Authors: Johnbosco Emeka Umunnakwe  , ThankGod Kelechi Ezirim  , Chris Onyeka Ekweozor
Published: February 2022

This study evaluated the influence of prevailing meteorological characteristics on the concentration of air parameters in Onitsha metropolis, Anambra State, Nigeria in 2019. The information is required in meteorological forecasts, wind climatology, weather characteristics for planning control measures which might improve or worsen air quality, essential to evaluating air pollution control in the study area. A total of forty sampling points and one control point were selected and used for the study across Onitsha metropolis. The sampling points were selected in accordance with WHO guidelines for sampling point selection. Air quality and meteorological data were collected in-situ from primary sources in the field via portable air quality instrument and Kestrel 4500NV weather tracker. The results showed that wind direction was predominantly North-east in the dry season and South-west in the wet season. Temperature levels in the area were found to be higher in the dry season than in the wet season. Conversely, relative humidity levels were higher in the wet season than in the dry seasons. It also showed that some parameters such as SO2, NO2, H2S, VOC2, CO, PM2.5 and PM10 had higher concentrations in the dry season than in the wet season. On the other hand, TSP, PM10 and PM7 showed higher concentrations in the wet season than during dry season. High levels of measured air quality parameters were recorded around major junctions and market places within Onitsha, which are harmful to public health. Air movements influenced the fate of air pollutants; If the air was calm and pollutants couldn’t disperse, then the concentration of these pollutants would build up. On the other hand, when strong, turbulent winds blew, pollutants dispersed quickly, resulting in lower pollutant concentrations. The study further showed that transportation activities and trading activities at the market places were the main sources of high concentration levels of air parameters in the study area. Health impact assessment should be conducted in Onitsha metropolis for residents. State government should enforce compliance laws and regulate the activities of industries in the areas. The findings showed that meteorological data could help identify the source of pollutants, predict air pollution events, simulate and predict air quality using computer models. Identifying the sources means planning to reduce the impacts on air quality by anthropogenic activities.

Authors: Hersi Abdel Karim Mohamed , Ali Abdalla Mohamed
Published: February 2022

Onion bulb crop production using sets as planting material has been increasing for the last decade in response to the high demand and because of their high yielding capacity and adaptability to the continuously changing growing environment. The objective of this experiment, therefore, was to investigate the effect of seed rate on the yield and quality of onion setsas a highly demanded planting material. Treatments comprised two cultivars (Kamlin and Saggai) and three seed rates (60,120 and 180 kg/ha.). They were arranged in a split plot design with three replications. Cultivars were in themain plots and seed rates in the subplots. Average set weight and total set yield decreased with increasing seed rate. The highest yield was produced at 60 kg/ha and the lowest at 180 kg/ha. seed rate. Yield of the set size distribution categories was significantly affected by seed rate; seed rate of 120kg/ha resulted in the highest yield of medium set (best for production ofbulbs), followed by 60 and 180 kg/ha. Yield of set size categories decreased with increasing seed rate except for small set size category which significantly increased with increasing seed rate

Published: February 2022

The present research was carried out at Guneid Sugar Cane Research Center during two successive seasons 2013/14 and 2014/15. The objective was to investigate the effect of four tillage systems (moldboard ploughing (T1), disc ploughing (T2), chisel ploughing (T3) and disc harrowing (T4)), three irrigation intervals (7, 10, and 14 days) and twoplanting methods (manual and mechanical) on sugar beet production. The parameters measured were machinery performance as effective field capacity (EFC), field efficiency (FE) and Fuel consumption (FC), some soil parameters (soil moisture content and bulk density), some crop parameters (root thickness (RT), crop root yield (RY), polarization or sugar content (Pol %), total sugar production (TSP) and cost of production. A spilt -split plot design with four replications was used inthis study. The results showed that all machine performance parameters measured were significantly different and the highest EFC, FE and FC were recorded by the planter, ridger and chisel machines respectively.Tillage treatments and irrigation intervals interaction insignificantly affected soil moisture content and significantly (P≤0.01) affected soil bulk density. The highest values of RT (38.6 cm), RY (31.9 t/fed), Pol % (19.9%) and TSP (4.9 t/fed) was recorded by (T3×M2×I1), (T2×M1×I2), (T4×M2×I3) and (T2×M1×I1) treatments respectively. The highest (4280 SDG/fed) and lowest (3290 SDG/fed) total cost of production was  recorded by (T1×M1×I1) and (T4×M2×I4) treatments respectively. It can be concluded that generally disc ploughing with 10 days irrigation intervaland manual planting can give higher crop root yield, higher TSP and lower cost of production at Guneid Sugar Cane Research Center

Published: February 2022

High temperature is one of the major limiting factors in wheat production. Climate change accompanied by increasing temperature affect wheat grain yield in Sudan as in many other tropical countries. The aim ofthis research was to evaluate the response of six bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars to heat stress, based on morphological and protein content. A field experiment was conducted for two successive seasons(2014/2015 and 2015/2016) during which seeds were sown at three different sowing dates (early, medium and late) to subject the crop to different levels of temperature. To screen and assess performance of cultivars the agro-morphological characters, yield and yield-components traits as well as the protein content were used. Results indicated thatsowing wheat cultivars at early date (9th November) achieved the highest grain yield, while sowing at a late date (16 December) significantly (P≤ 0.05) reduced grain yield, grain filling period, plant height, number of spikes/m2, kernels per spike and 1000-kernal weight compared to sowing at 9th November due to heat stress. Cultivars Condor, Debeira and Argeenproduced the highest: grain yield, number of spikes per m2, number of kernal per spike and the heaviest kernels weight, while Sasaraib and El Neelain, followed by Condor and Argeen had the highest mean protein content (PC%) during the two seasons. Cluster analysis based on the agromorphological data divided the six wheat cultivars according to their response to different levels of heat, into three groups at 0.95 level of similarity with no clear correlation between these characters and the sowing date.

Introduction: The anaesthetist should protect the airways during induction, recovery and maintenance during anaesthesia. The Macintosh blade is the utmost prevalent blades with a slightly back curved that extends all the way to the tip. The McCoy blade is grounded on a normal Macintosh blade with a hinged tip and is functioned by a lever mechanism located at the handle back. Objective: This study attempts to compare McCoy and Macintosh blades to facilitate intubation for glottis imaging. Place and Duration: In the Department of Anesthesia, Divisional Headquarter teaching Hospital Mirpur Azad Kashmir for six months duration from June 2021 to November 2021. Method: The study included 70 Grade I and II ASA adults of both sexes (20 to 60 years) who endured planned surgery under GA necessitating intubation by endotracheal tube. Using a computer-generated randomization table, individuals were assigned randomly to any of the 2 groups contingent on the type of laryngoscope blades used while doing intubation. After anaesthesia induction, ‘laryngoscopy’ was done and the intubation of trachea was done. McCoy Laryngoscope Blade was used in In Group A while Macintosh Laryngoscope Blade in Group B. The number of trials, Cormack Lehane classification, the necessity for external laryngeal manipulation and degree of intubation difficulty were evaluated. Results: Both groups were comparable for sex, weight, age, height, MPC grading, ASA status and among the two groups; no statistically significant alteration was noted (p-value> 0.05). In Group A and B Cormack Lehane classification in Grade-I scored 82.9% and 60%, correspondingly, while Grade-II scoring in Group A and B were 17% and 25.8%, correspondingly. The Grade-I Intubation Difficulty score (IDS) in Groups A and Group B were 88.6% and 80%, respectively, while Grade-II IDS in Groups A and B were 11.4% and 14.2%. 8.5% of patients in group A and 5.7% of patients in group B required two intubation attempts. Conclusion: There are no significant fluctuations to the glottis visualization with Macintosh and McCoy laryngoscopes, but in terms of external manipulation of larynx, the McCoy laryngoscope is superior to the Macintosh laryngoscope in terms of comfort of intubation.

Aim: To compare between intramedullary nailing and plating in diaphyseal tibial fractures with intact fibula Study design: Randomized controlled trial Place and duration: This study was conducted at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences Islamabad, Pakistan from February 2020 to February 2021. Methodology: During these two years of study period, 1470 limb fracture patients were treated at our institute from which 114 were qualified to participate in this study. A total of 73 patients who were eligible for the experiment were enrolled, and a total of 69 of them were monitored for at least a year. Plating fractures and intramedullary nailing are both common surgical methods that may be used in the treatment of fractures in the femur. Patients' reports of pain or discomfort in the limb were significant predictors of failure in both therapies. We monitored the factors including the length of surgery, the quantity of blood lost, and the time it took to accomplish union. Results: Intramedullary nailing resulted in a single nonunion (P = 0.285) and one patient developed a late, deep infection in the screw position (P = 0.478), which was cured by screw removal. Although the intramedullary group required more procedures to accomplish union, the tibial fractures in both groups were healed in around 4 months (dynamization was done in 4 patients, representing 12.1% of the total, P = 0.047). Two patients in the intramedullary group (6.1%) and four patients in the plate group (11.1%) had implants removed during the follow-up period, which was not statistically significant (P = 0.675). A statistically significant difference between the two groups was found only when it came to the number of patients reporting limb pain and the number of people reporting knee discomfort (P = 0.001). The plate group included 29 patients with no complaints, whereas the intramedullary group had 18 patients (54.4%) with no complaints and 13 patients (39.5%) with knee discomfort. Conclusion: Both methods are suitable treatments for closed noncomminuted solitary tibial fractures, as per the findings of this study; moreover, patients who receive intramedullary nails are more likely to require additional operations to achieve union and to complain of discomfort in their limbs or knees. Keywords: tibial fracture, nailing, bone plates, intramedullary

Harnessing Mesorhizobial inoculants on the grain legume Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Ethiopia and contributions to promoting plant growth: Review
Authors: Zehara Mohammed Damtew  , Fassil Assefa
Published: February 2022

Chickpea is an important legume that serves as a vital source of nutrition in many regions of Ethiopia and sustain cropping system productivity due to its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen. Legumes such as chickpea possess seeds with high protein content therefore, require high supply of nitrogen. To realize this requirement, the crop embraces nodule on its root where bacteria of the genus Mesorhizobium live with a specific function of converting the atmospheric nitrogen into plant available form called biological nitrogen fixation. However, the potential of the crop to accomplished the current demand of nitrogen for poor soils is limited by its association with symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria, poor understanding of the relationship between strain diversity and symbiotic performance. Therefore, the present review will be used as a baseline to understand Ethiopian chickpea Mesorhizobium genetic resources for better symbiotic nitrogen fixation in chickpea. Moreover, it allows to supporting research efforts to select efficient rhizobial inoculants in nutrient management for increasing the production and productivity of chickpea as well as maintaining soil health and to solve the future problems.

Authors: B I Odo
Published: February 2022

The study was carried out to evaluate the effects of garlic and ginger (as feed additives) on growth performance of finisher boiler birds. A total of thirty two 4-week old birds used for the experiment were randomly assigned to four treatment groups in a complete randomized design (CRD). Each group was further subdivided into two replicates. Four experimental diets were formulated such that diet 1(T1) which served as control contained neither garlic nor ginger. Diets 2 (T2) and 3 (T3) contained 0.25% of garlic and 0.25% ginger respectively, while diet 4 (T4) contained a mixture of both garlic and ginger at equal proportion (0.25% each). Parameters evaluated included weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio (FCR). Results of the experiment which lasted for 35 days showed that birds fed supplemented diets had significantly higher (P<0.05) body weight and superior FCR than those fed unsupplemented diet. However, there was no significant difference(P>0.05) in feed consumption of the birds in the different treatments. The findings of the study suggest that garlic and ginger can serve as good feed additives in the diets of finisher boilers.

Published: February 2022

Recent technological advancements have had a drastic impact on the way individuals communicate. Many Research Findings suggest that technology has a negative effect on both the quality and quantity of face-to-face communication. Despite individuals’ awareness of the decrease of face-to-face communication as a result of technology, more than 62% of individuals observed on University campuses continue to use mobile devices in the presence of all. In response to the overwhelming presence of face time while viewing TV, several families have decided to implement a ban on video games, computers or smart phones.  Due to the rapid expansion of technology, many individuals fear that people may be too immersed in the digital world and not present in the real world. People are becoming more reliant on communicating with friends and family through mobile phones and are neglecting to engage personally, uninhibited by phones and devices, in the presence of others. A majority of individuals felt the quality of their conversations degraded in the presence of devices, and many individuals were bothered when friends or family used technical devices while spending time together. Communication and collaboration play a big role in digital transformation.

Published: February 2022

Arabic language and national slangs are really in danger since they ae starting to fade lately due to the globalization era that we are facing nowadays; Englishhas become the most dominating language in the Middle East since it becomes the lingua franca of education, media and commerce particularly in the gulf region. Unfortunately the misconception of not using national slangs in daily live conversations is very noticeable due to the new western educational systems and media outlets. Preserving national slangs is very crucial and important to protect our language from vanishing by using mobile technology to teach the indigenous people their national slangs and even those who are expatriates who wish to learn a certain national slang through mobile learning. The main purpose of this paper is to demonstrate a new free educational application called Bahraini slang dictionary based on Bahraini slang only, BSD comes with two languages (Arabic and English) in addition to audio pronunciation.

Embora o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) tenha implementado avanços na visibilidade desse grupo marginalizado, nota-se que existem diversas especificidades e demandas referentes à população LGBTQ+ que são perpetuadas não só pelo preconceito, mas também pela deficiência crônica advinda de currículos não plurais nas graduações dos cursos de saúde. Assim, é fundamental propor incentivos à essa diversidade de sexualidade e gênero na assistência médica. Relato: O “Proud by Nature - I Fórum de Saúde LGBTQ+”, foi um evento realizado totalmente de forma online, sendo uma ação pensada principalmente para profissionais e estudantes das diversas área da saúde a fim de suscitar o debate de uma pauta tão importante e negligenciada que é a saúde dessa comunidade, abordando temas como: saúde sexual, prevenção de ISTs, atendimento médico humanizado, linguagem inclusiva e saúde mental. Discussão: Diante do exposto, percebe-se que é fundamental que os cursos e especializações de saúde sejam mobilizados na temática LGBTQ+. Quase 70% dos participantes nunca tinha entrado em contato com a temática LGBTQ+ antes do Proud by Nature e a maioria se auto avaliou com conhecimento insuficiente para atender as demandas da população LGBTQ+. Após o evento, todos os participantes avaliaram positivamente o aprendizado durante as palestras, mostrando uma carência desta temática principalmente na graduação e deixando claro como eventos como esse podem ser benéficos para a área da saúde. Conclusão: Os objetivos propostos pelo evento foram cumpridos. Ainda, demonstra-se que as instituições de ensino superior de medicina e suas entidades têm um papel transformador na contribuição não só com a comunidade acadêmica, mas também com o público exterior, espalhando conhecimento em conteúdos muitas vezes velados, como é o caso da saúde LGBTQ+.

Introdução: É notório que as atividades físicas apresentam inúmeros benefícios para a saúde dos indivíduos, inclusive para o sistema imune. Contudo, existem importantes particularidades da prática em questão no que tange à contaminação por COVID-19, visto que o exercício físico mal orientado e/ou a sobrecarga dele podem ser prejudiciais ao bem-estar dos indivíduos, afetando negativamente a imunidade e a integridade da saúde, principalmente no período pós-infecção. Nesse sentido, o atual estudo objetiva relatar o evento “As consequências da COVID-19 para a prática esportiva da população”, que visou transmitir informação e incentivar a reflexão pela sociedade, em especial os estudantes e os praticantes de atividades físicas. Relato: As palestras ocorreram via Google Meet®, contando com a presença de dois médicos, sendo um especialista em Medicina da Família e Comunidade e o outro em Medicina Esportiva. Os palestrantes discorreram sobre o assunto e elucidaram as dúvidas relatadas pelos participantes, as quais foram advindas de um questionário aberto no momento da inscrição e do chat durante a realização das palestras. Para avaliação da atividade realizada, foram feitas perguntas pessoais e temáticas no formulário de inscrição e de checkout. Discussão: A discussão proposta foi considerada de grande valor pelos ouvintes. De um lado, foi esclarecido que, mesmo em tempos de pandemia, é recomendado que as pessoas realizem exercícios regularmente, em intensidade moderada. Por outro lado, certos cuidados são necessários em relação ao indivíduo que adquiriu COVID-19, uma vez que seu condicionamento físico pode ter sido drasticamente reduzido. Conclusão: Os conhecimentos disseminados pelos palestrantes referentes ao exercício físico associado à COVID-19 propiciaram a reflexão dos ouvintes no que concerne às práticas esportivas saudáveis e possibilitaram que estes se tornassem fontes de multiplicação de informações confiáveis, apoiadas no embasamento científico compartilhado por profissionais aptos a discorrerem acerca da temática.

The DiTenun application is an intelligent device for producing Indonesian weaving motifs which was built in 2016 entitled "Intelligent Device for Producing Indonesian Weaving Motifs". Seeing the existence of problems in the DiTenun application where performance becomes less good when the number of users increases, it is carried out to perform performance testing with Load Test levels in virtual user numbers. The server used in the DiTenun application is a server from the DEL Institute of Technology, so that the development of the DiTenun application comes from the IT DEL server. For now, the DiTenun application uses the application of the API as a means and process of development and development carried out by the developer. Therefore, in this study, API testing will be carried out on the DiTenun application by measuring the level of performance usingJMeter to do the Performance test and measuring the level of the number of virtual users interacting with the system simultaneously using the Load Test. The researcher will also measure the baseline of the DiTenun application web service from the API response time based on the data load being called. After the analysis, based on the performance testing performed on the API using the Load Testing method, it was found that the performance of most of the APIs decreased with the increase in the number of users accessing, although no errors were found in the tests carried out. As for the results of the baseline web service measurement, the researcher obtained the results of the response time which can be used as a reference for an API that will be run in a system on the server that has been used by the researcher. The result could be used by DiTenun to improve the performance of DiTenun.
Retórica del cuerpo en Santa Bárbara de Baltasar Vargas de Figueroa
Authors: Zambrano Velasco Paola , Andrade Vidal Valentina , Vallejo Mosquera Alberto
Published: February 2022

La vivencia del cuerpo, entendida como una experiencia cultural, varía de acuerdo a la construcción histórica, política, social y religiosa a la que cada individuo se vea expuesto. Este escrito tiene como propósito comprender la relevancia de las representaciones visuales sobre la retórica corporal y sensorial que construyó la Iglesia durante la época colonial en el Nuevo Reino de Granada (Colombia). Partiendo del contraste de una pintura del martirio santoral, la “Muerte de Santa Bárbara” de Baltasar Vargas de Figueroa, analizada iconológicamente aplicando el método de Panofsky, se pretende evidenciar que este discurso es antecedente de algunas praxis corporales de la actualidad, demostrando así, que el cuerpo es una continua construcción social.

Política de calidad en salud: requisitos de habilitación y su efecto en la situación financiera de una IPS en Cali, 2018
Authors: López Mallama Oscar Marino
Published: February 2022

La situación del Sistema General de Seguridad Social en Salud (SGSSS) se enmarca dentro del Plan Obligatorio de Salud, que define las prestaciones a las cuales se tiene acceso y cómo el sistema de salud ha contribuido al mejoramiento del ingreso de los más pobres, teniendo en cuenta las inequidades que provienen de la ausencia de cobertura universal, de las diferencias en los planes de salud y en el gasto del sistema según ingresos de la población. 

La realización de este estudio pretendió ampliar el conocimiento respecto a la política de intermediación que se encuentra inmersa en el sistema de seguridad social en salud en Colombia, ejercida por parte de las empresas responsables de pago, como los cambios en los requisitos de habilitación influyen y modifican en la estructura de costos de los prestadores de servicios de salud y cómo desde la definición de los cambios normativos, el gobierno no contempla una regulación tarifaria de los servicios de salud.  

Esta investigación se realizó tomando como base la información aportada por la IPS de mediana complejidad de ayudas diagnósticas de la ciudad de Cali y, en términos generales, presenta un balance de algunos procesos claves y resultados del Sistema General de Seguridad Social en Salud (SGSSS) en Colombia. Para ello se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática de literatura publicada en revistas indexadas con valoración de la calidad de la evidencia y literatura gris.

Propuesta de intervención para manipulación manual de cargas en los puntos de atención de una empresa del sector logístico de Santiago de Cali, Colombia
Authors: Montes Rivera Juliana , Mateus Cruz Danna Carolina
Published: February 2022

A pesar de que la tecnología ha desarrollado herramientas especializadas para disminuir la carga física de trabajo, algunas actividades todavía requieren del uso de la fuerza humana (Norma OHSAS- 18001). Por ello es necesario conocer la actividad de los operadores logísticos para realizar una propuesta de intervención para el proceso de manipulación manual de cargas en los puntos de atención en una empresa del sector logístico en Santiago de Cali.

Este estudio es de tipo descriptivo y transversal y fue desarrollado con 20 personas que realizan el proceso de manipulación manual de carga, a quienes se les aplicó el Método OWAS (Ovako Working Analysis System), el cuestionario Nórdico y un análisis de riesgo por oficio.

El 75% de la población está expuesta a la categoría de riesgo 4; el nivel de riesgo causado por esta postura tiene efectos sumamente dañinos sobre el sistema músculo-esquelético. El 5% en categoría de riesgo 2, tiene una postura con posibilidad de causar daño al sistema músculo-esquelético, y finalmente se encontró que el 20% en categoría de riesgo 3, tiene una postura con efectos dañinos sobre el sistema músculo-esquelético. El 60% de la población ha estado incapacitado en los últimos doce meses y el 35% de las personas ha tenido que reducir sus actividades en los últimos 12 meses a causa de los problemas lumbares.

El análisis de las condiciones en las que los operadores logísticos ejercen su labor, evidencia la necesidad de generar cambios en el proceso de manipulación manual de cargas que incidan en la mejora de las condiciones, de salud y seguridad en el trabajo.
