Aim: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of preincisional (preemptive) Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block on perioperative opioid consumption, hemodynamic parameters and postoperative rescue anal¬gesic consumption in patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair.

Methods: 60 adult patients were included in this prospective randomized controlled study. The patients were divided into two groups: those who received conventional systemic analgesia (Group C) and those who received US-guided TAP block (Group TAP). By ultrasonography, normal saline (1 mL) was injected between the internal oblique and transverse abdominal muscles, and after separation was observed, 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine was administered. Postoperatively, 1mg/kg Tramadol HCl was given to all patients as a rescue analgesic. Perioperative hemodynamic data, perioperative total amount of remifentanil consumption amount, postoperative Visual Ana¬logue Scale (VAS) scores, starting time and number of rescue analgesics were recorded.

Results: There was no difference in demographic data. Intraoperative remifentanil dose, VAS values at all times, need for rescue analgesics and the number of applications were significantly lower in Group TAP than in Group C (p=0.012, p
Refugeehood in Crisis and the Quest for a Decolonial Turn in Africa
Authors: Pinduka Norman
Published: September 2023

Current trends in refugee protection within the African continent expose the deep-seated manifestations of coloniality. The 20th-century Eurocentric approaches to the management of people of concern continue to guide refugee protection in Africa. The approaches that are arguably a triumph of ‘European Universalism’ or Eurocentrism in refugee protection, both in theory and praxis, continue to be questioned because of their unmistakable results – the formation of hierarchies between Africans based on nationality and territoriality. This has led to the categorisation of African people and power conflicts, clashes, and intense contests for co-existence. Such a status quo has been normalised to be natural, occasioning deplorable refugee situations in the continent. Against such a background, this article aims to augment and complement the broad swathe of literature in the quest for African Renaissance movements using a Decolonial approach to refugee protection. It departs from untangling the lived experiences of the forcibly displaced, particularly refugees and asylum seekers, to critique the Western-influenced system of refugeehood in Africa. The research argues that the modern approaches to refugeehood rooted in Eurocentrism have eliminated ways of acceptance and co-existence amongst Africans, disregarding some of the traditional ways of incorporation, inclusion and integration. Instead, the refugee regime has been ordering, othering and hierarchizing the forcibly displaced, making them typical subjects of coloniality. It suggests decolonising the asylum system, considering an African-driven refugee regime and the involvement of local communities in the management of migration.

Основная заболеваемость и смертность в мире обусловлена ростом патологии сердечно – сосудистой системы, в структуре которых преобладает ишемическая болезнь сердца, зачастую осложняющаяся развитием инфаркта миокарда. В основе развития данной патологии лежит атеросклеротическое поражение, факторами риска которого являются эндотелиальная дисфункция, окислительный стресс. Материалы и методы: в исследовании приняло участие 93 пациента с диагнозом острый инфаркт миокарда, верифицированной стандартизированными валидизированными критериями, и 30 соматически здоровых лиц. Всем обследованным определяли уровень окисленных модифицированных белков, активность супероксиддисмутазы. Статистическая обработка результатов исследования проводилась с помощью пакетов программ SPSS Statistics 20. Результаты: в исследовании показаны особенности уровней маркеров окислительного стресса. Выявлены достоверные различия по показателям окислительной модификации белков, супероксиддисмутазы. Кроме того, установлены взаимосвязи между инфарктом миокарда, наличием атеросклеротического поражения и изучаемыми биомаркерами. Таким образом, коррекция факторов риска развития сердечно-сосудистых событий остается на субоптимальном уровне, и значительная часть пациентов не привержена к их коррекции. В связи с этим остается актуальным поиск новых маркеров остаточного риска, способных сократить количество осложненных форм основного заболевания

The main morbidity and mortality in the world is due to the growth of the pathology of the cardiovascular system, in the structure of which coronary heart disease predominates, often complicated by the development of myocardial infarction. The development of this pathology is based on atherosclerotic lesions, the risk factors of which are endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress. Materials and Methods: The study involved 93 patients diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction, verified by standardized validated criteria, and 30 somatically healthy individuals. All examined were determined the level of oxidized modified proteins, the activity of superoxide dismutase. Statistical processing of the results of the study was carried out using the SPSS Statistics 20 software packages. Results: the study shows the features of the levels of oxidative stress markers. Revealed significant differences in terms of oxidative modification of proteins, superoxide dismutase. In addition, relationships have been established between myocardial infarction, the presence of atherosclerotic lesions and the studied biomarkers. Thus, the correction of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular events remains at a suboptimal level, and a significant proportion of patients are not committed to their correction. In this regard, the search for new markers of residual risk that can reduce the number of complicated forms of the underlying disease remains relevant

В связи с невозможностью изучения реакции нейронов центральной нервной системы человека на малые дозы ионизирующего излучения, проведено экспериментальное и математическое моделирование пострадиационных церебральных эффектов на белых лабораторных крысах. Экспериментальное исследование, выполненное с использованием традиционных патогистологических и статистических методик, не выявило среди множества воздействующих факторов приоритетный в реакции нейронов на малые дозы ионизирующего излучения. Реакция нервных клеток зависела не только от γ-облучения, но и от сроков наблюдения после начала эксперимента, а также от совместного их воздействия. Математическое моделирование показало, что малые дозы ионизирующего излучения, вызывали отклик у нервных клеток головного мозга. Большинство изменений нейронов в последующем репарировалось, но часть повреждений сохранялась и, накапливаясь, приводила к экстремумам в отдельных доза-временных интервалах. Флюктуации состояния нейронов, хотя и имели стохастический характер, свидетельствовали о нарушении постоянства их структурно-функциональной организации и сбое функционирования, которые могут служить морфологической основой для формирования пограничных психоневрологических нарушений

Due to the impossibility of studying the reaction of neurons of the human nervous system to low doses of an ionizing pulse, experimental and mathematical modeling of post-radiation cerebral effects was carried out on white laboratory rats. An experimental study conducted using side pathohistological and statistical methods was not identified among the identification of influencing factors that are priority in the reaction of neurons to small cases of ionizing research. The reaction of nerve cells depends not only on γ-irradiation, but also on the period of observation after the start of the experiment, as well as on the reverse effect. Mathematical modeling showed that small doses of ionizing radiation caused a response in the nerve cells of the brain. Most of the changes in neurons were subsequently repaired, but some of the damage persisted and, accumulating, led to extremes in certain dose-time intervals. Fluctuations in the state of neurons, although they were of a stochastic nature, indicated a violation of the constancy of their structural and functional organization and a malfunction, which can serve as a morphological basis for the formation of borderline neuropsychiatric disorders

Energy budgeting is important for determining the sustainability and vulnerability of a crop production system. In the present study, an assessment of the energy requirements for cashew cultivation under three different planting densities was carried out during 2015-20. The study revealed that the total input energy consumption for cashew cultivation ranged from 75292.68 to 120903.58 MJ/ha. The energy productivity from 0.04 to 0.13 kg/MJ and energy use efficiency varied from 8.46 to 24.61% under three planting densities. The highest energy was consumed in terms of chemical fertilizers for all the planting densities followed by fuel (diesel), machinery, farmyard manure (FYM), pesticides, petrol and human energy. The analysis revealed the need to implement improved management practices to enhance the energy efficiency by reducing the energy consumption in inputs, by optimizing energy consumption and/or improving the crop yield by optimizing the cultivation methods and switching from non-renewable sources to renewable sources of energy. Among the three different planting densities, 2.5x2.5 m spacing consumed the highest energy followed by 5x5 m and 7.5x7.5m spacing. However, the planting density of 2.5x2.5 m spacing was more energy efficient over the years due to more yields per unit area.

Published: September 2023

A field experiment was conducted during the Kharif season of2020 with four main plot treatments consisting of irrigation levels (No post sowing irrigation, one irrigation at the flower initiation stage, one irrigation at the pod filling stage and two irrigations each at flower initiation and pod filling stage) and five subplot treatments as genotypes viz., MH 1142, MH 1468, MH 1703, MH 1762 and MH 1871 following split plot design by replicating thrice. Irrigating green gram, irrespective of the growth stage, increased the seed yield significantly. Two irrigations each at the flower initiation and podding stage bring about greater seed economic yield of green gram than 1 irrigation either at each stage. Among single irrigations, flower initiation stage provided significantly superior (8.6 %) seed yield compared to the pod filling stage. During the flower initiation stage, no rain and irrigation at this stage led to more development of crop plants, as is evident from a higher number of branches per plant and, ultimately, a higher number of pods. Two irrigations, i.e., each at flower initiation and podding phase, lead to considerably greater seed output than single irrigation at either growth stage, which may be attributed to the sufficient supply of water, which indirectly provided a smooth supply of nutrients to crop plants. The increase was 18.4 and 28.6 per cent over-irrigation at flowering and podding stage, respectively. Seed yield varied among green gram genotypes, which might be because of variations in the genetic potential of the genotypes. Genotype MH 1871 produced significantly higher seed yield among different genotypes. The cumulative effect of yield traits viz. pods per plant, branches per plant, seed index and seeds per pod attributed to the higher seed yield in MH 1871. This genotype was more efficient in utilizing radiations, as evident from the higher chlorophyll content recorded in this genotype. Genotype MH 1142 was the lowest yielder and MH 1762 although produced. To obtain a higher yield of green gram, genotype MH 1871 be taken with two irrigations each at flower initiation and pod filling stage.

Published: September 2023

Presence of plastics in the surroundings is ubiquitous, as generation of plastics is booming globally and it gets accumulated in oceans leading to deleterious impacts on marine life, public health and the surrounding environment. Owing to its non-degradable nature, plastic particles remain in surroundings for extended periods which automatically facilitate its out spreading. Therefore, there is a need to shift to bio-based plastics, as bio-based green economy hinges on sustainable employment of bioresources for generating a broad spectrum of products, biofuels, chemicals and bioplastics. Typically bioplastics are synthesized from bio-based resources considered to contribute more to sustainable production of plastic as a part of the circular economy. Bioplastics are luring attention and growing as counterfeit material for petroleum-derived plastics owing to their biodegradability. Recently an engrossed interest has been burgeoning in producing drop-in polymers and new-fangled bioplastics by utilizing lignocellulosic feedstock. This paper reviews the enormous potential of lignocellulosic feedstock as a significant inedible substrate for bioplastic synthesis. Polyhydroxyalkanoates, polyurethanes, polylactic acid and starch-bioplastic are prevailing bio-based plastic comparably derived from lignocellulosic biomass. In forthcoming years bioplastic derived years’ bioplastic derived from lignocellulose will loom as valuable material in numerous fields for an extensive range of cutting-edge applications.

Published: September 2023

Hemp is dual purpose crop, where fibers and seeds have found its place in textile and food industry due to its strong fiber and nutrition content in seed. The cultivation of hemp is a new venture in India where farmers get dual income by both fibers and seeds hence, optimizing spacing and nutrient management to harness maximum yield of fiber and seed can double the income of farmers. The present investigation on economics of hemp cultivation revealed that the, maximum gross returns (Rs. 5,74,000/ ha) were obtained from plants grown at 10 cm × 5 cm spacing and supplied with 125 per cent RDF plus PGPR consortia but highest B:C ratio of 4.68 was observed in plants grown at spacing of 20 cm × 10 cm and nourished with 100 per cent of RDF plus PGPR consortia for fiber purposes. Upon considering seed economics maximum gross returns (Rs. 12,58,200/ ha) was recorded in the treatment combination of 10 cm × 10 cm spacing and supplied with 125 per cent RDF plus PGPR consortia while, maximum B:C ratio of 13.17 was noted from plots where plants were spaced at 15 cm × 10 cm and supplied with nutrition of 100 per cent RDF plus PGPR consortia for seed purposes.

Authors: Menció-Padrón Daniel , Bouza-Allende Gemayqzel
Published: September 2023

The occurrence of a disaster and the appearance of a new product are items of news that can reach many people rapidly. Decision-makers would like to know how many individuals will obtain such information. In this paper, we study the case in which there are spreaders who think that the news is true and others that claim it is false. We simulate the propagation of a rumour and propose an algorithm for estimating the parameters of the resulting dynamical system. The relation between the parameters defining the simulation and the dynamical system is also studied. We conclude that the simulation describes the phenomenon well, in particular when the method proposed in this paper is used to estimate the parameters.

Published: September 2023

This paper aims to develop an inventory model considering discrete demand, coordinated pricing, and multiple delivery policy in a single-buyer single-supplier production-inventory system. The shortage is not allowed and the planning horizon is considered to be infinite. The main objective of the framework is to equip the decision-maker with optimal order, pricing, and shipment quantities to maximize the total profit of the system. The results obtained from the numerical example reveal that the proposed approach with an average selling price equal to about 94% of the classical model, has resulted in an average profit increase of about 16% and an average order increase of about 34% compared to the classical approach
Linear programming models for optimal workload and batching in pick-and-pass warehousing systems
Authors: Tarczyński Grzegorz
Published: September 2023

Pick-and-pass systems are a part of picker-to-parts order-picking systems and constitute a very common storage solution in cases where customer orders are usually small and need to be completed very quickly. As workers pick items in the zones connected by conveyor, their work needs to be coordinated. The paper presents MILP models that optimize the order-picking process. The first model uses information about expected demand for items to solve the storage location problem and balance the workload across zones. The task of the next model is order-batching and sequencing – two concepts are presented that meet different assumptions. The results of the exemplary tasks solved with the use of the proposed MILP models show that the total picking time of a set of orders can be reduced by about 35-45% in comparison with random policies. The paper presents an equation for the lower bound of a makespan. Recommendations about the number of zones that guarantee the required system efficiency are also introduced.

The influences of sintering temperature, sintering time and ash content on the properties of porous ceramsites were studied by experiments, and the phase composition, micro-morphology and pore structure characteristics of ceramsites were analyzed by XRD, SEM and BET. The experimental results showed that with the increase of sintering temperature and sintering time, the amount of molten liquid in ceramsite green bodies increased, the densification degree of ceramsites increased gradually, the bulk density and the apparent density increased gradually, and the water absorption and the apparent porosity decreased gradually. However, with the increase of coal slime ash content, the quantity of pores within ceramsites increased first and then decreased. When the coal slime ash content was 55%, the bulk density of porous ceramsite sample was 0.549g/cm3, the water absorption rate was 64.63%, the specific surface area was 19.40m2/g, the crushing rate and wear rate were 0.14%, with rough surface, porous structure and excellent water absorption performance, which met the optimum performance requirements of porous ceramsites. At the same time, this research also provides a new idea and method for the reuse of high-ash coal slime resource, a by-product of coal washing and dressing

The new three-dimensional coordination polymer termed {[Na2SDC(H2O)]}n (SDC2-= C16H10O42-) has been synthesized using workstation Easymax 102 while controlling the conditions and monitoring in-situ reagents. The metal complex was obtained in the reaction of sodium hydroxide with a suspension of 4,4’-stilbenedicarboxylic acid in aqueous medium. The compound was characterized by elemental analysis, single crystal, and powder X-ray diffraction methods, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, SEM and optical microscopy, TG-DSC and TG-FTIR thermal analysis in air and nitrogen atmosphere. In the crystal structure of {[Na2SDC(H2O)]}n appears penta- and hexacoordinated sodium atoms joined by octa- and decadentate SDC2- linkers. Aqua ligand acts as bridge between Na1 and Na2 atoms. The as-synthesized sodium complex is thermally stable up to 86oC whereas its dehydrated form has extreme stability up to 491oC. Removal of water molecule leads to the crystal-to-crystal transformation yielded changes in coordination modes of COO groups. Reversibility of the hydration process in the studied complex was also examined.
Extended Double Covers and Homomorphism Bounds of Signed Graphs
Authors: Foucaud Florent , Naserasr Reza , Xu Rongxing
Published: September 2023

A signed graph $(G, \sigma)$ is a graph $G$ together with an assignment $\sigma:E(G) \rightarrow \{+,-\}$. The notion of homomorphisms of signed graphs is a relatively new development which allows to strengthen the connection between the theories of minors and colorings of graphs. Following this thread of thoughts, we investigate this connection through the notion of Extended Double Covers of signed graphs, which was recently introduced by Naserasr, Sopena and Zaslavsky. More precisely, we say that a signed graph $(B, \pi)$ is planar-complete if any signed planar graph $(G, \sigma)$ which verifies the conditions of a basic no-homomorphism lemma with respect to $(B,\pi)$ admits a homomorphism to $(B, \pi)$. Our conjecture then is that: if $(B, \pi)$ is a connected signed graph with no positive odd closed walk which is planar-complete, then its Extended Double Cover ${\rm EDC}(B,\pi)$ is also planar-complete. We observe that this conjecture largely extends the Four-Color Theorem and is strongly connected to a number of conjectures in extension of this famous theorem. A given (signed) graph $(B,\pi)$ bounds a class of (signed) graphs if every (signed) graph in the class admits a homomorphism to $(B,\pi)$.In this work, and in support of our conjecture, we prove it for the subclass of signed $K_4$-minor free graphs. Inspired by this development, we then investigate the problem of finding optimal homomorphism bounds for subclasses of signed $K_4$-minor-free graphs with restrictions on their girth and we present nearly optimal solutions. Our work furthermore leads to the development of weighted signed graphs.

The main goal of this paper is to determine the asymptotic behavior of the number $X_n$ of cut-vertices in random planar maps with $n$ edges. It is shown that $X_n/n \to c$ in probability (for some explicit $c>0$). For so-called subcritical classes of planar maps (like outerplanar maps) we obtain a central limit theorem, too. Interestingly the combinatorics behind this seemingly simple problem is quite involved.

Published: September 2023

Background: Spinal cord injuries affect nearly 1 million people every year, more than 90% of all cervical injuries require intubation, most cases also require tracheostomy, and nearly 40% are ventilator dependent. This study aimed to describe critical care management of fracture dislocation of spine.  

Case Presentation: A 27-year-old male patient complained patient came with complaints of weakness in both limbs 13 hours before admission. Initially, the patient was driving a motorbike then the patient was involved in an accident with a car after the incident, the patient also felt a bit short of breath, could not move both his leg and hand, and could not feel defecation or urination. Patient was diagnosed with Fracture dislocation of C4-C5. The patient underwent elective decompression stabilization. Patient admitted to ICU with the majority requiring assisted ventilation. After five days in the ICU, the patient was challenged to be released from the ventilator, so the patient was performed early tracheostomy

Conclusion: Patients with cervical injuries require comprehensive care in the intensive care unit, especially in airway management and respiratory support, in addition to addressing the potentially catastrophic multisystem sequelae of nerve damage.
The Informative Value of CG Code Voluntary Disclosure on Firm Performance When Moderated by External Auditors

Published: September 2023

The study aims to empirically examine the voluntary disclosure of the corporate governance code (CG Code) of Thai-listed companies. It also examines the effects of the information value of the CG Code on firm performance and the moderating role of external audit quality in this effect. A disclosure specification comprising 137 voluntary items recommended by the OECD is employed to judgmentally evaluate the CG Code disclosed by the 95 fully implementing firms listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The analysis is performed using multivariate regression techniques along with Hayes’s regression-based analysis and shows that CG Code and audit quality have a statistically significant positive effect on firm performance. In addition, audit quality was found to moderate the positive effect of the CG Code on firm performance, such that the effect of the CG Code on firm performance is strengthened as the quality of audits increases. Specifically, the positive effect of CG Code on firm performance is stronger when the audit quality is at the average value and above, whereas CG Code shows no statistically significant effect on firm performance when audit quality is below average. The paper has contributed to the academic literature that managers should be motivated to voluntarily disclose the CG Code and also engage with high-quality auditors in general and Thailand in particular.

Published: September 2023

To date, Javanese-Indonesian coastal women have only been part of the batik craft industry, but their strategic roles and expressions have never been disclosed or cared. Whereas the feminine side and the aesthetic symbolic adaptation of Batik-crafter women are very important issues in the creation of the Indonesian cultural repertoire. This study succeeded in explaining the visual identity signs and aesthetic structures described by the community of the crafter woman in the Paoman Village, as well as revealing the meaning of the Indramayu written batik motif as a sign in coastal culture.

Tyrimo tikslas. Įvertinti akušerių profesinį perdegimą ir pasitenkinimą darbo aplinka. Tyrimo metodai. Atliktas anoniminis anketinis tyrimas Lietuvos sveikatos mokslų universiteto ligoninės Kauno klinikų Akušerijos ir ginekologijos klinikoje. Akušerėms išdalyta 100 anketų, iš kurių 80 buvo užpildytos tinkamai. Atsako dažnis – 80 proc. Statistinei duomenų analizei atlikti buvo naudojama „IBM SPSS 20.0“ programa. Atlikta aprašomoji statistika. Duomenų skirtumai laikyti statistiškai reikšmingais, kai p < 0,05. Rezultatai. Atlikto tyrimo metu nustatyta, jog beveik pusė akušerių patiria asmeninį, su darbu ir pacientais susijusį profesinį perdegimą. Asmeninio perdegimo raiškos galimybė reikšmingai didėjo akušerėms, kurios dirbo tik stacionare (p = 0,031). Su darbu ir pacientais susijęs perdegimas reikšmingai dažniau pasireiškė akušerėms, kurios turėjo mažesnį nei 10 metų darbo stažą, dirbo daugiau nei 12 val. per parą (p = 0,005). Didžioji dalis akušerių buvo patenkintos savo darbo aplinka. Daugiausia akušerių buvo patenkintos turimais darbo ištekliais. Mažiausiai – tobulėjimo galimybėmis.Pasitenkinimas turimais darbo ištekliais ir vadovavimo kokybe buvo didesnis akušerių, turinčių aukštąjį universitetinį išsilavinimą (p = 0,015). Didžiausias pasitenkinimas santykiais tarp akušerių ir gydytojų buvo akušerių, turinčių aukštąjį neuniversitetinį išsilavinimą (p = 0,015). Tobulėjimo galimybėmis buvo labiau patenkintos akušerės, kurios dirbo ambulatorijoje (p = 0,04). Nustatytas statistiškai reikšmingas neigiamas ryšys tarp akušerių perdegimo, susijusio su pacientais, ir santykių su gydytojais. Akušerės, kurios buvo patenkintos santykiais tarp akušerių ir gydytojų, rečiau patyrė perdegimą, susijusį su pacientais. Išvados. Beveik pusė tirtų akušerių patyrė tam tikros subskalės profesinį perdegimą, tačiau dauguma akušerių buvo patenkintos savo darbo aplinka. Išsilavinimas, darbo valandos, vieta ir stažas lėmė pasitenkinimą darbo aplinka ir profesinį perdegimą.
