Peatland hydrology in boreal Sweden: Modelling, long-term data analysis, and experimental rewetting
Authors: Karimi Shirin
Published: April 2024

Peatlands are the dominant type of wetland in boreal ecosystems and they are thought to play a major role in moderating hydrological extremes such as floods and droughts. Despite the valuable ecosystem services that they provide, a large proportion of peatlands around the globe has been degraded by human activity. Notably, in Sweden, peatlands have been subjected to drainage for the purposes of forestry. As awareness of the detrimental effects of climate change on boreal ecosystems has grown, the rewetting of drained peatlands has emerged as a naturebased solution for mitigating floods and droughts. However, the science behind this strategy is scant and the question of whether its potential benefits, in terms of alleviating extreme weather impacts, outweigh the costs of rewetting remains unanswered. Using a unique collection of hydrological field observations and modelling, this thesis provides a comprehensive analysis of the hydrological functioning of peatlands, at both local and stream network scale, within a heterogeneous boreal landscape (Paper I and Paper II) and addresses the question of whether peatland rewetting is more effective at mitigating both flooding events and low flow conditions than leaving historically drained peatlands as they are (Paper III and Paper IV). Our findings indicate that the moderating effect of peatlands on flow responses can primarily be found at the local scale. We also demonstrated that peatland rewetting successfully raised the groundwater table level, increased baseflow, and enhanced the overall storage capacity within the study site. During storm events, peatland rewetting effectively attenuated peak flow, reduced the runoff coefficient, and mitigated hydrograph flashiness. In conclusion, peatland rewetting is shown to be an effective tool for moderating hydrological extremes. However, given the dynamic nature of hydrological systems, continuous long-term monitoring of peatland processes following rewetting is required.
What a Stress! How Plant Photosynthesis Deals with High Light and Drought
Authors:   , Hu Chen
Published: April 2024

Abiotic stresses include drought, floods, salinity, extreme temperature, light stress, heavy metals, etc. Abiotic stresses adversely affect plant growth and development, largely limiting crop production and sustainability worldwide. Plants exhibit a variety of physiological, metabolic, and biochemical responses to stresses from the anatomical level to the molecular level. Photosynthetic apparatuses in the chloroplast are highly sensitive; their dynamic acclimation plays an essential role in increasing the fitness of plants under stress conditions. This thesis primarily investigates how the photosynthetic apparatus adapts to two critical types of abiotic stresses: water stress and light stress. The thesis provides insights into how plants adapt to water and light stresses and how their photosynthetic apparatus changes in response to different conditions. The findings may have implications for developing strategies for mitigating the effects of abiotic stresses on plants.

DATA FINDING, SHARING AND DUPLICATION REMOVAL IN THE CLOUD
Authors:   Student of Poly. Dept. of Computer Technology K.K.Wagh , Nashik, India, Patil Janhavi Rahul
Published: April 2024

Deduplication involves eliminating duplicate or redundant data to reduce stored data volume, commonly used in data backup, network optimization, and storage management. However, traditional deduplication methods have limitations with encrypted data and security. The primary objective of this project is to develop new distributed deduplication systems that offer increased reliability. In these systems, data chunks are distributed across the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), and a robust key management system is utilized to ensure secure deduplication with slave nodes. Instead of having multiple copies of the same content, deduplication removes redundant data by retaining only one physical copy and referring other instances to that copy. The granularity of deduplication can vary, ranging from an entire file to a data block. The MD5 and 3DES algorithms are used to enhance the deduplication process. The proposed approach in this project is the Proof of Ownership (POF) of the file. With this method, deduplication can effectively address the issues of reliability and label consistency in HDFS storage systems. The proposed system has successfully reduced the cost and time associated with uploading and downloading data, while also optimizing storage space. Key Words: Cloud computing, data storage, file checksum algorithms, computational infrastructure, duplication.

Authors:   School of Architecture, IPS Academy, Indore, M.P., India, SONI AR. SHAILJA
Published: April 2024

High noise levels in hospitals pose risks to both patients and staff, inducing stress, discomfort, and restlessness. This study presents results from a noise survey conducted in a Dhaka teaching hospital, revealing daytime levels ranging from 48 to 63 dB LAeq, exceeding Bangladesh standards. Noise levels correlated with ward layout and sources, not patient demographics. Strategies such as noise reduction, acoustic materials, and staff/patient programs can improve hospital acoustics effectively. This study reviews research from multiple disciplines including medicine, psychology, architecture, and acoustics, focusing on topics such as hospital noise, sleep quality, patient privacy, and music therapy. Findings indicate hospitals often exceed recommended noise levels, negatively impacting patients and staff with sleep problems, higher blood pressure, and burnout. Poorly designed sound environments compromise patient privacy and communication. Strategies like private rooms, sound-absorbing materials, and music therapy are recommended to reduce noise levels and improve communication. To enhance patient confidentiality, private rooms with sound-blocking features are suggested. Overall, the study underscores the importance of sound management in healthcare and advocates for design strategies to mitigate noise-related issues while ensuring effective communication. KEY WORDS: Noise, patient, acoustic, healthcare, hospital.

Published: April 2024

In modern conditions of uncertainty, manufacturers face many problems and risks that are sometimes impossible to predict. In these conditions, effective enterprise management requires a reorientation from standard tools and methods used in accounting or management accounting to modern monitoring methods. Such methods are based on the concept of controlling, which is extremely in demand today in foreign business management practice, since it is an information and analytical tool for making and implementing management decisions synchronized with accounting, analysis, and planning systems. Controlling is not an innovation for Russian commodity producers, but it is still greatly underestimated as a tool for effective business process management. To build a business process control system, enterprises need a systematic study of its essence, tasks, basic concepts and regulatory regulation in order to ensure economic security. The article examines the genesis of the development of the controlling system, as well as the use of available resources and the identification of potential opportunities formed through modern controlling tools and methods in management accounting.

A Review of Emerging Revenue Models for Low-carbon Hydrogen Technologies
Authors: Acharya Abhijeet
Published: April 2024

Adoption of Low-Carbon Hydrogen (LCH) technologies is considered promising to curtail carbon emissions in the industrial sectors and substitute high carbon-intensive fuels. However, LCH technologies are still evolving and face several technical & commercial barriers. On the commercial side, they face economic viability and financial risks and, therefore, fail to attract investments. Recently, some countries have developed policy support to incentivize LCH technologies, but their reward mechanisms and design vary widely and lack a standardized approach. The paper aims to contribute to the current knowledge by discussing the theoretical underpinning of LCH revenue models. It reviews emerging revenue models for LCH technologies in Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK. The review covers CCfD (Carbon Contract for Difference) in Germany, SDE++ (Stimulation of Sustainable Energy Production and Climate Transition) in the Netherlands, and HPBM (Hydrogen production Business Model) in the United Kingdom (UK). The review highlighted CCfD acts as simple hedging instrument against CO2 market price fluctuations without any visibility on hydrogen prices in the market. In contrast, SDE++ and HPBM are found to more comprehensive incentive schemes for LCH development.

Authors: Gupta Nakul , Rawal M P , Amandeep
Published: April 2024

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) prevalence rise worldwide, and it also increases the healthcare challenges. Diabetic kidney disease(DKD) is a major long-term complication of type 2 diabetes(T2DM) and the most common cause of chronic kidney disease(CKD) and end-stage kidney disease(ESKD) worldwide. The study aims to assess the prevalence of kidney involvement among T2DM patients, classify them according to glomerular filtration rate(GFR), and determine the predictive value of HbA1C and albumin-creatinine ratio(ACR) for declining GFR.

Methodology: The study is a cross-sectional analysis of patients diagnosed with T2DM. The sample size 106 was determined based on the prevalence of DKD among T2DM. Data collection included medical record review, face-to-face interviews, blood and urine sample analysis, and calculation of eGFR. Patients were classified based on GFR and urinary ACR, and those with kidney involvement were identified. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS, and significance was set at p ≤ 0.05.

Result: The study included 106 T2DM patients, of which 46.2% had kidney involvement based on elevated ACR. Among these patients, 28.6% had a GFR <15 ml/min/1.73m² and were on hemodialysis. Significant differences were observed between the patients with kidney involvement and the patients without kidney involvement in terms of age, HbA1C levels, ACR, GFR, duration of diabetes, and tobacco use history. ROC curve analysis showed that HbA1C and ACR were reliable markers for predicting kidney involvement, with specific cutoff values identified.

Conclusion: The study demonstrates that individuals with T2DM and kidney involvement have higher HbA1C levels, greater albuminuria (ACR), reduced GFR, and longer duration of diabetes compared to those without kidney involvement. Monitoring HbA1C and ACR levels is crucial in identifying individuals at risk of kidney involvement. The study concludes that HbA1C and ACR can serve as useful markers for predicting kidney involvement in T2DM patients.

Published: April 2024

Introduction: Wide use of medical management of preterm labour has been obstructed due to low success rate of arrest of labour. This is aggravated by higher incidence of serious side effect of the available tocolytic agents, especially beta-mimetic tocolytics. With this background, the present study was carried out to compare the efficacy and maternal side effect of magnesium sulphate and Isoxsuprine in the arrest of preterm labour

Methodology: This was a comparative prospective interventional study conducted among pregnant women coming to department of obstetrics and gynaecology with 28 to 37 weeks of gestation. Patients were divided in to two groups - Group 1 receiving Isoxsuprine and Group 2 receiving Magnesium Sulphate. Base line profile and outcome were compared between the two study groups.

Results: Magnesium sulphate was more effective in arresting labour compared to Isoxsuprine (p<0.05). Tachycardia and hypotension were observed more frequently in group1 (Isoxsuprine) compared to group 2 (MgSO4). In cases having <1 cm dilatation and or less than 25% effacement MgSO4 was significantly more effective that Isoxsuprine for tocolysis.

Conclusion: Magnesium sulphate is a more effective tocolytic agent than Isoxsuprine. Magnesium sulphate produce lesser maternal and foetal side effects like hypotension, palpitation, tachycardia as compared to Isoxsuprine.

Published: April 2024

Introduction: Epidural anesthesia along with an experienced anaesthetist, a dedicated obstetrician and a trained midwife has ability to convert the painful and extensively stressful labour labour event into a less stressful event. The purpose of this study was to compare feto-maternal outcome of labour with epidural analgesia to those without epidural analgesia.

Methodology: The prospective, comparative and interventional study was conducted among primigravida with full term pregnancy admitted to maternity ward. Study group were given epidural analgesia which was compared with control group who did not give any labour analgesia. Maternal and foetal outcome were assessed.

Results: Difference in mean duration of first stage and second stage of labour was statistically non-significant between two groups (p>0.05). Before the analgesia (basal) mean VAS was 8.45 and 8.32 in women who received epidural anesthesia and cases who didn’t receive epidural anesthesia respectively. The mean VAS was significantly less in women who received epidural anesthesia (p<0.001).

Conclusion: Use of epidural analgesia during the later stage of labour, when cervical dilatation was more than 4 cm, provides better analgesic effect with minimal side effect and almost equivalent duration of labour. Epidural analgesia doesn’t unnecessarily increase operative delivery rate and had no adverse effect on APGAR score of newborns.
