Prototype Hybrid Power Plant of Solar Panel and Vertical Wind Turbine as a Provider of Alternative Electrical Energy at Kenjeran Beach Surabaya
Authors: Anggara Trisna Nugraha  , Priyambodo Dadang
Published: December 2020

Indonesia, which is a tropical country, has a very large potential for solar energy because of its area that stretches across the equator, with a radiation magnitude of 4.80 kWh / m2 / day or equivalent to 112,000 GWp. On the other hand, the earth receives solar power of 1.74 x 1017 W / hour and about 1-2% of it is converted into wind energy. However, from the total energy potential, Indonesia has only utilized around 10 MWp for solar energy and not much different, wind energy, whose utilization is planned to reach 250 MW in 2025, has only been utilized around 1 MW of the total existing potential. With this potential, to be able to supply additional power and help save energy for existing facilities in the building, a Prototype of Solar Panel Hybird and Vertical Axis Wind Turbine was created. The design of this prototype is a combination of savonious type turbines and solar panels, where the use of this type of turbine is because it can rotate at low wind speeds (low wind velocity) and its construction is very simple.
A OBSERVATIONAL STUDY OF ENDOSCOPIC REPAIR OF CSF RHINORRHOEA
Authors: Bhadra Bijoy Krishna , Biswas Soumen , Jana Debarshi
Published: December 2020

Background: Intrathecal fluorescein may be used to visualize CSF fistulas using a nasal endoscope. This allows the examiner to directly visualize the size of the defect, its location, and its rate of flow. The first repair of CSF leak was performed by Dandy in 1926 using a frontal craniotomy. This technique had a 60-80% success rate and was the gold standard for decades. In 1964Vrabec and Hallberg described the endonasal approach of CSF leak repair.
AIMS: This study aims to establish the success rate of endoscopic surgical repair of CSF rhinorrhoca.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted in Department of ENT IPGMER and SSKM Hospital. During the study period of 18 months, 30 patients have been admitted in our department with CSF leak (most of them were referred from neurosurgery).
RESULTS: Fat and fascia lata and temporalis fascia were used to repair CSF leak in 24 patients. Bath plug technique was applied for 3 patients. Repair with vascularised flap such as Hadad flap or middle turbinate graft were used in case of 3 patients. CSF rhinorrhoea repair was successful in 28 out of 30(94%) patients after primary surgery whereas recurrence occurred in 2(6%) cases. Among them 1 patient underwent second surgery which achieved definitive closure of the leak. But one case lost follow up and did not come for second surgery. Interval between surgery and recurrence was varied and so were the causes.
CONCLUSION: CSF rhinorrhoea cases can be repaired by an endoscopic approach with a high success rate. Radiological investigation of PNS and brain are equally important for selection of cases for endoscopic repair. Spontaneous leak must be checked cautiously to exclude features of raised ICT. Relapse occurs mainly for failure to delineate actual site or sites of leak and inadequate size or faulty placement of graft. Success depends not only on surgical skill but also on baseline intracranial tension, cause & site of leak and postoperative care.

Authors: Krishnegowda Madhunandan , Yadav Rohan
Published: December 2020

Backgound: In paediatric emergencies acute poisoning is frequently encountered and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. There is natural division of acute poisoning in paediatric population in to two groups i.e. young children and adolescents. The first group comprises of young children who innocently ingest small amount of single substances. Second group comprises of adolescents who purposefully ingest substantial quantity of multiple substances secondary to emotional outburst or psychiatric illness. This study aimed to study the clinical, toxicological profile and outcome of Acute poisoning in paediatric population in Adichunchanagiri institute of medical sciences, Mandya, Karnataka, India.
Subjects and methods: This is a retrospective observational study done from January 2018- December 2019, in Adichunchanagiri institute of medical sciences, Mandya, Karnataka, India, involving childhood poisoning. Data was noted on a predesigned proforma, it was compiled and entered in MS Excel spread sheet; descriptive statistics was applied.
Results: Out of 50 cases 24 cases (48%) were males and 26 cases (52%) were females. Majority of cases were distributed in the age group of 1-4 years 24 cases (48%), followed by 15-18 years 19 cases (38%). Suicidal poisoning was more seen in adolescent females 15 cases (30%). Pesticide and insecticide remains the most common toxic agent i.e. 21 cases (42%), followed by hydrocarbons 16 cases (32%). 42 cases (84%) got improved, 5 cases (10%) got referred and there was 1 (2%) death. Majority of the cases (52%) got discharged between 1-3 days.
Conclusions: Pesticides and hydrocarbons remains most easily accessible toxins in rural area hence, are most commonly implicated toxins in childhood poisoning. Though poisoning remains worrisome problem, it is preventable.

Published: December 2020

Objectives: To measure and compare the levels of anticardiolipin(aCL), anti-β2-glycoprotein 1(aβ2gp1) and antinuclear(ANA) antibodies in children with idiopathic epilepsy, epilepsy due to neurocysticercosis (NCC) and healthy controls and to find their correlation with clinical profile and recurrence of seizures.
Methodology: Study included 36 idiopathic epilepsy cases (2 to 12 years), 36 age and sex matched healthy controls and 36 children of epilepsy due to NCC. Neuroimaging and EEG were done in all cases of idiopathic epilepsy. Levels of aCL, aβ2gp1 and ANA antibodies were measured using ELISA technique and compared among 3 groups.
Results: Idiopathic epilepsy cases were comparable to healthy controls based on age, anthropometry and hematological parameters. Among idiopathic epilepsy cases, mean aβ2gp 1 antibody levelswere 6.37±4.7 GPL U/mL compared to 4.66±1.61 GPL U/ml incontrols (p=0.044). aβ2gp1 antibody positivity (>12 GPL U/ml) was 11.1% in idiopathic epilepsy and none in controls (p=0.040). No significant difference was found between the levels of aCL and ANA antibody among idiopathic epilepsy cases and controls. Mean levels of aCL antibody in idiopathic epilepsy was 7.30±4.16 GPL U/ml as compared to 5.22±3.30 GPL U/ml in NCCcases (p=0.022). aCL antibody was positive (>10 GPL U/ml) in 12(33.33%) idiopathic epilepsy cases versus 5(13.9%) in cases with NCC (p=0.047). No significant difference was found between the levels of aβ2gp1 and ANA antibody among idiopathic epilepsy cases and NCC cases(p>0.05). Antibody levels were statistically similar when compared based on age, sex, seizure type, recurrence (p>0.05).
Conclusion: Antibody levels were higher in idiopathic epilepsy group compared to healthy controls with statistical significance in anti-β2-glycoprotein 1 antibody levels. Hence, autoimmunity has a role in idiopathic epilepsy.

Authors: Raj Naveen , Goel Rahul
Published: December 2020

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the efficacy of tamsulosin compared with the combination of tamsulosin with nifedipine for the management of lower ureteral calculi less than 10 mm in size.
MATERIAL AND METHOD:
The study included 80 patients with stones less than 10mm in size located in the lower (distal) ureter. The patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 patients (N-40) received 0.4mg tamsulosin once daily and nifedipine 5mg once daily. Group 2 (N-40) received 0.4mg tamsulosin once daily. Patients received analgesics and antispasmodics in addition.
RESULTS:
The average stone size was similar among the 2 groups. After the treatment with medication, stone expulsion in Group 1 was 34 out of 40. In Group 2 was 30 out of 40. The average time required for the expulsion of stone in Group 1 was 20.2 days and Group 2 was 27.6 days respectively.
So, a significantly higher rate of expulsion was noted in Group 1. However, some patients complained of headache, dizziness and postural hypotension.
CONCLUSION:
Study reveals that lower ureteric stones less than 10mm can be effectively managed by medical management. Hence, the combination therapy of tamsulosin with nifedipine is more effective than mono-therapy with tamsulosin.

Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE- Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is a routinely performed sequence in MRI for evaluation of acute ischemic stroke(AIS) and is highly sensitive in detection of early infarcts. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy, sensitivity and specificity of DWI for the diagnosis of AIS among patients with suspected AIS.
METHODS AND MATERIAL- In this study, all patients with clinically diagnosed AIS, aged >18 yrs, admitted in GGH, Kakinada, were imaged with a neuroimaging protocol using MRI with conventional and DWI.
AIMS-
1)To evaluate the accuracy of DWI and compare conventional MR imaging and DWI in the radiological diagnosis of AIS.
2)To evaluate the clinical efficacy, sensitivity, and specificity of DW MR imaging in patients with acute infarction.
3)To detect the frequency of false-negative DWI in acute stoke
RESULTS-
In present study 159 cases with final diagnosis of AIS, DWI has accuracy of 94.6%, FLAIR 88.7% and T2 79.2%.DWI detected additional ischemic lesions not identified on conventional sequences.DWI showed 81% sensitivity and 100% specificity in hyper acute stroke cases with presentation < 6hrs. DWI had high accuracy in cases presenting after 6hrs with abnormal signal on DWI noted in 142 out of 148 cases (95.37%).Over all sensitivity and specificity of DWI in suspected cases of AIS is 94.9% and 92.3% respectively .Negative DWI with AIS constituted approx 5% of cases, with localization to brain stem in 75% and non-brainstem lacunar stroke in 25%.All the false negative cases of AIS were imaged within 24hrs of symptom onset.
Of the 33 DWI negative cases of AIS, stroke mimics constituted (39.4%) cases with seizures as the most common mimics.
CONCLUSION- DWI is accurate imaging method than conventional MRI in detecting early lesions in AIS.
A COMPARATIVE AND RANDOMIZED STUDY BETWEEN TRANS ABDOMINAL PRE-PERITONEAL VERSUS TOTALLY EXTRA-PERITONEAL LAPAROSCOPIC TECHNIQUES OF INGUINAL HERNIA REPAIR
Authors: Agrawal Nikhil , Sen Swapnil
Published: December 2020

A hernia, an abnormal protrusion of an organ or tissue through a defect in its surrounding wall is a very common surgical problem. Approximately 75% of all hernias are usually groin hernias, among which 95% are inguinal region hernias. Various methods of repair have been employed which have progressed from open repair to various laparoscopic approaches. There is insufficient data to draw conclusions about the relative effectiveness of the two laparoscopic methods. Overall superiority of the two laparoscopic methods has not been demonstrated in available literature.
AIM: The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effectiveness and relative efficiency of laparoscopic TAPP and laparoscopic TEP for inguinal hernia repair.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Hospital based comparative randomised study on 100 patients admitted in General Surgical wards with Inguinal hernia at a tertiary care centre of Eastern India. Randomization in two groups was done by lottery system. A well designed proforma containing various parameters under study was used for data collection. Baseline information were collected via structured interview using predesigned questionnaire. For statistical analysis data were entered into a Microsoft excel spreadsheet and then analyzed by SPSS version 24 and GraphPad Prism version 5. Data had been summarized as mean and standard deviation for numerical variables and count and percentages for categorical variables. Two-sample t-tests for a difference in mean involved independent samples or unpaired samples. Paired t-tests were a form of blocking and had greater power than unpaired tests. A chi-squared test (χ2 test) was any statistical hypothesis test wherein the sampling distribution of the test statistic is a chi-squared distribution when the null hypothesis is true. Unpaired proportions were compared by Chi-square test or Fischer’s exact test, as appropriate.
RESULTS: TAPP was associated with significantly higher incidence of haematoma, length of hospital stay, early postoperative pain and longer operative time as compared to TEP. Visceral injury and vascular injury were found more in TAPP as compared to TEP but this was not statistically significant. Seroma, port site hernia, persisting numbness and mesh/deep infection was higher in group-A (TAPP) as compared to group-B (TEP) but this was not statistically significant. Conversion to open procedure and persistent pain were comparable among the two methods. Hernia recurrence rates were higher in the TEP group in this study although it was statistically insignificant.
CONCLUSION: TAPP was associated with significantly higher incidence of haematoma, length of hospital stay, early postoperative pain and longer operative time as compared to TEP.

Published: December 2020

Urban domestic solid waste in India contains 75-85 % organic substances. The uncontrolled dumping of this waste is a significant health concern. To solve this issue, degradation of organic waste by using microbial consortium is safe, efficient, and economical. Therefore, this study is done to recycle the domestic, green solid waste into active compost using a microbial consortium.
Antagonism assay is used to develop Bacterial consortia, thereby determining the concomitant enzyme production. A suitable consortium is further used to degrade 2 kg of organic solid waste producing compost. Analysis of the compost, showed: C-22.1%, N-0.78%, K-0.62ppm, P-0.51ppm, and S-0.24ppm. The proposed consortia had the highest decomposing capability compared to other consortia. Compost so produced, was reduced to 86% in mass, dark colored, with grainy texture lacking foul smell. It was observed that the C: N::21:1;and increased percentage of K, P, S, thereby contributing to enhance soil fertility.
The bacterial consortium so prepared serves as a vital tool in removing organic solid waste from environment. Further the compost produced can be used to increase fertility of soil.
CLINICAL EVALUATION OF LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY WITH REFERENCE TO CONVERSION RATE AND COMPLICATIONS- OUR EXPERIENCE IN A TERTIARY CARE CENTRE OF EASTERN INDIA
Authors: Sen Swapnil , Kumar Sandeep
Published: December 2020

Cholelithiasis is one of the most common surgical conditions requiring intervention worldwide. Since its introduction nearly four decades ago, laparoscopic cholecystectomy has become the gold standard of treatment for gallstone disease
AIM:
To critically evaluate our experience of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a tertiary care centre of eastern India.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Hospital based observational study on 180 patients subjected to elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy with features of gall stone disease and meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
RESULTS:
Our conversion rate of 10% is somewhat higher than that reported in any other series. This probably reflects that few of our surgeons are in their early learning curve. This can be reduced with the experience of the surgeons. A bile duct injury rate of 0.5% compares favourably with an incidence of 0-1% in several large series. Overall complication rate of 5.5% also compares favourably with an incidence of 1.6-8.6% in several large series.
CONCLUSION:
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy when performed in properly selected patients is very much effective in the treatment of symptomatic cholelithiasis – in terms of earlier return of bowel function, less postoperative pain, improved cosmesis, shorter length of hospital stay, earlier return of full activity and decreased overall cost. It is vital for the surgeons and patients to understand that conversion to open surgery is not failure; in fact, it implies a safe approach and a sound surgical judgment. The conversion rate is low with experienced surgeons indicating direct relationship between experience and conversion. It should be stressed that conversion if required should be done early rather than after an imminent complication.

Authors: Nnanna Patrick
Published: December 2020

This paper examined the influence of sociocultural factors such as beliefs and practices on medication use among stroke patients in rural Cross River State, Nigeria as a way understand the health-seeking behaviour of these patients in the area. The Predisposing-Enabling-Need and Witchcraft Theories of disease causation provided the framework. Data collection was through three qualitative methods. Thirty in-depth interviews were conducted with six key opinion leaders (chiefs, elders and religious leaders), six care givers, six significant others, and 12 stroke patients. Eighteen Focus Group Discussions were conducted among men, women, community leaders and community members, while two life histories were carried out on stroke patients. Results indicated that beliefs and practices were significantly associated with medication use among stroke patients. Stroke was perceived as caused by supernatural forces working through human agencies, breach of religious taboos, and violation of social norms. As a result, the majority of the respondents and participants perceived traditional medicine essentially as the most important treatment option.
CoT-AMFlow: Adaptive Modulation Network with Co-Teaching Strategy for Unsupervised Optical Flow Estimation
Authors: Wang Hengli , Fan Rui , Liu Ming
Published: December 2020

The interpretation of ego motion and scene change is a fundamental task for mobile robots. Optical flow information can be employed to estimate motion in the surroundings. Recently, unsupervised optical flow estimation has become a research hotspot. However, unsupervised approaches are often easy to be unreliable on partially occluded or texture-less regions. To deal with this problem, we propose CoT-AMFlow in this paper, an unsupervised optical flow estimation approach. In terms of the network architecture, we develop an adaptive modulation network that employs two novel module types, flow modulation modules (FMMs) and cost volume modulation modules (CMMs), to remove outliers in challenging regions. As for the training paradigm, we adopt a co-teaching strategy, where two networks simultaneously teach each other about challenging regions to further improve accuracy. Experimental results on the MPI Sintel, KITTI Flow and Middlebury Flow benchmarks demonstrate that our CoT-AMFlow outperforms all other state-of-the-art unsupervised approaches, while still running in real time.

This study aims to analyze the new normal policy implementation during Covid-19 to deliverance the economy of Indonesia. New normal is one of the options to become a milestone in Indonesia's economic revival. The government has decided to run a new normal policy to encourage economic recovery. Although, the Covid-19 pandemic has not shown any signs of ending. Previously the handling of Covid-19 in Indonesia by seeking social distancing to large-scale social restrictions. However, this policy seems to make the economy in Indonesia stuck, so the government's step is to implement new normal. The method used in this study is qualitative-descriptive, with secondary data obtained from various sources such as government websites, journals, books, and online media. As a result, this new normal policy is aimed at all business sectors. To support this policy, the government has made working guidelines in new normal situations. If economic activity returns, the most noticeable impact will be reduced unemployment and the availability of various jobs. Therefore, people's purchasing power is expected to recover as before the Covid-19 pandemic emerged. New normal activity amid the Covid-19 pandemic is like two sides of a coin. On the one hand, there is the potential to boost the economy; however, there is a risk of increasing the coronavirus's positive cases. This study found that health protocols can be easily formulated, but implementation may not be comfortable in the field. For this reason, various multidisciplinary studies need to be considered by the government in implementing the new normal policy.

Fatores culturais e ambientais associados à evolução no conhecimento de herbáceas com potencial terapêutico
Authors: Maria Falcão Fraga dos Santos Josiene , De Lima Araújo Elcida , Paulino de Albuquerque Ulysses
Published: December 2020

As herbáceas representam grande valor para as populações humanas desde a antiguidade, fornecendo diversos recursos necessários à sua subsistência, sendo o uso medicinal o que recebe maior destaque entre as categorias citadas. Apesar disso, existem poucos estudos científicos que considerem o seu potencial de uso terapêutico e fatores como a história local das populações e questões ecológicas como a variação temporal (na disponibilidade do recurso) e variação espacial (em função de níveis de antropização). Diante do baixo número de estudos etnobotânicos específicos com herbáceas, torna-se arriscado concluir, nesse momento, um padrão geral das influências que direcionam o conhecimento e uso das mesmas. Entretanto, dentro dessa perspectiva, é possível mostrar uma tendência geral sobre os principais fatores atenuantes que regem o conhecimento e uso das herbáceas e que muitas vezes estão mascarados por contextos mais amplos, como por exemplo: fatores socioeconômicos, culturais, ecológicos e biológicos. No geral, esses elementos atuam em conjunto, para determinar qual o perfil dos usuários que dependem das herbáceas como recurso terapêutico e assim, aumentando o repertório das farmacopeias conhecidas localmente.

De acordo a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) atualmente, a depressão é apontada como a quinta maior questão de saúde pública, sendo que até 2020 deverá estar em segundo lugar. Objetivo: identificar nas publicações científicas a associação entre indivíduos com depressão em idade produtiva e seus reflexos perante a qualidade de vida. Métodos: trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, a partir da busca de artigos nas bases de dados LILACS, PubMed, Medline e BVS. Para estruturar o desenvolvimento da pesquisa foram utilizados os descritores do DeCS: “depressão/depression”, “prevalência/prevalence”, “distúrbios do sono/sleep disorders”, “aspectos psicossociais/psychossocial/aspects” e “obesidade/obesity”. Como critérios de elegibilidade foram selecionadas todas as categorias de artigo original revisão de literatura, reflexão, atualização, relato de experiência e estudos relacionados a indivíduos na faixa etária de 25 a 49 anos, diagnosticados com depressão, no período de referência de 2000 a 2018. A ferramenta PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) foi utilizada como orientações na seleção de revisão integrada. Resultados: foram selecionados cinco artigos, de 86 artigos, em que as evidências disponíveis apontam a relação entre depressão, obesidade, distúrbios de sono e os aspectos psicossociais, os quais interferem diretamente na qualidade de vida dos indivíduos que passam a apresentar quadros de insatisfação com a vida, mas revela também que indivíduos que praticam atividades físicas podem conferir proteção contra o desenvolvimento da depressão independentemente da idade e região geográfica, contribuindo para uma melhor qualidade de sono e por consequência, uma rotina mais equilibrada.
Possível relação das alterações dietéticas de micronutrientes com a sintomatologia comportamental no distúrbio do espectro autista

Este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a possível relação das alterações dietéticas de micronutrientes com a sintomatologia comportamental característica do Distúrbio do Espectro Autista (DEA), verificando que complicações podem estar envolvidas e o que isso pode impactar nesse público. Foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica nas bases de dados eletrônicas “Pubmed”, “Science Direct” e “Scielo”, publicados em inglês e português no período de janeiro de 2002 a outubro de 2019. Utilizou os seguintes descritores de busca: “autistic desorder” AND “vitamins” AND “minerals” AND “gastrointestinal tract” AND “nutrition” AND “behavior” e suas combinações. Na busca, foram encontrados 2.857 artigos, dentre os quais, mediante os critérios de inclusão e de exclusão apenas 47 artigos foram selecionados, e mais 2 livros. Observou-se que esse público tem uma maior probabilidade de ter uma inadequação de micronutrientes, em que pode ser heterogêneo, variando de deficiência a toxicidade, ocasionada pela dieta restritiva e monótona, refletindo assim no seu estado nutricional. A frequência de sintomas intestinais também pode estar atrelada ao agravamento do comportamento alimentar e da sintomatologia típica do transtorno, que consequentemente reflete de forma negativa na absorção desses nutrientes, os quais desempenham papéis cruciais no neurodesenvolvimento. Concluímos que é necessário a realização de novas pesquisas nesta área para avaliar a ingestão alimentar de micronutrientes específicos, para verificar se há comprometimento da absorção desses nutrientes, seu impacto no comportamento característico e na eficácia da suplementação validada neste público. Assim, possibilitando a criação de medidas preventivas, embora as causas do DEA ainda sejam incertas, a influência dos micronutrientes não deve ser negligenciada.
