Soil Loss Models for Somalia
Authors: MOHAMED Abdinasir Abdullahi , BAŞAYİĞİT Levent
Published: December 2023

Soil erosion stands as a significant environmental concern impacting both agricultural productivity and natural ecosystems across various regions worldwide. The soil losses attributed to erosion exacerbate concerns about food security and land degradation in Somalia, a country already grappling with numerous socio-economic challenges. This study aims to evaluate the erosion risk in Somalia by examining potential techniques that offer valuable insights for sustainable land management and resource planning. Emphasizing the utilization of remote sensing data, geographic information system (GIS) techniques, and hydrological modeling, the research highlights the exploration of erosion risk factors and their spatial distribution nationwide. Topographic data, soil properties, land use and land cover data, precipitation models, and vegetation indices could be employed to identify erosion-prone areas and sensitive points in Somalia. Furthermore, analyzing historical erosion data can aid in calibrating and validating predictive models. Continuous monitoring of sensitive areas over the years is recommended, considering the role of human activities such as ongoing deforestation, poor agricultural practices, and excessive grazing, which contribute to escalating erosion risks on Somali lands. Decision-makers should focus on methodologies that can be utilized to implement efficient erosion management techniques ensuring environmental sustainability across Somalia.
Impact of the antifreeze composition on the risk of corrosion occurrence in copper structure elements of the HVAC systems
Authors: Turlej Anna , Giemza Bolesław , Skolniak Marta
Published: December 2023

The operation time of HVAC systems in industry and construction engineering is counted in decades. Corrosion protection of these systems is crucial for their long-term and failure-free operation. In the case of working mediums based on glycols, corrosion protection is provided by anti-corrosion additives, which are the component of antifreeze. The defence mechanism consists in the interaction of these additives with metal surfaces, with whom they contact by creating durable and efficient layers separating their surfaces from aggressive environmental factors. Observation of the structure of protective layers and corrosion micro changes was possible due to the application of microscopic imaging. The main building material in heat exchangers is copper. Studies have shown that the dilution of antifreeze may result in the formation of insufficiently clear protective layers on the copper surface, which may intensify the negative effects of fluids on copper elements of infrastructure HVAC systems.

Authors: Ansari M A , Rana K S
Published: December 2023

A field experiment was conducted at IARI, New Delhi during 2009 and 2010 to study the effect of cropping systems, transpiration suppressants and nutrient management on productivity and moisture-use-efficiency of pearlmillet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) – pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] intercropping system under rainfed conditions on a sandy loam soil. There was significant superiority in yield attributes as well as yield of pearlmillet and pigeonpea under sole cropping as compared to their intercropping system. Pearlmillet equivalent yield and land equivalent ratio was significantly higher with intercropping system (2:1 ratio). Intercropping system recorded the higher moisture-use-efficiency and economics as compared to either of the sole cropping. Rate of moisture use was more in sole pearlmillet (3.92 mm/day) than sole pigeonpea and intercropping system. The results showed significant improvement in all yield attributes and yield as well as moisture use and economics due to spray of transpiration suppressants over the control under inadequate moisture conditions. The total number of nodule and nitrogenase activity significantly differed in pigeonpea crop under different fertilizer doses as compared to control. Among fertility levels, application of 50 kg N + 17.2 kg P/ha, followed by 25 kg N 8.6 kg P/ha + BF resulted in better performance of crops over other treatments.

Published: December 2023

An experiment was conducted to develop highly efficient and economically viable protocol for rapid in vitro multiplication of gerbera cv. cabana using capitulum as explant during 2005–07. Among the two stages initially used for culture initiation, capitulum explants cultured at immature stage responded better than the mature stage. Best establishment of immature capitulum explants was obtained on modified MS medium supplemented with 10 mg/l BAP and 1 mg/l IAA. The type and concentration of cytokinin also showed profound effect on proliferation. Better proliferation of quality shoots was obtained on BAP supplemented medium than the medium containing kinetin. The maximum numbers of quality shoots were obtained on MS medium containing 1 mg/l BAP and 0.1 mg/l IAA. Half strength MS medium containing 1 mg/l IBA was optimum for root induction. This protocol can produce 85000– 430312 healthy, true-to-the-type plants per year from a single capitulum. Hence, the above protocol can be of high economic interest to the growers opting tissue culture as commercial venture.

Türk hukuk düzeninde ve ticari hayatında yer alan en önemli kambiyo senedi türlerinden biri çeklerdir. Bulunduğu ülke ekonomisi üzerinde oldukça büyük etkileri olabilen ve kişiler arasında ödeme aracı niteliğinde olan çekler, kişilerin finansal olarak varlığını sürdürmeye yönelik kolaylık sağlaması ve ticari hayat içerisindeki işleyişin hızlı ve pratik olabilmesi için oldukça önemlidir.

Kişilerin kendi aralarında anlaşarak oluşturdukları ve ödeme kolaylığı sağlayan çeklerin muhatap bankaya ibraz edildiği takdirde ödenmesi gerekmektedir. Ancak bankaya ibraz edilen çeklerin karşılığının bulunması her durumda mümkün olmamaktadır. Çekin bedelinin bankada bulunmaması ya da çekte bulunması gerekli olan birtakım hususların olmaması gibi durumlarda çekin karşılığı olmayacak ve çekin hamili çekteki bedeli tahsil edemeyecektir. Çek ve muhatap bankanın birbirine olan sıkı bağından yola çıkılarak bu çalışmada, çeklerin karşılıksız kalma durumu ve muhatap bankanın, çekte yer alan unsurlardan biri olan düzenleyenin imzasına dayalı olarak çekteki bedeli ödememesi ya da ödemekten kaçınması durumu çeşitli yönlerden ele alınacaktır.

Authors: AKDENİZ Gülsüm
Published: December 2023

Objective: The human body exhibits both structural and functional asymmetry. One measure of this asymmetry is the ratio of 2D:4D, which is the proportion of measurements of the 2nd (2D) and 4th finger (4D). In this research, our objective is to investigate the potential association between the ratio of 2D:4D and handedness with voluntary individuals.

Methods: A total of 312 individuals volunteered to take part in the research, where their left and right hand's 4th and 2nd finger lengths were measured using a precise digital caliper. The "Edinburgh Handedness Inventory" was used to determine hand lateralization. To determine the significance between the two independent groups, the Mann Whitney U Test was used. On the other hand, to determine the significance between the two dependent groups, the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was utilized.

Results: Of the participants, 154 were male and 158 were female (age range 18-55, mean age=28.34). According to the Edinburgh Handedness Inventory, 275 individuals were right handed, 18 were left handed, and 19 were bimanual. The Mann Whitney U Test showed a significant result in the ratio of right hand 2D:4D between male and female participants who were right handed (z =-1.979, p = 0.048). Additionally, the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test demonstrated a difference between the right and the left hand ratio of 2D:4D for all participants which was significant (z = -2.822, p = 0.005), as well as for participants who were right handed (z = -2.850, p = 0.004).

Conclusion: The ratio of 2D:4D finger lengths could be a significant indicator of hand preference in both male and female healthy individuals. The ratio of 2D:4D holds potential as an indicator and research tool in understanding human emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.

Objective: Early identification of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients at high mortality risk can improve patient care and prevent deaths. To identify prognostic predictors that increase COVID-19 patient mortality risk in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Methods: Retrospective analysis of clinical characteristics and serological biomarkers of ICU-COVID-19 patients was performed in a tertiary hospital from 24 March 2020 to 20 December 2020. Analysis was conducted on two groups of study participants: survivors and deceased. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine mortality risk. In order to determine prognostic predictors, the ANOVA test was used to compare the data of serological biomarkers on the day of patients' admission to the ICU and on the 5th day of follow-up.

Results: A total of 335 patients (54.65%) were in the deceased group, and 278 (45.35%) were in the survivors group. A statistically significant difference was found between the deceased and survivor groups regarding mean age (p
Unveiling Myasthenia Gravis: A Comprehensive Analysis of Diagnostic Tools and Clinical Insights
Authors: ÖNCEL Samet , TUNÇ Abdulkadir
Published: December 2023

Objective: This research offers a comprehensive analysis of Myasthenia Gravis (MG), uncovering the remarkable accuracy of spinal accessory, ulnar, and facial nerve repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS), along with the precision of single fiber electromyography (SF-EMG) in MG diagnosis. We also embark on an exploration of clinical features and autoantibody test results in generalized MG patients.

Methods: In this prospective study, we welcomed 31 individuals definitively diagnosed with generalized MG into our quest. The categorization of patients was conducted in accordance with the criteria set by the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America (MGFA). We examined patients' trapezius, nasalis, and abductor digiti minimi (ADM) muscles using RNS. We meticulously recorded the presence of MG autoantibodies, clinical subtypes based on affected muscle groups, and SF-EMG jitter rates.

Results: The mean age of the 31 patients of whom 19 (61.3%) were male, was 64 ± 13.9 years. Among them, 20 showed positivity in the Anti-AChR antibody test. In 28 patients, accounting for 90.3% of the study group, single fiber electromyography (EMG) displayed increased jitter. There were 4 (12.9%), 24 (77.4%) and 12 (38.7%) patients featuring a decremental response of exceeding 10% in ADM, trapezius and nasalis muscles, respectivelyOur investigation revealed notable findings, such as the absence of substantial correlations between decremental response rates and age, gender, duration of complaints, antibody test results, thymus abnormalities, affected muscle types, familial history, or increased jitter rates in SF-EMG (p>0.05).

Conclusion: As our findings clearly show, we can confidently attest to the remarkable sensitivity of RNS in MG diagnosis when muscle selection is precise. A gem discovered on our study is the high sensitivity of the spinal accessory nerve, a revelation that should guide the course of routine RNS studies, particularly for those facing ocular-onset myasthenia.

The South China Sea disputes are mainly related to delimitations concerning islands and reefs in the South China Sea and adjoining waters. The claimant states are China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Brunei. Claimants’ states are keen on holding or gaining the freedom to fish stocks, the investigation and expected abuse of unrefined petroleum and flammable gas in the seabed of different areas of the South China Sea, and the essential control of significant delivery paths. The Spratly Islands issue can be assessed from an assortment of points. Regarding public safety, these islands are significant because of their locations in the South China Sea, where numerous merchant ships carry merchandise, individuals, and energy to Asian-Pacific nations. Drones, as sophisticated tools connected and controlled by cyber technology, are used to observe the conditions of the islands from long distances. The methodology used in this article is the qualitative method. The data was collected from a variety of articles that related to this topic. This article analyses how effectively China uses drones with cyber power to monitor the Spratly Islands. This article focuses more on the operational, tactical, and strategic advantages of drone monitoring of Spratly Island in the South China Sea.
Sepsis

Maternal sepsis is "a life-threatening condition defined as an organ dysfunction caused by an infection during pregnancy, delivery, puerperium, or after an abortion," with the potential to save millions of lives if a proper approximation is made. Undetected or poorly managed maternal infections can lead to sepsis, death, or disability for the mother, and an increased likelihood of early neonatal infection and other adverse outcomes. Physiological, immunologic, and mechanical changes that occur in pregnancy make pregnant women more susceptible to infections than nonpregnant women and may obscure signs and symptoms of infection and sepsis, resulting in a delay in the recognition and treatment of sepsis. Prioritization of the creation and validation of tools that allow the development of clear and standardized diagnostic criteria of maternal sepsis and septic shock, according to the changes inherent to pregnancy, correspond to highly effective strategies to reduce the impact of these conditions on maternal health worldwide. After an adequate diagnostic approach, the next goal is achieving stabilization, trying to stop the progression from sepsis to septic shock, and improving tissue perfusion to limit cell dysfunction. Management protocol implementation during the first hour of treatment will be the most important determinant for the reduction of maternal mortality associated with sepsis and septic shock.

Lymphangiomas, cystic hygroma or macrocystic lymphatic malformation are a rare and benign congential malformations of the lymphatic system. Adults are affected rarely and less than children, and the abdominal location even less. Here, we discuss the case of a 56years old woman admitted and operated for a 7cm cystic mass of the tail of the pancreas, whom per operative exploration showed a retroperitoneal polycystic mass and histopathology concluded a lymphangioma. Less than 1% affect the retroperitoneum, they typically occur in spaces surrounded by loose connective tissue, the are difficult to differentiate from a mucinous cystic neoplasm of the pancreas by imaging since both have the appearance of multilocular cysts. Ultrasonography is very sensitive and relatively specific for evaluation of abdominal cystic masses. Laparoscopic removal has certain advantages over classical laparotomy, complete excision is recommended to protect the patient from subsequent recurrences even though cystic lymphangiomas are low-grade malignancies. The diagnosis of CL often is facilitated by means of modern imaging. Differential diagnosis include pancreatic pseudocysts, mucinous and serous cystadenomas, other congenital cysts and pancreatic ductal carcinoma with cystic degeneration. If symptomatic lesions or complications arise, complete surgical excision is a must.

Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) are the most common small bowel tumors, they are recognized for their ability to produce hormones causing mesenteric fibrosis and carcinoid syndrome. They tend to have better surgical rate than adenocarcinomas.this work was made as an update on one of the most aggressive small intestine tumors. Presentation of case We discuss here the case of a sixth years old female woman admitted and operated for a small intestine neuroendocrine tumor with peritoneal carcinosis Discussion Neuroendocrine tumors are secreting tumors, locating mainly in the small intestine with a high malignancy risk. At the time of the diagnosis, lymph node, liver metastasis and peritoneal carcinosis are very common. Patients may be asymptomatic or consult for abdominal pain, rarely bowel obstruction, diagnosis is radiologically made and confirmed indeed histologically. Treatment involves surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and radiotherapy and surveillance is assured by biomarkers, endoscopy and Octreoscan when metastatic. Conclusion The SI-NETs are rare but their incidence and prevalence have been increasing. Histologically, diagnosis is confirmed by positive immunohistochemical staining. Treatment and prognosis depend on the grade and stage of the tumor. Immunotherapy will serve as a future treatment modality.
