and pediatric," 41 literature articles presenting 47 cases between 2013 and 2023 were included. The patient's age, gender, complaints at admission, type of gastric volvulus, and treatment-related data were collected. The most common symptoms in the patients were vomiting, and abdominal pain and the most common comorbidities were diaphragmatic pathologies and wandering spleen. The most preferred treatment was anterior gastropexy. Gastric volvulus is characterized by vomiting, abdominal pain, and developmental delay. It is tough to diagnose, especially in chronic cases. In addition to the conservative approach in chronic cases, anterior gastropexy should be preferred to prevent recurrent volvulus attacks.

Published: September 2024

This study sought to analyse how the pre-colonial Aembu organised their land and labour systems in food crop production for guaranteed household food security up to 1906. The pre-colonial African societies had either matrilineal or patrilineal systems of land ownership, while labour was gender specific. The study employed a descriptive research design. The study was conducted in Embu East, Embu West and Embu North sub-counties of the larger Embu County. Purposive sampling with a snowballing technique was applied to get 50 respondents who were interviewed from a target population of 16,144. The study corroborated data from oral, archival records and secondary sources. The findings were that the pre-colonial Aembu food crop producers had elaborate systems of land rights and land use under clan heads. The land access system accommodated practices like shifting cultivation and intercropping; the pre-colonial division of labour in food crop production combined all household members and those other forms of labour like communal, paid and corporate were sourced from outside the household. The study concluded that the pre-colonial Aembu were food secure in spite of occasional rainfall failure, locust invasion and warfare, while the articulation of pre-colonial and capitalist land and labour systems exposed the society members to food insecurity. The study contributed to the pre-colonial social, political and economic historiography of the Aembu people. The study recommends that the post-colonial government should employ strategies that can be effectively used to mitigate food crop production insecurity by focusing on the adoption of various traditional methods of land and labour access.
QUALIDADE DA INFORMAÇÃO CONTÁBIL NA PANDEMIA
Authors: Moreira Rafael de Lacerda , Santana Ressurreição Delio
Published: September 2024

O estudo teve como principal objetivo investigar o impacto do período da pandemia na qualidade da informação contábil e como isso afetou a comparabilidade dos relatórios financeiros dentro do setor de saúde. O período de análise abrangeu os anos de 2019 a 2021. A mensuração da comparabilidade foi realizada utilizando o modelo denominado “similaridade da função contábil”, que foi desenvolvido por De Franco, Kothari e Verdi (2011). Os resultados demonstram que, nos anos de 2020 e 2021, a comparabilidade dos relatórios financeiros no setor de saúde foi inferior em comparação a 2019. Essa descoberta demonstra o impacto negativo causado pela pandemia na qualidade e uniformidade das informações contábeis fornecidas pelas empresas do setor de saúde. No entanto, é notável que, apesar do início da vacinação e da gradual retomada das atividades econômicas em 2021 e 2022, não foi observada uma melhora na comparabilidade em relação a 2020. Isso sugere que os desafios relacionados à apresentação de informações financeiras coerentes e comparáveis persistem, mesmo com a mitigação dos efeitos da pandemia. Uma vez que afetam não apenas as empresas do setor de saúde, mas também investidores, reguladores e outras partes interessadas que dependem de relatórios financeiros precisos e comparáveis para tomar decisões bem balizadas, os resultados comprovam a redução da qualidade das demonstrações financeiras. Portanto, esse estudo destaca a necessidade de um aprimoramento contínuo dos processos contábeis e de divulgação de informações dentro desse setor, a fim de garantir maior transparência e confiabilidade nos relatórios financeiros.

Southeast Sulawesi Province has great mining potential to support Indonesia's national mining. Especially in Bombana Regency, it has the potential for gold mining, but with mining activities, the mining area becomes nutrient-poor and toxic. Based on this research, we observed the levels of pH, mercury (Hg), Total Suspended Solid (TSS), Copper (Cu) that accumulated in the waters around the gold mining area. The results showed that the pH level in sector 1 was 9.5 and sector 2 was 9.72. The Hg level also shows -0.0021 mg/L and -0.0014 mg/L. On the other hand, the high TSS content for sector 1 was 930 mg/L due to the sampling point being very close to the gold mining sector, while sector 2 started to decline by 410 mg/L. Cu analysis showed the same value, namely -0.00032 mg/L, it was concluded that the gold quality in sectors 1 and 2 had the same grade.

Effect of exchange rate volatility on financial reporting of consumer goods firms in Nigeria (2019 – 2023)
Authors: Ike, R. C.  , Abani, M. O.  , Anuolam M. O.
Published: September 2024

This study examines the effect of exchange rate volatility (ERV) on financial reporting of consumer goods firms in Nigeria. Ex-post facto research design was adopted for this study. Data were sourced from the published annual reports of fourteen consumer goods firms listed on the Nigeria Exchange (NGX) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Statistical Bulletin for the period 2019-2023. The analysis employed the Panel Error Correction-Generated Least Squares (EGLS) method, focusing on three key financial metrics: Earnings Per Share (EPS), Current Ratio, and Debt-to-Equity Ratio. The findings reveal that ERV has a significant positive effect on EPS. Conversely, a significant negative effect is observed on the current ratio. However, the effect on the debt-to-equity ratio is found to be insignificant, suggesting that ERV does not substantially influence capital structure decisions. The study recommends that firms should continue to develop and implement robust strategies to manage the impacts of ERV, such as hedging, strategic pricing, and cost control measures, to safeguard and potentially enhance their financial performance during periods of exchange rate fluctuations.

Estimation of Canada's methane emissions: inverse modelling analysis using the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) measurement network
Authors: Ishizawa Misa , Chan Douglas , Worthy Doug , Chan Elton , Vogel Felix , Melton Joe R. , Arora Vivek K.
Published: September 2024

Abstract. Canada has major sources of atmospheric methane (CH4), with the world's second-largest boreal wetland and the world's fourth-largest natural gas production. However, Canada's CH4 emissions remain uncertain among estimates. Better quantification and characterization of Canada's CH4 emissions are critical for climate mitigation strategies. To improve our understanding of Canada's CH4 emissions, we performed an ensemble regional inversion for 2007–2017 constrained with the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) surface measurement network. The decadal CH4 estimates show no significant trend, unlike some studies that reported long-term trends. The total CH4 estimate is 17.4 (15.3–19.5) Tg CH4 yr−1, partitioned into natural and anthropogenic sources at 10.8 (7.5–13.2) and 6.6 (6.2–7.8) Tg CH4 yr−1, respectively. The estimated anthropogenic emission is higher than inventories, mainly in western Canada (with the fossil fuel industry). Furthermore, the results reveal notable spatiotemporal characteristics. First, the modelled differences in atmospheric CH4 among the sites show improvement after inversion when compared to observations, implying the CH4 observation differences could help in verifying the inversion results. Second, the seasonal variations show slow onset and a late-summer maximum, indicating wetland CH4 flux has hysteretic dependence on air temperature. Third, the boreal winter natural CH4 emissions, usually treated as negligible, appear quantifiable (≥ 20 % of annual emissions). Understanding winter emission is important for climate prediction, as the winter in Canada is warming faster than the summer. Fourth, the inter-annual variability in estimated CH4 emissions is positively correlated with summer air temperature anomalies. This could enhance Canada's natural CH4 emission in the warming climate.

Abstract. Dry deposition plays a vital role in the aerosol removal process from the atmosphere. However, the chemical transport model (CTM) is sensitive to the dry deposition parameterization and yet remains to be determined due to the limited particle deposition measurement. By utilizing the CMAQv5.4 with the refined dust emission treatment (Kong et al., 2024), the East Asian dust (EAD) simulation during January 2023 was constructed to evaluate the performance of dry deposition parameterizations developed by PR11 (Pleim and Ran, 2011), E20 (Emerson et al., 2020), S22 (Shu et al., 2022) and P20 (Pleim et al., 2022), respectively. The result showed that the dry deposition parameterization could significantly improve the CMAQ dust emission treatment. By implementing the E20 dry deposition scheme, the CMAQ simulation performance of the surface PM10 has been considerably improved with the NMB of -41.9 %, as compared to the dry deposition proposed by PR11 (54.05 %), S22 (-47.01 %) and P22 (-53.90 %). The modeled PM10 pattern by E20 at the upper level (700 hPa) was mostly consistent with the observed PM10 at the Lulin Atmospheric Background Station (LABS; 23.47° N, 120.87° E; 2862 m a.s.l.) where is a typical background site at Western Pacific, particularly in capturing the peak value. The high-altitude correlations (R) were well performed for E20 by 0.55, as compared to PR11 (0.47), S22 (0.54) and P22 (0.46). Moreover, E20 improved the simulated aerosol optical depth (AOD) value during the multiple dust storm in spring 2021. The noticeable reduction of the coarse mode particle's deposition velocity (Vd­) was responsible for resolving the PM10 simulation underestimation. Moreover, the significant improvement of PM10 was also shown by the modeled PM2.5 On 22–31 January 2023, the in-situ measurement of the upper level observed the possibility of natural dust and anthropogenic aerosol. This is consistent with the CMAQ, which shows that both aerosol types displayed a clear "long dust-black carbon belt" along the 15°N. We proposed implementing the E20 dry deposition approach, resolving the uncertainty of the CMAQ dust emission treatment.
Accelerated pseudo-transient method for elastic, viscoelastic, and coupled hydro-mechanical problems with applications
Authors: Alkhimenkov Yury , Podladchikov Yury Y.
Published: September 2024

Abstract. The Accelerated Pseudo-Transient (APT) method is a matrix-free approach used to solve partial differential equations (PDEs), characterized by its reliance on local operations, which makes it highly suitable for parallelization. With the advent of the memory-wall phenomenon around 2005, where memory access speed overtook floating-point operations as the bottleneck in high-performance computing, the APT method has gained prominence as a powerful tool for tackling various PDEs in geosciences. Recent advancements have demonstrated the APT method's computational efficiency, particularly when applied to quasi-static nonlinear problems using Graphical Processing Units (GPUs). This manuscript presents a comprehensive analysis of the APT method, focusing on its application to quasi-static elastic, viscoelastic, and coupled hydro-mechanical problems, specifically those governed by quasi-static Biot's poroelastic equations, across 1D, 2D, and 3D domains. We systematically investigate the optimal numerical parameters required to achieve rapid convergence, offering valuable insights into the method's applicability and efficiency for a range of physical models. Our findings are validated against analytical solutions, underscoring the robustness and accuracy of the APT method in both homogeneous and heterogeneous media. We explore the influence of boundary conditions, non-linearities, and coupling on the optimal convergence parameters, highlighting the method's adaptability in addressing complex and realistic scenarios. To demonstrate the flexibility of the APT method, we apply it to the nonlinear mechanical problem of strain localization using a poro-elasto-viscoplastic rheological model, achieving extremely high resolutions – 10,0002 voxels in 2D and 5123 voxels in 3D – that, to our knowledge, have not been previously explored for such models. Our study contributes significantly to the field by providing a robust framework for the effective implementation of the APT method in solving challenging geophysical problems. Importantly, the results presented in this paper are fully reproducible, with Matlab, symbolic Maple scripts, and CUDA C codes made available in a permanent repository.
Shoreline and land use–land cover changes along the 2004-tsunami-affected South Andaman coast: understanding changing hazard susceptibility

Published: September 2024

Abstract. The 2004 tsunami affected the South Andaman coast, causing it to experience dynamic changes in the coastal geomorphology and making the region vulnerable. We focus on pre-and post-tsunami shoreline and land use–land cover changes from 2004, 2005, and 2022 to analyze the dynamic change in hazard. We used General Bathymetric Chart of the Ocean (GEBCO) data to calculate run-up [m], arrival times [min], and inundation [m] at a few locations using three tsunamigenic earthquake source parameters, namely the 2004 Sumatra, 1941 North Andaman, and 1881 Car Nicobar earthquakes. The Digital Shoreline Analysis System is used for the shoreline change estimates. Landsat data are used to calculate shoreline and land use–land cover (LULC) change in five classes, namely built-up areas, forests, inundation areas, croplands, and water bodies during the above period. We examine the correlation between the LULC changes and the dynamic change in shoreline due to population flux, infrastructural growth, and gross state domestic product growth. The Indian industry estimates the Andaman and Nicobar Islands losses exceeded INR 10 billion during 2004, which would today see a 5-fold increase in economic loss due to a doubling of built-up area, a 3-fold increase in tourist inflow, and population density growth. The unsustainable decline in the forest cover, mangroves, and cropland would affect sustainability during a disaster despite coastal safety measures.

Operation and Maintenance Planning of Concentrated Solar Thermal Tower Plants: Soiling Mitigation and Receiver Control
Authors:   , Anderson Cody
Published: September 2024

Concentrated solar power (CSP) faces high operation and maintenance costs, partly due to soiling of heliostats reducing plant productivity. Existing models lack completeness, ignoring moisture effects and cleaning optimization. This research aims to characterize soiling processes, refine cleaning techniques, and optimize resources for CSP sites. It includes understanding moisture effects, refining cleaning models, and developing a cleaning optimization methodology for CSP sites. Additionally, a receiver controller performance metric is tested to improve receiver lifespan. These tools reduce O&M costs and enhance solar tower technology performance.
