A Comparison between Intrathecal Nalbuphine versus Fentanyl as an Adjuvant with 0.5% Hyperbaric Bupivacaine for Postoperative Analgesia in Parturients Undergoing Lower Segment Cesarean Section
Authors: Jain Neena , Sethi Surendra K. , Saini Amrit L. , Patodi Veena , Jain Kavita , Thada Beena
Published: September 2022

Background:

Nalbuphine when used as an adjuvant to hyperbaric bupivacaine has improved the quality of perioperative analgesia. Fentanyl is a lipophilic opioid with a rapid onset and does not cause respiratory depression and improves duration of sensory anesthesia without producing significant side effects. The aim of this study was to compare intrathecal nalbuphine and fentanyl as adjuvants to hyperbaric bupivacaine for postoperative analgesia in lower segment cesarean section.

Methods:

A total of 100 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status (PS) I and II parturients were enrolled for lower segment cesarean section. Parturients were randomly allocated into 2 groups - Group F (n = 50) received bupivacaine 0.5% (heavy) 1.6 ml (8 mg) + fentanyl 20 μg (0.4 ml) and Group N (n = 50) received bupivacaine 0.5% (heavy) 1.6 ml (8 mg) + nalbuphine 0.4 mg (0.4 ml) under subarachnoid block (total volume = 2 ml). Time of onset and duration of sensory and motor block, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score, duration of analgesia, sedation, rescue analgesic consumption, APGAR score, hemodynamic changes and adverse effects were noted.

Results:

Onset of sensory and motor block were significantly faster in Group F while duration of sensory block was significantly longer in Group N (P < 0.05). Duration of analgesia was also significantly longer in Group N (214.34 ± 9.31 min) compared to Group F (195.00 ± 9.18 min) (P < 0.001). No significant hemodynamic changes and adverse effects were noted in both groups (P > 0.05).

Conclusion:

Both of these drugs can be effectively used as an adjuvant to hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine in subarachnoid block for parturients undergoing lower segment cesarean section.

Published: September 2022

Context:

The effect of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on a parturient undergoing cesarean delivery (CD) is not fully understood.

Aims:

To evaluate anesthetic management of a COVID parturient undergoing CD.

Settings and Design:

Tertiary care hospital, retrospective analysis.

Methodology:

Hospital case record files of COVID-19 parturients who underwent CD were reviewed with respect to clinical presentation, anesthetic technique, peri-operative course, and maternal-fetal outcome.

Data Analysis:

Continuous variables are reported as mean ± SD or median (range) and categorical variables as numbers (percentages).

Results:

Hundred COVID-19 parturients underwent CD: Ninety-eight parturients had asymptomatic to mild clinical presentation, whereas two had a severe presentation. Raised liver enzymes, raised D-dimer, and thrombocytopenia were observed in 65, 34, and 11 parturients, respectively. Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA), subarachnoid block (SAB), and general anesthesia were administered in 72, 26, and 2 parturients, respectively. Meantime to administration of SAB and CSEA were 23.5 ± 3.2 min and 28.4 ± 2.8 min, respectively. Adequate block height for CD was achieved in all parturients. Post-spinal hypotension that responded promptly to fluids and vasopressors was reported in six parturients. Postoperatively, two parturients required intensive care unit (ICU) care with one maternal mortality. None of the neonates tested positive for COVID-19. Three neonates had a low Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration (APGAR) at 5 min with one neonatal mortality.

Conclusions:

Neuraxial anesthesia seems to be a safe and preferred anesthetic technique for CD in a COVID-19 parturient. The incidence of post-spinal hypotension is low and responds promptly to treatment. The course of neuraxial anesthesia and the neonatal outcome is unaffected by the COVID-19 status of the patient.

Authors: Fredrick Kalande
Published: September 2022

Intermittent calf pain is also called claudication. It is common in patients with spinal canal stenosis or those with peripheral vascular occlusion disorders. It is rarely found in local muscle pathology. We herein report a case of a 50-year-old man who presented with left-sided calf pain on mild exertion. On evaluation, the systemic review was normal, with no spondylosis or vascular pathology, but with local fatty degeneration in the gastrocnemius, which was causing the calf pain. He was given analgesics and underwent physiotherapy and counseling, and his condition improved over 6 months.

Published: September 2022

Over the years, Nsukka Local Government Area (LGA) of Enugu state, Nigeria has been experiencing a slow rate of development. Based on this therefore, this work was designed to investigate the drivers of socio-economic and cultural factors militating against rural development in Nsukka Local Government Area. A purposeful sampling was used to select one hundred (100) respondents in each of the five rural Villages, making it a total of 500 respondents. Questionnaire was the instrument used for data collection. Data was represented using simple percentages, charts, and Chi-square.  of the 500 questionnaires shared, 483 were correctly and completely filled and analyzed using SPSS. The findings revealed that traditional belief system, gender segregation, land use system, mismanagement of project funds, poor execution of projects and non-involvement of community members in planning and execution of rural development projects constitute some of the drivers of socio-economic and cultural factors militating against rural development in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu state, Nigeria.  The result also showed that there was a statistically significant relationship (P <.033) between respondents’ level of education and participation in rural development. Finally it was recommended that rural people should learn to welcome and harness development despite their cultural belief system and there should be a collaborative effort of the government and the people, more especially the youths in planning and implementation of rural development projects.
Geospatial assessment of land use/cover, rainfall, and flood incidents in Eti–Osa, Lagos, Nigeria
Authors: Onajomo Toka Sunday
Published: September 2022

Flooding in Lagos State has been on the rise in the past two decades, especially in the Eti-Osa area of the state. This is largely due to the increased volume of rainfall associated with climate variability and sea level rise. Flooding incidents have led to loss of lives and properties. The objective of this study is to examine the dynamics of flood occurrences in the Eti-Osa area of Lagos metropolis. Rainfall data for the area covering a period of 30 years (1990 to 2019) were obtained from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMET) in Lagos, and analyzed using the basic descriptive statistical technique. The purpose was to evaluate rainfall characteristics that were influencing flooding events in the area. Furthermore, remotely sensed multi-date Landsat imageries of 1990, 1997, 2001, 2012, and 2017 were obtained, and analyzed to determine how land use and land cover characteristics have changed and have been affected by flooding over the study period. The data were subjected to digital image processing and supervised classification was carried out on the images of the various dates. Results showed that flooding became prevalent as more areas became built up and as vegetated areas declined. Also, flooding events appeared to be responsive to the climatic extremes. Moreover, poor drainage, increased population number s, and non-compliance to building and current environmental regulations were key factors that exacerbated the increased prevalence of flooding in the area. The study recommended that flood control policies, including land-use planning for the area, need to be pursued urgently.
Petrology and geochemistry of bimodal volcanic rocks of Southern Lake Hayk area, northwestern Ethiopian plateau: implication for their petrogenesis
Authors: Berlie Getie , Dereje Dereje , Assen Mohammed
Published: September 2022

This study presents and integrates field, petrological, and whole-rock geochemical (major and trace elements) data of the volcanic rocks from the Lake Hayk area to understand their petrogenesis. The study area's major lithological components include lower and upper basalt, rhyolitic lava, rhyolitic tuff, rhyolitic ignimbrite, and unwelded tuff. Petrographic analysis suggests that felsic rocks are dominated by quartz and well-developed sanidine (K-feldspar) phenocrysts with glassy groundmass, whereas mafic volcanic products are characterized by aphyric to porphyritic textures with the olivine and plagioclase dominant phenocryst. The area constitutes bimodal composition of flood basaltic to rhyolitic rock with scarce intermediate composition. Basalts have low Rb/Nb = 0.5-0.58, La/Nb = 0.88-1.06 and high TiO2 = 2.08-3.04, basaltic andecite have higher Rb/Nb =2.7, La/Nb = 1.81 and low TiO2= 1.96 and rhyolite Rb/Nb = 0.97-1.69, La/Nb = 0.51-1.08 and lower TiO2 = 0.41- 0.71.The positive Ba and negative K anomalies testify amphibole mantle source. The basalts are characterized by low CaO/Al2O3 ratios (0.71–0.97) and relatively less fractionated and flat hree patterns with (TbN/YbN = 1.75-2.33) chondritic values. This suggests a mantle source mostly containing spinel rather than garnet. Rhyolites are characterized by a steep negative correlation in bivariate plots of MgO, Fe2O3, TiO, and CaO against SiO2 and positive anomaly of Ta with slight Nb trough.  This suggests that Fractional Crystallization is the major process for the genesis of rhyolitic rocks, rather than crustal contribution, partial melting, and assimilation, producing rhyolitic rocks.

Published: September 2022

Submerged macrophytes play an important role in aquatic ecosystems and are widely used in aquatic ecological restoration. However, when submerged macrophytes fade, litter, or even decompose, they may cause adverse effects on water quality. In this article, indoor experiments were carried out to study the quantitative influence of submerged plant decomposition on water quality. Six submerged macrophytes commonly used in aquatic ecological restoration in Sichuan Province, including Elodea canadensis Michx., Potamogeton wrightii Morong, Potamogeton crispus L., Vallisneria spinulosa, Ceratophyllum demersum L., and Potamogeton pectinatus L., were selected to measure the change processes of nutrients during macrophyte decomposition at 10°C, 20°C and 30°C. The results showed that the decomposition of submerged plants released nutrients into the water body, causing water pollution. At 10°C, the total phosphorus (TP) concentration of water bodies containing submerged plant litter increased by 1.97 to 5.97 times on the 50th day compared to the 5th day, while the TP concentration of the blank control group without hydrophytes decreased from 0.39 mg.L-1 to 0.22 mg.L-1 due to self-purification. The ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) concentration increased by 3.82-9.58 times on the 50th day compared with the 5th day, while the value in the blank control group decreased from 1.42 mg.L-1 to 0.78 mg.L-1. This result indicated that the water body had a certain self-purification ability, but the decomposition of aquatic macrophytes had a negative impact on this progress. Increasing temperatures could accelerate plant decay processes. Initially, the concentrations of NH3-N and TP were high with high temperatures. After 45 days of reaction, the NH3-N and TP concentration in the water bodies appeared to be 30°C<20°C<10°C, indicating that decomposition was further advanced when the temperature was higher. This study provides a theoretical basis for water ecological management and water quality protection.

Visions for Justice and Critiquing Consent
Authors: Morgan Chelsey
Published: September 2022

In lieu of an abstract, here's an excerpt: 

"We live in a society built on a foundation of oppressive systems and upheld by the vilification of boundaries. Consent is our answer to that. It’s the reclamation of power for the powerless and the notion of its failure, in any context, is activating and at times, can even be re-traumatizing. In entertainment, Intimacy specializations in live performance, film and television were born to prevent re-traumatization and facilitate the end of the collective experience of dehumanization in our industry. [...] However, there are often moments in creative processes where the more ‘black and white’ definitions of consent as freely communicated, retractable and informed fail to acknowledge moments where past trauma, power dynamics, and a lifetime of systemically ingrained silence create ambiguity. [...] the purpose of this essay is to highlight the expansive and revolutionary opportunities that exist when we move away from treating any word, framework or methodology as absolute truth. It’s an invitation to re-examine the best of solutions, to identify the gaps, and to find new methods of filling them. In order to do that, we need to identify the language of the industry, align our definitions, and dissect them."
Asserting Boundaries and Conflict Resolution with "A Midsummer Night’s Dream"
Authors: Bolon Matthias
Published: September 2022

This paper explores an applied theatre workshop using William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream for educating university students on techniques to assert boundaries, communicate effectively, and resolve conflict. Choosing to focus on the four major relationships within A Midsummer Night’s Dream provides theatrical scenarios for students to learn about unhealthy desire, miscommunicated feelings, unrequited love, and consenting relationships. Using these predetermined scenes, a barrier is created between students’ potential personal experiences and the work they will do in this workshop to reduce the possibility of retraumatizing participants. By the end of the workshop students are expected to have the confidence and techniques to assert physical and emotional boundaries, and have the language to communicate problems and resolve conflict.
A Genre Analysis Approach in Teaching Marine Electrical Engineers Texts
Authors:   University of Montenegro, Faculty of Maritime Studies Kotor, Kotor, Montenegro, Dževerdanović Pejović Milena
Published: September 2022

Genre analysis has become a prevalent approach in the linguistic analysis of various specialized genres. A concept of genre, emerging from literature, has received a broader dimension in the last decade, focusing on establishing recognized structures and language exponents of a specific genre in a particular discourse community. In addition, the expansion of ESP and the rise of subgenres in many rising professional vocations require users to have competence in the English language. In addition, language researchers need ‘to dig into’ the pragmatic context of genres. With this mind and resting on the concept of genre and discourse communities, the paper sheds light on how the genre analysis approach can be applied in teaching different marine electrical genres to students and future ETO officers. The marine electrical engineering discourse community is specific and relatively novel. In this paper, the focus is placed on seafarers, future electro-technical officers and the analysis of genres they utilize in their professional work on board ships. The results of the paper can be inspiring to ESP teachers involved in teaching specialized and technical genres.

There must have been part of your childhood which reminds you of a video game you could not resist! Do you remember the thrill while playing games like Tetris, Pac-Man or Super Mario? Times have changed and games have become even more colourful, more demanding, and more complicated, but that feeling of playing games has remained the same. People who often practice this activity, especially children, become addicted in some way but they are not aware of that. There is a question: How can we use games as a learning strategy that can facilitate children’s motivation of learning? When we create breakout games and escape rooms we reach our aim, students learn while they are playing games. They have to use their reasoning, knowledge, and skills to solve puzzles and challenges related to the content of the curriculum of native and foreign languages. What is more important, in these strategies, students must work as a team which leads to a better classroom atmosphere, and a better score in pro-social behaviours. If you go a step forward and involve students in creating games on their own, with contents from language classes, then you will succeed in creating STE(A)M classes.

One of the many efforts by governments to decrease disease during COVID-19 pandemic was reducing social contact and distance learning. In the long run, these decisions had ramifications beyond the risk of contracting the virus. Young people studying at universities have been deprived of contacts with their peers and forced to efficiently use technology for the purpose of acquiring knowledge. It required the ability to maintain or regain mental health despite experiencing difficulties that is called “resilience”. The main aim of this paper is to present the results of quantitative analysis of the perceived stress, cyber and psychological resilience of Polish students. The analyses show that majority of students use digital devices in an informed and safe manner while most of them presented high levels of stress and rather low or medium resilience, which may raise questions about the positive adaptation of students to remote learning and coping with pandemic situations in general.

The National Health Insurance whose implementation began in January 2014 made changes to the payment system from the Retrospective Paymant System to the Prospective Payment System with INA-CBG's rates. The implementation of JKN INA-CBG's is a fundamental problem so Tarumajaya Hospital Bekasi must make efforts to achieve quality and cost control. The purpose of this study was to determine the efforts taken by the hospital regarding the difference in outpatient service hospital rates with INA-CBG's rates. The research method was carried out quantitatively and qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of JKN at Tarumajaya Hospital Bekasi has been carried out well, but there are still some things that are expected and must be improved. Human resources at Tarumajaya Hospital Bekasi in carrying out the JKN program are still not optimal in terms of quantity and quality, due to the lack of availability of human resources for specialist doctors, clinical pathology specialists, radiology specialists, urology specialists at Tarumajaya Hospital Bekasi is one of the problems faced and can hinder program implementation. JKN, even though it is really needed by the surrounding community because it is far from other health services and will affect the health services at Tarumajaya Hospital Bekasi. The facilities and infrastructure of the Tarumajaya Bekasi Hospital are still lacking in providing health services, including the availability of medical devices and facilities such as hemodialysis, special room facilities and operating rooms, only one is available, as well as the availability of rooms that are still limited so patients must be referred. External factors such as cross-sectoral roles are still less concerned with their role in JKN, seen from the role of the Regional Government which is difficult to meet because they are busy with other matters, as well as the Health Office because of the existence of JKN. if other problems have to deal with BPJS.

Industrialization helps meet human needs quickly and can harm human health if not properly monitored. The people of East Penfui Village feel the impact of PT Bumi Indah's activities in the form of dust and noise. This study aims to determine the relationship between dust and noise with the incidence of acute respiratory infection and hearing loss. This research is a quantitative research with a cross sectional approach. The study population consisted of 40 employees of PT Bumi Indah and 171 affected communities. The sample consisted of 30 employees of PT Bumi Indah and 30 other affected communities who were determined using a purposive sampling technique. Data were obtained through surveys, interviews and measurement with tools. Data were analyzed by univariate, bivariate and multivariate. The results showed that there was a relationship between dust and acute respiratory infection  (p = 0.003) and OR = 5.5, meaning that the risk of acute respiratory infection illness in people exposed to dust that did not meet the requirements was 5.5 times greater than people who were not exposed to dust that did not meet the requirements. . There is a relationship between age and the incidence of acute respiratory infection (p = 0.030) and OR = 9.0, meaning that the incidence of acute respiratory infection in people aged 35 years or more is 9.0 times greater than in people under 35 years of age. There is a relationship between length of exposure to hearing loss (p=0.0001) and OR=12.0, meaning that the risk of hearing loss in people exposed for 5 years or more is 12.0 times greater than in people exposed for less than 5 years. There is a relationship between age and hearing loss (p = 0.019) and OR = 4.2, meaning that the risk of hearing loss in people aged 35 years or over is 4.2 times greater than in people under 35 years of age. The most dominant risk factor for the incidence of acute respiratory infection in communities affected by PT Bumi Indah's activities is the length of exposure with p = 0.0001 and OR = 8.32. The most dominant risk factor for hearing loss in the community affected by PT Bumi Indah's activities is the length of exposure with p = 0.0001 and OR = 21.54. It is suggested to PT Bumi Indah to provide personal protective equipment for workers, routinely watering the roads traversed by the company's vehicles, closing the trunk of the truck when loading materials, making portals at a certain distance to reduce vehicle noise. For the Kupang Regency Government to repair roads and carry out regular monitoring of PT Bumi Indah's activities and their impact on the environment and public health.

Published: September 2022

Psoriasis is a type of Kushta known as Kitibha Kushtha, occurring mainly due to imbalance of Vata and Kapha doshas. It is immune-mediated disease clinically characterised by thickened rough skin lesions, scaling, itching and in some cases, it covers entire body, but palmoplantar psoriasis is mostly restricted to palms & sole of the feet. Modern medical science treats psoriasis but the disease has high recurrence rate and these medicines have severe side effects. Owing to these reasons, there is a need of treatment which have good efficacy with no side effects. So this study was conducted considering Psoriasis as Kitibha Kushta and Ayurvedic management planned accordingly. Drastic results were witnessed by Ayurvedic oral (Gandhak Rasayan vati, Arogya Vardhini vati, Aragvadhadi Kashay Mahatiktaka ghruta , Raspachak yoga ) and local ( Mahamarichyadi tail) medicines with short span of time.
The Optimal Time Window for Complex Training in Order to Increase Repeated Sprint Ability in Professional Ice Hockey Players

ABSTRACT

The goal of this study was to investigate the post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) and optimal time window following complex training (CT) to increase ice-hockey player skating speed and endurance. Ten professional ice-hockey players (age= 19.8±1.23 years, height= 1.8± 0.06 m, weight= 83.37±4.79 Kg,) from the American Hockey League (AHL, n=7) and the National Hockey League (NHL, n=3) were assigned randomly into two groups. Both groups completedthe same CT training protocol, designed to induce post-activation potentiation (PAP). One group completed the training 8 hours prior to testing (8HPT), and the other 4 hours (4HPT) before testing. The CT PAP training protocol consisted of 3 sets of 5 repetitions of trap high bar deadlifts superset with 6 box jumps on a 20-inch plyometric box. The effect of CT PAP training on performance was assessed using the following testing: the countermovement jump (CMJ), the static squat jump (SSJ), the stationary broad jump (BJ), reactive strength index (RSI), eccentric utilization ratio (EUR), the double leg incremental drop jump tests (DJ), and on ice 40 meter sprint time during the Peterson On-Ice repeated shift Test (POIT). Results showed significant improvements for both groups for the after CT PAP training for the SJ (4HPT: p= 0.04), BJ (8HPT: p= 0.02; 4HPT: p=0.03), POIT (8HPT: Sprint 4, 5, 6, 8: p<0.05; 4HPT: Sprint 2, 3: p<0.05), POIT total sprint time (8HPT: p= 0. 01), mean 40-meter sprint time (8HPT: Sprint 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8: p<0.05; 4HPT: Sprint 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7: p<0.05), and total 40 meter sprint time (8HPT and 4HPT: Sprint 2 p= 0.03). However, no significant difference (p≥0.05) was found following CT PAP training for the CMJ, DJ, and RPE. Thus, the present study suggests that PAP has a greater effect on jumping and on ice-hockey repeated sprint performance when completed 8 hours before. Nonetheless, CT PAP training appears to be beneficial to improve the rate of force development and performance when performed more than 4 hours before the competition in professional North-American ice-hockey players. The present protocol and timing window can be utilized by strength and conditioning specialists to improve on-ice repeated sprint performance of professional ice-hockey players.

Nitrogen is one of the key growth factors and structural constituent of the cellular molecules of Nannochloropsis sp. This study aimed to determine the influence of nitrogen stress in the form of potassium nitrate (KNO3 ) by altering the standard recommended nitrogen concentration to characterize the growth performance, proximate composition, and pigments content. The nitrogen concentration was arranged in following order for the culture of Nannochloropsis sp.: 50 g/L, 75 g/L, 100 g/L (standard), 125 g/L, and 150 g/L of KNO3 . All growth parameters, proximate composition, and pigment contents showed significant (p < 0.05) changes among the treatments. Cell density was increased by 2.48 folds, SGR was increased by 56.9%, and cells were doubled in number at a pace of 12.192 hours faster at the maximum nitrogen concentration (150g/L KNO3 ). The maximum protein content was 54 ± 1.05% at 150 g/L KNO3 while the highest lipid content was 36 ± 0.32% at 75 g/L KNO3 . The highest carbohydrate content was 24 ± 2.51% at 100 g/L KNO3 . The chlorophyll a content was increased to 0.632 ± 0.049 µg/L at 150 g/L KNO3 , while the highest carotenoids content was 3.301 ± 0.052 µg/ml at the 75g/L KNO3 . On the other hand, phycobiliprotein content was the highest 0.028 mg/g for the standard concentration of KNO3 . This study provides the commercial cultivation strategy for Nannochloropsis sp. by revealing the biomass productivity, biochemical and bioactive compounds status at different nitrogen-based culture conditions that will ensure their multipurpose use in aquaculture, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals sectors.
O Heráclito de Erixímaco no Banquete 186e4-187c4; The Heraclitus of Eryximachus at the Symposium 186e4-187c4
Authors: De Campos Rogério G.
Published: September 2022

O médico Erixímaco, representado por Platão no Banquete, faz uma menção à filosofia de Heráclito, destacando uma hipótese do que Heráclito talvez desejasse dizer quando opõe concordância e discordância. O emaranhado de problemas que dessa citação emergem não se presta a respostas definitivas, entretanto aqui aproximaremos alguns elementos colhidos no tratado hipocrático Da dieta (De victu) 4-6 e do pseudo-hipocrático Do nutriente (De alimento) que sugerem uma linha interpretativa plausível para essa menção sobre Heráclito e esse heraclitismo aplicado à medicina.
Abstract
The physician Eryximachus, represented by Plato in the Symposium, mentions the philosophy of Heraclitus, highlighting a hypothesis of what Heraclitus meant when he opposes agreement and disagreement. The tangle of problems that emerge from this quote does not lend itself to definitive answers, however, here we will approach some elements collected in the Hippocratic treatise On Regime (De victu) 4-6, and in the pseudo-Hippocratic treatise De alimento that suggest a plausible interpretative line for this mention of Heraclitus and this Heraclitism applied to medicine.
