Background: The relationship between serum uric acid
and chronic stable angina remains contentious. While its
association with cardiovascular risk is debated, this study
aimed to investigate the correlation between serum uric acid
levels and the angiographic severity of coronary artery disease
in patients with chronic stable angina.
Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted on
158 patients presenting with chronic stable angina at Dhaka
Medical College Hospital from January to December 2022.
Hyperuricemia was defined as serum uric acid levels 6.5 mg
dl. The severity of coronary artery disease was assessed using
the Gensini score and the vessel score on coronary angiogram.
Results: Hyperuricemic patients (n 72) had significantly
higher conventional risk factors (hypertension, diabetes,
dyslipidemia) and lipid profile abnormalities compared to
the normouricemic group (n=86). Notably, hyperuricemic
patients were more likely to have a vessel score of 3 (severe
coronary artery disease) and had significantly higher Gensini
scores, indicating greater disease severity. A strong positive
correlation was observed between serum uric acid levels and
both Gensini score and vessel score.
Conclusions: This study demonstrates a significant positive
association between serum uric acid levels and the severity of
coronary artery disease in patients with chronic stable angina.
Early diagnosis and management of hyperuricemia may be
crucial in reducing adverse clinical outcomes and improving
the quality of life for these patients.

Linear Algebra & Matrix in Mathematics: Understanding Importance
Authors: Reddy M. Krishna
Published: November 2024

In linear algebra, we learn the basics of linear systems by studying matrices and vectors. A branch of mathematics known as linear algebra primarily studies vectors, vector spaces (sometimes called linear spaces), linear mappings (often called transformations), and systems of linear equations.
Since vector spaces are fundamental to contemporary mathematics, abstract algebra and functional analysis both make extensive use of linear algebra. Analytic geometry provides a tangible example of linear algebra, while operator theory provides a generalization of the theory. It finds widespread use in the social and natural sciences due to the fact that linear models may often be used to approximate nonlinear ones

Barriers to Health and Rehabilitation: Juvenile Detention Homes in Rajasthan
Authors: Ishan Atrey, Balwinder Singh
Published: November 2024

The juvenile justice system in Rajasthan faces significant barriers that hinder the health and rehabilitation of detained youth. This research paper examines these challenges, which include resource deficiencies, inadequate medical services, poor living conditions, and systemic biases. Detained juveniles often lack access to comprehensive education and vocational training, further complicating their rehabilitation and reintegration into society. Moreover, discrimination based on socioeconomic status, caste, and gender exacerbates the inequalities experienced by marginalised youth, limiting their access to necessary support. Mental health issues are prevalent among juvenile offenders, with high rates of internalising and externalising disorders such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. The 2015 Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act emphasises children's rehabilitation, psychological care, and social reintegration in the justice system, aligning with child-centric national and international mandates. However, policy gaps and ineffective implementation remain significant hurdles. The research highlights the interconnected nature of mental health and delinquency, noting the vital role of mental health professionals in addressing these concerns. To improve outcomes, recommendations include enhanced policy measures for equitable treatment, increased investment in healthcare and educational resources, and community and family-based rehabilitation strategies. These measures aim to break cycles of recidivism, ensuring juveniles transition into society as productive members while upholding their rights and dignity.

Foams are widely utilized across various industries due to their unique structural properties, particularly their ability to absorb energy effectively. The behavior of these cellular solids, which can have either open or closed cell structures, plays a crucial role in applications like cushioning, padding, and protective packaging. Modeling foam behavior is essential for optimizing its application, requiring an in-depth understanding of foam flow characteristics and rheological properties. This study focuses on the compressive stressstrain behavior of polyurethane soft foam, emphasizing the typical stages of deformation— linear elasticity, plateau, and densification. Calibration data from Rogers Corporation was employed to analyze foam performance using five hyperelastic material models: Hyperfoam, Arruda-Boyce, Neo-Hookean, Ogden, and Polynomial models. Each model's accuracy was evaluated based on its ability to replicate experimental stress- strain behavior. Among these, the Arruda-Boyce model demonstrated the highest fidelity with an error of 8.6%, making it the most suitable for predicting foam behavior in finite element simulations. This work provides essential insights into material modeling for foam applications, aiding in the selection of appropriate models for diverse industrial uses.

The higher the VAT rate is set, the more difficult it is to get the desired income because these UMKM still use the actual selling price without adding the price before VAT, when the price after VAT is recorded, it is difficult for the buyers to know the exact price amount and most of the buyers do not pay the VAT charged and this will affect the UMKM income because the income which should be a profit but becomes a loss because it has to cover the VAT rate charged to the buyer will be deposited with the government. This study aims to test whether the application of VAT affects UMKM's income. Based on the results of hypothesis testing, it is known that the sig value is 0.004 <0.05 and the t-table is 1.701, so 3.127> 1.701, which means that the application of VAT affects the income level of a UMKM. The results showed that the application of 11% VAT affects the income level of an MSME, which means that the higher the VAT rate, the more it will affect the income of an MSME

Transformable furnishing
Authors: Forino Imma
Published: November 2024

Among the many problems highlighted by the recent Covid-19 pandemic is the inadequacy of many homes to accommodate people during a health emergency. During the various lockdowns, flats that needed to be bigger, more distributed or more modern did not help to organise one's time or daily activities (studying, working, exercising, or simply secluding oneself) in the best possible way. Redesigning the existing seems a possible solution, not by demolishing obsolete dwellings, but by adapting them through ‘light systems,’ i.e. through furnishings: an ‘ex-post’ intervention that can redevelop spaces by leveraging the concepts of transformability and flexibility. Lessons can be learned in this respect, from the history of modern housing to contemporary experience. The article broadly traces this history (with a look at the culture of Italian living) so that from past experience, we can learn solutions for living in the future.

Published: November 2024

Background: Given the high incidence of chronic illnesses and polypharmacy in the aged population, medication adherence is a crucial factor in determining health outcomes. Increased morbidity, readmissions to hospitals, and medical expenses are all consequences of non-adherence. This problem is made worse by elements including physical restrictions, cognitive deterioration, complicated drug schedules, and socioeconomic obstacles. It has been suggested that multidisciplinary approaches incorporating pharmacy and nursing personnel are helpful ways to deal with these issues. Aim: this research is to assess, using a multidisciplinary approach, the contribution of nursing and pharmacy experts to enhancing medication adherence in senior citizens, emphasizing important tactics, treatments, and their effects on health outcomes. Methods: To enhance medication adherence, a systematic evaluation of the literature was done, with an emphasis on interventions involving pharmacy and nursing staff. Databases including Google Scholar, CINAHL, and PubMed were used to find studies. Cohort studies, systematic reviews, and randomized controlled trials were all included in the analysis. Adherence rates, patient health outcomes, and implementation feasibility were used to evaluate the efficacy of the interventions. Results: Nursing and pharmacy experts working together greatly improves adherence, according to the findings.

Background: The necessity to address comorbidities and chronic illnesses has led to a prevalent practice in geriatric care known as polypharmacy, or the concurrent use of numerous drugs. But there are serious ethical issues with polypharmacy, such as the possibility of adverse drug events (ADEs), diminished patient autonomy, and unequal resource distribution. The aging population and growing demands on healthcare systems make managing these problems even more difficult. In order to provide patient-centered, safe, and fair treatment, ethical polypharmacy management necessitates a multidisciplinary strategy that makes use of the knowledge of pharmacy and nursing specialists. Aim: this paper is to examine the moral implications of managing polypharmacy in geriatric care, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary approaches that tackle issues like resource allocation, patient safety, and informed consent. It emphasizes how pharmacy and nursing practitioners can maximize polypharmacy procedures while upholding moral standards. Methods: A thorough analysis of interdisciplinary literature was carried out, encompassing case studies, ethical frameworks, and clinical guidelines. With special emphasis to their ethical implications, the investigation concentrated on finding collaborative behaviors and successful treatments in polypharmacy management.

Published: November 2024

Background: The science of tracking and averting adverse drug reactions (ADRs), or pharmacovigilance, is essential to maintaining patient safety. Because they work closely with patients, nurses are frequently the first to notice adverse drug reactions (ADRs), and pharmacists offer their knowledge of drug interactions, dosage, and medication safety. Improving pharmacovigilance procedures requires these two professions to work together effectively. However, optimal results are hampered by obstacles like inadequate training, underreporting of ADRs, and disjointed communication systems. Aim: this study is to investigate how interdisciplinary nursing and pharmacy collaboration might improve patient outcomes, strengthen safety protocols in clinical settings, and strengthen pharmacovigilance practices. Methods: A combination of qualitative interviews with medical professionals, a systematic assessment of peer-reviewed literature, and an examination of case studies demonstrating effective nurse-pharmacist partnerships were used in this study. To find opportunities, problems, and gaps in the current pharmacovigilance practices, data were compiled. Results: ADR reporting rates, medication mistakes, and patient safety outcomes were all considerably increased by interdisciplinary collaboration between nurses and pharmacists. Real-time data sharing and medication monitoring were made easier by technological tools including electronic health records (EHRs) and decision-support systems.

Background: Chronic diseases, particularly non-communicable diseases (NCDs), are leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally. Effective management of these conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), requires a multidisciplinary approach, including the integration of clinical pharmacists into patient care teams. Methods: This review analyzed literature from seven databases, including MEDLINE and EMBASE, focusing on pharmacist interventions in the management of chronic diseases, specifically type 2 diabetes and asthma, to assess their applicability to IBD. Studies published between 2014 and 2023 were included to evaluate the impact of pharmacist-led initiatives on clinical outcomes. Results: The findings reveal that pharmacist interventions significantly improve patient outcomes in chronic disease management through medication management, patient education, and regular monitoring. While type 2 diabetes and asthma management strategies have been well-documented, there is a notable gap in research regarding pharmacist involvement in IBD care. Proposed interventions for IBD include medication adherence support, risk assessment, and preventive health services, which have demonstrated effectiveness in other chronic conditions. Conclusion: The integration of clinical pharmacists into the management of inflammatory bowel disease presents a valuable opportunity to enhance patient care.
