Inhaled Nanomedicines Using a Vibrating-mesh Nebuliser: Particle Size Considerations
Authors: Puig Mireia , Keegan Gemma , Munro Sandy
Published: August 2023

Vibrating-meshnebulisers have a reputation for having a gentle and successful aerosolizationprocess while preserving the integrity of biologic formulations. The maincomponent of a vibrating-mesh nebuliser is the oscillating membrane. This is formedby thousands of micron-sized pores that oscillate to generate a fine mist.These pores have the potential to be blocked depending on the formulation,especially if it is not a homogeneous solution. In this experiment, poly-lactic-co-glycolicacid nanoparticles (PLGA-NPs) of three varied sizes (100, 200 and 500 nm) werenebulised. The aim was to understand the impact of particle size andconcentration on nebulisation using the FOX® vibrating-mesh nebuliser.PLGA-NPs of 100 and 200 nm size were successfully nebulised over a wideconcentration range (from 0.1 to 10 mg/ml) in terms of percentage aerosolised andnebulisation time. Particles of larger size (500 nm) showed a long nebulisationtime which might correlate with membrane blockages. A substantial proportion ofthe nanomedicines in the market and under development have a particle sizearound 100-200 nm. The result of this study showed that the FOX®vibrating-mesh nebuliser can be a suitable platform to successfully deliver thesetypes of nanomedicines to the lungs. 
Use of a Suspoemulsion to Improve Bioavailability of a DCS Class IV Compound
Authors: Matthews Darren , Carr Charlotte , Kale Madhura , Bloomfield Dawn
Published: August 2023

Enabling formulations are used by the pharmaceutical industry to help improve bioavailability of compounds with low solubility and permeability properties.  Suspoemulsions are a combination strategy of using permeation enhancers in a lipid phase, with drug molecules incorporated as a solid nanosuspension in the aqueous phase to maximise oral exposure.  Here, a suspoemulsion is created by bead milling a classical drug suspension to reach nano size range and combining with a lipid blend of Labrasol ALF and Capmul MCM.  This formulation increased oral bioavailability from 5% to 24%.  The exact mechanism of this improvement is hypothesised but would need further work to establish.

Dramatari Gambuh adalah teater Dramatari bali yang dianggap paling tinggi mutunya dan juga merupakan dramatari klasik Bali yang paling kaya akan gerakgerak tari, sehingga dianggap sebagai sumber segala jeni tari klasik Bali. Diperkirakan Gambuh muncul sekitar abad ke-15 dengan lakon bersumber pada cerita Panji. Gambuh dipentaskan dalam upacara-upacara Dewa Yadnya seperti Piodalan. Gambuh tersebut ada kekuatan yang dapat membantu dan menyelamatkan masyarakat dari marabahaya seperti berjangkitnya wabah, terjadinya kekacauan di masyarakat dan lain sebagainya. Itulah sebabnya hampir seluruh Tari Gambuh yang ada di Bali disakralkan atau dikeramatkan oleh masyarakat pendukungnya termasuk Gambuh pedungan. Untuk membayar kaul, karena tidak sedikit masyarakat pendukungnya pada saat-saat menghadapi kesulitan/kesusahan ataupun tertimpa penyakit lalu berkaul, apabila cita-citanya tercapai dapat terlepas dari kesulitan/kesusahan, terhindar dari sakit dan lain sebagainya akan sangup “ngupah” (mementaskan) Gambuh. Maka setelah usahanya itu berhasil serta terkabulkan kemudian mereka mengadakan pementasan Gambuh yang dilengkapi dengan segala upakaranya.

Perspectives of Thai Nurses About Nurse Educators’ Competencies for Teaching Graduate Education: A Qualitative Descriptive Study
Authors: Ausanee Wanchai  , Benchamaphorn Nakamadee  , Benyapa Prompuk
Published: August 2023

Nurse educators’ competencies are essential for teaching at the graduate level. However, previous studies report educators lacking some competency aspects, such as pedagogical or research competencies. Developing nurse educators’ competencies is necessary to design and shape high-quality education for future nurses working in healthcare settings. The aim of this qualitative study was to explore Thai nurse educators’ viewpoints on improving new nurse educators’ competencies in educating graduate students. A qualitative descriptive research approach was used. Researchers interviewed 15 nurse educators in Phitsanulok, Thailand, with expertise in graduate education. Data were analyzed using content analysis. The study revealed that developing new nurse educators to educate graduate students involved changing mindsets regarding such education and continuous learning. For example, there were two themes focusing on 1) changing perspectives of nurse educators, such as teaching at the graduate education level as teaching adult learners, and the goal of teaching was enhancing students to be systematic thinkers, and 2) ongoing education for faculty, such as attending a meeting or conducting research and learning from other faculty members. Based on the study findings, educational institution administrators should identify strategies to improve the mindsets of nurse educators and enhance continuous learning through mentorship, study trips, and conducting knowledge management forums for graduate nurse educators. Nurse educators should also use these strategies to improve their com- petencies and be prompt in teaching quality graduate education

No mundo globalizado, comer insetos é uma prática cultural consolidada em várias nações. No entanto, parte significativa da população mundial, principalmente nas grandes cidades, ainda tem grande aversão aos insetos. Considerando as proposições da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Alimentação e a Agricultura (FAO), a Associação Brasileira de Criadores de Insetos (ASBRACIA) acredita que os insetos são uma solução sustentável capaz de oferecer uma fonte de proteína altamente nutritiva, com baixo impacto ambiental e menor consumo de recursos naturais. Isso resulta em sistemas de produção eficientes que aproveitam o potencial dos insetos para converter resíduos orgânicos em alimentos ricos em proteínas. A ASBRACIA tem em seu escopo o oferecimento de palestras, apresentações de trabalhos científicos, mesas-redondas, workshops e exposições de produtos e tecnologias inovadoras em eventos nacionais e internacionais. Com o objetivo de tornar o conhecimento ainda mais abrangente, foi criada a revista Insect Farming Technologies que visa ser uma fonte de publicação e pesquisa da entomofagia e suas tecnologias aplicadas.
Strategies for Effective Employment in the Context of the Risks of the Russian Labor Market: Formal and Informal Channels of Job Search
Authors: Svinukhova Yuliya Nikolaevna
Published: August 2023

The weakness of institutional employment intermediaries and significant asymmetry of information remain among the main risk factors in the labor market. In this regard, the issue of researching existing ways to minimize them does not lose its relevance. The object of the study is effective employment. The subject is attracted channels and employment strategies. The theoretical and methodological basis of the research was the foundations of the concept of social capital, the study of the functioning of social capital in the Russian labor market, the concept of the egoset and the social graph. The basis of the empirical analysis was the data of state statistics. Secondary data analysis is also used in the work. The basis of the retrospective analysis was made up of monitoring data on youth issues conducted by the Socio-Political Research Sector of the Institute of Socio-Economic Research of the UFIC RAS in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The paper presents an empirical analysis of the intensity of the use of formal and informal employment channels. The experience of existing research in the field of employment is summarized and its leading strategies in the modern Russian labor market are determined. It is proved that, functioning in the modern labor market, it is social capital that is able to fulfill the role of a buffer and continues to lead and strengthen as one of the most powerful resources for effective employment. The reasons for the low intensity of involvement of formal – institutional intermediaries in the labor market in the employment strategy are substantiated. A number of the most relevant measures to improve the activities of the state employment service are given.
Retórica e política em Rousseau
Authors: Monteagudo Ricardo
Published: August 2023

Se a história é a história das condições do poder, então a história é a história dos usos e abusos da retórica que sustenta o poder. A luta política talvez seja exclusivamente retórica e com isso a força seria apenas um complemento posterior, pois toda demonstração de força valeria apenas por seu efeito retórico de aumento, manutenção ou perda de poder”. Ao formular nesses termos o problema da ordem (e da desordem) social, Ricardo Monteagudo nos faz entender que o tema da linguagem é, de fato, um lugar privilegiado para discutirmos a simbiose entre retórica e política na obra de J.-J. Rousseau. Tendo como pano de fundo um quadro histórico da retórica, dos autores da Antiguidade até Perelman e Todorov, a tese deste livro pode ser assim enunciada: no âmbito dos escritos políticos do filósofo genebrino, em particular no Discurso sobre a origem da desigualdade e no Contrato social, as condições de possibilidade das relações civis são estabelecidas, tanto para o bem quanto para o mal, pelo uso retórico da linguagem. Longe de se limitar a uma mera exegese acadêmica de textos datados, este trabalho se apresenta a nós, leitores do século XXI, como prova cabal de que certas investigações de Rousseau acerca do discurso político permanecem atualíssimas. Monteagudo se inscreve dessa maneira numa linhagem bibliográfica que, no Brasil, remonta às análises memoráveis de Bento Prado Jr. e Luiz Roberto Salinas Fortes sobre o assunto.
Gradients of glucose metabolism regulate morphogen signalling required for specifying tonotopic organisation in the chicken cochlea
Authors: O'Sullivan James DB , Blacker Thomas S , Scott Claire , Chang Weise , Ahmed Mohi , Yianni Val , Mann Zoe F
Published: August 2023

In vertebrates with elongated auditory organs, mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) are organised such that complex sounds are broken down into their component frequencies along a proximal-to-distal long (tonotopic) axis. Acquisition of unique morphologies at the appropriate position along the chick cochlea, the basilar papilla, requires that nascent HCs determine their tonotopic positions during development. The complex signalling within the auditory organ between a developing HC and its local niche along the cochlea is poorly understood. Using a combination of live imaging and NAD(P)H fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy, we reveal that there is a gradient in the cellular balance between glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway in developing HCs along the tonotopic axis. Perturbing this balance by inhibiting different branches of cytosolic glucose catabolism disrupts developmental morphogen signalling and abolishes the normal tonotopic gradient in HC morphology. These findings highlight a causal link between graded morphogen signalling and metabolic reprogramming in specifying the tonotopic identity of developing HCs.

and new technologies, to the protection of external borders and the promotion of human rights. On the other hand, the extraordinary financial assistance provided by the EU to Member States from the NextGenerationEU should help their economies and societies to recover from the COVID-19 crisis,
and more recently from the effects of the war in Ukraine. In contrast, the threat of suspending or losing funds from the EU budget and the NextGenerationEU is aimed at urging Member States, and in particular Hungary and Poland, to respect the rule of law. In an ideal world, EU money goes to
the right recipients, meets properly identified and legitimate objectives, and is spent lawfully. In the real world, EU funds are sometimes spent incorrectly, with the result that under EU rules they must be recovered from those responsible for infringements, and in some cases sanctions must
also be imposed on them. It is only in exceptional cases that irregular expenditures of EU funds may not be recovered and sanctioned. This is the case, inter alia, when a legally defined period has elapsed since the irregular expenditure was made, ie, the irregularity is time-barred. The limitation
period for irregular payments means that the offender is exempt from the obligation to repay the EU funds irregularly spent to the EU budget and cannot be sanctioned. This article analyses EU legislation governing the statute of limitations for irregular expenditures paid from the EU budget
and NextGenerationEU. Its aim is to determine whether these provisions provided effective protection for these funds during the COVID pandemic, as well as now in the post-COVID era.
C-61/21 Ministre de la Transition Écologique: Putting the Individual-centered CJEU Case Law on Air Quality on Hold
Authors: Richelle Justine
Published: August 2023

In its judgment in C-61/21 Ministre de la Transition écologique rendered on 22 December 2022, the Grand Chamber of the CJEU decided, against the Opinion of Advocate General Kokott, that Articles 13(1) and 23(1) of Directive 2008/50/EC on air quality did not give rise to individual
rights. This decision implies that these articles cannot be invoked to request compensation for health damage suffered as a result of a breach of obligations by Member States. The CJEU came to this conclusion by arguing that the Directive only serves a general purpose of protection of human
health and the environment, which does not satisfy the conditions for State liability established in Francovich. This judgment seems to put a stop to the trend observed in earlier case law on air quality, rather focusing on individuals. This case note aims at reflecting upon this judgment
in light of previous case law, and in the context of the revision of the Directive on air quality.

Many important engineering optimization problems require a strong and simple optimization algorithm to achieve the best solutions. In 2020, Rao introduced three non-parametric algorithms, known as Rao algorithms, which have garnered significant attention from researchers worldwide due to their simplicity and effectiveness in solving optimization problems. In our simulation studies, we have developed a new version of the Rao algorithm called the Fully Informed Search Algorithm (FISA), which demonstrates acceptable performance in optimizing real-world problems while maintaining the simplicity and non-parametric nature of the original algorithms. We evaluate the effectiveness of the suggested FISA approach by applying it to optimize the shifted benchmark functions, such as those provided in CEC 2005 and CEC 2014, and by using it to design mechanical system components. We compare the results of FISA to those obtained using the original RAO method. The outcomes obtained indicate the efficacy of the proposed new algorithm, FISA, in achieving optimized solutions for the aforementioned problems. The MATLAB Codes of FISA are publicly available at https://github.com/ebrahimakbary/FISA.
Bilateral Aspiration of Pleural Fluid in a Case of Contarini Syndrome
Authors: Balaji K , Vignesh K , Chandrasekar S
Published: August 2023

Contarini syndrome refers to the presence of bilateral pleural effusions with different characteristics resulting from distinct aetiologies on each side. The syndrome was named after Francesco Contarini, the 95th Doge of Venice, who had right-sided transudative effusion possibly due to heart failure, and left-sided exudative effusion due to parapneumonic effusion. While bilateral pleural effusions typically exhibit similar characteristics and are secondary to the same underlying cause, such as heart failure or malignancy, there have been rare reports of bilateral effusions with different characteristics. In this case report, we present the case of a 53-year-old female with known breast carcinoma who presented with right-sided exudative pleural effusion and left-sided transudative pleural effusion, each with distinct aetiologies, thus establishing Contarini syndrome. This report highlights the importance of considering the possibility of two separate aetiologies for bilateral pleural effusions, which should not be overlooked in clinical practice
Low-grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm: A Series of Four Cases

Published: August 2023

Low-grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm (LAMN) is a rare malignant neoplasm seen in less than 0.3% of appendectomy specimens. Patients with LAMN can present with abdominal pain, mimicking appendicitis clinically. In later stages, it can rupture, leading to Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). Therefore, a high clinical suspicion is needed for correct diagnosis and management. The prognosis of LAMN depends on the presence or absence of mucin/neoplastic epithelium outside the appendix. For LAMN confined to the appendix, appendectomy alone is sufficient for management, with conservative follow-up. For LAMN with extruded acellular mucin localised to the appendiceal serosa, management involves appendectomy and PMP surveillance. For all mucinous lesions of the appendix, it is essential to submit the entire appendix for histopathologic examination, thoroughly evaluating the presence of mucin/neoplastic epithelium involving the serosa/extra appendiceal tissue for accurate staging and to predict the risk of recurrence and determine further management. Here four cases of LAMN due to their rarity and clinical importance is presented. This study of four cases emphasises that the clinical diagnosis of this rare malignancy is difficult, and radiological investigations were not available as these patients presented with clinical features mimicking appendicitis. Emergency appendectomy was performed in all cases. LAMN should be considered as a differential diagnosis because if not diagnosed and treated in the early stages, it can lead to dreaded complications like PMP. The histopathological examination of all four cases of LAMN showed dissecting acellular mucin in various stages of progression in the appendicular wall, but none involving the serosa. This highlights the importance of timely surgical intervention and histopathological examination for an exact diagnosis and staging of LAMN for further follow-up or treatment.
Comparison of Student Performance in Online versus Offline Teaching: A Case-Control Study in Obstetrics and Gynaecology Lectures in the Qassim Region, Saudi Arabia
Authors: Saadia Zaheera , Hamid Hossam Omar
Published: August 2023

Introduction: During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19) pandemic, there was a global need for online learning. Numerous publications were observed both in favour of and against online platforms, but most of them were qualitative. Now that the pandemic is over, we aimed to explore the effectiveness of online teaching compared to offline teaching. Aim: This study aimed to descriptively compare the performance of medical students in online versus offline class teaching of the Obstetrics and Gynaecology course. Materials and Methods: This quantitative retrospective casecontrol study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at College of Medicine, Qassim University, from July 2022 to January 2023. The academic year 2018/2019 was considered the control group (August 2018 to June 2019, offline teaching), and the year 2020/2021 was considered the case group (online teaching, August 2020 to June 2021). A total of 123 students had the Obstetrics and Gynaecology course delivered online, compared to a control group of 115 students who had the same course offline. Chi-square test was applied to analyse categorical variables, considering a p-value <0.05 as significant. Results: The measured outcomes included overall students’ performance in terms of marks and grades, as well as performance in relation to gender and attendance rates. Overall, students’ grades and attendance were higher in the online group (p=0.004 and p=0.03, respectively), which was more evident among male students (p=0.009). Conclusion: The findings suggest that medical students’ performance in online learning is comparable to or better than face-to-face teaching. Further research is needed to explore the performance of male students compared to female students.

The investigation was undertaken to study the assess pre and post training assessment of mango growers regarding mango production in Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra. The training were organized in three tahsils during the December, 2019 on different management aspects in mango production. The overall average of knowledge level indicated that 49.44 per cent growers had medium knowledge and 32.22 per cent mango growers had high knowledge level. However, low knowledge level was seen in 18.33 per cent growers. Among different phases and management practices, 67.78 per cent growers were well acquainted with harvesting technique. Before training, the lowest score (25.56) was in knowledge about induction of flowering as the flowering in mango is complex phenomena and associated with several factors which may need to explain deeply. The maximum score (82.22) was recorded in harvesting technique. The mean knowledge score on Pest and diseases in mango blossom phase and their management after imparting training was maximum (95.56) compared to the mean knowledge score 48.89 before training. The highest per cent change in knowledge (112.12 per cent) was observed in the causes of fruit drop and remedy for control.
