Authors: Gumenyuk Aleksandr , Polyanskikh Irina , Gordina Anastasiya , Averkiev Igor , Buryanov Aleksander
Published: August 2024

In regions with negative average daily temperatures, the development of the construction sector, including transport infrastructure facilities, requires increasing the efficiency of heating systems and deicing systems, while reducing the material consumption of their production. In the study, samples with dimensions of 70x70x70 mm and products with dimensions of 500 × 500 × 50 mm were made from electrically conductive coarse aggregate concrete. Additives of industrial soot suspension - 7% and carbon fiber - 1% were used as modifiers. The additives were introduced individually and in combination. The developed compositions ensure the mechanical compressive strength of concrete on the 28th day of more than 40 MPa. The combined use of modifiers allows the surface of the product to be heated from 21°C to 34°C within 30 minutes. Physicochemical studies of the compositions conducted after 3 cycles of heating and cooling showed optimal homogenization of carbon-containing materials and the absence of chemical interaction between carbon fiber and components of the mineral matrix. The obtained indicators of electrical and mechanical properties prove that it is possible to manufacture products based on the optimal composition that provide repeated heating and are optimal for use in the improvement of urban areas.

Authors: Mehroz Mahe , Moiz Mohammed
Published: August 2024

This study focuses on the comparative examination of ultra high-performance concrete with and without coarse aggregate using the particle filling method. This research study examines the rheological and mechanical properties of two high-performance concrete construction mixtures, one containing no coarse aggregate and the other containing coarse aggregate below 12.5 mm. The behavior of each mixture in its new state was examined by changing the water cement ratio as 0.26, 0.28 and 0.3. The two minerals used in the mixture are 10% micro silica and 5% metakaolin by weight instead of cement, and sand (M-Sand) and quartz sand produced as quality materials were used. Quartz sand 60 mesh, 100 mesh, 200 mesh etc. Available in colors. In order to prevent cracks in the concrete mixture and increase the ductility of the concrete, 1% steel fiber was used in both mixtures. Some properties of new ultra high-performance concrete (UHPC) were examined using a test rig frequently used to determine the properties of self-compacting concrete. Measure sufficient capacity, excess capacity and capacity of new functional concrete (UHPC). The samples are then cast and tested for compressive strength. It has been observed that the compressive strength of the composite material without coarse aggregate is 5% to 10% higher than that of the composite material with coarse aggregate.

Published: August 2024

Due to urbanization and globalization, many rural areas are becoming urban. But there are still many isolated rural villages in the Eastern world including Sri Lanka. Many features are still intact in those isolated areas. Therefore, it is timely and important to discuss such remote areas' ecological and social relationships and how people's lives are built on those characteristics. The main objective of this research is to study the environmental ethics and traditional knowledge system developed through environmental and social concepts in Galmudunagama village located in Hasalaka Divisional Secretariat Division of Kandy District, Sri Lanka. The study was mainly based on primary data and collected using structured questionnaires, interviews, and participant observation methods. In this study, qualitative data analysis has been done on all the data obtained through 35 questionnaires. According to the study, it is possible to understand the traditional and isolated environmental values of the Galamudunugama area and the process followed by the people who lived there in water consumption. It was revealed how the villagers have worked to build a self-sufficient economy and an environment-friendly agriculture, and that as a social corporation, there is a process associated with the natural environment from birth to death. In addition, it became clear how people socialize in a knowledge system specific to this isolated area and how to protect the natural environment through an oriental knowledge system. Finally, I suggest that this study recognizes the value of traditional knowledge systems in such rural areas of Sri Lanka and uses them to create future eco-friendly societies.

Aim: The aim of this study was to insist on operatory indications and to analyze the results of thyroidectomy in case of Graves’ disease. Patients and Method: We retrospectively reviewed the medical charts of 39 patients with Graves’ disease who were treated by thyroidectomy in our department between July 2004 and June 2009. We studied reasons for surgery, post-operative thyroid function and surgery-related complications. Results: The most common reason for surgery was failure of pharmacotherapy (54%). We realized 26 total thyroidectomies (66,7%) and 13 sub-total thyroidectomies (33,3%). After a mean follow-up of 28 months, thyroid function was normal in 54% of patients after sub-total thyroidectomy, with 46% of hypothyroidism. We experienced no recurrence of Graves’ disease. The different complications were: 1 post-operative respiratory distress, 2 hematomas (5%), 4 temporary laryngeal recurrent nerve paresis (10%), 6 temporary hypoparathyroidism (15%). Conclusion: Both total thyroidectomy and sub-total thyroidectomy are safe procedures regarding post-operative complication rate. Nevertheless, with total thyroidectomy procedure, there is no recurrence, it improves the orbitopathy and it should be advised in any patient with Graves’ disease and a thyroid nodule since those patients are at an increased risk for malignancy. Keywords: Graves’ disease, thyroidectomy.

Material and Methods: It was a prospective, descriptive study of 8 months length from July 1st 2009 to February 28th 2010. It concerned all the patients who were admitted in emergency or planed in the department during the study period. The classification of the American Society of Anesthesiologists served us as guide in the appreciation of the patient’s clinical status. Were included in the study all the patients dead of surgical pathology in the per operative period and in a occurrence time-limit of 30 days in pre operative and post operative period as well as those patients dead in the department of intensive care unit through surgery recommendation. Results: The overall frequency of death was 9.9%; the patient’s mean age was 42 years old and a sex-ratio of 1.3; according to the origin, 75.7% of patients were from urban zone; workers were the most concerned with 36.7%; 48.6% of patients were not schooling. Forty percent of the patients were admitted 10 days after the beginning of the disease; only 35.7% of the patients were managed on the first day; the mortality by peritonitis was 38.6%. The death was due to polyvisceral failure in 54.3% of case, to hemodynamic shock in 4.3% of cases and to septic shock in 41.4% of cases. Conclusion: Perioperative mortality allows assessment of the quality of care in surgery. Several factors contribute to its occurrence, dominated in our context by the delay in the consultation, the lack of health insurance coverage, qualified personnel in emergency and obsolescence of technical platform.

Published: August 2024

Goal: To discuss the diagnostic features, etiological factors and treatment options of acute intestinal intussusceptions in adults. Patients and methods: Retrospective study of 4 cases of acute intussuscep- tions in adults treated over 13 months. Results: The average age of our patients was 46 years (range from 38 to 60 years). The sex ratio was equal. In all cases, the history and circumstances of discovery favored another surgical pathology. The hemody- namic status was stable (n=4), while abdominal signs of suffering were encountered. The abdomen radiograph without preparation for 3 patients indi- cated air-fluid levels (n=2), gray (n=2) and pneu- moperitoneum (n=1). The echography, scanner and gastro-esophageal fibro copy showed a retention of a dead egg (n=1) and a nonspecific mass (n=1), a tumor of the right colic flexure and a stenosis of the pylorus (n=1). Through biology, a leukocytosis was found in 2 cases. The exploration found an isolated intussusceptions (n=1) or associated with a patholo- gy (n=3). For 3 patients, the necrosis was already there and the treatment was a resection - anastomosis. A desinvagination associated with gastro-enteroanastomosis was done for one patient. Post-surgery was uneventful in 3 patients and the average length stay was 10,4 days. One death occurred. Conclusion: The acute intestinal intussusceptions in adults should bring suspicion on an underlying obstruction to the intestinal transit. The diagnosis is often confirmed during surgery. The resection-anas- tomosis is the best treatment option due to the late diagnosis. Keywords: intussusceptions, intestinal necrosis, resection-anastomosis

The discovery of foreign objects into the rectum still arouses particular interest among practitioners. We report a case of intra-rectal foreign body and perform an update on the diagnosis and management. This was a patient aged 34 with no psychological history known, received for intermittent abdominal pain, coupled with minimal rectal bleeding, and a background of chronic constipation. The ano-perineal examination allowed discovering a gaping anus, and the digital rectal examination found a hard object, mobile, with regular contours. Radiography of the abdomen without preparation allowed recovering an abnormal image of the rectum, following the shape of a foreign body (bottle). The diagnosis of intra-rectal foreign body was made. The circumstances and the mechanism have not been avowed by the patient. The extraction was performed manually by lower delivery, under general anesthesia. The follow were simple and the patient was placed exit one day after, refusing a psychiatric follow. The intra rectal foreign bodies are a rare event in our practice. Their diagnosis may be easy because of the radiology correlated with clinical, even if the circumstances and the mechanism are often unacknowledged in our socio-cultural context. This early support can prevent complications. Keywords: intra-rectal body, digital rectal examination, proctoscopy, psychotherapy

Published: August 2024

Introduction: Cervical esogastric anastomotic leakage is essentially manifested by the outcome of digestive fluid at the cervical incision. It represents the most common surgical complication after transhiatal esophagectomy. The treatment is not well codified. The aim of this study was to describe these anastomotic leaks and how they support and evolutionary complications. Patients and methods: This was a prospective study of 11 cases of cervical oesogastric anastomotic leak selected in 17 cases of transhiatal esophagectomy with cervical oesogastric anastomosis. This study was conducted in the General Surgery department of the Teaching Hospital, Aristide Le Dantec in Dakar for a period of 05 years. The parameters studied were: nutritional status before surgery, pathology and tumoral stage, the anastomosis techniques, onset and duration of evolution of these fistulae and their manage- ments. Results: The mean hemoglobin was 13.8 g/dl. All patients had received end-to-side anastomosis gastroeso- phageal taking the entire esophageal and gastric wall into two hemi-running sutures with 3/0 vicryl. A drainage cer- vical anastomosis was put in place with a Delbet blade. The median of onset of these fistulas was 8.9 days. The product of the fistula was gastric content in all patients. All patients were fasting, empirical antibiotic treatment and colostomy bags were used to collect the products. The mean duration of the fistula was 7.8 days. There was a case of mortality from mediastinitis on day 6. These fistulas were complicated by three cases of anastomotic stricture. Conclusion: Cervical anastomotic oeso-gastric fistulas are very common. Diagnosis is mostly clinical. The water-soluble barium swallow is of great diagnostic value. Treatment is medical in the majority of case. Prevention requires good preoperative nutritional preparation. Keywords: anastomotic leakage; transhiatal esophagectomy; cervical anastomosis

Objectives: Describe the epidemiological, clinical and prognostic extractions instrumental deliveries in Dakar, at the HIS hospital of Senegal. Patients and methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study of all cases of operative deliveries performed at the Maternity of the IHS over a period of three years from 1 January 2006 to December 31, 2008. Results: 173 operative deliveries were performed among 12,504 deliveries, an incidence of 1.38%. There were 85 forceps (49.1%) and 88 cups (50.9%). Overall there was a relative decline in the number of operative deliveries over the years: 87 in 2006, 48 in 2007 and 38 in 2008. The epidemiological profile of parturient concerned is that of young patients with a mean age of 25 years, primiparous (60%), carrying a pregnancy to term (mean gestational age of 39 SA). Varieties previous positions were the most frequent with order of frequency, the left anterior occipitoiliac (LOA) (61.3%) and right anterior occipito-iliac (OIDA) (24.8%). Clinical pelvimetry objectifying a pool feasible in the majority of parturient (89.6%). By cons, it was noted 18 cases of moderately narrowed basins (10.4%). Most parturient were admitted in second stage of labor (74.6%) and average length of stay in the delivery room was 3 hours 31 minutes. Concerning indications of instrumental delivery, maternal fatigue was the most frequently found (32.9%), followed by uterine scar (24.9%) and acute fetal distress (21.4%). All of forceps (n = 85) was performed by doctors. By suction against 25 applications (14.4%) were performed by midwives. The forceps was most often by direct occipito-pubic position, the extraction position occipito-sacral involved 8% of cases. We observed 7 cases of failed forceps (8.2%) leading to resort to caesarean section. Maternal complications (10, 4%) were dominated by incomplete perineal tears. No cases of maternal death were recorded. Neonatal complications were represented by 17 cases of caput which 14 were rated with the waning of a vacuum extraction, 7 perinatal deaths related to fetal distress were recorded in our series, a neonatal mortality of 0.6 ‰ live births. Conclusion: The instrumental extractions are less practi- ced in our maternity hospitals. Their bad reputation is for something, but it is not always justified, because compli- cations are rare and minimal if the indications are comfor- table and experienced operator. It therefore appears impor- tant to reposition these instruments still retain their place in obstetric practice in Africa.

Patients and methods: This was a retrospective study conducted in the ENT department of the Military Hospital of Ouakam of Dakar over a period of nine years (from 1 January 2004 to 31 December 2012). Results: Sixty-two patients were operated on for a tumor or inflammatory disease of the salivary glands. The submandibular gland was the most frequently affected with 38 cases (61.3%), followed by the parotid with 20 cases (32.2%), the sublingual gland (3 cases) and the accessory salivary glands (1 case). Surgery was dominated by sub- mandibulectomiesin 40 cases and parotidectomies in 20 cases. Two patients had postoperative radiotherapy and 1 patient had neoadjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative radiotherapy. Transient facial nerve was the most common complication (3 cases). There were 6 cancers (9.7%) and the most common histological types were adenoid cystic carcinoma (2 cases) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma (2 cases). After a mean follow up of 22 months, we recorded one recurrence and 2 deaths. Conclusion: Surgical pathology of the salivary glands is dominated by tumors that reach more often the parotid gland. Inflammatory conditions reach preferentially submandibular gland and sialolithiasis and allergic conditions are predominant. Key-words : salivary glands, tumour, inflammatory disease

Purpose: To report 3 cases of adult intussusception with small bowel tumors treated in a west african cancer institute and to make a review of the literature. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective study that included all cases of intussusception with surgical exploration showed a small bowel tumor in adults between January 2007 and June 2014. We studied the epidemiology, diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic. Results: There were 3 patients aged 22, 42 and 48. The average age was 37 years. The average delay was 06 days evolution. History of surgery is found in two patients, an amputation for sarcoma of the leg and a surgery for varicocele. Clinical and imaging assessment had found an acute intestinal obstruction in 2 patients and a sub-acute one in 1 patient. Only surgical exploration allowed to recover the small bowel tumor responsible. The tumor was unique in 2 patients and multiple in a patient. The gesture was a resection and anastomosis performed in all cases with no complications. The histological type was in two cases a benign tumor and in one case a non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the small bowel. The follow- distance were marked by a death non related to the intussusception or the small bowel tumor. Conclusion: The intussusception in adults on small bowel tumor is rare affection. It is unknown clinically and sometimes imaging. Surgical exploration often used to diagnose and remove the obstacle. The cause is usually benign. The prognosis is generally good.

Qualification Methodology for the Double Side Printed Substrate for Hybrid Microcircuits Application
Authors: Babu A. Penchala , Himamol S. , Andhiwal Ajay , Singh Kamaljeet
Published: August 2024

Hybrid Microcircuits (HMCs) are always preferred over discrete versions due to small size, less weight, better performance and high reliability for space applications. Double side printed substrates realized using Thick film screen printing and Printed Through Hole (PTH) processes are being used in HMCs in order to achieve further miniaturization. This article details the newly developed innovative Thick film process technology involving drilling of holes and filling the through hole with gold conductive paste to connect the front and rear side of conductor patterns on an alumina substrate. The biggest challenge in the realization of double side printed substrates is creating multiple via holes and filling them with conductor paste. In addition, the limited ability to achieve substrate integration and uniformity pose additional challenges that require optimization of process parameters. A comprehensive test plan created to qualify this innovative method in terms of quality and reliability suitable for the aerospace industry is also presented.

Authors: Alsubhi Waleed Obaidallah
Published: August 2024

This study examines the translation strategies employed by Saudi football clubs Al Hilal and Al Nassr on their Arabic and English X accounts. Using a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative content analysis and qualitative discourse analysis, the research analyzed tweets over a 6-month period to evaluate translation accuracy, cultural adaptations, and engagement metrics. Findings revealed that both clubs predominantly use literal translation, but also employ cultural adaptation, paraphrasing, omission and addition strategies. Al Hilal's translations were found to be slightly more accurate than Al Nassr's. Culturally adapted posts generally received higher engagement from international audiences. The study identified challenges in translating sports-specific terminology and cultural references. While the clubs showed similar overall translation approaches, differences emerged in their handling of culturally-specific content. The research provides insights into effective bilingual social media strategies for football clubs seeking to expand their global reach, highlighting the importance of balancing linguistic accuracy with cultural sensitivity in sports communication.
The Prophetic Approach to Civilized Coexistence with the Other
Authors: Husban Abdullah Muhammad Al , Al-Dakhil Muhammad Abd Al-Rahman
Published: August 2024

This research aimed to know the concept of coexistence in Islam, especially in relation to the civil society built by the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, in Medina, which represents the model structure of civilizational coexistence with others.  Moreover, it raises a set of questions about the concept of coexistence, the concept of the other, and the reality of coexistence in the Medina society (the society built by the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him), in addition to the controls and forms of this coexistence. Therefore, the importance of this research is evident in clarifying modern concepts related to the relationship with others in civil society. This is done through the Prophetic applications in the Islamic community in Medina. The research clarifies the nature of relationships within the Prophet’s community and the forms of cultural relationship with others. Furthermore, it highlights the extent of our need for guidance and to follow the approach adopted by the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, in civilizational coexistence with others. The research is based on the  inductive analytical approach in examining the hadiths and Prophetic events that focus on clarifying the concept of coexistence with others, the controls and determinants of coexistence with others in the Prophetic civil society, and explaining the impact of coexistence on civil society. The results showed that the civil society founded by the Prophet, PBUH, in Medina was characterized by great civilizational principles that demonstrate justice, mercy, and good human behaviours. These principles reflect the need to highlight the Prophetic values of civilized coexistence that prevailed in civil society and how to deal with others in the current era, especially in light of the emergence and spread of ideologies of hatred and racism that have generated many negative convictions about the Islamic approach to coexistence with others.

This paper explores the relationship between diversity, inclusion, and artificial intelligence (AI) in multicultural workplaces and markets. Growing recognition of the value of diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives is changing organizational practices globally. Despite progress, challenges such as unconscious bias, resistance to change, and difficulty in measuring progress still exist.This study is based on a comprehensive literature review that adheres to academic ethical standards. These findings highlight the potential of AI to improve recruitment processes, personalize marketing strategies, and develop inclusive technologies. However, challenges such as bias in AI algorithms and limited data diversity need to be addressed.The paper emphasizes the need for ethical AI frameworks, diverse representation in AI development, and transparency in the use of AI to promote justice. AI has the potential to foster a more equitable society by encouraging diversity and inclusion. Further research is needed to explore the long-term impact of AI on diversity and inclusion and to develop ethical AI frameworks tailored to different industries and cultural contexts.The study also explores how AI can support D&I initiatives by providing data-driven insights, automating processes, and offering personalized interventions to reduce bias and increase inclusivity. By reviewing recent research and case studies, this paper offers practical recommendations for leveraging AI in D&I efforts, aiming to build a more inclusive and equitable workplace culture.
