Published: January 2022

The article discusses the problem of carcinogenic risk assessment in the context of relationship with diagnostic radiation resulted from Computed Tomography (CT). The study aimed to evaluate the possible long-term carcinogenic effects after the exposure to a low dose of diagnostic radiation, appeared within a decade after the 1st CT scan. Information on patients examined using CT in the District Hospital of Kasli (KDH) has been derived from the CT archives since 2009 when the first CT examinations has been performed in the KDH. The data were linked to local Cancer registry, the Death registry, and the “CT Registry” database (CTDB) to obtain the information on vital status, the cause of death, cancer morbidity and CT examinations outside KDH, respectively. 275 CT examinations of 246 patients have been recorded to the data file (KDH cluster). To the end of the study, 46 cases of malignant tumours (MT) have been accumulated in the study group. The average observation time was 6.5 years (90% CI 6.2-6.8). The distribution of cancers among patients exposed to CT has been shown retrospectively through the date of birth of patient to December, 31, 2018. The cases of MT diagnosed prior to 1st CT examination have been excluded from the analyses. Cancer-related conditions stated before the date of 1stCT examination have been accounted. The cumulative cancer incidence after the exposure to CT, adjusted for predisposed conditions in the study group was 4.8%. The study results have been compared with the results of the LSS cohort study to assess the expected excess cancer morbidity. The data obtained in the study provide the information for a comprehensive epidemiological assessment of long-term effects related to diagnostic radiation exposure in the Ozyorsk Computed Tomography Cohort (OCTC study). Doi: 10.28991/SciMedJ-2021-0304-3 Full Text: PDF

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a gram negative bacteria that is known to cause nosocomial infections. Carbapenem is used to treat the damage caused by P. aeruginosa, however it is becoming resistant to carbapenems because of the production of β-lactamases. The objectives of the study were to systematically review the prevalence of blaNDM-1 in carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) and to review and analyze the clinical sources as well as the antibiotic resistance profile of CRPA carrying blaNDM-1. Methods: The researchers systematically searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were included in the review. In assessing the methodological quality of the included studies, the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Studies Reporting Prevalence Data and the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Case Reports were used. Results: A total of nine studies were included in which eight were cross-sectional studies and one was a case report. The highest prevalence rate reported was 54.55% in blaNDM-1 positive CRPA isolates among the cross-sectional studies. The three most frequent sources of clinical isolates of CRPA carrying blaNDM-1 include urine, wound discharge, and tissue, among the included studies. Lastly, this review showed that among the included studies, CRPA isolates carrying blaNDM-1 were most resistant to ceftazidime and gentamicin. Conclusions: There is varying prevalence of blaNDM-1 in CRPA in different countries. Urine, wound discharge, and tissue specimens being the most frequent sources of CRPA isolates carrying blaNDM-1 poses a challenge that must be given attention by the  infection control committee, thus the need for proper handling and processing of clinical specimens. Resistance to ceftazidime and gentamicin among the CRPA isolates carrying blaNDM-1highlights the growing challenge of successfully treating infections caused by this bacteria. This challenge reminds us of the importance and purpose of antibiotic stewardship that emphasizes the improvement of proper antibiotic prescription by the physicians and proper antibiotic use by the patients that can help in preventing harm and antibiotic resistance. Doi: 10.28991/SciMedJ-2021-0304-9 Full Text: PDF

Authors: White Tony
Published: January 2022

This paper examines some of the main writings about deconfusion of the Child in the transactional analysis literature. It seeks to show how each approach defines the goals of deconfusion and the methods by which deconfusion is obtained. In doing this it clarifies the three methods which Berne proposed could be used for such deconfusion. It also attempts to show how redecision therapy adds to the literature on the topic, which to the writer's knowledge has not been done before.

Later it enhanced its production from 1000 TCD to 8500 TCD in the year 1962.  It was amalgamating many subunits and multi locational products into its main unit.  The company has focused its attention on various projects and substantial resources. Subsequently, they have decided to organize the company into two units one in southern India and one in northern India. 

Sugar industry is a vital agro industry largely depends on agriculture in India and is extremely accountable for creating a major impact on rural economy in particular and the country's economic status on broad-spectrum. Sugar production has a yield in the Indian subcontinent since ancient times. Then subsequently evolutes around the globe1. Sugarcane is a native of tropical Indian domain and spread over to the vital segments of world. Sugarcane plantation would be carried out twice in every year in India. The majority of the sugar production in India takes at regional sugar mills2. Subsequently in the post independence era India contemplated for overall augmentation of sugar industry3.

The Indian sugar industry is independent in its energy needs and further makes additional exportable power through cogeneration. The different byproducts of sugar industry likewise add to the economic development of the nation to advancing various additional industries. Sugarcane has developed as a multi-product crop utilized as an essential raw material for the manufacture of sugar, ethanol, paper, electricity and besides a cogeneration of subsidiary product.

Published: January 2022

The time series data used is time series data following the LLTM (local linear trend model) model with four different error conditions. These conditions are Clean Data (CD), Symmetric Outliers (SO), Asymmetric Outliers (AO) and Fat-tailed data (FT). The time series data contains symmetric and asymmetric outliers that can affect forecasting. The forecasting method used for the trend data pattern is the Holt smoothing method. The forecasting of the data series when it is spinning using the Holt smoothing method is not good enough so that it requires a handler with the smoothing method of Holt robustness. The Holt robustness smoothing method that is carried out on time series simulation data is better used for the condition of scattered data compared to the Holt smoothing method. This is indicated by the value of evaluating the goodness of the method, namely the value of MAD (Mean Absolute Deviation) produced. The smaller MAD value for CD condition training data is the Holt smoothing method, while the data testing method for Holt and robust Holt smoothing is almost comparable. SO's condition for training data and data testing for smaller MAD values is the smoothing method of robust Holt. The condition of AO for training data and data testing for smaller MAD values is the smoothing method of robust Holt. In addition, the MAD value in FT conditions for training data and data testing found almost comparable results between the two methods.

Published: January 2022

The use of high doses of chemical fertilizers in the production of chili (Capsicum annuum L.) has an adverse impact on the environment, especially in dryland. This study aimed to examine the role of cow manure (PKS), goat manure (PKK), chicken manure (PKA), or a combination of two manures in reducing 25% of the requirement for chemical fertilizer on chili plants. One experiment was carried out in the dryland of Gumantar Village, North Lombok Regency, from May to October 2021. Phonska NPK (15-15-15) chemical fertilizer (PK) at a 1,200 kg/ha dose was used as a control. The treatments tested were 75% PK+PKS, 75% PK+PKK, 75% PK+PKA, 75% PK+PKS+PKK, 75% PK+PKS+PKA and 75% PK+PKK+PKA. The dose of manure used in each treatment was 20 tons/ha. All treatments were repeated three times and arranged in a randomized block design. The results showed that the treatment of manure, especially goat manure and chicken manure, increased the available phosphate (P) in the soil. The growth and yield of chili plants were not significantly different in all treatments, which means that manure could replace the role of 25% of the chemical fertilizer used. These results indicate that manure in the long term can reduce the need for chemical fertilizers to produce chili in dryland.

Published: January 2022

This study examined the interface reaction between sessile drops of the Ag-xAl filler metals having x = 0.2, 0.5, and 1.0 wt-% and KovarTM base material as an avenue to understand the run-out phenomenon observed in active filler metal braze joints. The brazing conditions were combinations of 965°C (1769°F) and 995°C (1823°F) temperatures and brazing times of 5 and 20 min. All brazing was performed in a vacuum of 10–7 Torr. Microanalysis confirmed that a reaction layer developed ahead of the filler metal to support spontaneous wetting and spreading activity. However, run-out was not observed with the sessile drops because the additional surface energy created by the sessile drop free surface constrained wetting and spreading. The value of z in the reaction layer composition, (Fe, Ni, Co)yAlz, increased with x of the Ag-xAl sessile drops for both brazing conditions. Generally, the values of z were lower for the more severe brazing conditions. Also, the reaction layer thickness increased with the Al concentration in the filler metal but did not increase with the severity of brazing conditions. These behaviors indicate that the interface reaction was controlled by the chemical potential rather than the rate kinetics of a thermally activated process. The determining metrics were filler metal composition (Ag-xAl) and brazing temperature. The findings of the present study provided several insights toward developing potential mitigation strategies to prevent run-out.
Analysis of a High-Strength Steel SMAW Database
Authors:   American Welding Society, SAMPATH KRISHNA
Published: January 2022

Recently, Dr. Glyn M. Evans posted a large shielded metal arc (SMA) weld metal (WM) database on the ResearchGate website (researchgate.net). This database contains more than 950 WM compositions, along with their respective WM tensile and Charpy V-notch (CVN) impact properties. In particular, the CVN impact properties list the test temperatures that achieved 28 and 100 J impact energy for each WM composition. While the availability of this SMA WM database is a valuable and rare gift to the welding community, how could the welding community analyze this database to gain valuable insights? This paper utilizes a constraints-based model (CBM) as a simple and effective framework to organize and analyze this very large Fe-C-Mn SMA WM database. A CBM is built on the metallurgical principle that one needs to lower relevant solid-state phase transformation (i.e., austenite decomposition) temperatures to improve WM strength and fracture toughness while simultaneously reducing carbon content and Yurioka’s carbon equivalent number (CEN) to improve the weldability of high-strength steels. To this end, a CBM identifies and simultaneously solves several statistical (regression) equations that relate the chemical composition of high-strength steel WM with Yurioka’s CEN and selected solid-state phase transformation temperatures related to austenite decomposition. The results of the current effort demonstrate that the analysis of Evans’s shielded metal arc welding database using a CBM as a framework reaffirms that controlling carbon content, the value of the CEN, and calculated solid-state phase transformation temperatures, particularly the difference between the calculated Bs (bainite-start) and Ms (martensite-start) temperatures, is critical to developing and identifying high-performance, high-strength steel welding electrodes. A dual approach that manipulates the contents of principal alloy elements such as C, Mn, Ni, Cr, Mo, and Cu, and adds controlled amounts of Ti, B, Al, O, and N, appears to offer the best means to lower relevant solid-state phase transformation temperatures to produce high-strength and high-toughness WMs.

Romantic Periods
Authors: Cubero Diego
Published: January 2022

This article examines the transformation of the period in the early Romantic era. While in Classical periods the end of the antecedent phrase is harmonically closed off from the beginning of the consequent phrase, Romantic periods often join the end of the antecedent to the beginning of the consequent, creating an undivided progression. Voice-leading analyses illustrate three different means of joining the antecedent to the consequent: 1) by overlapping the two phrases, 2) by prolonging and resolving the antecedent’s closing dominant, and 3) by ending the antecedent on a predominant. All three procedures involve converting a dividing dominant into a progressive dominant.
Rebonds: Structural Affordances, Negotiation, and Creation
Authors: Duinker Ben
Published: January 2022

This paper presents a comparative recording analysis of the seminal work for solo percussion Rebonds (Iannis Xenakis, 1989), in order to demonstrate how performances of a musical work can reveal—or even create—aspects of musical structure that score-centered analysis cannot illuminate. In doing so I engage with the following questions. What does a pluralistic, dynamic conception of structure look like for Rebonds? How do interpretive decisions recast performers as agents of musical structure? When performances diverge from the score in the omission of notes, the softening of accents, the insertion of dramatic tempo changes, or the altering of entire passages, do conventions that arise out of those performance practices become part of the structural fabric of the work? Are these conventions thus part of the Rebonds “text”?
Performing Analysis, Performing Metal
Authors: Lucas Olivia R.
Published: January 2022

Light shows at contemporary rock concerts generally create an immersive, multi-sensory experience. In their most sophisticated forms, however, they provide a visual analysis of the music as it unfolds. This paper presents a case study of what I call the analytical light show, by examining how the intricate light shows of extreme metal band Meshuggah contribute an interpretive layer that not only promotes multi-sensory engagement, but also actively guides listeners through songs’ formal structures.

Meshuggah’s light shows, created by lighting designer Edvard Hansson, are exhaustively synchronized to the rhythmic patterns of the guitars and drums. Meticulous use of color, brightness, directionality, placement pattern, and beam movement provide additional information about gesture, articulation, and pitch. These analytical light shows provide a three-dimensional visual score that dramatizes rhythms while guiding listeners through each riff. Through this lighting, spatial and bodily metaphors of musical movement—high and low, moving and holding still—are transmuted into visual representation. By presenting analysis and performance simultaneously and as each other, Meshuggah combines technical virtuosity with rock authenticity, and provides another example of what I have called “coercive synesthesia” (Lucas 2014), as the lighting becomes an inextricable part of the musical experience. Beyond the confines of metal culture, I study the analytical light show as an expression of vernacular musical analysis that combines specific analytical and technical expertise with the intuitive, embodied knowledge that experienced music listeners possess.
Cytokine storm interference
Authors: Michael John Dochniak
Published: January 2022

Viral infections are a natural and inevitable part of life. In healthy individuals, mortality increases when the body’s innate immune system quickly activates, creating a cytokine storm. A rapid and excessive release of cytokines into the bloodstream can cause acute respiratory distress syndrome and death. This communication proposes inhibiting cytokine storm development through forced atopy. Hyper-allergenic skin cream therapy stimulates adaptive immunity to support innate immunity before acute infection.

Published: January 2022

The clamour for engineering and infrastructure in national development in all spheres of development is more in the developed nations but the responsibility is no less for the developing economies/nations. A lot of effort has been made in sustaining engineering and infrastructural development in Nigeria; still there are more deficiencies in the formalization. Therefore this paper contributes to effort of formalizing the role it play in the national development. The sources of data were mainly on secondary source which rely on much of literature review and the analysis was analytical. The finding reveals the role of engineering and infrastructure in national development and its sustainability. It also state that institution should be established to set a clear plans and rule for service provision, regulate and monitor service quality, coordinate engineering and infrastructural project efficiently and equitably in maintenance of the existing infrastructure. The paper concludes that the government is encouraged to show more commitment to engineering and infrastructure development than ever. It also states that good quality engineering and infrastructure is necessary to avoid bottlenecks and services disruption and to support a range of importance activities in the economy. It was recommended that government should ensure that the standard and policies relating to infrastructural development are addressed and handled holistically. And that effective evaluation of contracts, consulting and construction services of the required professionals should be put in place for proper implementation.

Sugarcane (Saccharum Offcinarum L) is one of the important commodities for making sugar which has become a necessity for industry and households. Sugarcane which is processed into sugar granules or often known as brown sugar is located in the Ketol District, Central Aceh Regency. Central Aceh Regency, especially in Ketol District, West Blang Mancung Village, is one of the sugar cane producers. Sugarcane is an annual plant that has its own characteristics, because in the stem there is sugar, sugarcane plants belong to the grass family (Gramenia) such as rice, corn and others. Linear regression analysis is an indirect approach that is used to measure the effect of the volume of sugarcane juice on the wages of workers in the sugar mill Sulaiman Ali sugarcane mill, Ketol District, Central Aceh Regency. The results of the linear regression analysis obtained from the research results are the equation = 7179,497 + 14,464 X1. Where it means that every increase in the total volume of sugarcane juice by 14,464 will increase the wage income of milling workers at the Sulaiman Ali sugarcane refinery, Ketol District, Central Aceh Regency, amounting to Rp. 14,464 /person with an average income of Rp. Rp 34,656.25/person/one production process.

Published: January 2022

RESUMO: Este trabalho busca discutir mediação de leitura literária na escola fazendo uma analogia com passagens da obra O menino no espelho, de Fernando Sabino. Nesse sentido acreditamos que é preciso revisitar o mundo infantil, suas perspectivas, necessidades e, sobretudo, seus tipos de interação com o texto literário, afinal, apenas compreendendo que crianças e adolescentes são sujeitos ativos na construção de conhecimento é que seremos capazes de dialogar com seus repertórios de leitura e vivências, a fim de mediar novos encontros frutíferos no mundo da ficção. Percebemos que a escola é, ainda, vastamente pautada pelo discurso homogeneizador, fundamentado no saber legitimado pela crítica e/ou pelos manuais didáticos, quando o assunto é o que se deve ler. Assim, esquece-se que a leitura literária para crianças e adolescentes deve, primeiramente, ser capaz de encantar, de mobilizar, a partir de convenções compartilhadas, o universo psíquico e emocional desses.

Esta pesquisa analisa o romance Meio Sol Amarelo (2006), de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, tendo como base a teoria literária feminista, com foco nas personagens Olanna e Kainene. Para esta investigação, foram utilizados autoras como Beauvoir (1967;1970), Bourdieu (2012), Perrot (2007), Woolf (1990), e outras. O objetivo central do estudo foi analisar como as personagens femininas do romance cedem às imposições patriarcais ou conseguem romper com elas, impondo-se e exigindo a igualdade entre os gêneros. Olanna apresenta-se mais passiva às imposições patriarcais, porque ela se encaixa e segue os padrões de mulher ideal da época, aceitando a traição do marido, ansiando pela maternidade. Kainene consegue uma libertação superior, mas sofre com as condições em que isso ocorre, já que as conquistas estão atreladas à sua condição de mulher feia. As irmãs gêmeas não idênticas, Olanna e Kainene, enfrentam de maneira distinta as imposições patriarcais, pois possuem padrões estéticos distintos que as diferenciam socialmente. A análise revela que a classe social elevada das imãs é de suma importância para as conquistas que elas usufruem, pois possuem acesso à boa educação, o que lhes permite romper com as imposições sociais familiares.
