Authors: Choudhry Kalpana
Published: February 2023

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are one of the major concerns of the 21st century globally. Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) show a higher burden of NCDs including India. The country has launched various programs for the control and prevention of NCDs, but the organization, integration, and implementation of NCD-related health services and programs face many challenges. The objective of this review article is to study the trends and challenges in the prevention and control of common NCDs in India and find probable solutions to them. Methodology: Search on PubMed and Google Scholar databases was done. Out of 387 relevant articles, 50 were included. Websites of various institutes and government portals were searched. Data were compiled and studied for identifying the challenges and their solutions. Results: The challenges were organized at four levels – community, facility, health system and policy, and research as per the WHO Innovative Care for Chronic Conditions frameworks (WHO ICCC) such as identification of eligible beneficiaries, shortage of infrastructure and workforce, lack of skills and need for training, inadequate data, poor surveillance, and monitoring systems and limited research. Conclusion: India’s growing NCD burden needs to be addressed by health-promoting partnerships, policies, and programs. To create successful national, multisectoral program for prevention and control of NCDs, high-level political commitment, intersectoral coordination, and community mobilization is required. Learnings from various other programs could be incorporated for effective management of NCDs in India. A more scientific research-based focus needs to be given to AYUSH and other non-medical interventions.

Frequency of transnational trends and Pakistani commercial cinema: A Study on Foreign Talent, Foreign Locations and Obscenity in Pakistani Movies
Authors: Ramzan Adnan
Published: February 2023

With an increase in focus on globalization, the cinema industry is also facing pressure from its audience to bring in transnationalism in their contents. Transnationalism in cinema gives diversity of experience resulting in better quality movies and increased viewership. Movies around the globe are adopting transnationalism while in Pakistan it is considered a comparatively new idea. This study has tried to make sense of the presence of transnational trends in Pakistani cinema with an emphasis on three variables, (namely, foreign talent, foreign location, and obscenity). Talent from different nationalities can bring in diverse experience on the screen and behind the lens. Similarly, the selection of multination locations also brings in more interest of viewers and obscenity, though it is a very abstract idea, also attracts viewers with different social and cultural backgrounds. A total of 12 Pakistani movies were selected and content analysis was conducted to look for the presence of foreign talent, location and obscenity resulting in transnationalism. A monitored and controlled data analysis of conveniently sampled movies has been provided along with possible reasons of the existence of these transnational trends. The conclusion of our findings and possible recommendations are also added which emphasize that cultural whitewash should be avoided in the name of transnational trends.

Authors: Raja Muhammad Yasin Sultan , Zafar Muhammad Rehan , Rana Ayesha
Published: February 2023

Over the years Pakistan has faced many internal and external threats. India always considered Pakistan as rival and made all out contributions to exacerbate the problems for Pakistan in all the domains of Politics and security. This paper will analyze the Indian militarization program involving huge weapons acquisition and signing different arms deals to unsettle Pakistan. Under the Government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we have seen the rise in the procurement of Military weapons coupled with Hindutva nationalistic propaganda and the threats hurled at the security and national integrity of Pakistan. This process of militarization has significantly shifted the balance of power in India's favor, resulting in increasing aggressiveness on India's part, as seen by the 29 February 2019 Balakot strike. These all actions will bring more instability and destruction in South Asia which is already under severe economic crises especially post covid-19.

Published: February 2023

Reading is vital for acquiring any knowledge. Even the Holy Qur’an emphasises it. Thus, the importance of reading cannot be underestimated. Teaching reading in an EFL context is a challenging task for a teacher, especially when they are not equipped with relevant techniques. Teaching reading in isolation may lead to no direction, thus failing to achieve the target. The study explored the effect of web-based teaching reading in English by integrating cultures. The study employed a mixed method of research, carried out on samples of teachers and students at the Applied College, King Abdulaziz University (KAU) located in Jeddah city of Saudi Arabia. The tools used were two self-developed questionnaires for the teachers and the target students, respectively. Content validity was tested before the actual administration of the tool. The findings indicate that technology integration helps resolve issues related to reading skills in English language teaching in the Saudi context.

Published: February 2023

Keberadaan Pedagang kaki lima (PKL) adalah sebuah keniscayaan dan mustahil dihilangkan dari kegitan ruang terbuka publik, terutama dikawasan komersial perdagangan, dimana mereka tidak hanya sebagai pelengkap tetapi juga sebagai unsur teatrikal kehidupan publik kota. Hal ini disadari oleh perintah Kota Solok khususnya Dinas Perdagangan Koperasi dan Usaha Kecil dan Menengah. Konsep optimalisasi penataan ruang terbuka publik pada dasarnya tidak akan dapat menampung semua pedagang kaki lima yang ada. Pedagang kaki lima merupakan suatu yang tidak dapat dihindari dalam proses urbanisasi dan Pemerintah Kota Solok. Keluarnya kebijakan pemerintah daerah yang berupa Peraturan Daerah Nomor 5 tahun 2017 pada tanggal 16 Mei 2017 menjadi payung terhadap penataan dan pemberdayaan pedagang kaki lima di wilayah Kota Solok dan Dinas Perdagangan, Koperasi dan UMKM menjadi badan yang berwenang terhadap pelaksanaan peraturan daerah tersebut. Hal pertama yang dilakukan Pemerintah Kota Solok dalam pengelolaan penataan pedagang kaki lima dengan menyediakan kawasan serta kantong-kantong pedagang kaki lima. Terlepas dari kendala dan upaya yang telah dilakukan terhadap permasalah pedagang kaki lima bahwa kunci penataan pedagang kaki lima justru terletak pada cakupan wilayah penataan yang komprehensif dan tidak terpaku pada satu titik saja. Penataan yang dilakukan secara berkesinambungan dan terintegrasi antar satu dengan yang lainnya. Sesuatu yang menarik dalam program penataan pedagang kaki lima di Kota Solok bahwa penataan tidak terpaku pada penataan fisik semata melainkan juga melakukan penataan dalam hal sarana prasarana penunjang disekitar kawasan serta kantong-kantong pedagang kaki lima.

Background: The addition of an addiction medicine consult service has been shown to improve mortality and decrease hospital costs but its impact on the proportion of patients discharged against medical advice (DAMA) and in-hospital initiation of medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) has not been examined.

Methods: A retrospective before-after cohort study was performed at an urban, academic medical center between January 1, 2015 and November 1, 2019. We included adult patients with infective endocarditis and injection drug use determined by admitting diagnosis ICD-9 or ICD-10 codes or documentation within the history section of electronic health recordEHR. Our institution implemented a formal addiction medicine consult service on July 1, 2018. We determined the proportion of patients DAMA and the proportion of patients started on MOUD among patients in the pre-intervention (i.e. hospitalized before July 1, 2018) and intervention (i.e. hospitalized July 1, 2018 or after) groups.

Results: A total of 171 patients among hospitalized patients with injection drug use-associated infective endocarditis were included with 119 patients in the pre-intervention group and 52 patients in the intervention group. There was no statistically significant difference in patients DAMA [19% vs 15%, absolute risk difference 4.6% (95% confidence interval -8.6% to 17.7%)] between the intervention and pre-intervention groups. However, there was an increase in the proportion of inpatient MOUD initiation in the intervention group compared to the pre-intervention group [56% vs 21%, absolute risk difference 35% (95% confidence interval 19% to 50%)].

Conclusions: The initiation of an addiction medicine consult service was associated with a higher proportion of MOUD initiation but there was no statistically significant association with the proportion of patients DAMA.

Виконання функцій охорони та оборони державних кордонів України в умовах воєнного стану тісно пов’язано зі здійсненням перевезень особового складу та різного роду вантажів. Результати аналізу наукової літератури дозволяють зробити висновок, що дійсно існують об’єктивні невідповідності між практичними потребами щодо покращення ефективності використання автомобільної техніки органами ДПСУ під час здійснення перевезень в умовах воєнного стану та можливостями наявної науково-методичної бази у цьому напрямі. Під ефективністю використання автомобільного транспорту слід розуміти ступінь використання його потенційних можливостей щодо перевезень вантажів. Ефективність використання автомобільного транспорту органах (підрозділах) Держприкордонслужби напряму залежить від двох загальновідомих коефіцієнтів: коефіцієнта використання вантажопід’ємності та коефіцієнта використання пробігу. Тому далі в дослідженні більш детально розглянуто шляхи підвищення даних показників, а відповідно підвищення ефективності використання автомобільної техніки органами ДПСУ під час здійснення перевезень в умовах воєнного стану в цілому.

Avaliação do desempenho de ferramentas de metal duro e Cermet no torneamento do aço ABNT 1045
Authors: Aleixo Guilherme Souza
Published: February 2023

A análise do desgaste no processo de usinagem é de grande importância, pois impacta diretamente nos custos de produção, logo, mensurar as variáveis do processo é fundamental para compreender o comportamento e influência dos parâmetros de entrada e saída. Busca-se, portanto, compreender os fenômenos essenciais que a variação dos parâmetros de entrada (velocidade de corte, avanço, material da ferramenta de corte (cermet e metal duro) e geometria do quebra-cavaco (LP e MP), causam nos parâmetros de saída (forma do cavaco, rugosidade, e desgaste da ferramenta) durante a operação de torneamento a seco do aço ABNT 1045. Os resultados demonstraram que, em relação à rugosidade, o avanço mostrou-se como o único parâmetro influente na análise estatística, entretanto, a geometria do quebra-cavaco também apresentou influência, pois o comportamento da rugosidade para as ferramentas com quebra-cavaco para acabamento foi parecido. No que se refere à forma dos cavacos, as análises revelaram que o nível mais elevado de avanço gerou cavacos com as maiores espessuras. Além disso, o material da ferramenta se mostrou influente sobre a forma do cavaco. O grau de recalque diminuiu em função do aumento da velocidade de corte e avanço. Por fim, observa-se que o mecanismo de desgaste predominante foi a adesão, e a ferramenta que apresentou melhor desempenho foi a de metal duro com quebra cavaco.

Duhan je biljna kultura koja se ističe brzinom i količinom apsorpcije teških metala iz tla, a naročito kadmija. Konzumiranjem duhana, teški metali se akumuliraju u organizmu ljudi, bez mogućnosti da se iz njega odstrane na bilo koji način, za razliku od nekih drugih biljnih kultura (npr. rajčica) kod kojih se ti metali mogu odstraniti iz organizma putem probavnog trakta. Autohtone hercegovačke sorte duhana (Ravnjak, VH i VH32) dugo su bile tretirane kao jedne od najkvalitetnijih, a za čiji rast i razvoj su potrebni specifični agroekološki uvjeti koji su karakteristični isključivo za Hercegovinu. U ovom istraživanju se prati translokacija Cd u sustavu tlo-duhan-dimni kondenzat kod duhana koji se danas uzgajaju na području BiH. Kako ovakvo ili slično istraživanje nije nikada prije rađeno na hercegovačkim duhanima, to su dobiveni rezultati uspoređivani s rezultatima dobivenim kod sorti Virdžinija i Berlej, koje su također bile predmetom istraživanja, a za koje postoje i literaturni podaci uzeti iz predhodnih svjetskih istraživanja. Uzorci tla i duhana uzeti su s 16 lokacija s područja cijele BiH, tj. sa svih lokaliteta na kojima se danas uzgaja duhan u BiH. Od najkvalitetnijih srednjih insercija, ručno su pravljene cigarete koje su kasnije popušene na pušačkom stroju. Na sadržaj Cd ispitivani su uzorci tla, duhana i dimnog kondenzata, a iz statističke analize dobivenih rezultata, može se zaključiti da postoji značajno kretanje kadmija iz tla preko biljke u dimni kondenzat.

The research included seven autochthonous apple varieties in the area of Tomislavgrad, Stipanjići locality, during 2018, which represent the natural wealth of our country. In seven autochthonous apple varieties: Petrovača bijela, Budimka, Ljutika-Divljaka, Ledarica, Bedrica, Ljepocvjetka-Cvjetača and Jonatanka, phenological characteristics were monitored and analyzed with morphological-pomological properties of fruits. The following phenological characteristics were monitored: flowering phenophases, germination of the first fruits, fruit growth, fruit ripening and full maturity. Five characteristics for the description of apple fruits were determined using the UPOV descriptor for apples (UPOV, 2003). The results of monitoring the morphological and pomological properties of fruits show that the lowest average fruit weight was in the variety of Cvjetača (58,38 g), while the highest average of fruit weight had variety Bedrica (140,59 g). In the result is evident that the lowest value of fruit width had variety Cvjetača (53,72 mm), and the highest had variety of Jonatanka (70,83 mm). The Cvjetača variety had the lowest average fruit lenght (47,24 mm), while the Bedrica variety had the highest (59,72 mm). The Budimka variety had the highest average stem length (2,73 cm), while the Divljak variety had the lowest average stem length (1,43 cm). The Jonatanka variety had the largest average cup concavity and was (1,28 mm), while the Petrovača bijela variety (0,41 mm) had the lowest average cup concavity. Based on the this research, the examined autochthonous apple varieties can be used a valuable genetic material in breeding programs, and can be used to create new varieties, as well as for propagation in commercial plantations.
