Published: January 2024

New 2-[(4-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonothioyl)methylene]aminobenzoic acid ligand-Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) complexes are synthesized and characterized in this article. Elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy, conductivity tests, magnetic susceptibility, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, electronic absorption spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations were used to determine the coordination mode, and geometry of the synthesized compounds. The Schiff-base ligand was shown to be mono-negatively charged and coordinate to metal ions in a bi-dentate mode through azomethine nitrogen (-CH=N-) and carboxylic Oxygen (-COOH). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed in addition to the experimental data to assess the most probable structures of the complexes. In addition, the biological activities of these compounds were evaluated by in vitro antibacterial and antifungal assays. These novel Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) compounds were shown to be active against a wide variety of microorganisms, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as fungi. Following that, molecular docking was used to analyze the complexes' interactions with bacterial proteins, validating the therapeutic potential of the metal-containing compounds.

Contour Mapping for Rain Rate and Rain Attenuation in Microwave and Millimetre Wave Earth-Satellite Link Design in Tropical Tanzania
Authors: Linga Promota , Iddi Hashim , Kissaka Mussa
Published: January 2024

Rain rate and rain attenuation predictions are vital in the analysis of the performance of earth-satellite link at higher frequencies beyond 10 GHz for satellite system planning. This study intended to address lack of rain attenuation profile based on local rainfall data collected from various parts of the country. A one-minute integration time rainfall rate used to estimate the rain-induced attenuation was obtained by converting the annual rainfall data collected for 40 years from 22 locations in Tanzania using a combination of Chebil and refined Moupfouma-Martin methods. The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) standard was used to predict attenuation caused by one-minute rain rate. Contour maps for rain rate and rain attenuation were then generated over different percentages of times of 0.1% and 0.01% for both Ku and Ka-bands using the Kriging interpolation method in ArcGIS software. The maps show higher predicted rain rate values compared to the values given by the ITU in zones K, M and N. The developed maps can be used for rapid and precise estimation of link budget for satellite system design in Tanzania.

Keywords: contour maps; one-minute; rain attenuation; integration time; Ku-band and Ka-bands

Integridad, instituciones sólidas y transparencia en el marco del Objetivo de Desarrollo Sostenible 16
Authors: Balderas-Sánchez Felipe de Jesús
Published: January 2024

La corrupción se ha complicado tanto en la sociedad mundial, que una buena parte de los acuerdos y convenios internacionales la incluyen dentro de sus decálogos como un problema que hay que combatir. En esta realidad, las instituciones en el marco de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible juegan un papel preponderante, pues constituyen una oportunidad para cambiar el rumbo de la sociedad mundial. El número que corresponde al objetivo de “Paz, justicia e instituciones sólidas”, es de particular relevancia; pues supone la creación y el afianzamiento de organizaciones íntegras y sólidas, en las que la transparencia, la rendición de cuentas y el acceso a la información juegan un papel fundamental donde la integridad se convierte en la virtud central y el fundamento del desarrollo sostenible. La cuestión es simple, si vivimos en una sociedad injusta, es porque hay instituciones que tienen esas mismas características. La práctica de la transparencia y la información accesible, juegan un papel fundamental.
A COMPARATIVE CLINICAL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF
JEERAKADI LEPA AND MUKHAKANTIKARA LEPA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF
VYANGA(MELASMA)
Authors: G.Patil Pratibharani , S.Badiger Mahadev , Hudedamani Irappa , M Arun
Published: January 2024

Vyanga is one of the important diseases pertaining to hyper Pigmentation disorders. It is considered Kshudraro-gas, which occurs mainly due to vitiation of Vata, Pitta and Rakta. Vyanga presence of Neeruja, Tanu, Shyavav-arnayukta mandala on Mukhapradesha. Melasma is a hyperpigmented macular lesion that develops slowly and symmetrically over the malar area, bridge of the nose, forehead and upper lips, more commonly seen in females than males. Hyperpigmentation is due to increased melanocytes activity in epidermal and dermal layers. Brhajaka pitta is mainly related to Varna of twacha. So, Pitta is the main culprit to cause Vyanga. Here, all Jeerakadi Lepa's and Mukhakantikara Lepa's ingredients are Pittashamaka, Varnyakara, Raktaprasadaka, Twakprasadaka, Kandughna, Kusthaghna. Methods: A Randomized comparative clinical trial is adopted. In Group A were given Jeerakadi lepa with milk for 30 days application (once in a day).In Group B were given Mukhakantikara lepa with water for 30 days application (once in a day) .Total duration of study was carried out for 45 days. Results: By applying the Friedman test and Wilcoxon sign rank test for within the group it was sta-tistically significant. The Mann Whitney U test is applied between the groups the results showed statistically not significant. Hence, we conclude that we
reject null hypothesis H0 and accept the alternate hypothesis H2. i.e H2 : Jeerakadi lepa is more effective than Mukhakantikara lepa in the management of Vyanga.
SHODHANA IN PCOS-RELATED INFERTILITY
Authors: B. R Anagha , H. S Madhushree , Puttur Ganesh
Published: January 2024

Infertility is the inability to conceive in one or more years of regular unprotected coitus, and polycystic ovarian
syndrome is a leading cause. Based on the pathogenesis, it is a Vata-Kaphaja Vyadhi with improper Agni.
Symptomatically, PCOS is correlated to Artava-Kshaya and Pushpaghni Jataharani. Artava-Kshaya suggests
Artavavaha Srotodushti, and Pushpaghni Jataharani refers to anovulatory cycles. Likewise, matured ovarian
follicles are not expelled but converted to multiple cysts in PCOS. Hence, the management should be oriented in
Agni Deepana and remove Srotosanga, for which Shodhana is considered the best. As there is Dushti in Kapha,
Rasa, and Meda, Vamana Karma is indicated, followed by Virechana Karma for balancing the Pitta and Agni
Deepana for Uttarottara Dhatu Poshana and Vatanulomana for correcting Apana Vayu aiding in the expulsion of
Artava. Shodhana also improves the functioning of the Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Ovarian axis. Thus, PCOS-related
infertility can be managed with Shodhana, Shamanoushadhi, and lifestyle modifications.

Authors: Sundar Shetty Supritha , Rajashekhar K N , N Arjun.
Published: January 2024

The roots of Shareera (body) existence are Doshas, Dhatus, and Malas. The theory of Tridosha is unique to
Ayurveda. These Doshas decide the phenotypic and genotypic character of an individual. They are essential in
maintaining the homeostasis of the body. Doshas, when vitiated, can lead to diseases. Vata, Pitta, and Kapha are
the Tridoshas with specific Karma (functions) in the body due to their particular Gunas (properties). Among the
Tridoshas, Kapha has properties like Shlakshna, Sthira, Guru, Sheeta, etc., which suggest that it is heavy, slimy,
thick, and cold. There are five types of Kapha – Avalambaka, Kledaka, Shleshaka, Bodhaka, and Tarpaka. Each
of them has its specific location and functions. An attempt is made to understand and correlate Kapha and its subtypes with modern medical science.

Tendencies Of Gingivitis In Users Of False Teeth Made By The Dentalone In The Community Of Sungai Alang Village, Banjar District
Authors: Rahma Waljuni Astu , Habibah Siti Sab’atul , Isnawati Isnawati
Published: January 2024

Dental health in Indonesia, a developing country, is still a serious challenge, with the prevalence of dental and oral diseases reaching 60% of the population. The public's low dental hygiene knowledge is the main factor causing this problem. This research aims to increase public understanding and awareness of dental health as a first step towards improving dental health.

Using analytical methods with a cross-sectional approach, the study evaluated the condition of gingivitis in denture users, both made by dentists and dentists/dental technicians in Sungai Alang Village, Banjar Regency. The results of the study showed that the highest level of severe gingivitis was among users of dentures made by dentists, followed by mild gingivitis, while moderate gingivitis was rarely found.

Among users of dentures made by dentists/dental technicians, the most common group is mild gingivitis, followed by moderate and severe gingivitis. Interestingly, individuals who wore dentures for more than ten years had a 5.1 times higher risk of developing severe gingivitis than those who wore them for 1-5 years or 6-10 years. Furthermore, the risk of gingivitis was higher in those who made dentures at a dentist, with a gingival score difference of 0.121 compared to those who made dentures at a dentist/dental technician. These findings provide important insights regarding factors that can influence the level of gingivitis in denture users in the Sungai Alang Village community and Banjar Regency and emphasize the need for more intensive dental health education to increase public awareness and understanding of dental hygiene.
Building Global Awareness For Peace Through Reconstruction Of The Study Of Interpretation And Islamic Studies (Reflections On The Palestine-Israel Conflict)
Authors: Zulkarnaini Zulkarnaini , Masri Dedi
Published: January 2024

This research proposes a contemporary analytical approach to the development of technology and science, which plays a crucial role in shaping human life today. The focus is on humans' understanding of themselves through exploring various aspects of life, using various branches of science and the latest research findings. In the context of a conflict of beliefs, this research investigates tensions between Israel and Palestine by exploring Muslims' views towards Jews. Reluctance to dialogue and negative perceptions create complexity in achieving sustainable solutions. This study shows that global, historical and cultural understanding on both sides is critical to overcoming differences in beliefs and creating shared understanding. Research also highlights the role of politics and interest groups in prolonging the conflict in the Middle East. Although this conflict involves international interests, it is essential to recognize that unification efforts can still be realized through dialogue and mutual understanding. With hindsight, research reveals that the history of this conflict can be traced back to Yathrib, highlighting a shift from initial good relations to tensions resulting from differences in faith and belief. This research concludes that through dialogue, rejection of fanaticism, and increased awareness, it is still possible to achieve human brotherhood amidst the complexity of conflicting beliefs.

Published: January 2024

En este trabajo se presentan los resultados del análisis termoeconómico realizado a un sistema de refrigeración por compresión de vapor con una capacidad de 1 tonelada de refrigeración, al que se le ha instalado un enfriador termoeléctrico para subenfriar el refrigerante a la salida del condensador. Se estudiaron dos condiciones de subenfriamiento: de 5 y de 8°C. Para el análisis termoeconómico se aplicó la Teoría del Costo Exergético desarrollada por el doctor Antonio Valero Capilla de la Universidad de Zaragoza, España. Los resultados experimentales mostraron que al instalar el enfriador termoeléctrico aumenta el efecto refrigerante del sistema sin requerir mayor trabajo por parte del compresor, lo que incrementa el coeficiente de desempeño (COP) del sistema de refrigeración hasta 7.2%. Sin embargo, del estudio termoeconómico se observó que los costos exergéticos unitarios resultantes de subenfriar el refrigerante con un enfriador termoeléctrico, se incrementan hasta 26% con respecto a la operación normal del sistema sin subenfriamiento. Se concluye que es recomendable subenfriar el refrigerante con un enfriador termoeléctrico sólo en caso que para la alimentación de este dispositivo se aproveche alguna fuente alterna de energía que no implique un costo extra.

La displasia del desarrollo de la cadera es una patología de etiología multifactorial, donde debemos comprender la anatomía, las anormalidades del acetábulo, así como su reconstrucción y el análisis de las superficies acetabulares por medio de técnicas de imagen. Por lo que se requiere realizar un estudio tomográfico en estos pacientes, con el objetivo de analizar la superficie del acetábulo y la posible recuperación de la cavidad acetabular operada. Se analizaron tomografías de 10 pacientes por medio de un software de diseño. Se obtuvo diferencia significativa (operado vs sano), en pacientes de tres años de edad, 15.1 +/- 8.4 mm más de superficie acetabular. Con dos años de postquirúrgico, la superficie acetabular media del lado operado fue 14.3 +/- 10.7 mm mayor respecto al sano. A los cuatro años de postquirúrgico, el lado operado tuvo 16.0 +/- 13.1 mm más respecto al sano. Al aumentar la edad de cirugía, la diferencia de la superficie acetabular fue disminuyendo significativamente. Es claro que la técnica de medición propuesta es capaz de identificar diferencias entre superficies acetabulares (operado y sano). El seguimiento clínico de estos pacientes podrá validar los resultados obtenidos y servirá para poder estimar la eficacia de la técnica quirúrgica aplicada.
La ecuación discreta de Pocklington aplicada a la transformación de mediciones de campo cercano en campo lejano
Authors: Carrión-Rivera Luis , Sosa-Pedroza Jorge , Martínez-Zúñiga Fabiola
Published: January 2024

Los sistemas actuales de comunicaciones móviles, de tecnología MIMO, requieren de antenas inteligentes capaces de utilizar favorablemente la multitrayectoria para mejorar la calidad de la señal deseada. Las antenas de las estaciones base 4G, actualmente en despliegue en el mundo y en particular en nuestro país, son en esencia un doble arreglo ortogonal, de dimensiones típicas de 1.4 m, con frecuencias de operación entre 1.7 y 2.7 GHz; estas dimensiones y su relación con la longitud de onda (el tamaño eléctrico de la antena), implica que la distancia mínima de medición de campo lejano es superior a los 25 m. Considerando que la caracterización debe hacerse en un medio controlado, es de suponerse el costo de una cámara anecoica de tales dimensiones. Presentamos en este trabajo una propuesta de conversión de medición en campo cercano usando la ecuación de Pocklington para obtener el campo lejano mediante la teoría de arreglos, a partir del cálculo de corrientes virtuales cerca de la antena.

Spontaneous Rupture of the Urinary Bladder: A Case Report
Authors: Haydar Mohammad
Published: January 2024

Spontaneous rupture of the bladder (SRUB) is a rare occurrence globally (<1%). The most common cause of bladder rupture is trauma (96%). We present a case of a 34-year-old man with a history of heavy alcohol consumption and significant smoking history. He presented with diffuse abdominal pain and urinary retention. On blood tests, he was found to have increased creatinine. A urinary catheter was inserted and there was improvement in his kidney function. However, on removal of the catheter, his creatinine function would elevate. This occurred two times before further investigations were performed. CT cystography was performed and there was a significant amount of free intraperitoneal fluid found in the pelvis. After retrograde filling of the bladder with contrast material, a tear in the dome of the bladder was discovered. The patient underwent a surgical repair of the tear and there were no complications during surgery. In summation, spontaneous urinary bladder rupture is a rare emergency which can cause acute abdomen, oliguria, peritoneal effusion and abnormal renal function. In patients with heavy alcohol consumption and especially without an associated trauma history, physicians should consider SRUB. CT scan can help in diagnosis. Diagnostic laparoscopy or explorative laparotomy should not be delayed.

Authors: Krishna G S  , L Mahadevan  , Kasthuri Nair A  , Arun Pratap
Published: January 2024

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder mainly characterized by elevated blood sugar level or hyperglycemia. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is the most common form, accounting for about 90% of the total diabetic population and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The condition mainly occurs from insulin resistance and relative deficiency in insulin secretion. The condition hampers the patient’s quality of life with symptoms of polyuria, polyphagia, polydipsia, fatigue, weight loss, etc. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus can be managed effectively in the initial phases with proper medication and lifestyle modification. The untimely treatment, chronicity of insulin resistance, and hyperglycemia can cause damage to multiple organs.

Prakriti is an integral part of Ayurveda, which is an eternal science based on absolute principles. It is essential for the selection and formation of all factors for which a person will interact from conception to death, such as lifestyle, diet, etc. It represents the character of the body in relation to the Dosha and is determined at the moment of conception based on the predominant Dosha. This character does not change throughout a person's lifetime and is responsible for their physical and mental attributes. Tridosha says there are seven types of Prakriti. People with certain Prakriti have different bodies in terms of how they work, how they act, how they react to things in their environment, how likely they are to get diseases, and so on. Prakriti identifies how an individual reacts to environmental conditions, lifestyle changes, and drugs, and how susceptible they are to different diseases. It's one of the first ideas in preventive and personalized (or genomic) medicine. To figure out how susceptible an individual is to different diseases, what drugs to use, how much to take, how the drug reacts to the body, how the disease will progress, and how to prevent it, first Prakriti is done, then Vikriti is done. Prakriti focuses on uniqueness and plays a big role in preventing and curing diseases, as well as keeping you healthy throughout your life. Analysis of the concept of Prakriti is made to find out through this paper.
