Authors: Potdar Amruta Ashok , Prakash Pallavi , Ramesh Madhan , Syed Jehath , Chalasani Sri Harsha
Published: October 2023

Background
Hemovigilance involves the identification, monitoring, reporting, and analysis of adverse events related to blood transfusion and donation.
Aims
To determine the pattern, incidence and causality of transfusion-related reactions
Methods
A prospective, active surveillance study was conducted over a period of six months. All patients of any sex admitted to various specialties who received blood or blood components and reported to have had transfusion reactions during or after transfusion were included in the study. The causative component, category, severity, and causality of the reactions were evaluated using the National Institute of Biological Scale. Data were analyzed categorically and are presented as n (%).
Results
A total of 5274 units were transfused during the study period, with [3494 (66.25%)] units transfused to male patients and [1780 (33.75%)] units to female patients. Packed red blood cells (PRBCs) were the most frequently transfused [2664 (50.5%)]. Of all the transfusions, 28 (0.53%) transfusion reactions (TR) were identified and reported. The most common TR recorded was febrile non-hemolytic transfusion reactions [20 (71.42%)], followed by allergic transfusion reactions [7 (25%)]. Most TRs were associated with PRBC transfusions [18 (64.28%)]. The causality of the [19 (67.85%)] reactions was identified as definite. A total of 2194 blood donations were recorded, of which [21 (0.95%)] donor reactions were reported.
Conclusion
The incidence of transfusion and donor reactions was 0.53% and 0.95%, respectively. A clinical pharmacist may assist in the active surveillance of TRs and assignment of the pattern of transfusion reactions.
Nonlinear Approximation for Natural Convection Flow Past A Vertical Moving Plate With Nonlinear Thermal Radiation Effect
Authors: Jha Basant Kumar , Samaila Gabriel
Published: October 2023

This piece of work contains significant insight associated with the analysis of fluid transport in the vicinity of a constantly moving vertical plate with nonlinear thermal radiation. The heat transport at the wall surface is assumed to be influenced by convective boundary conditions. Furthermore, thermal transport is considered to be enhanced by nonlinear temperature variation with temperature (NDT). The boundary layer approximation equations are simplified through suitable alteration known as the similarity transformation. The resulting ODEs are translated into the IVP via shooting techniques and then integrated using the RKF45 algorithm in Maple. The impact of the dimensionless parameters dictating the fluid behaviour is demonstrated via graphs and tables. In the cause of the analysis, it is observed that the heat transfer enhances when the fluid flow in the direction +ve x-axis whereas the plate moves in the direction of the -ve x-axis but decreases when the plate and fluid move in the same direction. The skin friction coefficient decreases when the fluid flow is directed toward the +ve x-axis whereas the plate moves toward the -ve x-axis but is enhanced when the plate and the fluid move in the same orientation. The temperature and velocity profiles appreciate with the nonlinear thermal radiation when the motion of the plate and the fluid are on the same axis. The temperature gradient near the wall depreciated gradually due to nonlinear thermal radiation growth but appreciate in the free stream.

Numerical Results for Viscoelastic Pipelines
Authors: Ghodhbani Abdelaziz , Haj Taïeb Ezzeddine , Akrout Mohsen , Elaoud Sami
Published: October 2023

This chapter deals with the numerical results obtained from simulation of
fluid transients in viscoelastic pipes. For the non-cavitating flow case, the simulation
shows that the pressure fluctuations are rapidly attenuated, and the overall transient
pressure wave is delayed in time due to the retarded deformation of the pipe-wall. In
addition, the simulation of the cavitating flow gives reasonable results compared to
experimental data.

Published: October 2023

The benefit of IoT devices is that they allow for automation; nevertheless,
billions of connected devices connected with one another waste a substantial amount of
energy. IoT systems will have difficulty in wide adoption if the energy requirements
are not adequately managed. This study proposes a solution for IoT devices to regulate
their energy consumption. Both hardware and software aspects are taken into
consideration. Using a mobile computer or smartphone with Internet connectivity to
interact with actual scenarios has grown more prevalent as technology has advanced
over the years. An intelligent home automation system based on android applications
has been developed to save electricity and human energy. This study aims to create
comprehensive Energy optimization through intelligent home automation utilizing
widely available mobile applications and Wi-Fi technologies. The devices are turned
on and off using Wi-Fi. Intelligent home, in the area of electronics, automation is the
most purposely misused term. Numerous technological revolutions have occurred as a
result of this demand for automation. These were more essential than any other
technologies due to their ease of use. These can be used in place of household current
switches, resulting in sparks and, in rare instances, such as fires. A unique energy
optimization system was developed to control household appliances while taking
advantage of Wi-Fi benefits.

Authors: Shekar Smitha , Harish G. , Asha K. N. , Asha Rani K. P.
Published: October 2023

The majority of today's weather forecasting studies have been focused on
complex physical models. These models are usually run on hundreds of nodes in a
High-Performance Computing system, which consumes a lot more power. Despite the
employment of these costly and complex tools, projections are frequently incorrect due
to inaccurate beginning conditions, measurements or a lack of understanding of
atmospheric dynamics. Furthermore, solving complex models like this often takes a
long time. The Internet of Things has helped any field that deals with technology.
Using an IoT device, a prototype based on a machine learning approach is proposed in
this study with an efficient framework, and implementation of an automated weather
prediction system based on Artificial Neural Network algorithms was designed and
developed. This system includes a technologically advanced irrigation system for our
convenience. Using ANN in this research, the weather for the next day appears to have
been predicted. The evaluation findings suggest that the model’s accuracy is sufficient
for existing works and their approaches.

Authors: Ouknine Lahcen , Khiri Fouad , Ibhi Abderrahmane
Published: October 2023

Meteorites are rocky or metalliferous fragments that have been ejected from
a body of the solar system following impacts with other bodies, and arriving on Earth
after traveling more or less long in space. The majority of meteorites come from the
asteroid belt (rocky bodies orbiting between Mars and Jupiter), and some other
meteorites of lower frequency, can arrive from the Moon or the planet Mars. Meteorites
provide information about the early stages of the evolution of our solar system in
general and Earth in particular, as they contain information about protosolar and even
presolar material. In this article, we will present an exhaustive synthesis of the
formation and origin of meteorites, their categorization into “falls” and “finds”
according to the circumstances of their discovery, the criteria for their identification,
and the guidelines adopted for the nomenclature of meteorites falls and finds, and their
classification.

Published: October 2023

Scabies is a chronic and serious community disorder caused by a parasite
commonly known as a mite (Sarcoptes scabiei var hominis). The long-term infection
may lead to chronic complications such as septicemia, acute post-streptococcal
glomerulonephritis, heart disease, and secondary infections. The majority of novel
medicinal agents from various plant sources are responsible for the management and
treatment of several types of chronic disorders. The safe and cost-effective alternative
treatment strategy is the use of medicinal plants that plays a potential role against a
variety of diseases due to the presence of numerous types of active phytochemicals
with no or negligible adverse effect. This study gives a unique summary, including a
correlation between traditional medicinal plants and their derived active
phytochemicals for the significant treatment of scabies. The literature search was
carried out via search engines through different databases, including Google Scholar,
PubMed, Medline, ScienceDirect, etc. A large number of medicinal plants and their
active medicinal agents have been reviewed with remarkable therapeutic effects against
scabies. There are some limitations due to insufficient data related to limited pre-clinical and clinical trials in this particular area. This review provides a baseline to
explore the therapeutic potential of these medicinal plants against skin diseases,
especially scabies. However, extensive studies are required to identify, authenticate,
and characterize the bioactive compounds present in these plants, which may lead to
value addition in pharmaceutical industries by providing a cost-effective way of
treatment with minimal side effects.

Some synthetic drugs are usually associated with side effects, while natural
products may be characterized by poor solubility and/or stability. The application of
nanoparticles, cutting across all human utilities with drug development is no exception.
Skin disease treatment is one aspect of medicine that is so distinct in the sense that
treatment usually involves topical application involving eventual absorption onto the
skin surface. The use of nanoparticles has proven to be an effective way to solve the
issues with the use of natural products in skin care and treatment. This effectiveness
has been shown to be due to efficacy in the properties of these natural products,
including solubility, stability, permeability, toxicity, side effects, the release of active
ingredients-and biocompatibility. This section examines the role of nanosized natural
products in treating skin disorders.

Background: households are one of the biggest contributors to food waste in DKI Jakarta. This is caused by household food loss and waste (FLW) behavior and the impact of this behavior is economic loss and nutritional loss in vain. Objective: To analyze the correlation between FLW behavior and household economic and nutrition loss during the Covid-19 pandemic in West Jakarta. Methods: This study is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design involving 100 households in the Kebon Jeruk area, West Jakarta. The analysis in this study uses the Spearman Rank correlation. Data were collected by interview technique using FLW behavior questionnaire and food waste questionnaire form filled out by respondents for 4x24 hours. The value of this economic loss will be analyzed using the market price listed on Hargapangan.id and the value of nutrition loss will be analyzed using nutrisurvey2007. The results: there is a relationship between FLW behavior on economic loss (p = 0.02; p <0.05) but there is no relationship between FLW behavior on nutrition loss, namely energy loss (p = 0.15; p> 0.05), protein loss (p=0,20;p>0,05), fat loss (p=0,33;p>0,05) and carbohydrate loss (p=0,12;p>0,05). Households are expected to change their FLW behavior in order to minimize economic losses and optimally utilize nutrition.

Published: October 2023

Low birth weight (LBW) is influenced by various factors, such as maternal education, gestational age, maternal nutritional status, and economic level. The high pregnancy rate in adolescent mothers is in line with pregnancy complications experienced, one of which is giving birth to LBW babies. The aim of this study was to analyze the risk factors most associated with the incidence of LBW babies in mothers aged less than 20 years old in Wagir District, Malang Regency. The data collection method was used cross-sectional. The inclusion criteria in this study were mothers who were less than 20 years old, had given birth to a baby with LBW, and were domiciled in Wagir District. The data was analysed by logistic regression test. A total of 106 respondents participated in this study. The results showed that the factors that were significantly related were nutritional status (p-value 0.012), economic level (p-value 0.030), and gestational age (p-value 0.046). The dominant factor was nutritional status (p-value 0,012; OR 0,666). Nutritional status is the most influential thing for the health of both mother and baby, so the role of health workers in educating women during the preconception period regarding nutrition and the risk of pregnancy is essential.

Listener Perception of Spatialised Audio for Embodied Interaction in Sonification
Authors: Beadling Andrew , Vickers Paul
Published: October 2023

One underexplored method for examining sonification perception is through spatialised audio parameter mapping. To lower the entry threshold for listeners unfamiliar with sonification, binaural rendering of Ambisonic audio is employed as a spatialisation technique. A Pure Data patch was developed and a listener study was conducted to investigate participants’ experience of listening to the spatialised sonification of city air quality data. The results indicate there is a link between listener experience and quality of perception, indicating that future research should focus on developing listener skill. Spatial audio appears to have some influence on perception for musically-trained listeners, but this appears to be most effective as an extra factor supplementing the manipulation of other sonic parameters such as frequency. Binaural rendering was useful for introducing uninitiated listeners to sonification, but there was difficulty in replicating the experience of physical space.
Towards an Ex-Situ Ecologically Valid Soundscape Evaluation Methodology Using Immersive Audio
Authors: Dedousis Giorgos , Andreopoulou Areti
Published: October 2023

The design of soundscape evaluation protocols, realized either in-situ (real-world) or in laboratory conditions, and the assessment of their ecological validity is gaining interest among researchers. This paper reports on an experiment that aims to simulate the listening conditions of interacting with a travel-guide application presenting users with recreations of historically-informed soundscapes, designed to be used in-situ, in a laboratory setting. This was achieved by simulating the real-world soundscapes, which would have surrounded users of the app when used outside, from a periphonic speaker arrangement in a sound-treated space using an 2D ambisonic reproduction of the corresponding data. The evaluation results showed that participants interacted with the travel-guide content in a manner that resembled a real-life situation. That is, they were in general able to recognize and separate the auditory content of the travel-guide from that of the real-world simulated auditory space they where placed within, with some occasional confusions. This study adds to the work on the ecological validity of soundscape evaluations and tries to highlight the boundaries between the two simultaneous soundscape auditions.

Published: October 2023

Air pollution is the world’s deadliest environmental risk factor. Yet there is little effort to educate the public about personal exposure to pollutants such as particulate matter (PM). I would write it a bit different: This paper presents the design and implementation of a portable sensor box (PSB) to collect local, spatially highly resolved particulate matter data. To counteract common inaccuracies in mobile particulate matter measurements, data were aggregated and cleaned according to their location in a real-world investigation. We employed parameter mapping to develop a real-time, interactive and intuitive, yet scientifically accurate sonification of the data. The sonification was made accessible to listeners within a test area in Potsdam using a physical prototype. Through the implementation of a scripted exposure design, we investigated realistic, comparable statements and evaluation by the participants about the sonification device and the sonification.

Mitigating Legal Risks in NHAI EPC Contracts Clause Impacted by Safety Parameter
Authors: Oza Dharmesh
Published: October 2023

Abstract: Globally, disagreement, legal actions, and litigation around the development of national highways are growing daily. Numerous investigations have uncovered problems with contract formulation, contract document faults, and the preconstruction stage. The analysis focuses on five EPC contract terms related to national highway safety that carry a high risk of lawsuit. Contractors, consultants, and employees of the authority were handed a questionnaire survey as part of this investigation. Google Forms was used to gather 161 replies. Principal component analysis was used in SPSS to analyse the aforementioned data. The result shows that there are a number of crucial (high risk) contract elements in EPC contracts that could lead to litigation.
The Invisible Multilingualism of Post-Soviet Migration as a Challenge to the Theory of Translanguaging
Authors: Khilkhanova Erzhen V. , Khilkhanov Dorzhi L.
Published: October 2023

This article proposes to look at the theory of translanguaging from the angle of its universality/non-universality, bringing into discussion a new empirical case - speech strategies and practices of highly educated multilingual migrants from the former USSR and multilingual residents of modern Russia. The authors conclude that people whose socialization took place in this region are characterized by rigid ideas about the language norm and authenticity, about the “purity” of languages and high standards of speaking them. These concepts apply to all languages, both native and foreign. Traditional and conservative language ideologies are widespread in the Soviet and post-Soviet area, which is the reason why translanguaging is often perceived as careless speech, incomplete language competence. In this sense, this regional case demonstrates the non-universality of translanguaging theory and the importance of contexts in which attitudes towards multilingualism, linguistic norm and related linguistic phenomena are formed. It is primarily the western democratic, postcolonial context of translanguaging practice and theory that explains why the language attitudes and speech behavior of residents of (post)Soviet region do not fit into it.
Development of Theoretical Principles for the Study of the Linguistic Landscape in the Context of Urban Multilingualism
Authors: Ivanov Viacheslav V.
Published: October 2023

Linguistic landscape studies have become an integral part of sociolinguistics over the past twenty years. In this article, an attempt is made to study the development of their theoretical principles which have not been the subject of special research. Based on various definitions of the term “linguistic landscape” found in the works of different years the article shows the evolution of research principles from quantitative, based mainly on the statistical study of the representation of languages, to complex ones, which focus on the qualitative characteristics of languages functioning in public urban space.
The Characteristics of Societal Bilingualism in Russia: Why do Tatarstan and Yakutia Stand out?
Authors: Mikhienko Anna , Oshchepkova Ekaterina S. , Kovyazina Maria S.
Published: October 2023

Since Russia has always been a multicultural and multilingual country, there are many regions where several official languages (apart from the Russian language) coexist. Needless to say, bilingualism has its own peculiarities in each region. What would be the difference between the linguistic situation in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and the Republic of Tatarstan? In the present article, we are aiming to investigate the peculiarities of bilingualism in the two above-mentioned republics. Based on the analysis of the historical background of minority languages and current language policies, the article provides an overview of the linguistic situation in terms of language status and language use of minority languages in the educational system. It has shown that despite similar language policies, the actual situation in Tatarstan and Yakutia is different, especially in terms of preference for learning the minority language at school. It is concluded that it is necessary to develop bilingualism in the regions and organize the necessary methodological support for parents and teachers.
Transformation of National Archetypes in the New Socio-Cultural Code of the Epoch in the Novels by M. Sholokhov and I. Babel of the 1920s
Authors: Podobriy Anna V. , Sviridova Anna V.
Published: October 2023

The problem of interaction of different cultures in the modern world is very acute. It is connected not only with the multicultural space of Russia. Any country in the world is forced to solve a difficult task: how to ensure the most prosperous and fruitful coexistence and cooperation of representatives of different nationalities within the borders of the state and the national language. Culture and literature solve a similar problem. Interest in the “multicultural field” of Russian literature began to be actively formed in the XIX century, but it reached its maximum point of development in the 1920s at the “breaking of epochs”, at the time of the formation of a new socio-cultural code of the era. In the literature of the post-revolutionary years, there was active work not only on the formation of a new worldview, but also on the creation of a new social and international culture, using the most understandable and meaningful markers of this culture for the readership, i.e. a new code of the era, significantly different from its predecessor. In the article we will consider how dramatically one of the key archetypes of national consciousness (the image of a mother woman) has changed under the influence of new social relations and how this phenomenon has been reflected in the prose of Sholokhov and Babel.
Earthquake relocations delineate discrete fault network and deformation corridor throughout Southeast Alaska and Southwest Yukon

Published: October 2023

Deformation in southeastern Alaska and southwest Yukon is governed by
subduction and translation of Pacific-Yakutat plates relative to the
North American plate in the St. Elias region. Despite notable historical
seismicity and major regional faults, studies of the region between the
Fairweather and Denali faults are complicated by glacial coverage and
the remote setting. In the last decade, significant improvements have
been made to the density of regional broadband seismometer networks. We
relocate more than 5,000 earthquakes between 2010 and 2021 in the region
of southeastern Alaska and southwestern Yukon utilizing these improved
seismic networks. With reductions in catalog uncertainty, particularly
in depth, we quantify the thickness of the seismogenic layer in the
crust throughout the region, and locate seismicity on a shallow network
of upper-crustal faults. Relocated earthquakes, combined with an updated
focal-mechanism catalog, permit estimating and classifying motion of
active faults. This includes mapping the Totschunda-Fairweather
Connector fault, which plays an important role in explaining regional
deformation, and identifying new faults like the Kathleen Lake fault. We
draw similarities between our seismic observations and simplified
conceptual models of regional tectonics, which describe a dominant
transpressional regime and localized slip partitioning. Our results
support that, as deformation in the region continues to evolve, current
deformation is taking place on a well-defined network of shallow faults
in the corridor between the Totschunda-Fairweather Connector and Denali
faults.
Electrified deep convection and rare lightning events infer rapid intensification during Hurricane Nicholas (2021)
Authors: Logan Timothy , Hale Jacob , Butler Sydney , Lawrence Brendan , Gardner Samuel
Published: October 2023

Hurricane Nicholas was classified as a Category 1 tropical cyclone (TC)
at 0000 UTC on 14 September 2021 and made landfall along the upper Texas
Gulf Coast at 0530 UTC. The sustained maximum wind speed increased from
a low-end estimate of 13 m s-1 (0000 UTC 13 September) to 33 m s-1 (0000
UTC 14 September) indicating rapid intensification. Lightning activity,
monitored by the Houston Lightning Mapping Array (HLMA), developed in
the rainband at 1700 UTC on 13 September, diminished by 2030 UTC, and
re-intensified after 2200 UTC. At 2004 UTC (13 September), a curved
megaflash (~220 km) was observed in the outer rainband’s
stratiform precipitation region. Convection developed and intensified in
the eastern eyewall region by 0130 UTC on 14 September. Several
transient luminous events (TLEs) were observed in the western eyewall
region between 0230-0300 UTC with VHF source points exceeding 40 km
during a decline in lightning activity. The TLEs occurred during a
period of strong cloud top divergence resulting from complex
interactions between southwesterly low-level and westerly deep layer
wind shear. Charge analysis of Nicholas revealed an overall normal
dipole structure, while the megaflash and TLE cases exhibited inverted
charge structures. The upper-level screening and primary charge layer
heights of the TLEs heavily influenced the VHF source altitudes.
Interestingly, a surface wind gust of 42 m2 s-2 was observed near the
time of the first TLE, suggesting a second period of brief
intensification. Future investigations of TC evolution and behavior may
benefit from charge analyses.
