O Aspecto financeiro municipal no exercício de 2016: um estudo de caso em alguns municípios do cariri ocidental paraibano.
Authors:   , Araújo Almeida Artur
Published: July 2023

O presente trabalho propõe desenvolver uma análise da situação financeira dos municípios no modelo federalista brasileiro, tendo como foco principal os municípios de Serra Branca, São João do cariri, Coxixola e Congo, no ano de 2016. Serão analisadas as receitas advindas de repasses da União e Estados, receitas próprias e das receitas acrescidas com a Lei de Repatriação de Recursos. Com o intuito de observar se estes municípios possuem autonomia financeira, para que possam cumprir com as obrigações destinadas aos entes municipais no atual modelo federalista brasileiro. Para isso, foram utilizados como fontes, dados coletados junto ao Tribunal de Contas da União, Tribunal de Contas do Estado da Paraíba e o Conselho Nacional dos Municípios. A partir destes dados, é possível analisar as receitas e despesas desses municípios no ano de 2016, comprovando a dependência econômica que os municípios tem perante os repasses de recursos da União e dos Estados, não existindo autonomia financeira destes entes, além disso os municípios em questão tem aumentado consideravelmente suas despesas e gastos com pagamento de folha de pessoal. Portanto, para que estes municípios possam ter uma verdadeira autonomia financeira, faz-se necessário que haja mudanças na gestão dos recursos que estes municípios dispõem, acrescido a mudanças no pacto federativo, buscando maiores direitos no que tange ao âmbito fiscal dos municípios. Mas principalmente, faz-se necessário que os gestores destinem melhor as suas despesas, tendo em vista desenvolver políticas públicas mais eficientes e sustentáveis, com o intuito de garantir uma austeridade financeira a longo prazo.

We present long-slit spectroscopy of some new Herbig-Haro objects and outflow systems discovered
in the frames of Byurakan Narrow Band Imaging Survey (BNBIS) performed on 1 m Schmidt telescope
of Byurakan Observatory. Spectroscopic observations were carried out with 6 m telescope (Russia) using
SCORPIO2 spectral camera. All selected objects are associated with deeply embedded infrared sources in
the molecular clouds. Long-slit spectroscopy allows to obtain position velocity diagrams of the emission
structures like Herbig-Haro objects. Velocity fields of the outflows from IRAS 06277+1016 infrared source
in Mon R1, from V963 Mon and 2MASS 06084223-0657385 in Mon R2 as well as from IRAS 06212-1049
are presented. Our spectroscopic data revealed bipolar outflow nature of the outflows associated with

Published: July 2023

The time spent waiting is an important problem regarding patient satisfaction and hospital efficiency, and increases the need for evidence-based information for management to make decisions towards a solution. This study aims to examine the process flows in hospitals based on actual data with the intent to design a better service delivery system and set a pattern in terms of determining the congestion in the process and planning the necessary improvements. For this purpose, the data sets for 2016 pertaining to secondary and tertiary level hospitals in Turkey, which are stored in the central physician appointment system (CPAS), are investigated. The data is analyzed through pre-processing, cleaning and transformation stages. Congestion patterns are determined by days and hours spent in hospitals. Monday is found to be the day with the highest patient density and the longest wait time in Turkish hospitals. It is observed that wait times are shorter on Wednesday in the middle of the week, while they are longer on Friday, the last working day. Additionally, when analyzed by working hours, it is determined that the first 2 hours in the morning (9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m.) is the period when most patients are examined. The lunchtime (between 12.00 p.m. - 1.00 p.m.) and the afternoon from 4.00 p.m. to 5.00 p.m. are the times when patient density is the lowest, but average wait time is the longest. Turkish hospitals are found to be particularly congested on some days and during some hours regarding patient wait times. Thus, policy recommendations can be developed specifically to the days and times when congestion patterns are identified rather than suggesting a general policy. This study is the most comprehensive study conducted in Turkey through process data. The working model is reproducible in different countries and regions.

Published: July 2023

El presente artículo plantea una reflexión sobre la imagen del joven consumidor digital a través del análisis de la película Ron da error (Smith y Vine, 2021). Tras mostrar la relación entre el cine y la juventud y bosquejar el contexto tecnológico actual, se toman en consideración las tesis del filósofo Byung-Chul Han para profundizar en la película y extraer el retrato que ofrece del consumo juvenil en un entorno hiperconectado. Las conclusiones muestran cómo el consumo digital aliena a los jóvenes en un entorno tecnológico irrenunciable que los aleja de todo aquello que los hace humanos y los despoja de su individualidad en favor del poder de los algoritmos que aportan los robots.
Surgical repair of ruptured gastroduodenal artery aneurysm caused by duodenal ulcer: A case report
Authors: Almadwahi Nabeel , Alkadri Ali , Ahmed Faisal , Al-wageeh Saleh , Algazali Adam , Badheeb Mohamed
Published: July 2023

Gastroduodenal artery (GDA) aneurysm rupture is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, which is often associated with a high mortality rate if diagnosis or intervention is delayed. Here, we report a case of a 70-year-old man who presented with acute, severe, diffuse abdominal pain and bloody vomiting for two days. The abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a moderate hemoperitoneum and enhancing focal area in the epigastric region, indicating the ruptured GDA aneurysm. An urgent laparotomy confirmed the diagnosis, and the ruptured GDA was successfully treated by ligation. Fortunately, the patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery and was discharged without complications. In conclusion, early diagnosis and intervention are crucial in reducing the mortality rate associated with GDA aneurysm rupture. Although endovascular repair is the preferred treatment modality, surgical repair may be necessary in cases of hemodynamic instability, unamenable anatomy, unavailable equipment, or lack of subspecialty experience. Thus, physicians must be vigilant in identifying the symptoms of this rare condition and act quickly to provide appropriate treatment.

Published: July 2023

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of preoperative transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) in evaluating perianal abscesses and fistulas under a resource-limited setting and compared it with surgical findings as gold standards.

Material and Methods: A retrospective study conducted between February 2017 and March 2020, involving 85 patients who were presented to the emergency department with suspected perianal suppurative conditions and underwent TPUS with a 4- to 7-MHz curved transducer, were enrolled. Perianal abscesses and fistulas were classified according to the American Gastroenterological Association criteria and Parks’ classification. Data on patients’ characteristics, TPUS findings, and operative findings were analyzed. The sensitivity and accuracy of preoperative TPUS in detecting lesions were assessed and compared with the surgical findings as gold standards.

Result: The mean age of study participants was 32.12 ± 13.83 years and there were 69 (81.2%) men and 16 (18.8%) women. The TPUS findings were consistent with surgical results in 74 out of 85 patients. In 11 out of the 85 cases, preoperative TPUS missed the diagnosis, and in 5 (6.7%) out of 74 cases, TPUS showed other abnormalities. Perianal abscesses, fistula, and mixed abscesses (with fistula or sinus) were observed in 29 (39.2%), 34 (46%), and 6 (8.1%) cases, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy of TPUS in detecting perianal abscesses and fistulas were 86%, 100%, and 87%, respectively. TPUS correctly detected all perianal abscesses with their subtypes (sensitivity of 100%, excellent degree of correlation, k = 1). In the case of fistulas, the accuracy of TPUS in detecting subtype fistula was 87.5% (excellent degree of correlation, k = 0.81); however, it showed low sensitivity in identifying suprasphincteric fistula (5/10, 50%). Additionally, the accuracy of TPUS in detecting the number of external openings was 87.5%, with a reasonable degree of correlation (k = 0.78). However, the accuracy of TPUS in detecting the site of internal openings and tracts of the fistula was 82% and 95%, respectively. Within a mean follow-up of 6.571 ± 1.72 months, there was a recurrence in one fistula patient.

Conclusion: Although the TPUS was not precise enough to diagnose suprasphincteric fistulas, it provides good diagnostic accuracy in identifying perianal abscesses and fistulas. Under resource-limited settings where MRI is unavailable or under emergencies, we recommend TPUS as the first diagnostic test for patients with perianal abscesses and fistulas.

A produção de energia solar fundamenta-se principalmente na natureza física da radiação solar e a quantização da irradiação solar são importantes em cenários como mercados de geração e fornecimento de energia solar. No entanto, a irradiação solar não é facilmente mensurável e acessível a sensoriamento, principalmente devido a questões de custo, manutenção e requisitos técnicos de calibração. Portanto, este trabalho propõe um modelo de rede neural profunda como regressor para estimar a irradiação solar global dentro do cenário brasileiro. Para isso, foram utilizados dados do Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia do Brasil (INMET) de 304 estações meteorológicas entre 2019 e 2022, abrangendo mais de 19 milhões de dados meteorológicos horários. Os resultados apresentam a previsão dos valores medidos de seis grandezas: hora, temperatura, umidade relativa, velocidade do vento, precipitação e pressão atmosférica. Além disso, o modelo de estimação da irradiação foi validado com base no desenvolvimento e validação de uma estação meteorológica responsável por coletar dados meteorológicos locais da cidade de Cornélio Procópio, Paraná.

For the purpose of analyzing empagliflozin, a stability indicating high performance thin layer chromatographic method was developed. This method was optimized using design of experiment. In order to optimize the process, independent variables such as the proportion of isopropyl alcohol in the mobile phase, the duration of time that the chamber was saturated and the distance of mobile phase travelled were considered. On an aluminum plate that had previously been coated with silica gel, development was carried out with the assistance of twin trough glass chambers in ascending lines. The findings from these studies led to the selection of a mobile phase that had a composition of ammonium acetate (2 %), triethylamine and isopropyl alcohol in the ratio of 4:1:5 (V/V/V), and this mobile phase was utilized in the process of method development using central composite design approach. The saturation time was established at 10 minutes, and the ultraviolet detection was performed at a wavelength of 237 nm. The value 0.82 was discovered to be the retention factor (Rf ) for empagliflozin. The method was linear, precise and accurate over the entire concentration range examined (100-600 ng band-1), along with correlation coefficient value of 0.992. The proposed method is quick and selective, and a straightforward method of sample preparation and analysis for empagliflozin in its bulk and commercially available dosage forms. The stability of the drug was tested under a variety of different stress conditions in accordance with ICH guidelines, and the results obtained from the force degradations indicate that the developed method is appropriate for stability studies.

Thyme essential oil (TEO) is a prominent essential oil reported to have diverse properties and biological activities including anti-inflammatory. This research aims to encapsulate TEO in prepared microsponges for the purpose of controlled drug delivery and reduce the frequency of drug administration by enhancing its bioavailability. For the preparation of TEO loaded microsponges, the quasi-emulsion diffusion technique was used by employing dichloromethane as solvent, polyvinyl alcohol as a stabilizer and ethyl cellulose as polymer. The formulation variables such as altering the concentration of PVA and EC were used for optimization and characterized by FTIR, SEM and evaluated for particle size, in vitro drug release and entrapment efficiency and further subjected for in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. results showed that all the dispersions were in the micro-size range with good entrapment efficiency and release profile. The percent inhibition of protein denaturation by TEO loaded microsponges was found within the significant range at various concentrations.

A relatively recent area of research known as neutrosophic statistics deals with data that are ambiguous, indeterminate, and inconsistent. By embracing the idea of neutrosophy, which denotes the existence of three components in a statement: truth, falsity, and indeterminacy, it broadens the application of classical statistics. One of the significant offshoots of statistics is life-time data analysis. Traditional statistical methods only account for variation within the data and calculate lifetime observations as accurate numbers. Actually, there are two different kinds of uncertainty in data: fluctuation between observations and fuzziness. As a result, analysis techniques that solely employ precise lifetime data and ignore fuzziness use incomplete information and produce false results. This paper sought to generalize hazard rates, survival functions, and parameter estimates for fuzzy Gompertz Distribution. Simulation studies are implemented to examine the performance of the fuzzy Gompertz Distribution. The results show that the fuzzy Gompertz Distribution has better flexibility in handling over the standard Gompertz Distribution.

Aim of study: To evaluate the performance of DSSAT and AquaCrop models in the estimation of soybean and grain maize yield under water stress conditions in a semi-arid region.
Area of study: Kermanshah, Iran.
Material and methods: AquaCrop and DSSAT were assessed to simulate soybean and maize. Both models were calibrated using field data. Field experiments were performed in a randomized complete block design with eight and four irrigation treatments for soybeans and maize, respectively with three replications. Measures of Normalized Root Mean Square Error (nRMSE) and Nash-Sutcliffe Model Efficiency were used to evaluate the accuracy of the models. For this purpose, simulated values of leaf area index / green crop canopy, grain yield, biomass, and soil moisture were compared with measured data.
Main results: Results indicated that the CROPGRO-Soybean in DSSAT software simulated more accurate crop growth of soybean than AquaCrop. The average nRMSE of the DSSAT model for estimating soil moisture, leaf area index, grain yield, and biomass were 6%, 14%, 16% and 20%, respectively. For maize, AquaCrop simulated crop growth more reliably than CERES-maize. The average nRMSE of 3%, 10%, 13% and 27% of the Aquacrop model in simulating the parameters of soil moisture, green crop canopy, biomass, and grain yield.
Research highlights: Considering the better performance of AquaCrop for maize and DSSAT for soybean in the study area, it is not possible to propose a specific model to simulate the growth of all crops in a region.
An application of MoblieNet on distinguishing river otter and sea otter
Authors: Wang Zekai
Published: July 2023

Sea otters are in great danger nowadays while river otters are free of worrying about predators, and they occupy some common habitats. Hence, it is meaningful to develop a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifier aiming at distinguishing these two species when rescuers are confused. This paper illustrates a developed model of MobileNetV2 with the support of the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) attention module, and the model is well-performed in recognizing accuracy, memory usage, time consumption and portability. The result shows that the accuracy rises by 2.6% compared with the original version though at the cost of 61% growth in both inferencing time and flash usage. The final model is capable to be deployed on any smart device which can install a browser and call the service of a camera, enabling users to tell sea otters from river otters under wild circumstances rapidly, accurately, and immediately. This study serves as a reference for a better understanding of animal recognition.
