Authors: Hoàng Việt Hải
Published: December 2023

Sửa chữa và tăng cường kết cấu mặt cầu bê tông cốt thép đang là đối tượng của nhiều nghiên cứu, tuy nhiên hiện nay chưa có nhiều nghiên cứu về sửa chữa kết cấu này bằng vật liệu bê tông cường độ siêu cao (UHPC). Bài báo trình bày kết quả nghiên cứu thực nghiệm ứng xử chịu uốn của 03 mẫu bản: 01 mẫu bản bê tông cốt thép (BTCT), 02 mẫu cùng chiều cao với mẫu BTCT có thay thế 03 cm lớp bê tông bảo vệ bằng lớp UHPC neo liên kết hoặc không với bản bê tông hiện hữu. Kết quả thí nghiệm uốn 04 điểm cho thấy việc tăng cường UHPC ở lớp phủ bê tông bề mặt sẽ tăng độ võng tới hạn lên 133%, mô men uốn phá hoại so với mẫu đối chứng lên 31,4% đồng thời làm thay đổi đặc điểm phá hoại của mẫu. Đối với mẫu không có liên hết với bản bê tông hiện hữu, mẫu bị phá hoại với mô men uốn nhỏ hơn và xuất hiện hiện tượng bong tách 02 lớp này. Nghiên cứu này đã mở ra một hướng nghiên cứu mới và tiềm năng cho việc cải thiện và gia tăng tuổi thọ của cầu bê tông cốt thép sử dụng UHPC

Objetivo: Evaluar la precisión, efectividad y seguridad en la identificación y lesión del núcleo subtalámico utilizando una nueva estrategia quirúrgica, guiada por imágenes y registro eléctrico cerebral profundo multiunitario. Se le prestó especial atención a la dilatación ventricular y la atrofia cerebral en relación con la trayectoria del electrodo y la precisión de la localización del blanco quirúrgico.
Método: Se realizó un estudio prospectivo para la identificación y lesión del núcleo subtalámico en 49 cirugías realizadas al mismo número de pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson. El método de localización del blanco quirúrgico se basó en imágenes de tomografía computarizada estereotáctica, registro eléctrico cerebral profundo multiunitario con semimicroelectrodo y micro-estimulación eléctrica. Se modificó la trayectoria parasagital recomendada para este tipo de procedimiento que se encuentra entre 0 y 15 grados, a un valor igual o mayor de 20 grados en el primer trayecto de registro, con el objetivo de evitar el ventrículo lateral, los vasos sanguíneos y los surcos cerebrales. Las trayectorias de los electrodos se analizaron en las imágenes postoperatorias de resonancia magnética de cráneo. Se utilizaron métodos estadísticos para evaluar la efectividad del procedimiento para la localización y lesión del blanco quirúrgico.
Resultados: La actividad eléctrica del núcleo subtalámico fue identificada en el primer trayecto de registro cerebral multiunitario en el 83,7% de los procedimientos. El número promedio de trayectorias por procedimiento fue de 5 y los trayectos necesarios para la lesión del núcleo subtalámico fueron 2. La media del ángulo parasagital en el primer trayecto fue de 21,72 grados, con un mínimo de 20 grados y un máximo de 27,5.
Conclusiones: El método de localización anatómica y electrofisiológica utilizado, siguiendo un ángulo parasagital igual o mayor de 20 grados, resulta efectivo y quirúrgicamente seguro para identificar el núcleo subtalámico y realizar la lesión del mismo en los pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson,evitando así el sistema ventricular, los vasos sanguíneos y los surcos cerebrales.

BETWEEN MOTHER FIXATION AND COLONIAL ATTRACTION: DERACINATION, ILL-FATED MIGRATION, AND REDEMPTION IN KEN BUGUL’S THE ABANDONED BAOBAB
Authors: ASAAH Augustine
Published: December 2023

The Abandoned Baobab, Ken Bugul’s brutally sincere autofiction, is the prototypal model of African postcolonial, feminist, and psychological narrative built around the post-traumatic stress disorder, self-flagellation, and “excesses” of a speaking female/colonial subject in desperate need of love. The paper analyzes the protagonist’s alienation, identity crises, and ill-starred sojourn in Europe against the backdrop of maternal attachment and absorption of colonial codes. The study is eclectically anchored on Hendrika C. Freud’s reconstruction of the Electra complex and postcolonial theory. Its major finding is that notwithstanding the protagonist’s anguish at maternal abandonment and her subsequent colonial assimilation, she still employs repressed norms and values associated with the mother/the land/Africa to berate (neo-)colonialists, Westerners, and herself. The paper concludes that the protagonist-narrator redeems herself somehow through the willful adoption of the appellation Ken Bugul, the admission of her errors, and the return to the motherland.

Published: December 2023

Built-In Self-Test (BIST) is a technique that allows a set up to check itself for any error on its own. BIST is a screening mechanism that places the testing functions physically with the circuit applications where system reliability is predominant, and “failure is not an option.” The decision to execute a critical mission must be made only if the complete system is running without any error. BIST structures generate pseudo random combinations and output results for an exclusive circuit under test are compared. BIST can be implemented on entire designs, design blocks or structures within design blocks. Memory is a complex architecture (fabrication wise) and used in a large number of applications. BIST is basically used to help in the testing of memory with the help of a few extra pins. In fact, while testing a memory using BIST, applying a simple clock signal along with a few pins helps test the entire memory IC. The proposed BIST enabled RAM is designed using Verilog

Published: December 2023

Using Verilog HDL language to research a subway automatic ticket booking system. The design of this subway ticketing system takes convenience, quickness and simplicity as the core, and takes saving time for passengers. It completes the main process of buying subway tickets for passengers. Firstly, this project studies the development of subway ticketing system at home and abroad, and then studies the basic components of subway ticketing system. The paper also simulates the ticket selection module, change processing module and display interface module on Xilinx Vivado. In the Verilog design, finite state machines (FSMs) are employed to model the various states of the ticket booking process. These FSMs ensure smooth transitions between states, enabling the system to handle scenarios such as ticket availability checks, payment processing, and generating tickets. Additionally, the communication interface is responsible for securely transmitting booking information to the subway network, ensuring seamless integration with the overall subway infrastructure.

Published: December 2023

The Karatsuba multiplier is a widely-used algorithm that aims to efficiently multiply large numbers. Traditional multiplication algorithms have a time complexity of O(n^2), where n represents the number of digits in the input numbers. In contrast, the Karatsuba multiplier achieves a faster multiplication process by recursively splitting the numbers into smaller parts and performing intermediate multiplications using only three multiplications instead of four. This Modified architecture saves the 14.9% computation time and it consumes 45.5% less slices than existing Karatsuba multiplier. The proposed architecture has been simulated and synthesized by Xilinx vivado design suite for Spartan & Vertex device family. The new architecture is simple & easy. It emphasizes the significance of the Karatsuba multiplier in improving computational efficiency and highlights its implementation in different domains to accelerate large-scale multiplication tasks. Proposed hardware was implemented on different FPGA devices for various operand sizes, and performance parameters were determined. Comparing to state-of-theart works, the proposed method resulted in a lower combinational delay and area-delay product indicating the efficiency of design. In this we use two 32 bit inputs and produced the 64 bit as the output. In Spartan3E FPGA device family, Modified Karatsuba Algorithm (MKA) is 26.5% faster than Karatsuba Algorithm (KA).It consumes 61.7% less slices than existing KA based Convolution
“Na Dor e no Sangue”: A Ambiguidade na Experiência do Abortamento Provocado
Authors: Bento Marília Netz , Stenzel Lucia Marques
Published: December 2023

O debate acerca da descriminalização da interrupção voluntária da gravidez vem ganhando força na América Latina. Os principais argumentos favoráveis à legalização giram em torno das questões de saúde e liberdade das mulheres. Este estudo teve como objetivo compreender a experiência de abortamento provocado, a partir do relato de mulheres que interromperam a gestação. Trata-se de um estudo de natureza qualitativa e interpretativa, cuja coleta de dados se deu por meio de entrevistas individuais abertas e a análise, a partir da proposta empírico-fenomenológica. Participaram 7 mulheres de entre 25 e 56 anos, que relataram 11 abortamentos (variando de um a três). Os resultados mostram que a experiência evidencia a ambiguidade da condição humana entre as participantes, evidenciada pela criminalização do aborto, principalmente no que se refere à liberdade de escolha à solidão imposta pela clandestinidade e à condição simbólica restritiva da maternidade. Ao que parece, o abortamento não foi necessariamente traumático e causador de culpa e de arrependimento, mas foi relacionado a sentimentos negativos em virtude da criminalização e do julgamento moral e social. Nesse sentido, cabe aos(às) profissionais atuantes na área da saúde mental ações que visem a redução destes impactos negativos que perpetuam o sofrimento e encarnam “na dor e no sangue” a produção subjetiva em torno da maternidade e do desejo pela interrupção da gestação.

Introduction: Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) is a set of clinical manifestations resulting from the chronic dysfunction of the peripheral venous system that affects the lower limbs. There is a growing search for complementary therapies, such as Medicinal Biomagnetism (MB), which acts in a non-invasive, painless, low-cost and with rare contraindications, aiming to improve quality of life. MB uses Static Magnetic Fields (SMF) to restore bioenergetic balance and promote health, including CVI. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of SMF application, through the MB Lower Limb Blood Flow Protocol (LLBFP), on pain resulting from vascular alterations of the lower limbs. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional clinical experimental study in three female participants with vascular alterations in the lower limbs who underwent the LLBFP Protocol. Pain, edema and quality of life complaints were assessed using the Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study (VEINES), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and perimeter measurements questionnaires, before and after the application of the LLBFP. Results: After treatment with the LLBFP Protocol, there was a trend towards the analgesic effect and reduction of edema, as well as improvement in the aspects related to the symptoms of heavy, restless, tired legs, and tingling, burning and itching, promoting improvement in quality of life. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the application of the MB LLBFP Protocol has the potential to reduce the subjective perception of pain and edema in lower limbs with vascular alterations. The magnets used in the LLBFP may promote an anti-inflammatory response, contributing to the improvement of quality of life.

Institutional Ethnography as Critical Policy Analysis
Authors: McGibbon Elizabeth , Fierlbeck Katherine , Ajadi Tari
Published: December 2023

The use of the term health equity (HE) has increased dramatically in the past decade in Canada and globally. However, there is limited evidence that explosive growth in the use of the term is reflected in HE policy outcomes. In this paper we argue that the methodology of institutional ethnography (IE) is useful in understanding how policy outcomes (including, notably, policy inaction) are constructed. Applying IE methodology in critical policy analysis (CPA), we analyze how the discursive utilization of HE neutralizes effective policy change. The point of our analytical approach is to explain how three complex areas of investigation (HE, IE, CPA) may be usefully integrated to enhance policy action to tackle the structural, root causes of health inequities. We demonstrate how an integration of IE in CPA provides a deeper understanding of how the political forces shaping policy outcomes manifest themselves in discursive relationships and textually mediated sites of power.
Disability Research Principles
Authors: Veitch Alanna , Rinaldi Jen
Published: December 2023

This paper presents lessons learned from a project titled Advocates Assembly: Disability Research from the Ground Up. Hosted by Ontario Tech University’s Institute for Disability and Rehabilitation Research (IDRR), the series featured representatives from disability-led activist and rights advocacy groups and disability-focused healthcare and social services providers. Across the series, speakers collectively articulated a number of key principles that ground disability research in community. In this paper the authors organize and analyze themes from these events, to show how community-based research principles have the power to confront and transform institutionally entrenched forms of disability research. Those principles are as follows: researchers should seek out contextually specific knowledge, researchers should unsettle their role as experts, researchers should acknowledge and enact their accountability, and researchers should commit to sustainable and transformational change, which challenges the temporal parameters to projects.

Re pensando el Radicalismo, los Territorios Nacionales y el petróleo, 1916-1930
Authors: Favaro Orietta
Published: December 2023

El objetivo de la presentación es acercar reflexiones sobre la Unión Cívica Radical (UCR) y la labor desplegada en materia de exploración y explotación de petróleo en territorios nacionales de la Patagonia argentina: Neuquén y Chubut. La propuesta apunta a re pensar las razones por las cuales la fuerza política prioriza la intervención en los Territorios Nacionales, en materia de recursos, en el período 1916-1930. Estos espacios formaban parte de la preocupación del radicalismo en tanto parte integrante de la instancia central y contaban con bienes estratégicos importantes para reducir importaciones en el contexto de la guerra; asimismo, apuntaba a desarrollar la incipiente industria atendiendo a las necesidades de la población; se ampliaría su base social de apoyo en el marco del Estado universalizado. La tesis consiste en pensar, por un lado, que el Estado intervenía en espacios de su directa dependenciaporque sus sociedades estaban en formación, de modo tal que no se producirían conflictos políticos, como sucedían con las provincias y, por otro, permitiría ver la situación de esas áreas, evaluando la posibilidad de convertirlos en provincias. Paraello se revisará la historiografía existente, incorporando fuentes documentales regionales y nacionales a las que se tuvo acceso,con el propósito de aportar otros problemas, en clave local, a la historia nacional.

The impact of ENSO and NAO initial conditions and anomalies on the modeled response to Pinatubo-sized volcanic forcing
Authors: Weierbach Helen , LeGrande Allegra N. , Tsigaridis Kostas
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Strong, strato-volcanic eruptions are a substantial, intermittent source of natural climate variability. Initial atmospheric and oceanic conditions, such as El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), also naturally impact climate on interannual timescales. We examine how initial conditions of ENSO and NAO contribute to the evolution of climate in the period following a Pinatubo-type eruption using a large (81-member) ensemble of model simulations in GISS model E2.1-G. Simulations are initialized from sampled conditions of ENSO and NAO using the protocol of the coordinated CMIP6 Volcanic Model Intercomparison Project (VolMIP) – where aerosols are forced with respect to time, latitude, and height. We analyze paired anomalous variations (perturbed – control) to understand changes in global and regional climate responses under positive, negative, and neutral ENSO and NAO conditions. In particular, we find that for paired anomalies there is a high probability of strong (∼1.5 ∘C) warming of northern Eurasia surface air temperature in the first winter after the volcanic eruption for negative NAO ensembles coincident with decreased lower stratospheric temperature at the poles, decreased geopotential height, and strengthening of the stratospheric polar vortex. Climate anomalies (relative to average conditions across the control period), however, show no mean warming and suggest that the strength of this response is impacted by conditions present in the selected period of the control run. Again using paired anomalies, we also observe that under both +ENSO and −ENSO ensembles sea surface temperature decreases in the first post-eruptive boreal winter coinciding with surface cooling from volcanic aerosols. Neutral ENSO ensembles, on the other hand, show variability in their response with no clear trend in post-eruptive warming or cooling. In general, paired anomalies from unperturbed simulations give insight into the evolution of the climate response to volcanic forcing; however, when compared with anomalies from climatological conditions, it is clear that paired anomalies are significantly affected by sampled initial conditions occurring at the time of the volcanic eruption.
Strength of TROPOMI satellite observations in retrieving hourly resolved sources of volcanic sulfur dioxide by inverse modeling
Authors: Behera Abhinna K. , Boichu Marie , Thieuleux François , Henriot Nicolas , Hioki Souichiro
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Volcanic eruptions release sulfur dioxide (SO2), impacting air quality, ecosystems, and aviation. To comprehensively assess these effects, high-temporal-resolution SO2 emission data is crucial. In this study, we use an inverse modeling procedure, assimilating SO2 column measurements from TROPOMI and OMPS low-Earth orbit satellites into an Eulerian chemistry-transport model. This procedure allows us to derive precise hourly SO2 mass flux and injection heights. TROPOMI, with its exceptional spatial resolution, excels at detecting short-lived, concentrated SO2 plumes near the source shortly before satellite overpasses. This high-resolution data enables more robust identification and precise characterization of strong SO2 emissions, surpassing the capabilities of lower-resolution OMPS measurements, which may overlook or underestimate vigorous degassing periods. Notably, this high-resolution data also facilitates the detection of pre-eruptive SO2 emissions. Cloud cover can obscure SO2 plumes from satellite observations, but our inverse modeling procedure effectively distinguishes and tracks them by assimilating successive satellite overpass data. Furthermore, this procedure proves less susceptible to ash emissions compared to geostationary Himawari-8/AHI observations. We apply our methodology to study the 2018 Ambrym eruption, a former major volcanic SO2 emitter. This eruption marked the end of long-lived lava lake activity and initiated a submarine eruption through a massive magma intrusion. Our detailed SO2 flux time series unveils the evolution of the eruption and identifies distinct SO2 sources, including lava flows and shallow magma intrusions. In summary, the assimilation of TROPOMI data into inverse modeling procedures offers significant potential for enhancing our understanding of magma transport and environmental impacts during volcanic eruptions.
Number and size-controlled rainfall regimes in the Netherlands: physical reality or statistical mirage?
Authors: Schleiss Marc
Published: December 2023

Abstract. An experimental study aimed at identifying special rainfall regimes with the help of co-located disdrometers is performed. Eight potentially special events (i.e., 4 number-controlled events and 4 size-controlled events) are identified and examined. However, the cross-check with additional, independent radar measurements reveals no clear evidence of such regimes. The research underscores the difficulty in confirming seemingly straightforward questions about rainfall patterns and dynamics that have been theorized in the literature for several decades. It also questions the reliability of previous claims and serves as a reminder to approach such problems with more caution, emphasizing the need for rigorous uncertainty analysis and multiple cross-checks between sensors to avoid misinterpretation.
Applicability of physics-based and machine-learning-based algorithms of geostationary satellite in retrieving the diurnal cycle of cloud base height
Authors: Wang Mengyuan , Min Min , Li Jun , Lin Han , Liang Yongen , Chen Binlong , Yao Zhigang , Xu Na , Zhang Miao
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Four distinct retrieval algorithms, comprising two physics-based and two machine-learning (ML) approaches, have been developed to retrieve cloud base height (CBH) and its diurnal cycle from Himawari-8 geostationary satellite observations. Validations have been conducted using the joint CloudSat/CALIOP (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization) CBH products in 2017, ensuring independent assessments. Results show that the two ML-based algorithms exhibit markedly superior performance (with a correlation coefficient of R > 0.91 and an absolute bias of approximately 0.8 km) compared to the two physics-based algorithms. However, validations based on CBH data from the ground-based lidar at the Lijiang station in Yunnan province and the cloud radar at the Nanjiao station in Beijing, China, explicitly present contradictory outcomes (R < 0.60). An identifiable issue arises with significant underestimations in the retrieved CBH by both ML-based algorithms, leading to an inability to capture the diurnal cycle characteristics of CBH. The strong consistence observed between CBH derived from ML-based algorithms and the spaceborne active sensor may be attributed to utilizing the same dataset for training and validation, sourced from the CloudSat/CALIOP products. In contrast, the CBH derived from the optimal physics-based algorithm demonstrates the good agreement in diurnal variations of CBH with ground-based lidar/cloud radar observations during the daytime (with an R value of approximately 0.7). Therefore, the findings in this investigation from ground-based observations advocate for the more reliable and adaptable nature of physics-based algorithms in retrieving CBH from geostationary satellite measurements. Nevertheless, under ideal conditions, with an ample dataset of spaceborne cloud profiling radar observations encompassing the entire day for training purposes, the ML-based algorithms may hold promise in still delivering accurate CBH outputs.
North Pacific Subtropical Mode Water Volume and Density Anomalous Decrease in a Recent Stable Kuroshio Extension Period from Argo Observations
Authors: Sheng Jing , Liu Cong , Gu Yanzhen , Li Peiliang , Zhai Fangguo , Zhou Ning
Published: December 2023

Abstract. North Pacific subtropical mode water (NPSTMW) is formed as the low stratification water mass in the wintertime mixed layer south of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). In a recent period of 2018–2021, the KE jet is in a persisting stable dynamic state. But based on analysis of Argo observation, the mean volume of NPSTMW in ventilation region drop anomalously by ~21 % during 2018–2021 relative to 2012–2015 when the KE jet is likewise stable. Moreover, the NPSTMW volume in denser density range (approximately σθ >25.2 kg m-3) starts to decrease but the volume of lighter density of the NPSTMW increases since 2018. The decreasing of the NPSTMW subduction and formation rate are associated with anomalously shallow wintertime mixed layer depth (MLD) and weak heat loss in the NPSTMW formation region. The interannual variations of the NPSTMW subduction and formation reflect the variability of the overlying atmosphere which is correlated with Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO) shift in 2018–2021. When the PDO shifts from its positive to a negative phase in analysis period, the effects of local wind stress anomalies seem to play an evident role in driving the variability of NPSTMW on interannual time scales. The MLD and heat loss change during the cold season in 2018–2021 are strongly coupled with the poleward shift of the westerlies-which cause the weaker wintertime wind and the easterly wind anomalies over the NPSTMW formation region. The declines of heat loss and southward Ekman transport, owing to the wind stress anomalies, further prohibit the upper-ocean convection and mixed layer deepening and cooling. Additionally, the insufficient development of wintertime MLD in 2018–2021 may also be correlated with the significantly intensified preconditioning of near surface stratification (<150 m depth) due to the persisting near surface warming.

Abstract. Snow significantly impacts the seasonal growth of Arctic sea ice due to its thermally insulating properties. Various measurements and parameterizations of thermal properties exist, but an assessment of the entire seasonal evolution of thermal conductivity and snow resistance is hitherto lacking. Using the comprehensive snow dataset from the Multidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition, we have evaluated for the first time the seasonal evolution of the snow's and denser snow-ice interface layers' thermal conductivity above different ice ages (refrozen leads, first-year ice, and second-year ice) and topographic features (ridges). Our dataset has a density range of snow and ice between 50 and 900 kg m−3, and corresponding anisotropy measurements, meaning we can test the current parameterizations of thermal conductivity for this density range. Combining different measurement parameterizations and assessing the robustness against spatial heterogeneity, we found the average thermal conductivity of snow (<550 kg m−3) on sea ice remains approximately constant (0.26 ± 0.05 WK-1m-1) over time irrespective of underlying ice type, with substantial spatial and vertical variability. Due to this consistency, we can state that the thermal resistance is mainly influenced by snow height, resulting in a 2.7 times higher average thermal resistance on ridges (1.42 m2 K W−1) compared to first-year level ice (0.51 m2 K W−1). Our findings explain how the scatter of thermal conductivity values directly results from structural properties. Now, the only step is to find a quick method to measure snow anisotropy in the field. Suggestions to do this are listed in the discussion.
It Takes Another Kind of Village: How Older Husbands in Rural Spanish Communities Experience Caregiving
Authors: Chirinos Carlos
Published: December 2023

This article explores how older husbands’ caregiving experiences are interwoven with the social representation of ‘the village,’ understood herein as an intimate, local community that actively contributes to long-term care on a daily basis. The concepts of belonging and doing kinship form the analytical basis for illuminating this interaction between care from husbands and daily community care. I use the social representation of the imagined community both as the axis for articulating the singular experiences of care, and the construct of a village that values its collective history, local rituals, natural environment, and ordinary routines. Study data are based on ethnographic observations of the daily long-term care trajectories of five married couples in two villages and one small town in the rural Spanish Mediterranean.
Unmasking deceptive journals in education sciences: a study on prevalence, characteristics and visibility
Authors: Comas-Forgas Rubén , Álvarez-García Olaya , Cerdà-Navarro Antoni
Published: December 2023

This study explores the landscape of predatory journals in education sciences by examining their prevalence, publishers, countries of origin, launch years, malpractices, and internet search metrics, focusing on journals indexed in Cabell's Predatory Reports (n=443). Education science journals make up 2.75% of the total predatory journals listed in the database, primarily scattered across small-scale publishers. The USA, Nigeria, and India emerge as major hubs and results reveal a rapid growth in predatory journals between 2011-2015, followed by slower proliferation. Publication and peer review process violations are the most common malpractices. Internet search metrics indicate increased organic traffic to predatory journal websites from 2017 to 2021 raising concerns about their potential impact on the academic publishing panorama. The findings underscore the need for continued efforts to raise awareness, promote ethical publishing practices, and protect academic integrity in education sciences publications.

Published: December 2023

A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of Iron supplementary ball on haemoglobin level among adolescent girls with nutritional deficiency anemia at selected Nursing colleges, Thanjavur. An experimental research design was used for this study. Samples were selected by using simple random (lottery method) sampling technique. The investigator assessed the haemoglobin level by using Sahli’s method in both experimental and control group. Then from day 2 to day 31 Iron supplementary ball intervention was given to the experimental group sample after breakfast under the supervision of the researcher for a period of 30 days. After 30 days the investigator assessed the posttest level of haemoglobin in both groups. The mean value 10.27 with standard deviation 1.91 in experimental group was higher than the mean value 9.49 with standard deviation 1.38 in control group. The ‘t’ test calculated Value 10.933 was higher than the Table Value 2.05 (CV> TV) which is significant at 0.05 level. The statistical analysis reveals that there was a significant differences in posttest levels of haemoglobin among adolescent in experimental group in comparison with control group. So the given Iron supplementary ball was effective in proving haemoglobin level among the adolescent girls.

Published: December 2023

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between internet addiction and psychosocial issues among college students in selected colleges. To assess this correlation, the researchers employed two rating scales, one for measuring the level of internet addiction and another for assessing the level of psychosocial well-being. These tools were validated by experts in the fields of nursing and psychiatry, with a high reliability score of r=0.9, determined using suitable formulas. The research began with a pilot study involving 10 participants, and the collected data were subjected to both descriptive and inferential statistical analyses, which were then interpreted based on the study's objectives and hypotheses. The majority of the sample (61.43%) fell within the age group of 21-22 years, while the remaining participants were distributed as follows: 17.14% in the 18-20 age group and 21.43% above 22 years of age. In terms of internet addiction, 60% of the participants exhibited "mild internet addiction," with 25.71% classified as having "moderate internet addiction," and the remaining 14.29% showing "no internet addiction”. Regarding psychosocial problems, 51.43% of the samples had "mild psychosocial problems," while 42.86% displayed "no noticeable psychosocial problems," and the remaining 5.71% exhibited "moderate psychosocial problems.". **Name of colleges not mentioned as a part of maintaining privacy.

Published: December 2023

A simple, rapid and accurate chromatographic method was developed for the quantification of ellagic and gallic acid using UHPLC chromatography. The separation of the compounds was carried out using a Hypersil Gold column (150x4.6) by gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of 0.5% formic acid aqueous solution and methanol, with a detection of the compounds at 278 nm. The obtained results confirm the presence of phenolic compounds in the leaves of some wild fruit species, respectively gallic acid varied between 5.12 (Malus sylvestris) and 82.16 (Rubus fruticosus) mg/100g DW, and ellagic acid had values between 4.28 (Crataegus monogyna) and 936.34 (Fragaria viridis) mg/100g DW. The used protocol proved to be useful for the accurate and rapid identification and quantification of the two phenolic acids.
