Introduction:

Tracheostomy is a life-saving procedure; the benefits and frequency of procedures being performed have led to frequent reviews of indication in many regions of the world. The aim is to establish the indications, diagnosis and complications of tracheostomy performed in the past 10 years in a tertiary hospital in Lagos.

Methods:

This is a 10-year retrospective study of all patients who had tracheostomies for various indications from 2010 to 2019. Patient medical records were analysed for demographic profile, diagnosis, indication, elective or emergency tracheostomy, surgeon’s rank, technique of decannulation and type of complications. All the variables in the data were imputed and analyzed using the IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 27. Continuous variables were presented as mean and standard deviation, whereas categorical variables were presented as frequency and percentage.

Results:

Four hundred and eighty-six tracheostomies were carried out during the period under review, and 440 patients had complete data retrieved. The age group of 0–9 years constituted the most common age for tracheostomy (18%). The most common indication for tracheostomy was for relief of upper airway obstruction in 53.4%. Neoplasms (40%) and trauma (30.7%) constituted primary diagnosis requiring tracheostomies. Amongst the paediatric age group with upper airway obstruction, infections (31.8%) and foreign body inhalation (24.3%) constituted the most common primary diagnosis. Stoma infection and peristomal granulation tissue were the most common early complication (21.8%) and late complication (43.4%), respectively.

Conclusion:

Relief of upper airway obstruction from neoplasm remains the most common indication for tracheostomy, and peristomal granulation infection was the most common complication.

Authors: Adeyekun Ademola A. , Koleoso Olaide N. , Akanni Oluyemi O.
Published: November 2023

BACKGROUND:

The majority of women described hysterosalpingography (HSG) as a painful procedure. There is little information on the features of HSG-associated pain and factors that predispose to increased pain experience.

OBJECTIVES:

This study investigated preprocedure psychological state and related demographic factors as predictors of pain perception in women undergoing HSG.

METHODS:

The sample included 99 women selected through consecutive sampling at the Radiology Department, University of Benin Teaching Hospital, Benin City, Nigeria. The study utilized a cross-sectional survey design to collect data using Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Zung Self-rating Depression Scale, and Visual Analog Scale for the perception of pain and state anxiety.

RESULTS:

The women with lower state anxiety reported significantly lower pain perception (X̅ = 6.69) than the women with high anxiety (X̅ = 7.93). Trait anxiety, state anxiety, and depression jointly predicted pain perception among the women undergoing HSG, with R
2 = 0.117, F (3,95) = 6.797; P < 0.001. They collectively accounted for about 17.7% variance in pain perception.

CONCLUSION:

Patients being prepared for the HSG procedure can be educated on concerns related to anxiety and coping strategies and be provided with anxiolytics or other medication as clinically indicated.

Published: November 2023

INTRODUCTION: Air pollution in urban areas becomes a severe challenge to global health; exposure to polluting gases can lead to different diseases and even human mortality. In this sense, monitoring the concentration of polluting gases such as carbon monoxide and methane is important.
OBJECTIVES: This document focuses on developing a Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) to monitor the concentration of carbon monoxide and methane at different altitudes.
METHODS: This includes a Parrot AR Drone 2.0, where the measurement prototype was mounted. The data was transmitted and reception at a ground control station through an application programmed in LabVIEW 15.0.
RESULTS: The experimental measurements showed that the concentration of carbon monoxide remains almost unchanged regardless of variations in altitude. In contrast, methane concentration reduces linearly with the increase in height with respect to ground level in Puerto Maldonado.
CONCLUSION: We implemented an RPAS to monitor in real time, record data in a control station and analyze the concentration of carbon monoxide and methane in the South Eastern Peruvian Amazon.
Substrate‐integrated‐waveguide cavity‐backed circularly polarized antenna with enhanced bandwidth and gain
Authors: Patil Shankaragouda M. , Venkatesan Rajeshkumar
Published: November 2023

We propose a method for increasing the bandwidth of a substrate‐integrated‐waveguide (SIW) cavity‐backed antenna with taper‐based microstrip SIW transition feeding. For radio transmission, a circular slot is etched on top of the SIW cavity. For optimal antenna design, the slot is etched slightly away from the cavity center to generate circularly polarized waves. Simulations show a wide axial ratio bandwidth of 7.860% between 11.02 GHz and 11.806 GHz. Experimental results confirm a similar wide axial ratio bandwidth of 4.9% between 10.8 GHz and 11.35 GHz. An SIW feed from an inductive window excites the radiating circular slot, resulting in a simulated wide impedance range of 1.548 GHz (10.338 GHz–11.886 GHz) and bandwidth of 13.93%. Experimental results show a wide impedance of 2.08 GHz (10.2 GHz–12.08 GHz) and bandwidth of 18.84%. The SIW cavity‐backed antenna creates a unidirectional pattern, leading to gains of 6.61 dBi and 7.594 dBi in simulations and experiments, respectively. The proposed antenna was fabricated on a Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 substrate, and the reflection coefficient, radiation patterns, and gains were tested and compared using a computer simulator. The developed broadband antenna seems suitable for X‐band applications.
Macroeconomic policy at the end of the age of abundance
Authors: Michell Jo
Published: November 2023

Progressive policy proposals influenced by post-Keynesian economics emphasise the use of fiscal policy and income redistribution to maintain aggregate demand at levels which achieve full employment. Given persistent evidence of weak demand, excess capacity and unemployment in rich economies since around 1980, expansion of demand would have been appropriate over much of this period. Tighter supply constraints – both short-run constraints due to disruption caused by climate change and geopolitical tensions, and longer-run constraints due to absolute carbon budgets – impose additional challenges in designing policy. In order to increase investment sufficiently to achieve net zero goals, constraints on consumption may be required. Such constraints would weaken the multiplier mechanisms emphasised by post-Keynesian analysis, implying lower growth and higher public debt stocks. Traditional progressive policy proposals will need updating to reflect these constraints. New institutional arrangements will be required to implement updated policy packages.
Os “outros” do currículo

Published: November 2023

Este artigo tem como objetivo pensar as possibilidades de descolonização no ensino de Biologia, tendo como escopo as relações entre conhecimento científico e conhecimentos “não científicos” na constituição do conhecimento escolar. Propomos um debate sobre essas relações, interrogando a divisão binária entre tais conhecimentos e sua gramática de alterização da diferença. Argumentamos que tal binaridade articula a sujeição da diferença em termos de “outros” saberes que não os científicos, reescrevendo suas formas como conhecimentos transparentes e substancializáveis. Essa operação fragmenta o potencial do debate sobre a descolonização dos currículos de Biologia com sua promessa de representação via inclusão, ao passo que negligencia a tarefa de deslocar o estatuto das ciências biológicas da pretensão de totalidade e integralidade.

Published: November 2023

Em tempos de mutações ecológicas, torna-se urgente ensaiar outras maneiras de coexistir no mundo. Assim, buscamos discutir currículo a partir de uma perspectiva multiespécies. Nesta pesquisa exploramos possíveis encontros entre plantas, arte e educação, para propor experimentações artísticas no ensino de Biologia. Foram realizadas oficinas com estudantes do 2º ano do ensino médio da rede pública. Refletimos sobre como essas experimentações nos ajudam a semear currículos outros que nos permitam coexistir com seres não-humanos. Como essas experimentações podem disparar outras formas de ver o mundo? É possível abrir brechas no currículo de Biologia para semear pedagogias multiespécies? Como experimentar currículos-multiespécies? Por isso, enxergamos nas práticas experimentais tentativas de inventar outras relações que escapem da fantasia do excepcionalismo humano.

Fixed word groups like "Linker Hand" as constructions
Authors: CHISELIOV Victor
Published: November 2023

Construction Grammar, which emerged from Langacker´s Cognitive Grammar, has emerged in recent decades as a new trend in linguistic researh. The task of the Construction Grammar is to empirically descibe the grammatical phenomena of a language. It represents the language system as a contruction inventory, which is called c o n s t r u c t i c o n. Constructions are linguistic units that contain form and meaning and can be used to describe a language. In this article the author tries to identify fixed groups of words in German as linker Hand as constructions. For this purpose, the grammatical analysis of such groups of words is performed, ie the specific characteristics of these constructions have been verified.
Modeling and plastic techniques in the creation of the Moldovan sculptural animal genre
Authors: MARIAN Ana
Published: November 2023

Modeling techniques, together with plastic ones, play a decisive role in the creation of a sculptural work. The sculptural animalistic genre uses the same materials as the sculptural portrait and nude: ceramics, wood, chamotte, bronze, to which are added the techniques of coloring and toning. Thus, modeling and plastic techniques are a single whole, tightly connected, which contributes to the manifestation of the idea of work, which is intuitively foreseen by the author from the very beginning and takes on contours more clearly in the modeling process in the material.

Published: November 2023

Традиционными источниками белка в кормах для аквакультуры являются рыбная мука и соя, но доступность этих компонентов становится ограниченной из-за постепенного истощения запасов Мирового океана. С этой точки зрения насекомые могут быть ценным источником протеина как альтернативный белок для аквакультуры. В России личинок тропической мухи Hermetia illucens L. чаще используют для получения биогумуса после переработки пищевых отходов, но в последние годы становится популярным направление культивирования личинок для изготовления рыбных комбикормов. В связи с этим, настоящее исследование было направлено на оценку влияния замены части рыбной муки личинками черной львинки в рационе годовиков радужной форели (Oncorhynchus mykiss). По результатам изучения показателей эффективности роста радужной форели, выращенной на продукционных кормах с добавлением личинок черной львинки в виде подготовленного кормового субстрата из замороженных насекомых и пшеничного глютена через экструдер, описано влияние экспериментальной диеты с положительным рыбоводно-биологическим эффектом. Специально для проведения эксперимента было разработано два рецепта комбикормов (для опытной и контрольной групп), в одном из которых часть рыбной муки заменили на личинку H. illucens. Эксперимент проводился на генетически однородных группах рыб в условиях содержания в системе замкнутого водоснабжения в течение 77 суток. Для индивидуального контроля биометрических и морфологических параметров каждой рыбе был введен микрочип в область спинного плавника. Оценка показателей абсолютного и относительного приростов в контрольной и опытной группах рыб позволила выявить, что наличие личинки в составе кормов способствовало наибольшей активности ростовых процессов у форели. Величина относительного прироста массы рыб в опытной группе выше на 13 %, чем в контрольной. Различия между средними арифметическими становятся очевидными на 50-е сутки с начала эксперимента и достигают максимума к его окончанию.

Published: November 2023

Обсуждаются изменения неспецифической резистентности иммунитета у 25 человек до и после воздействия на их кровь in vitro низкоконцентрированных праймирующих растворов (НПР), полученных из водных экстрактов камчатских ламинариевых водорослей Аrthrothamnus bifidus и Laminaria repens. Пробы их крови активировали HПР дважды: в начале эксперимента и после тридца-тидневного ежедневного употребления per os водорослевого геля, полученного из Hedophyllum bongardianum. Иммуномодулирующий эффект оценивали по фагоцитарной активности нейтрофилов, фагоцитарному числу, абсолютному фагоцитарному показателю и сумме фагоцитоза. Показано, что вещества, содержащиеся в альгогеле в доступной форме, способны проникать из желудочно-кишечного тракта в кровеносное русло, где под их влиянием нормализуется лейкоцитарный профиль крови. Концентрация НПР 0,25 % неэффективна, но при 5 % и выше наблюдалась супрессия фагоцитоза. НПР 0,5; 1 и 2 %, особенно из двухлетних образцов А. bifidus и L. repens, оказали на нейтрофилы наибольшее праймирующее воздействие и дополнительно инактивировали бактерии во внеклеточной среде. НПР из L. repens индуцировали процессы внеклеточной дегрануляции, а из А. bifidus – вели к формированию нейтрофильных внеклеточных ловушек. Результаты исследования показали, что изученные виды могут служить сырьем для получения БАДов с иммуномодулирующим действием.

Published: November 2023

The prospects of deep space exploration necessitate modification of the principles and methods underlying the system designed to prevent negative impact of weightlessness on the human body. This work aimed to determine how fast running, as part of locomotor training during a space flight (SF), helps maintain physical ability of a person. The study involved 10 cosmonauts; their physical performance was assessed at all stages of the SF with the help of the Individual Strategies Test (IST). The parameters registered when the participants were doing the IST included heart rate (HR), gas exchange, capillary blood lactate concentration. The cosmonauts were divided into two groups based on the differences in the mean distance covered while fast running on a treadmill (single session). Group A (n = 4) run 949 m/day on average, group B (n = 6) — 2669 m/day. After SF, HR in group A increased at speeds from 5 to 8 km/h (p < 0.05), pulmonary ventilation indicators grew at speeds from 8 to 15 km/h (p < 0.05), and the capillary blood lactate concentration measured during the post-test recovery period increased by 37% (p = 0.03). Moreover, after SF, the pulse sum recorded under load and during recovery was 14% (p = 0.02) and 15% (p = 0.03) in group A, respectively, while in group B we registered no differences. Thus, our hypothesis that fast running triggers sensory reactions simulatingEarth conditions for the body, which consequently activates physiological mechanisms counteracting the negative effects of weightlessness, has been confirmed in a space experiment.

Basically, humans have different characters, from one to another. So, these differences in character cause people to use language differently. Differences in using language cause the emergence of sounds that are not arranged based on a meaningful system. The aim of this research is to discuss Aristotle's views on the five functions of language and communication. This research uses a descriptive method with a literature review or literature study. The research results show that language as a communication tool is the most effective way to convey thoughts, aims and objectives to the people we communicate with. Language as a means of communication has the main function of language, namely that communication is the delivery of a message or meaning by someone to another person. The function of language as a tool of human communication includes five basic functions, namely expression function, information function, exploration function, persuasion function and entertainment function.

Published: November 2023

Oral cancer is currently the sixth leading malignancy in the world, with over 330,000 cases resulting in death. Several cytokines and proteins protect the survival of cancer cells, such as TNF-α, HSP27, and IL-10. Moringa oleifera is an herbal medicine with anti-cancer properties. Nanoparticles of M. oleifera have the property to be easily absorbed by water-soluble cells, so only small doses are needed to be used as anti-cancer ingredients. This research aims to prove the ability of M. oleifera nanoparticle extract against oral cancer through the expression of tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α), heat shock protein (HSP27), and interleukin 10 (IL-10). Rat as non-human experimental subjects were divided into four groups: control group (K), treatment group 1 (P1), treatment group 2 (P2), and treatment group 3 (P3). Cancer induction was carried out by injecting with benzo[a]pyrene, and then M. oleifera nanoparticle extract was administered in three forms of treatment doses of 125 μg/mL (P1), 250 μg/mL (P2), and 500 μg/mL (P3). Immunohistochemical examination was analysed through TNF-α, HSP27, and IL-10’s expression. The expression of TNF-α and HSP27 between control and treatment groups was significantly different. P2 had the lowest expression of TNF-α and HSP27. The expression of IL-10 between control and treatment groups was also significantly different. P1 had the lowest expression of IL-10. M. oleifera nanoparticle extract can reduce oral cancer progression by decreasing the expression of TNF-α, HSP27, and IL-10.

Published: November 2023

Статья посвящена связи исторических событий и текста Конституции Российской Федерации. Автор отмечает, что Конституция была принята в крайне сложных исторических условиях. Само принятие Конституции путем референдума уже стало историческим событием. Однако обращения к истории в тексте Конституции практически не было, кроме текста Преамбулы. Эта ситуация была исправлена в ходе принятия поправок к Конституции в 2020 году. Само обращение к историческому прошлому в тексте Основного закона также было вызвано историческими причинами. Поправки продемонстрировали изменения в российском обществе, необходимость закрепить историческую преемственность и важную роль исторической науки.

The author notes that the Constitution was adopted in extremely difficult historical conditions. The very adoption of the Constitution by referendum has already become a historic event. However, there was practically no reference to history in the text of the Constitution, except for the text of the Preamble. This situation was corrected during the adoption of amendments to the Constitution in 2020. The very appeal to the historical past in the text of the Basic Law was also caused by historical reasons. The amendments demonstrated changes in Russian society, the need to consolidate historical continuity and the important role of historical science.

Published: November 2023

Проводится анализ перспектив внедрения цифрового рубля в национальную платежную систему России. Проанализированы причины, по которым криптовалюта сохраняет популярность на мировых финансовых рынках, при этом обращено внимание на содержательное различие понятий «криптовалюта», «цифровая валюта» и «цифровой рубль». Выделены недостатки, не позволяющие внедрить криптовалюту в национальную платежную систему России. Авторами исследованы законопроекты по внесению изменений в действующее законодательство, внесенные в Государственную Думу РФ в декабре 2022 года. Несмотря на прогрессивный в целом характер, законопроекты не лишены ряда недостатков. К их числу можно отнести монополизацию обращения цифрового рубля, а также появление в законодательстве схожих по звучанию терминов (цифровой рубль и цифровая валюта), что на фоне неопределенности правового режима последней может привести к путанице. Сделан вывод о том, что введение цифрового рубля является реакцией государства на санкционную политику в отношении России, в результате которой применение других традиционных фиатных денег бывает затруднено или невозможно. По результатам исследования автором предложено использовать токенизацию цифровой валюты для снижения финансовых рисков.

The article analyzes the prospects for introducing the digital ruble into the national payment system of Russia. The reasons why the cryptocurrency remains popular in the global financial markets are analyzed, while attention is drawn to the substantive difference between the concepts of “cryptocurrency”, “digital currency” and “digital ruble”. The shortcomings that do not allow the introduction of cryptocurrency into the national payment system of Russia are highlighted. The author studied the draft laws on amendments to the current legislation submitted to the State Duma of the Russian Federation in December 2022. Despite their generally progressive nature, the bills are not without a number of shortcomings. These include the monopolization of the circulation of the digital ruble, as well as the appearance in the legislation of similar-sounding terms (digital ruble and digital currency), which, against the backdrop of the uncertainty of the legal regime of the latter, can lead to confusion. It is concluded that the introduction of the digital ruble is a state reaction to the sanctions policy against Russia, as a result of which the use of other traditional fiat money is difficult or impossible. According to the results of the study, the author proposed to use digital currency tokenization to reduce financial risks.

Industry 4.0 makes work easier and faster both in education, business and other fields. Industry 4.0 prioritizes technological aspects over human resource aspects. So a new concept emerged called society 5.0. The concept of society 5.0 is very different from the concept of industry 4.0, where the concept of society 5.0 emphasizes the aspect of human resources where human resources can anticipate global trends resulting from the emergence of industry 4.0. Management science is starting to think about the direction that must be taken in responding to developments that occur. Management science in this case is used as a tool for renewal which places humans as the main component in technology.

Published: November 2023

El Modelo Métrico de Rasch es un potente recurso técnico en el que subyace una nueva visión en la psicometría contemporánea. Cuando se requiere generar medidas en la investigación social, para mejorar nuestra comprensión de atributos o rasgos del comportamiento humano, es indispensable asegurar la calidad de las propiedades métricas de los instrumentos que se emplean para estos propósitos. La metodología de Rasch proporciona las bases sólidas para establecer las propiedades necesarias y suficientes en instrumentos de medida de logro y percepción en psicología, educación, sociología, medicina; y en un amplio espectro de disciplinas en las que es necesario generar medidas fiables y válidas. Desde mediados del siglo xx y hasta el presente, los avances en teoría cognitiva, psicometría y ciencias computacionales, se entrelazan para producir medidas lineales a partir de patrones de respuesta de personas a instrumentos diseñados para representar con fiabilidad y validez las variables de interés teórico y práctico en la investigación social aplicada. La medición Rasch es -hasta ahora- un ejemplo fundamental y prominente de esta conjunción. En este texto se ofrece a los lectores de habla hispana, un trayecto completo que recorre la fundamentación matemática y la implementación computacional de este modelo con énfasis en la lógica de los procedimientos del análisis de propiedades métricas. Se detalla la implementación a través de software especializado y se incluyen ejemplos puntuales de aplicación en ciencias de la educación. Coedición con McGraw - Hill Interamericana Editores
