Authors: Ayukarningsih Yoke , Mutiara Dinar , Febrianti Astrid
Published: October 2023

Children with balanced nutritional needs and intake will have good nutritional status, and vice versa; inadequate nutritional intake will affect children's growth and development. This study aims to determine the relationship between nutritional status and the development of children age 0-24 months in the Working Areaf the Cimahi Selatan Health Center in a cross-sectional way. Data on nutritional status were measured using a baby scale for body weight and a length board for body length. At the same time, children's development was assessed using the DDST II form, which consisted of four aspects of development: gross motor, fine motor, language, and personal social. There are 30 subjects in this research selected using consecutive sampling techniques. From the results of the study, it was found that disorders of gross motor development (60.00%), language (100.00%), and personal social (100.00%) were dominant in the 12-24 month age group. In comparison, disorders of fine motor development (33.30%) were found to be equally average in each age group. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between aspects of gross motor development (p=0.031), fine motor (p=0.010), language (p=0.045), and personal social (p=0.012) with wasted nutritional status in children 0-24 months in the Cimahi Selatan Health Center Work Area, so it can be concluded that children with wasted nutritional status have a greater risk of experiencing developmental disorders. This result is in line with the theory that inadequate nutritional intake will affect the development process of brain maturity, resulting in a decline in brain function and various delays in child development.

Published: October 2023

Tooth avulsion is different from all other dental injuries due to the extracorporeal situation with varying duration and degree of contamination of the teeth and the patient's systemic conditions. In a heavy-smoker patient, wound healing could be interrupted. Extra-alveolar handling, good replantation, and educating the patient could be the key to successful treatment of tooth avulsion, especially in a heavy smoker. The aim of this study is to discuss an avulsed tooth case that has been successfully treated by replantation in a heavy smoker. A 39-year-old female patient was refered to Siloam Hospital due to a dental trauma injury. The patient was in good general health, but she was a heavy smoker. Intraoral examination revealed that the maxillary left permanent central incisor was avulsed after the patient fell off in her bathroom. Replantation is a treatment of choice in this case. The avulsed tooth was stored in a saline solution. On one visit, root canal treatment was done on the avulsed tooth extra orally soon after the patient was refered to the AE department at Siloam Hospital. The avulsed tooth was replanted and fixed using an Erich arch bar to the previous position by finger pressure. Fix the Erich bar as far as possible to the distal and mesial of the avulsed tooth using circumferential wire in every single tooth. We decided to put the Erich bar from 15 to 25. The following oral hygiene cleaning, dietary instructions, and education to reduce or stop smoking during the healing process were given. Extra-alveolar handling, good replantation, good fixation, and adequate oral hygiene education are the keys to treating a tooth avulsion, even in a heavy smoker.

Published: October 2023

2,3-Epoxypropyl methacrylate (glycidyl methacrylate, GMA) is an organic chemical compound, an ester of methacrylic acid and 2,3-epoxypropan-1-ol. It is a colorless liquid with a fruity odor. It is used as a co-monomer for the production of epoxy polymers, as an adhesion promoter and cross-linking co-monomer in the production of vinyl and acrylic resins. This substance is on the ACSH (The Advisory Committee on Safety and Health at Work) priority list for developing a proposal for an EU limit value. So far, no normative values in the air of the working environment have been defined in Poland in regard of 2,3-epoxypropyl methacrylate. The MAC value of 0,3 mg/m3 and STEL value of 0,6 mg/m3 have been proposed. The basis for calculating the MAC value was the LOAEC value of 3,55 mg/m3 for the irritation of the nasal epithelium in mice (olfactory epithelium metaplasia). Taking into account the carcinogenicity of GMA and its effect on the skin, the following notations have been proposed: “Carc. 1B” – carcinogenic substance of hazard category 1B, “C” – corrosive substance, “A” – skin sensitizing substance, “Ft” – fetotoxic substance, and “Skin” – skin absorption of the substance may be just as important as for inhalation exposure. There is no basis for setting BEI value.

Authors:   Dorota Kondej, Kowalska Joanna
Published: October 2023

2,6-Di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT) is an organic compound belonging to the phenol group and is an odorless, white or yellowish-white crystalline powder. BHT is an antioxidant used in the production of food, animal feed, animal and vegetable oils, paints, petroleum product soaps, synthetic rubbers and plastics, among others. Worker exposure to BHT can occur during the production, processing and use of the chemical. In 2021 the Group of Experts for Chemical Agents of the Interdepartmental Commission for MAC and MAI proposed MAC value of 10 mg/m3 for BHT. The aim of this study was to develop a method for determining BHT in workplace air for occupational exposure assessment within 1/10 ÷ 2 of the proposed MAC value. The method is based on retaining the BHT present in the air on a glass fiber filter and XAD-7 sorbent, leaching the retained substance with a solution of N,N-dimethylformamide in methanol and analyzing the solution by the use of gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection. The smallest concentration of BHT that can be determined under the conditions of air sampling and performing the determination is 0.96 mg/m3 (for an air sample of 60 liters). The method for the determination of BHT is presented in the form of an analytical procedure, which is included in the appendix. This article discusses the problems of occupational safety and health, which are covered by health sciences and environmental engineering.
Enfluran Metoda oznaczania w powietrzu na stanowiskach pracy z zastosowaniem chromatografii gazowej1
Authors:   Małgorzata Kucharska, Wesołowski Wiktor
Published: October 2023

Enflurane is an inhaled general anaesthetic and is a positional isomer of another anaesthetic, namely isoflurane. At room temperature, it is a colourless, transparent liquid with a faint, sweet odour. In occupational exposure, enflurane is often used in a mixture with other inhalation anaesthetics, so symptoms are difficult to attribute to the effects of any one substance. Symptoms such as eye and skin irritation, central nervous system depression, cardiovascular disorders, and liver and kidney damage have been reported in workers exposed to anaesthetic mixtures. The aim of this research work was to develop and validate a method for the determination of enflurane in air at workplaces. This enflurane determination method is based on the adsorption of substance vapours on the ‘Petroleum Charcoal’ activated carbon, extraction with toluene and chromatographic analysis of the resulting solution. The tests used a gas chromatograph coupled with a mass spectrometer (GC-MS) fitted with a capillary polar column ZB-WAXplus (60 m length, 0.25 mm diameter and 0.5 µm stationary phase film thickness). The SIM mass spectrometer readings as a function of enflurane concentration within the tested concentration range (10.0–400 µg/ml) are linear. The analytical method developed enables the determination of enflurane in air at workplaces in the presence of other inhalation anaesthetics. The method is precise and accurate and it meets the requirements of PN-EN 482 for the determination of chemicals. The method developed for the determination of enflurane in air at workplaces has been recorded as an analytical procedure (see Appendix). This article discusses the problems of occupational safety and health, which are covered by health sciences and environmental engineering studies.

Authors: Potluri Ajay S. , Arza Ramón A. , Rullán Pedro J. , Pasqualini Ignacio , Ng Mitchell , Piuzzi Nicolas S.
Published: October 2023

Background:

Technological innovation in orthopaedics is key to advancing patient care. As emerging technologies near maturity, clinicians must be able to objectively assess where and when these technologies can be implemented. Patent databases are an underappreciated resource for quantifying innovation, especially within orthopaedic surgery. This study used a patent database to assess patent activity and relative growth of technologies in musculoskeletal medicine and orthopaedics over a period of 46 years.

Methods:

A total of 121,471 patent records were indexed from Lens.org, a patent database. These patents were grouped into subspecialty clusters and technology clusters using patent codes. Five-year (2014 to 2018), 10-year (2009 to 2018), and 30-year (1989 to 2018) compound annual growth rates were calculated and compared for each cluster.

Results:

Annual patent activity increased from one patent in 1973 to 4,866 patents in 2018. Of the eight subspecialty clusters, the largest number of patents were related to ‘Inflammation’ (n = 63,128; 40.57%). The ‘Elbow’, ‘Shoulder’, and ‘Knee’ clusters experienced increased annual patent activity since 2000. Of the 12 technological clusters, the largest number of patents were related to ‘Drugs’ (n = 55,324; 39.75%). The ‘Custom/patient-specific instrumentation, ‘Computer Modeling’, ‘Robotics’, and ‘Navigation’ clusters saw growth in the average annual patent activity since 2000.

Discussion:

Innovation, as measured by patent activity in musculoskeletal medicine and orthopaedics, has seen notable growth since 1973. The ‘Robotics’ cluster seems poised to experience exponential growth in industry investment and technological developments over the next 5 to 10 years. The ‘Diagnostics’, ‘Computer Modeling’, ‘Navigation’, and ‘Design and Manufacturing’ clusters demonstrate potential for exponential growth in industry investment and technological developments within the next 10 to 20 years.

Authors: Mittal Ashish , Blackburn Amy Z. , Katakam Akhil , Bedair Hany S. , Melnic Christopher M.
Published: October 2023

Introduction:

Two-stage exchange (TSE) is the gold standard for the treatment of chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total joint arthroplasty of the hip and knee in the United States. Failure of treatment can have devastating consequences for the patient, including poor functional outcomes, multiple further surgeries, and increased mortality. Several factors associated with infection recurrence have previously been identified in the literature. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the use of a dual surgical setup was associated with reduced risk of recurrence after TSE for PJI.

Methods:

A retrospective study was conducted between January 2000 and December 2021 to isolate patients who underwent TSE after total joint arthroplasty of the hip and knee. Failure was defined as infection recurrence requiring surgical intervention. Demographic factors (age, sex, body mass index, smoking status, American Society of Anesthesiologists status), preoperative comorbidities (hypertension, cardiac disease, diabetes status, depression diagnosis, pulmonary disease), operating surgeon, single versus dual setup, hospital setting, use of long-term antibiotics postoperatively after TSE, aspiration data, and infecting organism were compared between cohorts using multivariate regression analysis.

Results:

A total of 134 patients were identified who underwent TSE after diagnosis of PJI. The mean follow-up was 67.84 (range, 13 to 236) months. Dual setup (odds ratio, 0.13; confidence interval, 0.02 to 0.52; P = 0.0122) was found to be an independent predictive variable associated with a lower risk of infection recurrence.

Conclusion:

Utilization of a dual surgical setup is a low-cost modifiable risk factor associated with a lower risk of recurrence of after TSE of the hip and knee for PJI.

Published: October 2023

Geriatric odontoid fractures are some of the most common spine injuries in our aging population, and their prevalence is only continuing to increase. Despite several investigational studies, treatment remains controversial and there is limited conclusive evidence regarding the management of odontoid fractures. These injuries typically occur in medically complex and frail geriatric patients with poor bone quality, making their treatment particularly challenging. In this article, we review the evidence for conservative management as well as surgical intervention and discuss various treatment strategies. Given the high morbidity and mortality associated with odontoid fractures in the elderly, thoughtful consideration and an emphasis on patient-centered goals of treatment are critical to maximize function in this vulnerable population.

Entre fenômeno e ficção, presente e futuro no planejamento
Authors: Randolph Rainer
Published: October 2023

O presente texto dá continuidade a investigações sobre diversas temáticas do planejamento público e suas características e modalidades, realizadas nos últimos anos, com o objetivo de contribuir a uma discussão relacionada à importância de perspectivas de tempo e futuro adotadas – implícita ou explicitamente - nos processos de planejamento. Em outro lugar mostrou-se como a diferenciação de diferentes modalidades do planejamento depende, em boa medida, de suas perspectivas em relação a tempo e futuro. Portanto, no atual trabalho o planejamento em si não vai ser o objeto direto da investigação, mas serão estudadas diferentes abordagens sobre tempo e futuro de diferentes áreas de conhecimento das quais se espera resultarem certos “impulsos” ou “inspirações” para se procurar uma compreensão mais abrangente. Ao finalizar esta tarefa, volta-se a uma primeira re-aproximação com o tema do planejamento. Ou seja, não se trata aqui de uma mera “incorporação” ou “apropriação” de outros conceptos, mas de uma reflexão sobre tempo e futuro num contexto (que é o planejamento) onde este contexto precisa ser questionado em si.

The need for reliable automated object detection and classification in the maritime sphere has increased significantly over the last decade. The increased use of unmanned marine vehicles necessitates the development and use of an autonomous object detection and classification systems that utilize onboard cameras and operate reliably, efficiently, and accurately without the need for human intervention. As the autonomous vehicle realm moves further away from active human supervision, the requirements for a detection and classification suite call for a higher level of accuracy in the classification models. This paper presents a comparative study using different classification models on a large maritime vessel image dataset. For this study, additional images were annotated using Roboflow, focusing on the types of subclasses that had the lowest detection performance, a previous work by Brown et al. (1). The present study uses a dataset of over 5,000 images. Using the enhanced set of image annotations, models were created in the cloud using Google Colab using YOLOv5, YOLOv7, and YOLOv8 as well as in AmazonWeb Services using Amazon Rekognition. The models were tuned and run for five runs of 150 epochs each to collect efficiency and performance metrics. Comparison of these metrics from the YOLO models yielded interesting improvements in classification accuracies for the subclasses that previously had lower scores, but at the expense of the overall model accuracy. Furthermore, training time efficiency was improved drastically using the newer YOLO APIs. In contrast, using Amazon Rekognition yielded superior accuracy results across the board, but at the expense of the lowest training efficiency.

Air pollution is now one of the biggest environmental risks, which causes more than 6 million premature deaths each year from heart diseases, stroke, diabetes, respiratory disease, and so on. Protecting humans from the damage which is caused by air pollution is one of the major issues for the global community. The prediction of air pollution can be done by machine learning (ML) algorithms. ML combines statistics and computer science to maximize the prediction power. ML can be also used to predict the air quality index (AQI). The aim of this research is to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to predict air quality from the unseen data set, which includes concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). The proposed system will be implemented in two steps; the first step will focus on data analysis and pre-processing, including filtering, feature extraction, constructing convolutional neural network layers, and optimizing the parameters of each layer, while the second step is used to evaluate its model accuracy. The output is predicted as AQI for the developed CNN model. The developed CNN model achieves a root-mean-square error of 13.4150 and a high accuracy of 86.585%. The overall model is implemented using MATLAB software.

Silenced Dissent in the Russian Orthodox Church
Authors: Zwahlen Regula M. , Zenger Natalija
Published: October 2023

The official support of Russia’s war against Ukraine by the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church has silenced most of the voices of existing dissent. However, before February 2022, there were different reactions from the church to various waves of protest. While the church leadership spoke of a “crisis of the young generation”, individual clergy members showed understanding for the outrage over the state repressions and the lack of prospects perceived by the youth. Under the current circumstances, there is little room for anti-war action by Orthodox clergy and laity, but some are seizing the opportunities left to them.

With the current educational legislation in which the inclusive education has been among the main aim of the compulsory education, the answer to the Special Educational Needs Student has improved. However, some studies, show that students with autism or hyperactivity mainly are stating that not all are advantages, but this type of schooling also certain risks can be derived, for example, greater involvement in school violence. This study aims to examine the involvement in bullying of pupils with SEN, comparing it with the total sample and to examine the possible relationship of this involvement with the school climate and having classmates with SEN. For this, 627 students of ESO (46.3% girls) in the province of Seville (Spain) completed the European Bullying Questionnaire and Delaware School Climate Survey. Remarkably, the absence of significant differences in involvement in bullying between groups and the differential role of school climate perceptions of the three subgroups: general students, students with specifics needs of educational support and students with SEN. The results are discussed in relation with previous ones. CITE AS:Martos Carmona, A. & Del Rey Alamillo, R. (2013).

La introducción de la obra de Skinner en España
Authors: Bayes Sopena Ramón
Published: October 2023

Desde un punto de vista cronológico podríamos, quizá considerar que el Análisis Experimental de la Conducta se inicia en España una soleada mañana de verano de 1966 —al menos, este es el dato más antiguo que conozco— en la que, de forma completamente fortuita, cayó en mis manos un ejemplar de Walden two de B.F. Skinner.
El libro me gustó. Encontré altamente original y estimulante su forma de plantear algunos problemas humanos. Quizás influyera en mi apreciación el hecho de que cuando me casé, junto con otras parejas amigas, habíamos planeado formar una comunidad —proyecto que nunca se convirtió en realidad—. Ignorante de que me hallaba ante un best-seller, planteé a Editorial Fontanella su posible edición en castellano; tras algunas reti- cencias, aceptaron hacerse cargo de la misma y me pidieron preparara un prólogo, el cual, a petición mía, ha desaparecido de las últimas ediciones para dejar paso a otro, más valioso, del propio Skinner.

Authors: Kushal Challagurgula , Kumar Ashwani
Published: October 2023

Field trial was conducted at the Central Research Farm, during rabi, 2022-2023. The experiment was laid out in RBD (randomized block design). Eight treatments were evaluated against Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner). Insecticides with treatment T1 chlorantraniliprole 18.5%SC (1:10.) was the best. This was chlorantraniliprole 18.5%SC, ½ dose chlorantraniliprole + nisco sixer plus 2ml/ l (O. sanctum 13%+ A. nardus 4%), spinosad 45%SC, nisco sixer plus 2ml/ l (O. sanctum 13%+ A. nardus 4%) recorded the least fruit infestation. The highest yield was noticed in chlorantraniliprole 18.5%SC (240.5 q/ ha), followed by ½ dose chlorantraniliprole + nisco sixer plus 2ml/ l (O. sanctum 13%+ A. nardus 4%).

This study was conducted to establish the baseline susceptibility data for Tetranychus urticae Koch, successfully maintained under laboratory conditions without exposure to acaricides. The leaf dip method of bioassay was used to establish the baseline susceptibility. Toxicity (LC50 value) varied across the major acaricides i.e., chlorfenapyr 10SC, propargite 57EC, fenazaquin 10EC, abamectin 3EC, spiromesifen 22.9SC and dicofol 18.5EC. Maximum toxicity was recorded for fenazaquin 10EC (0.08 ppm), followed by propargite 57EC, and the lowest was recorded with chlorfenapyr 10 SC (0.16 ppm). The LC50 values for all acaricides tested were lower than concentrations used as recommended field doses. This baseline data might be useful in monitoring and in the management of acaricide resistance in T. urticae.
ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF VENTURE CAPITAL AND PATENTS ON
HIGH-TECH EXPORTS

Ensuring appropriate financial flows is of key importance in the development of innovation processes. This study describes the importance of venture capital, one of the sources of financing innovative processes and the basics of its formation, based on the analysis conducted by many authors. Particular attention was paid to the dynamics of hightech exports, patents granted and the index of venture capital availability in Armenia and neighboring countries, Eastern Europe. Using econometric models, the following hypotheses underlying the study were tested: Are there dependencies between high-tech exports and patents granted, on the one hand, and the index of availability of venture capital and high-tech exports, on the other? What is the direction and amplitude of abovementioned relations? As a result of the study, it was shown that an increase in venture capital, other things being equal, leads to an increase in the share of high-tech, while an increase in patents granted also positively affects the dynamics of the share of high-tech exports.
ARMENIA’S DEMOGRAPHIC DIPLOMACY AND THE CHALLENGES OF
THE DIGITALIZATION ERA
Authors: Manasserian Tatoul
Published: October 2023

In the years of independence, the ineffective resettlement policy, and in some years, its
absence in Artsakh and Armenia, the disproportionate distribution of the population and
resources did not allow for effective and balanced development, which only led to the
increase in the level of poverty / in Armenia in 2023. 42 percent poverty is predicted at
the beginning/ 1 ։ In this sense, the fact that not all developing countries are conducting a
targeted demographic policy is not at all comforting. As for developed countries, there
are quite different problems here as well. Basically, their birth rate is low, which means
that the population grows slowly, hence the problem of shortage of labor resources.
Therefore, the mentioned countries are trying to implement policies aimed at increasing
the birth rate: one-time payments to young people, benefits, state support for the birth of
a child, monthly child allowance, loans for large families, etc. It is natural that we accept
the use of incentives typical of developed countries.
STUDENT / UNIVERSITY MATCHING MARKET ANALYSIS IN RA
Authors: PETROSYAN Rafayel , HAROYAN Sona
Published: October 2023

The article examines the student/university matching market and the admissions process
in the Republic of Armenia, with the goal of evaluating the stability of the current matching algorithm. Stability of the current matching algorithm is examined by considering the preferences of students and universities accommodating concepts of polygamous matching. A simulation is conducted using Python to evaluate the stability of the matching process based on derived objection sets. The results provide insights into the stability and effectiveness of the current algorithm and its implications for the student-university matching market in Armenia. The objections are identified, indicating instances where students and programs prefer each other to their current matches. The analysis
reveals cases of instability in the matching algorithm, indicating its inefficiency. Suggestions for improvement include implementing the Gale-Shapley algorithm, which
guarantees stable matchings, and incorporating waiting lists for practical application.

Food security and increased fish production are critical issues for many countries, including Iraq, where many rely on fish as a primary source of protein and nutrition. To achieve this goal efficiently and sustainably, it is essential to understand and monitor the environmental factors that affect the success of fish farming. This study analyzed water temperature and pH levels in several fish ponds in the Lailan, Daqoq, Yayji, and Sarkaran regions of Iraq. Monthly and spatial variations in these environmental factors were studied over several months in the year, allowing an understanding of their impact on the aquatic environment and fish health. The results showed monthly and spatial variations in water temperature and pH levels among the studied regions. These results were compared with international standards for fish water quality, and it was concluded that most of the ponds met these standards, suggesting the potential for improving fish farming practices and increasing production. Furthermore, the study highlighted the importance of achieving a balance in water temperature and pH levels to maintain fish health and enhance the success of farming operations. These findings can contribute to agricultural sustainability, provide food resources for local communities, and achieve food security in the region. Understanding the relationship between water temperature and pH levels and fish health and productivity is a crucial step towards enhancing the fish farming sector in Iraq and meeting the increasing food needs of the population [1].
