Pulmonary Function Studies in Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Authors: Kim Man Jae , Oh Sang Jin , Park Hi Myung
Published: March 2022

Pulmonary function studies were made on 292 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. All patients were divided into four groups, namely, those with normal ventilation (NV) restrictive ventilatory insufficiency (RVI) obstructive ventilatory insufficiency (OVI) and mixed ventilatory insufficiency(MVI) based upon vital capacity, timed vital capacity and air velocity index , and the functional characteristics of each group were compared.The incidence of NV has progressively decreased and that of MVI has progressively increased as the extent of the disease process progressed, as expected, and this was particularly true in female patients. However, the incidence of OVI was higher among male patients whereas that of RVI was higher among female patients regardless of the extent of the disease process. Vital capacity was within normal range in patients with NV and OVI but it was significantly decreased in those with RVI and MVI. Timed vital capacity in those with NV and RVI showed no deviation from that of normal value but significant decrease was noted in those with OVI and MVI. Air velocity index was within normal range or even higher than normal in patients with NV and RVI but it was lower in those with OVI and MVI. However, even in patients with OVI and MVI the mean values of air velocity index were well above the lower Iimit of the normal, suggesting that this test is not a very sensitive one for the detection of air trapping. Maximal breathing capacity was within normal limits in patients with NV but modcrately decreased in the remaining groups, particularly in those with MV I. Also notcd was a greater decrease in maximal breathing capacity in patients with RVI in comparison to those with OVI. thus suggesting that a decrease in the vcntilating area of the lung rather than airway obstruction playcd a more significant role in the production of ventilatory insufficiency in pulmonary tuberculosis. Changcs in breathing reservc ratio and ventilatory factor according to each type of ventilation were very similar to those of maximal breathing capacity.And the decreases in breathing reserve ratio and ventilatory factor were caused in most of cases by a decrease in maximal breathing capacity. Air trapping index and Leslie’s index not only showed no close correlation to timed vital capacity and air velocity index but even some controversy was present. lt was felt that air trapping index andLeslie's s index were not valuable tests for the diagnosis of air trapping. Changes in capacity ratio according lo each type of ventilation were very similar to those of air velocity index. Minute ventilation, oxygen consumption, ventilation equivalent and oxygen diffusion were approximate of the same range regardless of the type of ventilatory insufficiency.

Authors: Alam DM
Published: March 2022

As automotive seating comfort is expected to see an upward trend, virtual comfort analysis is expected to pick up its importance and Body Pressure Distribution (BPD) is foreseen to be the flag bearer in this race towards seat comfort. The shift of focus from BPD testing to virtual comfort analysis has been a positive sign for market. This paper will discuss in detail several different human seating postures during BPD measurement and their influence on seat BPD with the help of virtual comfort analysis tool. This knowledge will be helpful to put more emphasis on several key aspects for capturing BPD maps during real BPD testing (This paper does not discuss any physical testing). When the real-time-tested BPD map would be produced repeatedly with less variation with the analytical BPD map, a comfortable seat design would be achieved in a shorter period in terms of production with greater accuracy
Geometric Derivation of Camera Equations
Authors: Funk James
Published: March 2022

Photogrammetry, camera matching, and model-based image matching are commonly used techniques to analyze photographs and video for accident reconstruction and other forensic applications. Investigators are often tasked with taking measurements from photographs or determining speed from a video. All such calculations are based on fundamental geometric principles governing image projection inside a camera. Most treatments in the literature express the image projection equations in matrix notation rather than closed-form solutions. The purpose of this paper is to present a geometric derivation of the image projection equations in closed form that can be readily applied by a qualified investigator without the need for specialized software. In addition, a simple brute force optimization procedure is described to perform camera matching and model-based image matching. Examples are provided to demonstrate the method.

The Southern African Lepidoptera Conservation Assessment (SALCA) was a collaborative venture between the Lepidopterists’ Society of Africa (LepSoc Africa), the Brenton Blue Trust (BBT) and the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI), and formed part of the National Biodiversity Assessment (NBA). SALCA was founded on the importance of Lepidoptera both ecologically and as biodiversity indicators and the proven expertise of the participants during the Southern African Butterfly Conservation Assessment (SABCA). The main outcomes of the SALCA project are presented and discussed here.The SALCA tool, a custom-designed interactive distribution database, enabled high quality data to be derived so that accurate conservation assessments could be produced in accordance with IUCN methodology. The Red Lists of SALCA and SABCA facilitated the first opportunity to calculate the Red List Index (RLI) for South African butterflies during the period from 2012–2018. Other metrics required for the NBA included protection level and threats analyses. A further outcome was the critical habitat mapping for butterflies, which formed part of a screening tool implemented by SANBI, to ensure that land use changes did not cause any further loss of butterfly biodiversity.A comprehensive distribution database was developed for South African moths, enabling data to be analysed so that moth species potentially threatened could be short-listed for further investigation.Geographical hotspots and ecosystems (vegetation types) containing butterflies of conservation concern are highlighted. The societal, economic and human wellbeing benefits of conserving Lepidoptera are identified. Responses by LepSoc Africa to the increasing pressures on South African Lepidoptera biodiversity, are also reported on and discussed. The significant outcomes of SABCA and SALCA are benchmarked against a well-known European butterfly atlasing and conservation assessment project.The 165 SALCA Red Lists and conservation assessments are presented at the end of this publication.

Published: March 2022

Introduction: Opium and its derivative addiction are one of the most prevalent addictions in western Rajasthan, because it is easily available and is being used openly in social programs as the culture of the same. In western Rajasthan, mainly Doda poppy, opium milk, smack, tramadol, etc. are major forms of opium-derived addictions. Withdrawal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, body ache, sleeplessness and flu-like symptoms begin, these symptoms can grow severe enough to necessitate emergency medical attention, and in extreme situations, they might have life-threatening consequences for the user as a result of respiration depression, and pupil dilation in the later stages. The assessment was based on Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (cows) before and after the treatment. Intervention: Efforts have been applied to depict 8 cases of opium addiction in form of series who have been treated with Ahiphenmochanadi vati in the dose of 250 mg twice a day and Sameergaja kerari rasa in the tapering method (Padanshika Krama) starting with the dose of 375 mg along with panchakarma procedures, Shirodhara with til tail, Abhayanga, and Swedana with Mahanarayan Tail and Dashmool kwath respectively for a period of 1 month. Reduction in cows scale was observed, about 75-80% of symptoms subsided in all cases and the results have been reported very encouraging within a period of twenty to thirty days. Conclusion: Altogether, multimodal Ayurveda treatment can be an effective and safe solution for smack addictions.

Automation of the storage of operational information of the collector-beam system for collecting products for its control
Authors: Polischuk Yury , Goncharova Yana , Gapeeva Oksana
Published: March 2022

Within the framework of this work, a model for storing operational information of a collector-beam system for collecting products from the Orenburg gas condensate field for its management is proposed. A feature of the proposed model is its presentation as a graphic-dynamic system with the ability to store the performance characteristics of the wells included in it, and the history of upgrades of the main structural elements. The use of a single model to describe the operational information of various acquisition systems allows minimizing the likelihood of errors in operational data due to the limitations defined by the model and increasing the speed of their processing. All of the above implements the possibility of synthesizing effective management decisions in the operation of gathering systems, the consequence of which is to extend the life of the field and minimize operating costs. Also, the proposed model can be used in the implementation of a decision support system for collector-beam systems for collecting products.
COVID-19 Associated Loss of Smell and Taste Treated with Gabapentin
Authors: Lucke DO Jean-Paul
Published: March 2022

Throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic, the symptoms of loss of smell and taste have been commonly encountered by healthcare professionals, and in fact, have become an important screening tool. By some estimates, 96% of COVID-19 patients experience these symptoms to various degrees [1]. While the exact mechanism of cellular events that lead to loss of smell and taste is largely unknown, research is underway to better understand the process. The senses are usually regained with time but often can take months, and in some instances, be permanent [2]. Nearly one out of ten patients have not fully recovered by two months and treatment options so far are limited [3]. The use of a low dose of Gabapentin could be a possible treatment for anosmia and ageusia in COVID-19 patients.

On Strange Memory Effects in Long–term Forecasts using Regularised Recurrent Neural Networks
Authors: Lerke Arthur , Heßling Hermann
Published: March 2022

Recurrent neural networks (RNN) based on a long short-term memory (LSTM) are used for predicting the future out of a given set of time series data. Usually, only one future time step is predicted. In this article, the capability of LSTM networks for a wide look into the future is explored. The time series data are taken from the evolution of share prices from stock trading. As expected, the longer the view into the future the stronger the deviations between prediction and reality. However, strange memory effects are observed. They range from periodic predictions (with time periods of the order of one month) to predictions that are an exact copy of a long-term sequence from far previous data. The trigger mechanisms for recalling memory in LSTM networks seem to be rather independent of the behaviour of the time-series data within the last “sliding window" or “batch". Similar periodic predictions are also observed for GRU networks and if the trainable parameters are reduced drastically. A better understanding of the influence of regularisations details of RNNs may be helpful for improving their predictive power.

Published: March 2022

The need to improve on a system must begin with glare lapse(s) in the existing system yearning for redress. The desire for a much better way of going about the business evokes intensive search for possible available alternatives. The process ultimately leads the relevant stakeholders to discovery or fashioning of a pragmatic model that will not only serve the purpose more effectively and efficiently but will also have the approval of the majority of the stakeholders and stand the test of time. This study provided an overview of contributions made so far on land information management systems, with the sole purpose of ascertaining the progress recorded and inherent challenges to the existing system. Nigerians suffer unnecessary delays in obtaining land title and land title information. The scenario has caused failure and abandonment of many developmental projects. A more robust and integrated land information management system that will provide timely land information for the stakeholders in Nigeria is imperative.

Published: March 2022

Purpose: To report a case of unilateral orbital lipoma in a 22-year-old woman after an autologous fat graft.Case summary: A 22-year-old woman visited our clinic with the chief complaint of persistent ptosis of the left upper eyelid for 6 months. Five years prior, she had undergone double eyelid surgery on both eyes, in which autologous fat grafting was performed. She had experienced swelling of the left upper eyelid that began 6 months prior to her visit. Examinations of her visual acuity, intraocular pressure, pupil reflex, extraocular movement, and fundus revealed no abnormal findings. Sagittal images from orbital contrast computed tomography scans revealed a translucent lesion in the posterior space of the orbital septum of the left upper eyelid. Histological examination of excisional biopsy specimens showed mature adipose cells surrounded by a fibrous capsule. The patient remained disease-free at the 3-month follow-up.Conclusions: Lipoma can occur both during and after autologous fat grafting. It is important that the patient is well-informed of this issue before surgery and that the appropriate treatment is provided when it occurs.

Out of 7 billion peoples, only 1.2 billion peoples are getting fresh water for drinking. The scarcity of water exerts strong effects around the world. The world is working to develop appropriate, cost-effective methods to provide high purified water for drinking purposes. Water contains suspended particles, micro-organisms, bacteria, organic and inorganic compounds as impurities. For purification, lots of methods are available which are widely used all around the world. This research is based on the research and development of water treatment plants which is cost- effective and provides safe drinking water for household purposes. Solar de-salination is one of the best energy efficient methods used for water treatment. In this process, solar energy is utilized to purify saline water. Minerals and salts were quickly removed as a brine solution and vapors condensed and collected to get the product. The energy requirement is low as compare to other methods. The construction of the plant was simple and cheap. This process removes 99.5 % of salts from the water. This research is successful in achieving the objectives and goals of getting potable water that meets the standards of WHO. This research also focuses on a large scale for water treatment as it is cost-effective and can reduce the shortage of freshwater around the world.

Authors: Khalid Mohamed Abdalla Ali
Published: March 2022

Background and Objective: A total of 86.9 million persons worldwide are infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng). Although Gram-stained smears (GSS) provide a timeand cost-saving alternative to conventional laboratory tests, their global uptake partly depends on their performance. This study aimed to meta-analyze the diagnostic accuracy of GSS to screen for Ng. Materials and Methods: A literature search was conducted using the MEDLINE (1980 to 2020). Studies were included if they employed GSS to detect Ng in humans and compared the results with reference tests. Results: Eleven studies were reviewed and meta-analyzed and stratified by specimen type (Gram-stained urethral smears and Gram-stained endocervical, urethral swabs and urine smears.) and reference test type (culture method or NAAT). Sensitivity was similarly high in GSS versus NAAT (93% [CI, 64% to 99 %]) and GSS versus culture methods (87% [CI, 74% to 94%]), followed by Gram-stained urethral smears (97% [95% CI, 86% to 100%]) and Gram-stained endocervical, urethral swabs and urine smears (81% [CI, 67% to 90%]). Specificity was also high in GSS versus culture methods (98% [CI, 95% to 100%]) and GSS versus NAAT (94% [CI, 73% to 99%]), followed Gram-stained endocervical, urethral swabs and urine smears (98% [CI, 93% to 99%]) and Gram-stained urethral smears (96% [CI, 78% to 99%]). Conclusions: Data suggest that GSS have the highest accuracy when investigated against reference culture methods, and Gram-stained urethral smears have the highest accuracy, followed by Gram-stained endocervical, urethral swabs and urine smears. Given their accuracy, convenience, and quick turnaround time, GSS may be useful in expanding first-line screening Ng.

Diskursus hukum keuangan kian beragam. Sangat disesalkan tidak diikuti oleh alternatif yang relevan untuk menyelesaikan problem keuangan negara tersebut. Belum lagi peraturan perundang-undangan dan kebijakan yang mengatur keuangan negara di Indonesia cenderung mengabaikan doktrin badan hukum. Terkhusus badan hukum perdata yang memiliki orientasi bisnis. Sehingga menimbulkan perasaan tidak nyaman (insecure feeling) untuk memajukan bisnis yang mengakar (deep rooted business practice) yang dicita-citakan menjadi sokoguru bagi kemajuan perekonomian nasional. Konsekuensinya, konsep keuangan negara menjadi tidak rasional sebab peraturan perundang-undangan dan kebijakan yang dibangun tidak sehaluan dengan teori hukum yang seharusnya. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif, dengan metode pendekatan yuridis normatif yaitu penelitian yang dilakukan terhadap data yang bersifat sekunder dengan mempelajari dan mengkaji asas-asas hukum peraturan perundang-undangan. Urgensi penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui resiko dari perluasan lingkup keuangan Negara dan memberikan manfaat pada pemerintah dalam melaksanakan pengelolaan keuangan negara. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah kewenangan yang dilakukan oleh Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan untuk memeriksa Badan Usaha Milik Negara bertentangan dengan konsep Badan hukum. Sebab Undang-Undang Badan Usaha Milik Negara telah mengatur yang berhak untuk memeriksa laporan tahunan Persero adalah auditor eksternal yang ditetapkan oleh Rapat Umum Pemegang Saham.

Authors: Arhin Kwadwo , Frimpong Albert Opoku
Published: March 2022

In the late of December 2019, a new coronavirus (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV 2) emerged from the city of Wuhan, China and was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020 after it had spread to many countries across the globe. On February 28, 2020, the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) reported its first case in Nigeria, and it has since spread to all countries in SSA. Several public health and medical care measures were rolled out by many countries to stem the tide of the spread at the height of the pandemic, between February 28, 2020 and February 28, 2021, period covered by this study. This paper evaluates the levels of health system efficiency of the COVID-19 public health measures and medical care services and their determinants across Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries using country-level data for those countries. The data was analyzed using bootstrap data envelopment analysis (DEA) and other advanced econometric analyses that produce robust estimations of the relationship between health systems efficiency and their determinants. The general finding of the study suggests that there is more room for health systems in SSA to improve their technical efficiency in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. The most important determinants of health system efficiency in the fight against the spread of the virus were GDP per capita, population density, temperature levels, and quality of governance. Adequate health system preparedness and human resource strategies geared towards recruiting and/or retaining well-qualified and experienced healthcare workers to provide professional services would prove critical in containing pandemics of this nature.

Managing Crises by Way of Ritualization and Exception in Roman Testamentary Succession Law
Authors: Willems Constantin
Published: March 2022

In principle, a Roman citizen could make a will only when observing a set of strictly ritualized testamentary formalities. However, in times of crises, sticking to time consuming and labor intensive rituals entails high transaction costs, while at the same time the threats experienced as a consequence of the crisis at hand increase the individual need to stipulate one’s last will. In this paper, it will be argued that throughout the centuries, from archaic times to late antiquity, Roman testamentary succession law looked for a compromise between ritualization and exception, thus managing crises in an effective way.
