Inversion du sens, nouveau référentiel ou confusion des objectifs et des moyens dans le champ de l’animation ?
Authors: Bacou Magalie , Dansac Christophe , Gontier Patricia , Vachee Cécile
Published: September 2022

On peut s’interroger sur le sens qu’ont les modifications relatives au statut des animateurs travaillant en accueil de loisirs dans le contexte socioéconomique actuel. Dans le monde de l’animation, depuis la substitution du contrat d’engagement éducatif (CEE) à l’annexe II à la Convention collective, on note la volonté des représentants des fédérations de maintenir une distinction entre occasionnels, nommés « volontaires », et professionnels. Cette volonté est néanmoins freinée dans sa mise en œuvre par le droit du travail national, mais surtout européen. Quel sens donner aujourd’hui à l’appel des fédérations en faveur d’un statut de volontaire dans les accueils collectifs de mineurs à caractère éducatif ? L’analyse des discours révèle une rhétorique normative proche de celle utilisée pour le dispositif du service civique volontaire (SCV). Tous deux concernent les jeunes et on retrouve les mêmes valeurs, l’idée d’engagement et d’intérêt général. Dans les deux cas, le volontariat s’inscrirait dans le courant de l’éducation populaire et de l’économie sociale et solidaire.
L’animation : quel sens pour les sociétés périphériques
Authors: Duranty Malik , Labourg Claudine , Nestorine Nicole
Published: September 2022

Les modèles de l’intervention sociale et de l’animation socioculturelle ont pour caractéristiques de partir de diagnostics et d’états des lieux dans le but d’élaborer des projets, des plans d’action, des dispositifs d’accompagnement et de programmation afin de trouver les solutions les plus adaptées aux difficultés que rencontrent les individus et les collectivités. Or, en situation postcoloniale, marquée par des structures informelles vernaculaires et formelles importées de la métropole, on observe au sein des dispositifs d’animation et d’intervention des tensions relatives aux luttes institutionnelles se confondant aux luttes partisanes et aux luttes interprofessionnelles doublées de luttes interpersonnelles. Les auteurs s’interrogent dans cet article sur le sens de l’animation socioculturelle et de l’intervention sociale dans des sociétés en transition ainsi que sur la manière dont les animateurs et les intervenants s’inscrivent dans la recherche de sens au sein de ces sociétés.

Stratégies et pratiques construites par les étudiants d’animation socioculturelle pour la promotion de la participation de la population âgée
Authors: Gama Ana , Simões Ana , Teodoro Ana
Published: September 2022

Pour nombreuses personnes âgées leur participation à la société est de plus en plus moins évidente et moins réussite pendant la vieillesse. Aux animateurs socioculturels, qui interviennent auprès de cette population, se pose le défi de contribuer pour maintenir et promouvoir la participation des personnes âgées aux activités, aux projets et dans la société. Dans ce texte, on analyse les stratégies et les pratiques que des étudiants de licence en animation socioculturelle rapportent, sur la promotion de la participation auprès de la population âgée. Les mémoires de stage élaborés par 22 étudiants ont été analysés; quelques étudiants ont aussi répondu à un questionnaire ou à un entretien. Les données recueillies permettent d’identifier 11 stratégies de promotion de la participation des personnes âgées ainsi que d’en classer les types de participation décrits. Ces données permettent aussi une discussion autour des représentations de la participation au sein de l’animation sociale et socioculturelle.
Animation culturelle intergénérationnelle

Published: September 2022

Ce texte met en lien l’animation socioculturelle et le concept d’intergénération d’abord d’un point de vue théorique, puis illustré par l’action puisant à l’animation d’une association pour l’accompagnement social à domicile. L’apport théorique s’appuie sur le concept de multigénérativité et les quatre modèles d’interaction entre les générations de Höpflinger pour mettre en lumière en quoi la posture et les rôles inhérents à l’animation socioculturelle conduisent la profession à agir dans le champ émergeant des interactions entre générations. L’illustration proposée montre comment l’animation fait d’une transaction économique une action communautaire dans un esprit associatif.

Authors:   Department of Anesthesiology, San Mateo Medical Center, San Mateo, California, Maguey Jesús Rocha
Published: September 2022

Traumatic bilateral pedicle fractures of the lumbar spine are rare. Some pedicle stress fracture cases have been described previously; most of them associated to spinal procedures having had different stabilization or fusion techniques, osteoporosis, secondary to unilateral spondylolysis or due to certain athletic activities. In these types of fractures, fatigue fractures which occur in normal bone that is subjected to repetitive abnormal stress or insufficiency fractures which are due to normal stress on a structurally defective bone are mostly observed. Traumatic cases with L5 pedicles fracture have been previously described but these are commonly associated with facet injury and severe spondylolisthesis.

The acid-base characteristics of the catalyst material are frequently linked to catalytic activity. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been tested as catalysts for a variety of processes. Based on the observed performance in diverse catalytic processes, Cu-BTC (with a well-defined crystalline structure) and Fe-BTC (with a gel-like porous structure) have both shown the presence of Lewis surface acid sites. In this study, researchers used Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) and n-butylamine thermal desorption analysis to assess the acid-base characteristics of both materials. Using acidic, basic, and amphoteric molecules, IGC experiments can access the acid-base characteristics of the material surface. The n-butylamine thermal desorption measurements, on the other hand, allow quantification of those acid and basic sites from the n-butylamine desorption curves of a sample previously saturated with that probe molecule. The Lewis acid properties obtained by both methodologies showed to be more pronounced for the Fe-BTC MOF sample. The IGC measurements exhibited values of acidity constants (KA) of 0.81 and 0.60 for Fe-BTC and Cu-BTC, respectively. Furthermore the n-butylamine thermo desorption experiments indicate total acidities of 2.06 and 0.49 mmol g−1 for Fe-BTC and Cu-BTC, respectively.

Effect of Coriolis Force on the Numerical Estimation of Water Level Elevation Due to a Catastrophic Cyclone along the Coast of Bangladesh

Published: September 2022

A two-dimensional vertically integrated shallow water equation in the Cartesian coordinate model is used to estimate the water level considering the impact of Coriolis force. The shallow water model equation was discretized by a finite difference method (FDM). Consider the forwarding of time and central space as a moderator of this discretization. The model approximates coastal boundaries, small islands, small rivers and complex tributaries by an accurate stair step representation. The model equations are solved by a static semi-implicit finite difference technique where a structured Arakawa C-grid system is used as the condition. A one-way nested scheme technique is used to incorporate complex land-sea interfaces such as small offshore islands and water depths with sufficient accuracy as well as decreasing the computational cost. A stable tidal condition was created by applying M2 tidal forcing with the largest tide along the southern open boundary of the Bay of Bengal. The model uses the Coriolis force as an external force that can affect water buoyancy. The main task is to analyse the effect of Coriolis force on water buoyancy. The described model was applied to simulate sea-surface elevation associated with the severe cyclone in April 1991 that strike on the east coast of Bangladesh. We have found a significant impact of Coriolis force on surge height. However, the model gives an accurate numerical estimate of surge height.

In this investigation, the mechanism of mass (moisture and fat) transfer during deep-fat frying of robo (fried melon cake) was carried out. The plots of dimensionless concentration ratios against time were used to determine moisture transfer parameters including moisture diffusivity, moisture transfer coefficient, moisture transfer Fourier number, moisture transfer Biot number and activation energy and fat transfer kinetic parameters such rate constants and activation energy at different frying temperatures of 140, 155 and 170 0C. All moisture parameters increased linearly with frying oil temperatures except moisture transfer Biot number which deceased linearly with increase in temperature with correlation coefficient (R2) ≥ 0.99. There was also positive linear relationship between fat transfer rate constant and frying temperatures (R2 ≥ 0.99). An Arrhenius type of relationship was found between temperature and the effective moisture diffusivity and fat transfer rate constant (R2≥0.99) with activation energies values calculated as 25.66 and 42.18 kJ/mol, respectively.  Both moisture loss and fat desorption after initial adsorption of 60 seconds were adequately modeled by the first-order kinetics adopted with high correlation coefficient (R2) value and were time and temperature dependent as revealed by Arrhenius analysis performed on the experimental data.

Authors: EMAZIYE PETER OTUNARUKE , EMAZIYE OGHENEKOME
Published: September 2022

The main objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of savings on agricultural development. Data were obtained with the aid of structured questionnaires. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis models. Multi-stage sampling methods were adopted in a random selection of 312 respondents. Most respondents were married with a moderate family size of 10 persons with illiterate male-headed households that were mostly aged (46 years). Most respondents had 19 years of farming experience mostly engaging in crop production with a low annual income of N69,798 ($183.68) which is $0.503 per day less than the $1per day poverty line index. Education of children was the main objective of savings but inadequate funds to save was a major constraint. Most respondents experienced low agricultural output which retard agricultural development. Regression analysis results revealed that household size affects savings negatively while annual income, the sum of borrowed money and interest rate affect saving positively. The study recommends that credits should be made available in form of soft loans and respondents should be encouraged to save towards farm investment that will generate income.

Background: Gallbladder volvulus is a rare emergency surgical condition that is usually misdiagnosed as acute cholecystitis and most of the time it is diagnosed intra-operatively Purpose: to report a rare case of GBV. ase report: a forty-six years old Ethiopian male patient presented to Yirgalem General Hospital and Medical College with right upper quadrant pain, nausea, and vomiting of two days duration. Conservative treatment was devised for acalculous acute cholecystitis. Nonetheless, on the seventh day of onset of symptoms conservative treatment failed and cholecystectomy was done for gangrenous GBV. The patient improved on the ninth post-operation day and was discharged. Conclusion: Although the typical patients for GBV are elderly females and thin kyphotic, it can occur at any age. Therefore, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all patients presented with clinical features of acute cholecystitis. Moreover, early urgent surgical interventions will decrease mortality and morbidity.

Published: September 2022

Çerkeslerin anavatanları Kafkasya’dan Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’na gelişleri sürecinin hangi kavramlar üzerinden ifade edilmesi gerektiğine dair tartışmalar, hadisenin yaşandığı 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında olduğu gibi, günümüzde de devam etmektedir. Literatürdeki çalışmaların genelinde, Çerkes nüfus hareketini ve sonuçlarını açıklamak için farklı anlamlar ifade eden kavramlar eş-zamanlı olarak kullanılmaktadır. Nüfus hareketinin gerçekleştiği yıllarda yayımlanan İngiliz gazeteleri incelendiğinde de, farklı anlamlar ifade eden kavramların eş- zamanlı olarak kullanıldıkları görülmektedir. Literatürdeki bu kavramsal düzensizlik, hadisenin bir ‘sürgün’ mü yoksa ‘soykırım’ olarak mı değerlendirilmesi gerektiği tartışmasında da görülür. ‘Sürgün’ ve ‘soykırım’ tartışmalarının dönemin İngiliz kamuoyundaki yorumlanışı ise iki kanaat üzerinden gerçekleşir; (1) Rusya, toplu ölümleri öngörerek Çerkesleri Osmanlı’ya ‘sürgün’ etmiştir, (2) Rus işgalinin ve toplu ölümlerin yarattığı panik, hadisenin kitlesel ve ‘plansız bir göç hareketine’ dönüşmesine neden olmuştur. Ancak nüfus hareketinin gerçekleştiği yıllarda İngiliz kamuoyunda ‘etnik temizlik’ ya da ‘soykırım’ kavramları kullanılmamıştır. Söylem analizi yöntemi kullanılarak hazırlanan bu çalışmanın amacı, İngiliz kamuoyunda, ‘Çerkes nüfus hareketi’ sürecine dair söylemin, hangi kavramlar üzerinden oluşturulduğunu açıklamak, bu sayede günümüzde devam eden ‘sürgün’ ve ‘soykırım’ tartışmalarına katkı sunmaktır.

Authors: ADAK Mutlu
Published: September 2022

Türkiye’de gelişmekte olan “Tarihî Coğrafya” disiplini hakkında yapılan çalışmaların sayısı azdır. Özellikle Anadolu’nun Orta Çağ’daki coğrafyası hakkında çalışmalar çok sınırlıdır. Bu nedenle Orta Çağ’da Anadolu’nun coğrafya kaynaklarının tespiti ve değerlendirilmesi önem arz etmektedir. Çalışmadaki amaç Dânişmend Gazi Destanı’nın tarihî coğrafya kaynağı olarak kullanılabileceğinin tespitidir. Zira Anadolu’nun Orta Çağı’na özellikle Türkler tarafından fethinin gerçekleştirildiği dönemlere dair ülkemizde tarihî coğrafya kaynağı çok sınırlıdır. Bunun sonucu olarak dönemin coğrafî özellikleri hakkında bilinenler yetersiz kalmaktadır. Dânişmend Gazi Destanı edebiyat ve tarih disiplinleri açısından birçok çalışmaya konu olmuştur; ancak bugüne dek destanın tarihî coğrafya disiplini açısından bir değerlendirmesi yapılmamıştır. Bu çalışmada Dânişmend Gazi Destanı’nda verilen bilgilerden hareketle Orta Karadeniz Bölgesinin (özellikle Tokat, Amasya, Çankırı ve Çorum illerinin) XI.-XIII. yüzyıllar arasındaki coğrafî özellikleri hakkında bilgi verilecektir. Özellikle deprem, sel baskını, bitki türleri, önemli yerleşim merkezleri, yer adları, yerleşmelerin fiziki durumları, yerleşmelerde topoğrafyanın etkisi, bitki ve hayvan türleri hakkında Dânişmend Gazi Destanı önemli veriler sunmaktadır. Bu veriler kaynakların sınırlı olduğu (Orta Çağ’da) Anadolu’nun tarihî coğrafyası hakkında Dânişmend Gazi Destanı’nın da bir başvuru kaynağı olabileceğini göstermektedir.
LİPTON ÖRNEĞİYLE KÜLTÜR KODU VE GLOKAL PAZARLAMA İLİŞKİSİ

Published: September 2022

İçine doğduğumuz ve bir üyesi/aktörü olmanın güven ve sevincimizi yaşadığımız kültür ve paylaşılan ortak anlamlar-semboller olarak kültür kodu pazarlama alanında dikkate değer unsurlar olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Global markalar, ürünlerinin satışa sunulduğu yerel pazarlarda insanlara daha kolay ulaşabilmek ve en çok tercih edilir olmak için kültür kodlarından yararlanmakta, globali ve lokali (evrenseli ve yereli) birleştiren bir yöntem olarak glokal reklam yoluna gitmektedir. Çalışmamızda kültür kodu ve glokal reklam kavramlarına değinildikten sonra global bir çay ürünleri markası olan Lipton’un -çayın oldukça rağbet gördüğü ve kültürünün oluştuğu- Türkiye pazarındaki reklamlarında kültür kodlarından veya glokal reklam yolundan nasıl yararlandığı incelenmektedir. Bu saptama ve incelemeler, reklam filmlerinde, kültürel verilerin doğru bir şekilde okunup- kullanılıp-yansıtılması ve “kültürel çuvallama”ların önüne geçilmesinde dikkati çeken bir adım niteliğindedir.

Extreme drought conditions have been a major limiting factor in legume production worldwide. The development of drought-resilient crops should help mitigate adverse effects of unfavorable environmental conditions such as drought; however, initial characterization is necessary to ensure that the germplasm has the essential genetic variation for drought tolerance. In this study, a field trial was conducted to characterize drought response and potential drought tolerance of 100 mungbean genotypes through the evaluation of several physiological parameters and seed yield. The genotypes were subjected to terminal drought stress before flowering (~ 30 d after planting), reducing soil moisture content (SMC) from 25.0–30.0% to 13.0–15.0% during treatment imposition. Significant differences were observed between mungbean genotypes for total chlorophyll content (Chl), total scavenging activity (SA), electrolyte leakage (EC), and chlorophyll fluorescence (Fv/Fm) during drought. Furthermore, by transforming each physiological parameter into principal components (PCs) via principal component analysis (PCA), five distinct clusters were generated. Based on their physiological response and seed yield, Clusters I and II were identified as potential drought susceptible group, Cluster III was moderately susceptible, and Clusters IV and V were identified as the potential drought-tolerant group. Correlation analysis and PCA also demonstrated the significant relationship among several key traits for drought tolerance such as chlorophyll content, electrolyte leakage, and antioxidant scavenging to chlorophyll fluorescence – suggesting the suitability of fluorescence parameter in mungbean mass screening for drought tolerance. Although weak correlation between physiological parameters to seed yield was present (0.3 <│r│< 0.5), correlations among each physiological parameter were moderately strong (0.5 <│r│< 0.7). The findings suggest that a physiological characterization during initial screening for drought tolerance was an effective approach in identifying possible sources of drought tolerance traits complementary with yield- related traits. The evaluation of chlorophyll fluorescence, scavenging activity, electrolyte leakage, and chlorophyll content was enough to differentiate and characterize the drought response of several mungbean genotypes and will be vital in the development of climate-resilient crops.

Infanticide is common among non-human primates. There are a few cases of infanticide reported in wild groups of the genus Macaca, but in Macaca fasicularis, it is only reported under captive conditions. The present report describes the first case of infanticide observed in wild M. fascicularis in Pangandaran Nature Reserve, West Java, Indonesia, in which an adult male was seen carrying and repeatedly biting an infant. The male attacked a female (presumably the infant’s mother) who approached him. We discuss several explanations for the observed infanticide from the perspectives of sexual selection and socio-pathology.

The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) which was developed by Saaty is a decision-making tool in the year of 1970s. The system is able to solve the complex analysis which could not be performed by the human brain. In this project, the AHP system is chosen to select a better insulating oil for power transformer oil application since the insulation is the most important part of a transformer. In this research method based on the AHP technique, there are six criteria are involved in the model, namely breakdown voltage, dissipation factor/tan delta, pour point, kinematic viscosity, density, and flash point. While, the given alternatives are palm oil, canola oil, palm fatty acid ester (PFAE) oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, and soybean oil, respectively. A spreadsheet software application (Microsoft Excel) was employed in this study. As the result, it is found that the PFAE oil is the best insulating oil that able to be used in a real power transformer oil application. All requirements as insulating oil for transformer oil of PFAE oil are met significantly.
Comparison of the Posterior and Paraspinal Approaches for the Treatment of Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Pisuitthanakan, MD Satapong
Published: September 2022

Purpose: Burst fractures cause over half of all thoracolumbar fractures, for which the posterior approach has been considered the standard approach. The paraspinal approach has proven safe and effective for thoracolumbar injury. This study aimed to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes between the two approaches.
Methods: This randomized controlled trial included 24 patients with isolated thoracolumbar burst fractures between July 2016 and August 2018. Patients were categorized into two groups: paraspinal and posterior approaches. The primary outcome was postoperative pain on days 1, 2, 3, and 14. The corrected Cobb’s angle; operation time; intraoperative blood loss; opioid usage on days 1, 2, and 3; Oswestry Disability Index (ODI, Thai version); and percentage reduction loss at 3 months were secondary outcomes. Participants were assessed on post-intervention days 1, 2, 3, 14, and 90.
Results: The mean visual-analog-scale (VAS) scores on postoperative days 1, 2, 3, and 14 (8.6 ± 0.8, 7.1 ± 0.6, 5.5 ± 1.3, 5.5 ± 0.8); intraoperative blood loss (395.8 ± 113.7 mL); opioid usage on days 2 and 3 (13 ± 1.5 mg, 8.3 ± 1.9 mg); and postoperative ODI (23.5 ± 3.5) were significantly lower (P<0.05) in the paraspinal-approach group than in the posterior-approach group (mean VAS on postoperative days 1, 2, 3, and 14 [9.2 ± 0.5, 8.3 ± 0.3, 7.5 ± 0.8, 6.7 ± 0.5]; intraoperative blood loss [590 ± 70.1 mL]; opioid usage on days 2 and 3 [15.8 ± 1.9 mg, 11.7 ± 1.6 mg]; and postoperative ODI [40 ± 4.2]). There was no statistical differences in operative time, corrected Cobb’s angle, and percentage reduction loss.
Conclusions: The paraspinal approach is significantly advantageous over the conventional posterior approach regarding postoperative pain, intraoperative blood loss, opioid usage, and ODI at 3 months, thus corroborating the minimally invasive concept.

Authors: Sungkhun, MD Pawaris
Published: September 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the midterm outcomes of open-wedge high tibial osteotomy without bone graft (OWHTO) in patients with advanced medial compartment arthritis.
Methods: From January 2014 to December 2020, all patients treated with OWHTO had medial compartmental arthritis. Twenty patients underwent OWHTO. Clinically, we evaluated the Oxford Knee Score (OKS), Knee Society Score (KSS), and range of motion (ROM) at the five years follow-up.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 52.65±4.88 years. All clinical outcomes gradually improved from the postoperative period to the final follow-up period. The mean follow-up duration was 5.05±0.43 years. Pre-operative OKS was 20.85±3.47; Post-operative OKS was 36.70±2.16; P = 0.034. Pre-operative KSS was 35.8±20, Post-operative KSS was 53.2±20.2, and P = 0.02. Pre-operative ROM was 100.59±11.22; Post-operative ROM was 120.57±11.06; P = 0.044.
Conclusions: OWHTO has good clinical outcomes. Thus, the results of this study suggest that OWHTO may be a good alternative treatment for medial unicompartmental arthritis.

Authors: Rojcharoenngam, MD Pranpawee
Published: September 2022

Purpose: To compare the results between minimally invasive anterolateral and conventional posterior hip approaches for hemiarthroplasty in hip fractures.
Methods: The elderly patients who had undergone hip hemiarthroplasty for hip fractures in Maharaj Nakhon Si Thammarat Hospital, were randomly divided into two groups: minimally invasive anterolateral and posterior approach groups Data were collected from March 2020 to November 2021, which included the duration of the surgery, length of the surgical wound, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative days of walking with a walker, morphine dosage for pain relief, and postoperative complications.
Results: No significant difference (P-value > 0.05) was found between the baseline data of patients in both the groups, which included sex, age, body mass index, underlying musculoskeletal disease, and drug usage. The minimally invasive anterolateral approach group used an average surgical time of 53.48 ± 8.22 min, while the conventional posterior approach group required 65 ± 20.41 min; the length of the surgical wound was 7.78 ± 0.87 and 13.78 ± 1.37 cm, respectively; the volume of intraoperative bleeding was 82.17 ± 48.94 and 195.65 + 163.24 ml, respectively; the postoperative days of walking with a walker were 3.09 ± 0.92 and 6.59 ± 2.52 days, respectively; and the postoperative analgesic doses of morphine were 6.59 ± 2.80 and 11.09 ± 3.89 mg, respectively. The blood transfusion was required in 4 patients in the minimally invasive anterolateral approach group, while it was required in 14 patients in the conventional posterior approach group. Statistically significant (P-value < 0.05). Postoperative complications included, prosthetic hip joint dislocation in a patient in each group and sciatic nerve neurapraxia in a patient in the conventional posterior approach group.
Conclusions: Hip hemiarthroplasty with the minimally invasive anterolateral approach in elderly patients with hip fractures was found to be superior to the conventional posterior approach.
Development and validation of a system for the prediction of excipient-excipient incompatibility using machine learning tools
Authors: Hamid Junaid Ul , Gupta Sunil
Published: September 2022

The importance of pharmaceutical excipients in the creation of any dosage form is critical. These excipients are occasionally to blame for product underperformance and dosage form deterioration. Product deterioration and underperformance could be attributed to incompatibilities between drug and excipient or sometimes excipient and excipient either due to the presence of reactive impurities in the excipients or a reaction between the functional groups present on the excipients. Although, the drug and excipient incompatibilities are monitored and reported, excipient-excipient incompatibilities are overlooked due to a paucity of literature. Pharmaceutical companies used to work in a controlled environment (compatibility tests between excipients to determine the best excipients for dosage form creation) and utilize mitigation measures to suppress any incompatibilities between excipients when necessary. In the current paper, we propose a system to predict excipient-excipient incompatibilities that can occur during dosage form development, possible incompatibility reactions, as well as a potential way to counter these incompatibilities by suggesting alternative excipients based on the descriptor knowledge of the excipients. The system was developed and validated using SOM and random forest algorithms. Two systems were developed based on incompatibility and property relationship, this approach provides a wide scope of our system to select compatible excipients in place of incompatible ones. Two systems predicted top 10 key incompatibilities and properties which cover the maximum range of the pharmaceutical research and development. After the validation using random forest, our system was able to find the structural components responsible for these top incompatibilities and properties. The prediction accuracy was found to be >85%. This was confirmed by preparing confusion matrix of the top incompatibilities and properties and assigning values of 0.5 to predict the outcome. The excipients with probability of ≥0.5 were considered active (possessing incompatibility or property) and the excipients with probability
