Published: September 2022

Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in developing countries and drug resistance remains a challenge. Drug resistance is hastened by point mutations in the bacilli genome and their frequencies vary geographically hence the need to understand regional specific patterns for early detection of mutant strains. In this cross sectional study, Sputum samples from pulmonary tuberculosis clinical suspects were collected to detect mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis that confers resistance to Isoniazid and rifampicin anti-anti tuberculosis drugs. Detection of mutations was done using GenoType MTBDRplus. Out of a sample of 256 from Tuberculosis clinical suspected cases, 145 were Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli confirmed out of which 32 (22%) were new Tuberculosis (TB) cases and 113(78%) retreatment. The total for isoniazid resistance was 9(6.2%), out of which 2(6.3%) were in new cases and 7(6.3%) in retreatment cases. Multi Drug Resistance (MDR) was 2(1.8%) and all in retreatment cases. Rifampicin resistance was 7(4.8%), 1 (3.1%) in new case and 6(5.3%) in retreatment. The MDR among Rifampicin Resistance(RR) was 28.6%. Low Isoniazid resilient strains had changes in the katG gene resulting to nucleotide change from A G C to A C C. Four rifampicin resistant isolates showed mutations at the rpoB gene with nucleotide change from C A C to T A C  and a single isolate displayed mutation at the rpoB gene with nucleotide change from T C G to T T G. Same nucleotide change A G C to A C C  from different patients  in the same facility might be an indication of local  transmission of drug resistance and greater variability of mutations observed in HIV positive and retreatment cases are possibilities of mutations acquired during treatment courses by repeated administration of the same anti-TB drugs.

Anaerobes and the cleanroom operator association: Is there a case for anaerobic environmental monitoring?
Authors: Sandle Tim
Published: September 2022

Is anaerobic environmental monitoring necessary? For obligate anaerobes the case for doing so is low. For facultative anaerobes, where aseptically filled parenteral products are involved, the case is far higher. Any such consideration should be based on a quality risk assessment taking into account the interactions between people and exposed product or product components and the opportunity for particle deposition. In many cases, the risk will not be known unless selective environmental monitoring has been performed given the slow growth rate of organisms like Cutibacterium acnes and the preferential growth obtained using an anaerobic atmosphere and a blood-based culture medium. The argument of this paper is not so much with whether anaerobic monitoring is necessary for aseptically filled products, but with how often should this be performed?

La presente investigación tuvo como propósito, la descripción de los niveles de Estrés Percibido en comerciantes de la Plaza de San Francisco de la Ciudad de Cuenca. La misma se desarrolló a través de un enfoque cuantitativo no experimental de corte transversal, con alcance descriptivo. La muestra tomada fue de 51 comerciantes de la Plaza de San Francisco. Como instrumento de recolección de datos se utilizó la Escala de Estrés percibido (EEP) con su correspondiente consentimiento informado.  Se evidenció que la muestra presenta, principalmente, niveles moderados de estrés percibido, oscila entre 11 a 16 (41,2%). En cambio, en las habilidades de afrontamiento, estas oscilan entre los 13 a 18 puntos (49,0%), correspondiendo a bajas capacidades para responder a estresores. Se concluye que los niveles de Estrés Percibido fueron moderados, al igual que se evidencia que, el mayor porcentaje de comerciantes no posee concretamente habilidades de afrontamiento útiles para manejar situaciones difíciles y estresantes. Con relación al distrés general, se pudo evidenciar su elevada percepción de estrés ante situaciones difíciles, además de su bajo control sobre las mismas.

La fractura peri protésica es una patología poco frecuente en general, si bien se ha constatado en las últimas décadas un claro aumento de su incidencia en relación con el creciente número de reemplazos articulares que se efectúan, con alta incidencia en la población anciana. El objetivo del estudio es actualizar el conocimiento acerca del tratamiento de fracturas peri protésicas de fémur en pacientes con reemplazo de cadera. Se realizó una búsqueda sistematizada a través de los buscadores electrónicos PubMed, Scielo, Redalyc, la búsqueda alcanzó un total de 64 artículos, seleccionando 12 trabajos para realizar nuestra revisión bibliográfica, como resultados la mayoría de los trabajos analizados son estudios tipo serie de casos retrospectivos. Se plantean dos opciones terapéuticas para resolver esta asociación: tratar la fractura y la patología articular en un mismo acto quirúrgico. El tratamiento mediante artroplastia disminuye el tiempo para la deambulación postoperatoria evitando así complicaciones médicas relacionadas a la enfermedad fracturaría, obteniendo mejores resultados funcionales a corto plazo. La tasa de mortalidad no depende de la opción terapéutica, pero sí de la presencia de 3 o más comorbilidades y edad mayor a 80 años. Resulta importante conocer el tratamiento más adecuado para esta asociación de patologías, ello contribuiría a disminuir los efectos sobre este grupo de pacientes vulnerables, de tal manera se concluye que, la prevalencia de fracturas peri protésicas fue menor del 3%; esta patología depende de distintos factores que se deben tener en cuenta al momento de realizar los procedimientos quirúrgicos.

Information and communication systems are interactions between data, humans and procedures that are supported by hardware, software, and braindware to provide a solution in the form of information that can be used to take a further decision, both short, medium and long term in an organization. With the existence of ICT will save costs in all aspects, labor, process, marketing, and managerial. This study aims to determine the application of ICT in the HU News Cianjur editorial office. The method used is participatory qualitative observation, the researcher acts as an observer and observes in order to observe things related to the main objectives of the study. The results showed that the editorial office of HU Berita Cianjur implemented modern and renewable ICT. This policy is to support the work process of all existing divisions, especially the editorial staff in terms of internet access which cannot be separated from the existing system and work procedures, especially the news distribution process from reporters to appearances. The results of preprinted products are sent to the printing company through supporting applications. Meanwhile, to regulate the regulation and distribution of news between desks, a server system is used using the main computer as a data center. In order to be able to connect between parties using the Local Areal Network (LAN) system, which is also used to transform company information, including the dissemination of policies or regulations. This step is part of the implementation of IT Governance, namely corporate governance that focuses on information technology systems as well as performance and risk management which includes computer resources. However, there are obstacles, namely the availability of facilities and infrastructure. The reason is that this infrastructure problem requires no small amount of money, so that the management is limited in allocating the budget for the development of this ICT-based infrastructure. Another obstacle is the inability of individuals to use it. The reason is, even though the communication facilities have been adequate with advanced technology, some have not been able to use them. In addition, obstacles from the application of ICT are also related to the individual's ability to communicate.
Keterbukaan Informasi Publik dan Kebebasan Pers dalam Konteks Reformasi Birokrasi
Authors: Rustandi Nanang
Published: September 2022

Freedom of the press guarantees that the government and the public are aware of the various realities that are happening or the opinions, views, of experts on an issue and conflict. While the KIP Law has an important role in changing the paradigm of society, which initially believed that public bodies were obliged to report accountability, since the KIP Law was enacted, the public has the right to obtain the information they need, and has the right to demand that public bodies publish such information. This study aims to determine the role of the UU KIP in promoting press freedom, and the role of press freedom in realizing bureaucratic reform. This research uses a qualitative descriptive methodology to explain phenomena and to find knowledge or theories about research at a certain time. The technique of collecting data is through library research, which is a way of collecting data by referring to books or scientific documents, literature, notes, and various reports that have been available as references to obtain data on the problem being studied. The results of the study show that the universal principle of openness to public information places press freedom as part of the scope of freedom of information. Achieving the true goal of information disclosure requires a press climate that is free, independent and professional. Meanwhile, the presence of the Law on the Disclosure of Public Information is expected to support the implementation of the press's function so that public bodies are obliged to open the tap of information through all available channels. The press has the right to seek, obtain and disseminate ideas and information, and public participation can be carried out by carrying out activities to develop press freedom and promote press freedom. guarantee the right to obtain the necessary information. Thus, public information disclosure and press freedom are two things that are bound and mutually reinforcing in an effort to realize transparent and accountable governance as a manifestation of bureaucratic reform that is currently underway.

Evaluation of water pollution is a priority work nowadays. The signature of the waterbody reveals its excellence or mediocrity and reflectance that can measure by a sensor used to analyse the health status of the waterbody. The remote sensing analysis has become the latest state of art technologies for monitoring large-scale waterbodies. High-resolution satellite data are now available to estimate water pollution through various water quality parameters like clarity, chlorophyll, suspended solids, turbidity, temperature, salinity, organic matter, etc. In this review study, a special emphasise has been given to the various satellites like Landsat, sentinel, satellite pourl’Observation de la terre (SPOT), moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS), medium resolution imaging spectrometer (MERIS), Indian remote sensing satellites (IRS) and its application on water pollution. Availability of satellite data, algorithms, and models to assess water quality has also been reviewed in detailed. The review suggests development and innovation in satellites, sensors and techniques to assess the non-optically active constituents of water quality for better understanding and management of water pollution.

Published: September 2022

This research sought to investigate the moderating influence of monitoring and evaluation practices on the relationship between community empowerment and the sustainability of forest conservation projects. This study was conducted in Taita-Taveta County, located in the southern part of Kenya. Community empowerment is viewed as a process and an end where community members gain control of their lives. The empowerment practices considered were knowledge and skills empowerment, decision-making empowerment, conflict resolution empowerment and income-generating empowerment activities. The study relied on a cross-sectional survey study design. A sample of 365 respondents for quantitative data was determined using Yamane formulae. Mixed methods were used to collect and analyse data. Cluster sampling and systematic sampling were used progressively to select respondents for quantitative questions, while those for qualitative questions were selected purposively. Additional data collection methods were observation and document analysis. The study noted that projects implemented in the study area were barely sustainable, with at least 44.1% of respondents agreeing while 52.1% neither agreed nor disagreed. Regression analysis results indicated the R-square change (model 2) of 0.015, which implied that model 2 with monitoring and evaluation practices positively enhanced the influence of community empowerment activities on the sustainability of forest conservation practices by at least 1.5%. Based on the results, the study concluded that monitoring and evaluation practices enhance the sustainability of forest conservation projects with a recommendation that project designers should always include monitoring and evaluation practices in their projects.

Published: September 2022

Advanced LIGO and Virgo have reported 90 confident gravitational-wave (GW) observations from compact-binary coalescences from their three observation runs. In addition, numerous subthreshold GW candidates have been identified. Binary neutron star (BNS) mergers can produce GWs and short-gamma-ray bursts, as confirmed by GW170817/GRB 170817A. There may be electromagnetic counterparts recorded in archival observations associated with subthreshold GW candidates. The CHIME/FRB Collaboration has reported the first large sample of fast radio bursts (FRBs), millisecond radio transients detected up to cosmological distances; a fraction of these may be associated with BNS mergers. This work searches for coincident GWs and FRBs from BNS mergers using candidates from the fourth Open Gravitational-wave Catalog and the first CHIME/FRB catalog. We use a ranking statistic for GW/FRB association that combines the GW detection statistic with the odds of temporal and spatial association. We analyze GW candidates and nonrepeating FRBs from 2019 April 1 to 2019 July 1, when both the Advanced LIGO/Virgo GW detectors and the CHIME radio telescope were observing. The most significant coincident candidate has a false alarm rate of 0.29 per observation time, which is consistent with a null observation. The null results imply, at most,

Published: September 2022

We present realistic expectations for the number and properties of neutron star binary mergers to be detected as multi-messenger sources during the upcoming fourth observing run (O4) of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, with the aim of providing guidance for the optimization of observing strategies. Our predictions are based on a population synthesis mode, which includes the GW signal-to-noise ratio, the kilonova (KN) optical and near-infrared light curves, the relativistic jet gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission peak photon flux, and the afterglow light curves in radio, optical, and X-rays. Within our assumptions, the rate of GW events to be confidently detected during O4 is

yr−1 (calendar year), 78% of which will produce a KN, and a lower 52% will also produce a relativistic jet. The typical depth of current optical electromagnetic search and follow-up strategies is still sufficient to detect most of the KNæ in O4, but only for the first night or two. The prospects for detecting relativistic jet emission are not promising. While closer events (within z ≲ 0.02) will likely still have a detectable cocoon shock breakout, most events will have their GRB emission (both prompt and afterglow) missed unless seen under a small viewing angle. This reduces the fraction of events with detectable jets to 2% (prompt emission, serendipitous) and 10% (afterglow, deep radio monitoring), corresponding to detection rates of

Errors When Constraining Hot Blackbody Parameters with Optical Photometry
Authors: Arcavi Iair
Published: September 2022

Measuring blackbody parameters for objects hotter than a few 104 K with optical data alone is common in many astrophysical studies. However this process is prone to large errors because at those temperatures the optical bands are mostly sampling the Rayleigh–Jeans tail of the spectrum. Here we quantify these errors by simulating different blackbodies, sampling them in various bands with realistic measurement errors, and refitting them to blackbodies using two different methods and two different priors. We find that when using only optical data, log-uniform priors perform better than uniform priors. Still, measured temperatures of blackbodies above ∼35,000 K can be wrong by ∼10,000 K, and only lower limits can be obtained for temperatures of blackbodies hotter than ∼50,000 K. Bolometric luminosities estimated from optical-only blackbody fits can be wrong by factors of 3–5. When adding space-based ultraviolet data, these errors shrink significantly. For when such data are not available, we provide plots and tables of the distributions of true temperatures that can result in various measured temperatures. It is important to take these distributions into account as systematic uncertainties when fitting hot blackbodies with optical data alone.
Time-dependent Lattice Cross Sections and Line Ratios for Solar Wind Charge Exchange: Bare Ne Incident on Atomic H and He
Authors: Bromley S. J. , Pindzola M. , Bodewits D. , Fogle M. R.
Published: September 2022

Charge exchange (CX) between highly charged ions and neutrals within the geocorona and heliosphere introduces a problematic background for every X-ray observation. For H-like ions the ℓ states within each n shell are degenerate. The majority of CX spectral models rely on calculated n-resolved cross sections, and the distribution of ℓ states is assumed to follow one of several analytical expressions. Laboratory data to validate these distributions at solar wind velocities is not available. Explicitly velocity-dependent calculations of n
ℓ-resolved CX cross sections using the time-dependent lattice (TDL) method for Ne10+ incident on atomic H and He at 1–5 keV amu−1 are reported. The cross sections are incorporated into a radiative cascade model, and the influence of n- and n
ℓ-resolved cross sections on possibly diagnostic emission line ratios is investigated. Comparisons of the ℓ distribution extracted from the TDL cross sections to the predominantly used analytical distributions reveals a consensus among n and n
ℓ-resolved data at solar wind velocities, suggesting a statistical distribution is most appropriate for CX collisions involving atomic H. No consensus is found for atomic He targets, and the ℓ distribution extracted from n
ℓ-resolved cross sections appears most appropriate. Open questions related to CX are discussed with emphasis on experimental methods to resolve them. Spectral measurements at an electron beam ion trap facility are planned to benchmark the presented cross section data.
Unravelling the origin of the common wall lizards (Podarcis muralis) in outh-eastern Europe using mitochondrial evidence

The origin of the common wall lizards (Podarcis muralis) populations in south-eastern Europe (namely in Bulgaria and Romania), representing the north-eastern range border of this species, was addressed using mitochondrial DNA. We compared cytochrome b sequences from Bulgaria and Romania with those from the contiguous range in Central Europe that are available from previous studies. We recorded five main haplogroups in Bulgaria and Romania, belonging to the Central Balkan clade. However, haplogroup III was recorded in more localities than previously found. Additionally, signs of haplotype admixture were identified in several populations along the Danube River. The presence of the Southern Alps haplotype in one population from Otopeni, Bucharest (Romania) and its close phylogenetic relationships to north Italy populations suggests human-mediated introductions of this wall lizard clade in Romania. Our results confirm that P. muralis can have non-native lineages and admixture through active human-mediated transport.
Distal transradial access. Initial experience. Results
Authors: Mihalev M.
Published: September 2022

Introduction: Conventional access through the radial artery (cTRA) is a standard approach in coronary interventions. Unfortunately, it carries a risk of long-term complications such as radial artery occlusion (RAO) and local complications, usually hematomas. Aim: Sharing initial experience in the application of distal transradial access (dTRA) on 134 patients, from single operator in one center and its applicability on patients with STEMI. Number of procedures required to get experience with this access, assessed by the degree of reduction of failed procedures. Materials and methods: From 08.03.21 to 18.11.21, 134 patients with dTRA (110 successful, 24 unsuccessful) were included in the study. dTRA is comsidered to be an access to the anatomical snuffbox. Completion of the entire procedure, not just a successful puncture or insertion of an introducer, was considered the access successful. Results: It was found that the success of the method was 82% of the criteria preset. Among the successful procedures, 48% were interventions. Of these, 71% had ACS and 43.6% had STEMI. The access was used on 3 patients who had CTO. Two patients underwent rotablation using a 7 in 6 Fr introduser. On 98% of the patients a 6 Fr introducer was used. Right dTRA was used on 93% of patients. From the 134 procedures performed, it was found that 92% of failures were up to the 80th procedures. After the 80’th procedures the frequency of failures decreased significantly. Complications ‒ 3 small hematomas and 2 numbness in the thumb, which did not require additional interventions. Conclusion: The procedure with dTRA was successfully completed by high percentage of patients, including the high-risk patients with ACS and STEMI. After the 80th dTRA procedure was reached level of skills with a low frequency of failed procedures. This suggests that dTRA can be an alternative to standard radial access to prevent radial artery occlusion, which has been confirmed by previous studies, better patient comfort, and lower risk of complications. The results were achieved without the need of reduction of the introducer’s diameter or use of special devices for hemostasis.
