Background: Despite the high prescription rates of Corticosteroids (CS), physicians have poor knowledge of the long-term effects and monitoring of CS. Objectives: To evaluate the knowledge of doctors in Maiduguri, Nigeria, on the use, adverse effects, and monitoring of corticosteroids. Methodology: A cross sectional survey involving 248 consenting doctors practicing in Maiduguri between 1st of January and 30th of March, 2020. Results: Of the 248 doctors surveyed, 161 completed the survey (response rate of 64.9%). Mean age was 34±5.6 years with 95 (59%) males. Majority (74.5%) had only MBBS and 125 (77.6%) were practicing in a tertiary setting, 43 (26.7%) and 38 (23.6%) were from Medicine and General Outpatient Department respectively. Seventy-four (50.7%) had been practicing for one to five years. All had prescribed CS before. Duration of practice was not associated with frequency of CS prescription (χ2 = 24.08, p=0.091). Prednisolone was the most commonly prescribed CS (48.4%) while, the oral route was the preferred mode of prescription by 80 (49.7%) respondents. Seventy-three (45.3%) prescribed CS for allergy, respiratory diseases, and dermatological complaints. Most (67.7%) were not aware of the dosage classification of CS but 99 (61.5%) were aware of guidelines for stopping CS during treatment. Majority (92.5%) were aware of multiple adverse effects of CS with 24.2% reporting Cushingoid changes. Seventy-eight (48.4%) routinely assess patients for adverse effects. Only, 4 (2.5%) and 6 (3.7%) of respondents routinely screen for osteoporosis and tuberculosis respectively. Less than 44% and 22% routinely screen for drug-drug interaction and CS complications respectively. Conclusion: There is low level of knowledge regarding the use and monitoring of CS in Maiduguri.

Background: Lupus nephritis (LN) is an immune complex glomerulonephritis that complicates up to 40% of SLE patients. A kidney biopsy is required for diagnosis and staging of the disease. Case report: We report a cohort of five patients with LN from a tertiary health facility in northeastern Nigeria. The five patients were all women with age ranging from 26 to 55 years, and eGFR of between 6 to 154ml/minute. Four patients had normal kidney size and were biopsied whereas 1 patient had contracted kidney. Diffuse proliferative LN (Class IV) was seen in two patients while the other two patients had glomerular sclerosis (Class VI). Patients were given induction with methylprednisolone and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). At one year follow up 2(40%) patients were in remission, 1(20%) was on maintenance hemodialysis and 2(40%) patients had died. Conclusion: Lupus nephritis is a common complication of SLE in northeastern Nigeria. Patients have features of advanced kidney disease at presentation.

I tornado negli USA: un'analisi dell'archivio dati (1950-2018)
Authors: Pinna Sergio
Published: July 2021

A statistical analysis of the data contained in the NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center tornado archive (covering the period 1950-2018) has been carried out. The actual average values of the frequencies for the various intensity classes could be effectively provided for the period 1991-2018, because of some inhomogeneities of the archive due to variations in the methods and procedures of tornado reporting. The time series of the frequency of F2, F3, F4 and F5 events showed decreasing trends; this decline seems largely due to a significant reduction of the strongest events. This interpretation is supported by the decreasing trends of normalized economic losses and of number of victims.

Hasil: Keberadaan konsep dan praktik manajemen pendidikan dewasa ini dirasakan perlu ada sentuhan baru. Hal demikian karena manajemen pendidikan merupakan ilmu terapan manajemen dalam dunia pendidikan. Sebagai ilmu yang berkembang dari dunia bisnis, norma dan etika keilmuan manajemen tidak dapat dipisahkan dari motif-motif ekonomi, hubungan manusiawi, dan aspek-aspek organisasi. Padahal dirasakan ada hal-hal fundamental pendidikan yang tidak bisa sekedar dengan pendekatan bisnis. Bahkan sebagaimana lazim pada keilmuan barat, persoalan moral dan etika seringkali terlepas dari pengembangan ilmu manajemen itu sendiri.
Kesimpulan: Dalam peningkatan mutu dan kualitas, diperlukan adanya manajemen yang baik guna mencapai tujuan tersebut Namun, tidak mengurangi eksistensi dari lembaga pendidikan itu sendiri. Sekolah Berasrama adalah alternatif terbaik buat para orang tua menyekolahkan anak mereka dalam kondisi apapun Mereka tidak hanya hidup untuk dirinya dan keluarganya tapi juga harus berbuat untuk bangsa dan Negara. Oleh sebab itu dukungan fasilitas terbaik, tenaga pengajar berkualitas, dan lingkungan yang kondusif harus didorong untuk mencapai cita-cita anak bangsa.

Published: July 2021

O presente artigo reflete sobre a importância do ensino de História diante das proporções que a polarização político-ideológica vem assumindo no Brasil. A passos largos a polarização vem agravando ainda mais o cenário da pandemia causada pelo Coronavírus (SARS-CoV-2). Discursos negacionistas e revisionistas se propagam através de meios cibernéticos ancorados numa linguagem simplista e simplificada que evoca falsos discursos de verdade. Uma expressiva parte dos estudantes da Educação Básica hoje, estão conectados às redes sociais e recebem o conteúdo negacionista, revisionista diariamente. Diante desse cenário,  a função do ensino de História precisa estar voltada à construção de espaços de sensibilidade e alteridade, contribuindo para uma sociedade humanizada que valoriza a vida, a ciência e a reflexão sistemática dos fatos.
A semantic common model for product data in the water industry
Authors: Alani Yasir , Dawood Nashwan , Patacas João , Rodriguez Sergio , Dawood Huda
Published: July 2021

The issue of interoperability in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry represents a challenge on a scale that spans across the project life cycle. This is predominant in the infrastructure sector that usually comprises a more versatile Operations and Maintenance (O&M) phase in comparison with the buildings sector. To this end, an important stage in the information life cycle is the asset information capture and validation during product procurement at the O&M phase. The water industry in the United Kingdom relies on Product Data Templates (PDTs) to fulfil such task, which is usually an error prone manual process. This paper presents an ongoing research, which investigates the application of Semantic Web Technologies (SWT) for improving product data exchange during product procurement at the O&M phase for the water industry in the United Kingdom (UK). Therefore, focus group sessions with industry experts were held to discuss current inefficiencies and solution requirements. Based on these results, a semantic common model named Asset Specification Ontology (ASO) was developed to capture and validate asset information during product procurement at the O&M phase. The common model (ontology) is based on available technologies, namely Web Ontology Language (OWL) and Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL). This gives the advantage of semantically rich data which can be linked and queried in a meaningful way to facilitate the exchange and validation of water industry assets’ data. The uniqueness of this paper is manifested in the issue it tackles, as efficient product procurement, and hence, data exchange in the water industry is an industrial challenge that is seldom researched. Results from the focus group sessions showed that information exchange within the UK water industry is impeded due to the lack of structured and semantic data. However, for a robust semantic interoperability, there needs to be a robust semantic data infrastructure, which would require semantic mappings from standards to product properties, from standards to other standards, and from standards to dictionaries. These conclusions were further supported by the common model, which was created from existing schemas, standards, and dictionaries. Generally, this paper recommends a common model/product library for phase-specific product data exchange in the water industry.

Published: July 2021

Efforts to increase the production of chilli plants are still experiencing obstacles. One of the diseases caused by fungi is fusarium wilt disease caused by Fusarium sp. The existence of this fungus attack makes one of the limiting factors that cause a decrease in red chili production. Local microorganism (MOL) solution is a fermented solution made from various local available resources. MOL solution contains micro and macro nutrients and also contains bacteria that have the potential to remodel organic matter, stimulate growth, and as a controlling agent for pests and plant diseases, so that MOL can be used both as a decomposer, biological fertilizer and as an organic pesticide, especially as a fungicide.In this research, bacterial isolation from MOL bamboo shoots will be carried out and then tested the isolates on Fusarium sp. The data of this research were analyzed descriptive. The results of isolation from bamboo shoot MOL which has been fermented for use as POC, obtained 8 bacterial isolates with different macroscopic and microscopic characteristics. All obtained bacterial isolates have the potential to inhibit the growth of fusarium fungal colonies. The most potential bacterial isolate was M6 isolate with a diameter of a pathogenic fungal colony that grew only by 2.1 cm. Keywords: Fusarium sp., Local Microorganisms, Bamboo Shoots

The kingdom of fungi comprises a large and highly diverse group of organisms that thrive in diverse natural environments. One factor to successfully confront challenges in their natural habitats is the capability to synthesize defensive secondary metabolites. The genetic potential for the production of secondary metabolites in fungi is high and numerous potential secondary metabolite gene clusters have been identified in sequenced fungal genomes. Their production may well be regulated by specific ecological conditions, such as the presence of microbial competitors, symbionts or predators. Here we exemplarily summarize our current knowledge on identified secondary metabolites of the pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus and their defensive function against (microbial) predators.

Primary cardiac arrhythmias are much less common in infants and children than in adults, their symptoms can be vague and nonspecific. Although real emergencies because of unstable arrhythmias in children are rare, it is important to identify and properly manage these cases. The study presents the case of a child who was admitted for respiratory symptoms, clinical examination discovering the heart rate of 214 bpm. The child became progressively anxious, showing a respiratory effort. The study of electrocardiogram established the diagnosis of anterior fascicular ventricular tachycardia with a tendency to become permanent. The evolution was favorable after the electrical cardioversion and preventive treatment with Verapamil had been performed.

Fibroza chistică (FC) este cea mai comună afecţiune autozomal recesivă la populaţia caucaziană. Boala pulmonară se caracterizează prin afectarea clearance-ului mucociliar cu obstrucţia căilor aeriene, infecţie şi inflamaţie cronică. Wheezingul este un simptom comun în FC, dar în unele cazuri este determinat de prezenţa concomitentă a astmului. Nu există un consens în cum definim astmul în fibroza chistică, dar diagnosticul se bazează în principal pe istoricul personal şi familial de atopie al pacientului.

Prescripţia „off-label“ reprezintă administrarea medicamentelor pe o cale neaprobată, într-o formulare sau doză neaprobată la copii, sau sub intervalul de vârstă indicat pe prospectul aprobat al produsului. Cu toate acestea, tratamentul cu indicaţii off-label este un fenomen larg răspândit în clinicile de pediatrie. Deoarece multe dintre medicamentele prescrise nu au fost testate în mod adecvat la copii, această populaţie de pacienţi rămâne vulnerabilă. Pe de o parte, folosirea indicaţiilor off-label la copii determină o mulţime de controverse, pe de altă parte, fără această posibilitate, unii pacienţi ar putea fi lipsiţi de şansa de a fi trataţi. Lucrarea prezintă amplitudinea fenomenului de prescriere a medicamentelor cu indicaţii off-label la copii, evaluată în studii ştiinţifice din SUA şi Europa. În multitudinea de medicamente prescrise off-label la copii se înscrie şi Sildenafil. Autorii îşi propun prezentarea situaţiei din România cu privire la medicamentul Sildenafil şi utilizarea acestuia în unităţile de cardiologie pediatrică.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians. Lung disease is characterized by impaired mucocilliary clearance with airway obstruction and chronic pulmonary infection and inflammation. Wheeze is a common symptom in CF, but in some cases the wheeze is due to the presence of concomitant asthma. There is no consensus on how to define CF asthma, but the diagnosis is predominantly based on the patient’s strong family and personal history of atopy.
