Application of hyperthermal alignment controlled O2 beam and atomic oxygen beam to surface reaction analysis
Authors: Kurahashi Mitsunori
Published: July 2023

Use of atomic/molecular beams with well-defined kinetic energy and internal states allows us to investigate details about the elementary processes of gas-surface interactions. O2 is involved in many technologically important processes while the fact that it is a linear molecule with an electron spin needs to be considered for understanding the microscopic details of the O2-surface interaction. A spin-rotational state-selected O2 beam allows us to clarify how the molecular alignment and spin affect the O2-surface interaction. Its recent applications to the analysis of O2 adsorption and catalytic CO oxidation on flat and stepped Pt surfaces are shown. We have also developed an apparatus that allows us to put a radical beam onto a surface and monitor the change in the surface chemical states with metastable deexcitation spectroscopy. The apparatus and its application to the analysis of CO oxidation by atomic oxygen on Pt(111) are also presented.

Published: July 2023

Purpose- To study the effect of 6% hydroxyethyl starch as pre loading uid for prevention of hypotension
following spinal anaesthesia. Material & method- An observational cross –sectional clinical study was
carried out in 100 subjects. Parturients belonging to 20 to 35 years of age, belonging to ASA physical status class 1 and 2,
undergoing caesarean section under subarachnoid block (spinal anaesthesia) were included & divided into 2 groups. Group A
involved 50 Parturients receiving 500ml of Ringer's lactate as preloading uid and group B involved 50 Parturients receiving 500
ml 6% Hydroxyethyl starch (hestrarch) as preloading uid. Heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and
mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded at 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90 minutes interval in all 100 parturients. ResultThe mean systolic blood pressure, mean diastolic blood pressure, mean MAP at baseline, at 1 minute and at 90 minutes was
comparable between the two groups while at all the other time intervals these values were higher in the Hestarch group.
Overall the mean heart rate was higher in the Hestarch group. No adverse events were seen in this study in both the groups.
Conclusion- This study concludes that preloading of parturients planned for caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia with
6% hydroxylethyl starch, 20 minutes before induction prevent spinal anaesthesia induced hypotension better than preloading
with Ringer's lactate solution.

Authors: B Sawale Sumeet , Khippal Narendra , Bhandar Chand , Verma Ashutosh , Verma Pankaj
Published: July 2023

Background: The only chance of successfully battling the disease is in detecting it at the earliest possible stage, particularly before the lesion has progressed to the stage of a visible and palpable tumour. Cancer researchers have long sought to develop approaches that would allow for early identication and treatment of lung cancer, reducing mortality. Although histology remains the gold standard, bronchial biopsies cannot be performed on all patients with cancer suspicion. Taking a bronchial biopsy becomes more difcult and requires expertise when the lesions are peripheral and there is a risk of bleeding. Cytologic procedures are less risky, less expensive, and produce faster results. Bronchoscopic cleaning, brushing, and ne needle aspirations not only supplement but are also similar to tissue biopsies in the diagnosis of lung cancer. As a result, the current study was designed to investigate the role of endobronchial ne needle aspiration and the combined yield of endobronchial needle aspiration, bronchial brush, and bronchial wash in bronchogenic cancer. Material and methods: Current study was Hospital based prospective observational study conducted at the Institute of Respiratory Diseases, SMS Medical College, Jaipur, Rajasthan from May 2021 to June 2022. A total 120 cases suspected cases of Bronchogenic carcinoma aged above 18 years were included in the study. Data were analysed in SPSS v- 24 Chi square test was applied to compare the different methodology. Sensitivity, specicity, NPV and PPV was calculated. p value <0.05 was considered statistically signicant. Results: Out of the all 3 modalities EBNA followed by bronchial brush and least by bronchial wash were positive when compare with the biopsy ndings to diagnose the bronchogenic carcinoma and out of all the 3 modalities sensitivity was maximum for combined all 3 followed by EBNA and least for bronchial wash. Conclusion: Our study concluded that highest sensitivity to diagnose bronchogenic carcinoma was found for the all three EBNA, bronchial brush and bronchial wash together followed by the EBNA. It is the least invasive, cost-effective diagnostic technique which provides earlier and accurate diagnosis, thus facilitating the early diagnosis and treatment of a patient. It also has prognostic values

TREATMENT OF DRUG INDUCED GINGIVAL ENLARGEMENT BY LEDGE AND WEDGE TECHNIQUE : A CASE REPORT
Authors: Sudhakaran Shilpa , V Bhavsar Neeta , Chavda Mahesh
Published: July 2023

Drug-induced gingival enlargement, previously known as drug-induced gingival hyperplasia or drug-induced gingival
overgrowth usually manifests as a side effect of certain drugs. The key drug classes that cause such a side effect are
anticonvulsants, immunosuppressants and calcium channel blockers. These overgrowth often cause inconvenience to
the patient as it impedes proper oral hygiene maintenance, cause damage to aesthetic display and often is very painful
during eating and chewing. The first line of treatment in such cases is the non-surgical periodontal approach followed by
discontinuation of the offending drug. This is followed by the surgical approach which includes various techniques such
as the gingivectomy, periodontal flap surgery, or the ledge and approach. This case report aims to emphasize on the
ledge and wedge approach for the surgical management of drug induced gingival enlargement and to understand the
benefits of using this approach over other techniques

Authors: Gupta Ankit , Singh Niharika , Ahmed Sattar Fiaz , Kumar K Kiran , B Swapna
Published: July 2023

Background: Alcohol dependence syndrome (ADS) is a heterogeneous disorder with multifactorial etiology and a major public health issue. Recognition of this heterogeneity has led researchers to identify various typologies of ADS. Age-of-onset of ADS is an important unidimensional construct and is influenced by various personality traits. To understand this intricate relationship the current study was undertaken with an aim to assess and compare personality profile in early onset and late onset typologies of ADS. Methodology: Patients diagnosed with ADS as per ICD-10 criteria by a qualified Psychiatrist, were included. The patients were assessed using composite semi-structured sociodemographic and alcohol use proforma, Severity of alcohol dependence questionnaire, Multiphasic Personality Questionnaire, Sensation Seeking Scale-Form V (modified) and Eysenck's Personality Inventory. A cross-sectional descriptive study was done by dividing the sample (100 subjects) into 2 groups,(50 subjects in each group) based on the age-of-onset of ADS as EO-ADS (≤ 25 years) and LO-ADS (>25 years).Statistical analysis was done using chi-square,t-test and Fischer's exact test. Results: There was statistical difference of very high significance between the EO and LO-ADS groups in the variables of mean age,occupation, age-of-onset of alcohol use and ADS,total duration of alcohol use, SADQ score, total Sensation Seeking Scale score, Experience seeking and Disinhibition subscales of SSS, Anxiety, Depression and Hysteria subscales of MPQ, Extraversion and Neuroticism scales of EPI. Conclusion: In the light of significant difference in numerous variables between the two groups of EO-ADS and LO-ADS, the current study favours the concept of dichotomous approach in the age-of-onset of ADS based typology for discerning between the distinct psychopathological subtypes of ADS

A CASE OF SMALL BOWEL OBSTRUCTION DUE TO FECALOMA : A CASE REPORT.
Authors: Inba Sekar Sagaya , Bharath Bharath , A Vysali.
Published: July 2023

Introduction : Fecaloma is an accumulation of feces that has formed a mass and has failed to be expelled spontaneously. Because fecal matter is harder and firmer in the left side of colon, and the diameter of the bowel is smaller compared to the right, fecalomas mostly form in recto-sigmoid area. Small bowel fecaloma formation is an extremely rare condition. Here is a case of small bowel fecaloma. We report a 67 years old man who presented with small Case presentation: bowel obstruction due to ileal feca- lomas for whom enterotomy and removal of fecaloma was done with good outcome. Discussion: Fecal matter can accumulate in the intestinal lumen to form a mass separate from other intestinal contents which eventually becomes fecaloma. Formation is usually related to chronic constipation, conditions causing intestinal motility disorder, or in psychiatric patients who could have ingested extraordinary substances. Fecaloma can present as abdominal mass, stercoral colitis, urinary retention or intestinal obstruction. Treatment options include conservative management with bowel rest, laxatives, endoscopic removal, laparotomy and removal via enterotomy. Conclusion: Fecaloma can be considered in patients who present with small bowel obstruction without any risk factors. Initial noninvasive management should be considered. Failed conservative treatment can be followed by laparotomy and fecaloma removal.

WU CHENG’EN’S NOVEL “JOURNEY TO THE WEST” AND ITS RESOURCES FOR ANIMATED ADAPTATIONS
Authors: Niu Xuebiao
Published: July 2023

This article explores the potential for producing animated movies based on the Chinese classic novel «Journey to the West». The author traces the evolution of the plot and characterizes the main features of the famous literary work, the adaptation of which was repeatedly used not only by Chinese, but also by Japanese, Korean and other animators. Over the years and centuries, the pilgrimage of the Tang monk and his companions to India in search of the sacred sutras has evolved from historical accounts to folklore tales, and eventually to plays, after which the journey has become the subject of several novels by different authors, with Wu Chen’en’s novel being the most renowned classic. And it is the very process of turning a real story and real people into a legend, a myth, geographical movement and physical travel into a metaphysical path, followed by characters whose image goes back to ancient archetypes that made the novel so popular during different centuries and in different countries. Furthermore, the article highlights the distinctive features of the novel that make it particularly suitable for adaptation through animation. Unlike written art, visual art can directly incorporate the images and forms of various folk art forms such as folk painting, sculpture, popular print, shadow theatre, Peking Opera, and traditional painting. Chinese animation based on the novel has successfully utilized these art forms. Additionally, one should consider the genre of the novel, which is rooted in the collective unconsciousness and rich in formal, plot, and thematic elements. As noted by Russian philologist and semiotician J. Lotman, animated cinema is the most appropriate means for adapting fantastic stories. At the same time, Wu Chen’en’s novel «Journey to the West» has the value of not only a national cultural heritage, but also a global one. The author notes the important idea of the Canadian media theorist Marshall McLuhan about the relevance in the information society of the Chinese way of thinking with its idea of a net world and a net person. Animated films based on the plots of «Journey to the West», can effectively broadcast the values of the Chinese worldview and mentality and thereby contribute to the mankind’s response to the challenges of the time.

The purpose of this study is mainly to analyze the influence of sports volunteers’ participation motivation and job satisfaction on re-participation intention. Students who volunteer to participate in the volunteer work of the 2023 National Intercollegiate Athletic Games are the research objects. A questionnaire survey is conducted at each site during the competition. 200 questionnaires are distributed, with 13 invalid questionnaires and 187 valid questionnaires collected. The effective questionnaire recovery rate is 93%. This research is analyzed by statistical methods, such as narrative statistics and multiple regression, and so forth. The study has the following findings: In the volunteer service of the National Intercollegiate Athletic Games, the participation motivation of the university sports volunteers is the highest in “the method and techniques of learning to do things”. In terms of job satisfaction, the highest is “Feel that I am part of the school". Therefore, in the process of volunteering service, sports volunteers feel a high degree of job satisfaction, and their intention to participate in volunteer service in the future is consequently higher. Based on the above results, this study not only provides specific suggestions for planning volunteer services for large-scale sports events in the future, but also proposes directions for future research.

Strengthening Israel-Saudi Arabia Co-Existence towards Peaceful and Stable Middle East
Authors: Oluwashakin Ajinde , Aleyomi Michael
Published: July 2023

One of the specific objectives of the United States President Joe Biden’s Middle East visit, in July 2022, was the intent of Saudi Arabia normalization of diplomatic relations with Israel. However, this was largely unachieved despite the fact that Israel and Saudi Arabia had long been in secret cooperation, without formal diplomatic relations between them, since Israel attained nationhood in 1948. This article sought to examine the concrete barriers to normalization of relations, extolling cooperation and disentangling the cyclic ambivalences of Saudi government towards Israel. Certain barriers could be removed, aimed at strengthening normal peaceful co-existence between the two countries. The neorealist and neoliberal theoretical perspectives are adopted as framework of analysis. Data were derived from both primary and secondary sources, made up of interview, government official documents and independent mediascape. Findings showed that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict remained the concrete barrier to normalized Saudi-Israeli relations. But areas of cooperation between the two countries, albeit covertly, include trade and common stance against security concerns. These and other areas of cooperation could be broadened to strengthen peaceful co-existence between the two neighbours. And more determined diplomatic efforts must continue, to resolve the generational and intractable Israeli-Palestinian conflict on ‘two-state’ solution basis. In conclusion, the ambivalences that have characterized relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia need be discarded. A Palestinian statehood is attainable, with rights of mutual co-existence between the parties and removing nuclear threat and need for balance of power, all necessary to make the Middle East relatively stable and peaceful.

Published: July 2023

Background: Lupus nephritis (LN) is a significant manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that affects the kidneys. Differentiating between active and inactive LN is essential for determining disease activity, tailoring treatment strategies, and monitoring patient outcomes. The clinical and laboratory status of LN patients provides valuable insights into the severity of renal involvement, response to treatment, and the potential for disease progression. Objective: To asses clinical and laboratory status of active and inactive LN patients. Method: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Nephrology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka from January, 2017 to June, 2018. This cross sectional study was performed on 60 biopsy proven lupus nephritis patients and 30 age and sex matched apparently healthy control subjects. All the patients were recruited as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. Diagnosed SLE patients who had renal involvement and undergone renal biopsy for standard clinical indications were recruited by purposive sampling and divided into two groups of active and inactive LN as per operational definition. Results: During the study, Mean age of the lupus nephritis patients in active and inactive LN was 26.60 ± 8.36 years and 28.80 ± 9.18 years respectively. Most of the patients in both groups were female. Anaemia and edema was observed significantly higher in active than that of inactive lupus nephritis. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure was significantly higher in active lupus nephritis than that of inactive lupus nephritis patients. Hb, serum C3 and eGFR were significantly lower in active LN than that of inactive LN. RBC, WBC, platelet count were also lower in active LN than that of inactive LN but no significant difference was observed between two groups. ESR, serum creatinine, proteinuria, Anti ds DNA Ab titre and uMCP-1 were significantly higher in active LN than that of inactive LN. There was no difference between active and inactive LN patients with regards the use of medications. There was no difference in renal biopsy classes in between two groups. Conclusion: According to our study findings, active lupus nephritis (LN) patients exhibited elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to those with inactive LN. Additionally, active LN patients displayed lower levels of hemoglobin, serum C3, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) compared to inactive LN patients. While red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), and platelet counts were also lower in active LN patients, the difference between the two groups did not reach statistical significance. Furthermore, there were no notable differences in medication usage between active and inactive LN patients, and the distribution of renal biopsy classes was similar in both groups.

Published: July 2023

Long covid syndrome is a condition that persists in patients infected with SARS Covid 19 virus which may affect several organ systems. These individuals do not completely recover and symptoms may persist for a long time. There is a high risk of infection in post covid syndrome as the immune system gets suppressed. Cough and dyspnea were the most reported symptoms within the subjects. Patients with comorbidities have a high risk of hospitalization, the most prevalent comorbidity being diabetes mellitus followed by hypertension. Cardiovascular and pulmonary complications were most prevalent among the study subjects. The blood group related evaluation helps in studying the prevalence of long Covid in each blood type and to find the most susceptible group to persisting symptoms of Covid-19. The evaluation of lab parameters helped in understanding the pattern of lab changes in the affected individuals. The changes in the quality of life are topics of discussion, as the persisting symptoms may affect the everyday life of the affected individuals. Using a set of standard questionnaires, the quality of life was calculated qualitatively and conclusions were derived.
A Study on Evaluation of Relationship between Left Atrial Volume and Diastolic Dysfunction in Bangladeshi Patients
Authors: Bhuyan Amirul Islam , Kawsar Syeda Masuma
Published: July 2023

Background: An increase in the left atrial volume index (LAVI) has been recognized as an important indicator of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (DD), which is considered a significant risk factor for cardiovascular events. The left atrium plays a crucial role in maintaining efficient cardiac function by facilitating proper blood flow between the pulmonary veins and the left ventricle during diastole. Objective: In this study our main goal is to evaluate the relationship between Left Atrial Volume and Diastolic Dysfunction in 500 Bangladeshi Patients. Method: From January 2022 to January 2023, researchers at a tertiary hospital in Bangladesh analyzed data from 500 patients in need of a transthoracic echo in the cardiology department. Patients were people aged 20 to 86 with a history free of atrial or ventricular arrhythmias, pacemaker usage, valvular disease (other than minor), or congenital cardiopathy who presented with sinus rhythm. Forty-five people were left out because their tests were either too limited to assess mitral diastolic flow (n = 35) or too limited to assess left atrial volume index (n = 10). Five hundred patients were used as the study's final sample size. Results: The average age and proportion of men in the DD groups were both greater than in the normal function group. The DD groups had more left ventricular mass than the controls. Only in the group with ventricular filling limitation pattern (grade III DD), was the ejection fraction significantly decreased. LAVI and dimensions both rose as DD severity increased, from 21 4.2 mL/m2 in grade I to 26.1 7.5 mL/m2 in grade II to 50.4 2.8 mL/m2 in grade III (p 0.001). In addition, the grade I DD groups (altered relaxation) showed a relative decrease in the E-wave and the E/A ratio, and an increase in the mitral deceleration time, when compared to the normal diastolic function group; the opposite was seen in the group with grade III DD (restrictive pattern). All DD subtypes had weaker e' waves compared to those with normal diastolic function. As DD progressed, a rise in the E/e' ratio was seen. LAVI was positively correlated with age, left ventricular (LV) diastolic and systolic volumes, LV wall relative thickness, LV mass indexed to height raised to the 2.7th power, and E/e' ratio (all p 0.01). There was a statistically significant negative relationship between left atrial volume index and left ventricular ejection fraction, as well as between the e' wave and the septal mitral anulus. Conclusion: According to this study in a Bangladeshi population, DD contributes to left atrial remodelling, and a rise in LAVI is an indicator of DD severity. In this cohort with preserved or slightly reduced mean ejection fraction and no substantial valvular heart disease, LAVI increase determinants are related to age, left ventricular hypertrophy, higher filling pressure, and impaired LV systolic performance.

A pericardite constritiva (PC) é uma condição na qual a cicatrização e perda de elasticidade do pericárdio resultam em enchimento ventricular prejudicado, disfunção diastólica e insuficiência cardíaca direita. O diagnóstico dessa patologia é desafiador, sendo frequente a necessidade de técnicas de imagem multimodal, dentre as quais a ecocardiografia representa a modalidade de imagem inicial para a avaliação diagnóstica, além de permitir a diferenciação da PC da cardiomiopatia restritiva (CMR) e outras condições que mimetizam constrição.
Como a Avaliação da Reserva de Fluxo Miocárdico pela Medicina
Nuclear Pode Mudar a Interpretação da Cintilografia Miocárdica
de Perfusão?
Authors: Lima Ronaldo de Souza Leão
Published: July 2023

A cintilografia de perfusão miocárdica (CPM) com tomografia computadorizada por emissão de fóton único (SPECT) é importante para o diagnóstico e avaliação prognóstica em pacientes com doença arterial coronariana (DAC). A CPM avalia a presença, extensão e grau de isquemia miocárdica e/ou infarto geralmente por meio de observação visual ou parâmetros semiquantitativos. Apesar de seus valores diagnóstico e prognóstico comprovados, a natureza relativa das imagens de perfusão pode limitar a capacidade da SPECT de identificar pacientes com DAC multiarterial de alto risco. Essas limitações, que dizem respeito à avaliação visual ou semiquantitativa de defeitos regionais de perfusão miocárdica, podem resultar em subestimação ou diagnóstico errôneo devido a isquemia “balanceada”.

Essa limitação pode ser superada pela quantificação do fluxo sanguíneo miocárdico (FSM) ou a reserva de fluxo miocárdico (RFM) usando a cinética dos traçadores na tomografia por emissão de pósitrons (PET). , A PET é um método não invasivo bem validado para quantificação da perfusão miocárdica, demonstrando um poder incremental de diagnóstico e prognóstico quando comparada à CPMem pacientes com suspeita ou DAC conhecida. , Assim, a PET é considerada padrão-ouro para quantificação não invasiva de FSM e RFM. – No entanto, a produção de traçadores próprios para a PET tem custos elevados e a tecnologia ainda não está disponível em muitos países.

Irányváltással Közép-Európa felemelkedése is lehetne a magyar külpolitika célja
Authors: Bán Zoltán
Published: July 2023

A külpolitikai irány megváltoztatásával Magyarország elkerülhetné kapcsolatai további romlását a szövetségi rendszeren belül, valamint a közép-európai térség önálló arculatát és erejét is növelni tudná, mindezt az Egyesült Államok segítségével. A magyar külpolitika Washington felé közeledne, ám távlati célként mindezt az amerikai függés csökkentésére, az európai stratégiai autonómia elérésére használná fel. A német—francia, az orosz, és a lengyel—amerikai hatalmi összpontosulások közti választások más-más előnyöket és hátrányokat okozhatnak. Az orosz—ukrán háború első éve után érdemes felülvizsgálni az eddigi orientációkat.

Siswi SMA/SMK merupakan usia transisi dari masa remaja menuju usia yang dianggap dewasa menurut hukum perdata dan hukum pidana. Oleh karenanya, pengenalan terhadap peristiwa dan akibat hukum baik secara hukum perdata maupun hukum pidana berkaitan dengan subjek hukum menurut Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata dan Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2023 amatlah penting bagi mereka. Demikian pula dengan dalam kemajuan teknologi elektronik yang sangat erat dengan hukum pidana jika disalahgunakan terus berkembang pesat saat ini, haruslah bijak dalam penggunaan teknologi, agar adagium “jarimu harimu” tidak menyeret ke ranah tindak pidana. Hasil pengabdian ini menunjukkan pemahaman hukum siswi SMA/SMK pada Panti Asuhan Putri ‘AISYIYAH’ Kota Tegal masih minim karena keterbatasan informasi baik melalui media offline maupun online (adanya larangan penggunaan handphone dan internet).
Analysis of Niger's Renewable Energy Potential
Authors: Tınnı Issifa Hamıdou
Published: July 2023

In this study, we conduct an analysis of Niger's energy potential and electricity production capacity. We are interested in the potential of renewable energies in order to see if an electric production using renewable energies, more precisely solar and wind energies, are viable for Niger. In order to achieve results that are closer to reality, we used the HOMER PRO program, which allows us to simulate the energy production of several types of power plants while having the possibility of changing the wind speed parameters as well as solar radiation, and also to introduce the installation, maintenance and operation costs in order to establish a better economic and optimal energy analysis. We have therefore proceeded to the simulation of different scenarios of photovoltaic and wind power plants for the city of NIAMEY where the highest human density of Niger is located. According to our results and based on installation and maintenance costs only we note that the solar electric potential is much higher than that of the wind energy for the city of Niamey. The energy cost of the solar photovoltaic power plant is lower than that of the wind power plant although the initial investment of the PV is higher than the wind power plant. In the same way, solar panels have a better electrical output under the climatic conditions of Niger than wind turbines because of a good solar irradiation in the city of Niamey.
