Authors: Lubacha Judyta , Rakoczy-Garus Roksana
Published: February 2025

The main objective of this research is to analyse how community initiatives implement the concepts of the circular economy in their activities, thus affecting their immediate environment. The consideration started by presenting and systematising the definition of the circular economy and locating its meaning in the urban space. Sixteen interviews were conducted with various non-profit and for-profit initiatives across Poland to illustrate and learn about the mechanism of the circular economy in urban space, as implemented by bottom-up initiatives. The research focuses on initiatives that reduce the waste and negative impact on the environment by both producers and consumers. The findings were analysed using the 9R concept. The research made it possible to identify which strategies are most implemented by urban initiatives. Moreover it showed that implementing the circular economy model is possible with the cooperation of producers, that consumers need initiatives that offer a space for circularity.

Evaluation of mechanical stability of dog erythrocytes under the influence of cryoprotectants
Authors: Denysova O. M.
Published: February 2025

The mechanical stability of erythrocytes is a critical factor in ensuring their effective functioning during storage, transportation, and cryopreservation. The objective of this study was to ascertain the impact of diverse cryoprotectants, including glycerol, sucrose, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), polyethylene glycol-1500 (PEG-1500), and hydroxyethyl starch (HES), on hemolytic damage to dog erythrocytes subjected to mechanical stress. For this purpose, dog erythrocytes were incubated in varying concentrations of cryoprotectants and NaCl. The cells were subjected to mechanical stress by stirring the suspension in a container filled with plastic beads at room temperature. The resulting hemolysis was evaluated spectrophotometrically. The results demonstrated that the most pronounced stabilization of erythrocyte membranes was observed during incubation with PEG-1500 and HES, while high glycerol concentrations caused membrane destabilization. Sucrose demonstrated a dual effect: at low concentrations, it exhibited protective properties for cellular membranes, while at higher concentrations, enhanced membrane vulnerability to stress. The results demonstrated that DMSO at all studied concentrations did not significantly change the mechanical stability of erythrocytes compared to the control group. Our findings indicate that an increase in salt concentration in the extracellular medium is associated with a reduction in the mechanical stability of dog erythrocytes. The effect of cryoprotectants on the mechanical stability of erythrocytes was found to be closely related to their physicochemical properties. This highlights the importance of precise selection of cryoprotectant concentrations to improve the results of red blood cell storage and transportation. The conclusions of this study are important for further optimization of technologies for the long-term storage of canine erythrocytes, in particular in cryobanks

Saliva is an important factor in maintaining dental and oral health which plays a role in protective functions. The protective function is carried out by increasing saliva secretion which can be measured through flow speed, volume, pH and viscosity. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of chewing gum containing xylitol, sorbitol, and a combination of xylitol-sorbitol on increasing saliva pH. This research is a quasi-experiment research carried out in March 2022 at the Dental Health Program Study of Health Polytechnic of Palembang. The research sample of 60 people from the Dental Health Department was grouped into three groups. Each group was treated with chewing gum containing two pieces of xylitol, sorbitol, and a combination of xylitol-sorbitol for five minutes. Saliva measurements are carried out using a pH meter. Data were analyzed using a one-way anova test with a 95% confidence interval. The mean salivary pH in each group showed a significant increase (p<0.05). OnThe group that chewed gum containing xylitol had an increase in the mean saliva pH of 1.839, in the group that chewed gum containing sorbitol there was an increase in the mean saliva pH of 1.698, and in the group that chewed gum containing a combination of xylitol-sorbtiol there was an increase in the mean saliva pH of 1.868. There was a significantly increase in the mean pH of saliva in the three groups of subjects after chewing gum (p<0.05), but no significant mean differences were found between treatment groups (p>0.05). Chewing gum containing xylitol, sorbitol, and a combination of xylitol-sorbitol can reduce the risk of dental caries by increasing saliva pH.

So, the study primarily aimed to examine whether visual, print and internet ARs were affected by seasonal change. The study also aimed to indicate the trends of visual/ print/ and internet ARs over time in the light of seasonality. Furthermore, it was also aimed to make AR estimates for the next year with the best performing methods covering ARIMA and ETS. Methodologically, R programming language and its libraries were used together with ARIMA and ETS time series models. The data set consisted of a monthly ARs series consisting of 180 rows covering the period between January/2007-December/2021 and having a sufficient number of observations for the application of the models. Data were analyzed with R and next year’s forecasts were done with ARIMA and ETS. The study revealed that all AR types were affected by seasonal changes in the specified period and included seasonality, i.e. specially in the summer months.  Additionally, it was observed that AR types have different trends despite containing seasonality. The study found that visual ARs denoted a slight downward trend including seasonality during the period. It was also indicated that print ARs reflected a very rapid and drastic downward trend covering seasonality. The study also revealed that internet ARs showed a very rapid and sharp upward trend compared to the other two AR types despite having seasonality. Furthermore, taking into account the calculated error metrics, it was found that the ARIMA model showed the best estimation performance in both i.e. visual and internet ARs. On the other hand, the ETS model indicated the best estimation performance in print ARs. Accordingly, estimations of the visual/print and internet ARs for the next year were made with the best performing methods. It was pointed out that estimated ARs included seasonality in the summer months and revealed similar results to the previous trends based on historical data.

Authors: Sayed Sania , Telang Omkar , Yadav Gourish
Published: February 2025

Purpose: Cataract surgery aims to improve visual acuity and refraction, but refractive changes over the long term remain underexplored. This
study aims to assess the timeline of changes in spherical equivalent refraction (SER) and ocular parameters over a 2-year follow-up period after
cataract phacoemulsification surgery. Methods: This retrospective observational study included 256 eyes of 160 patients who underwent cataract
phacoemulsification surgery between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022, at one private/charitable hospital. The patients were followed up
for 2 years post-operatively, with measurements of keratometry, anterior chamber depth (ACD), central corneal thickness (CCT), and axial length
(AL) taken at 1 month, 1 year, and 2 years post-surgery. Spherical equivalent refraction (SER) was assessed at each visit, and changes in ocular
parameters and SER were analyzed. Results: At 1 month, 83.5% of eyes achieved the target SER, with 92.3% at 1 year and 82.7% at 2 years. A
myopic shift (0.32 ± 0.21 D, p < 0.001) occurred in 33.6% of eyes, while a hypermetropic shift (0.35 ± 0.22 D, p < 0.001) occurred in 45.2% of eyes
over the 2-year follow-up period. Significant changes in ACD were observed between 1 month and 2 years (p = 0.007), and there was a significant
decrease in CCTbetween 1 month and 1 year (p < 0.001). No significant changes were observed in AL. The greatest changes in SER occurred in the
first 12 months, with smaller shifts occurring in the second year. Conclusion: The study reveals significant refractive changes within 2 years postcataract surgery, primarily a hypermetropic shift. These changes are associated with changes in ACD and corneal curvature, emphasizing the need
to consider long-term refractive adjustments when planning cataract surgery and setting expectations.

Authors: Jaiswal Isha , Jadhav Sneha , Kulkarni Vasudha
Published: February 2025

Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths in both developing and developed countries. The non-small-cell
lung cancer accounts for 85% of all lung cancer cases. The degree of pulmonary fissure completeness (PFC) is an important parameter for surgeons
while performing lobectomy surgeries, a standard procedure for non-small-cell lung cancer. Fissural anatomy in cadaveric specimens might be
more representative of the findings which surgeons might expect during thoracic surgery. Therefore, the objectives of the current study were to
estimate degree of Pulmonary Fissure Completeness (PFC) in cadaveric lung specimens & to estimate their Fissure Development Score (FDS) &
Fissure Sum Average (FSA). A cross-sectional study was conducted over a period of 2 months on 48 lun Methodology: g specimens obtained
during routine dissection. Parameters like circumference & thickness of lungs, depth of fissures were recorded to estimate PFC, FDS & FSA.
Results: Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS Version 20. Mean & standard deviation was calculated for the relevant parameters.
Regression analysis was done for certain parameters. P – values of <0.01 were regarded as statistically significant. Inclusion of degree Conclusion:
of pulmonary fissure completeness (PFC) as an assessment model for determining the risk of lung cancer patients might lead to better postoperative
results. A decreased FSA score also decreases the postoperative morbidity of patients.

The article consists of the results and observations of the scientific study done at a tertiary care centre which aims to assess postoperative analgesia
after landmark guided ESPB using 0.375% isobaric ropivacaine. Seventy patients with lower limb fractures above knee were consecutively
divided into two groups: 35 patients underwent only SAB and 35 patients underwent both SAB and ESPB. Intraoperative BP, heart rate,
postoperative VAS score, regression of sensory and motor blocks were assessed for 24Hrs. Postoperative VAS scores in 24hrs were found to be
significantly less in the ESPB group as compared to the control group. The patients who underwent ESPB had postoperative analgesia of 1023.42 ±
134.26 minutes whereas the control group who underwent only SAB had 183.85 ± 35.70 minutes, (p-value < 0.001). The study emphasizes the
significance of landmark guided erector spinae plane block which provides significant postoperative analgesia and better satisfaction score in
patients undergoing lower limb surgeries under spinal anaesthesia and can be used as an alternative to USG, especially in limited resources settings.

Authors: Bhandari Kyna , Beswick Emily
Published: February 2025

Due to the recent rise in popularity of short-form media, especially amongst adolescents, there is little research about its possible effects and
implications. This experiment aims to explore the impact of watching TikTok, in comparison to reading, on the attention capability and memory
capacity of adolescent participants. In this experiment, participants watched TikTok or read a book for 7 minutes and were then required to
complete sub-tasks from The Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination Version 3 (ACE-III) focused on assessing attention and memory. Ten
participants (8 female and 2 male), aged between 15 and 18 years old, and who were all fluent in English, completed the assessments. Participants
had lower scores on the memory tasks after exposure to the TikTok condition, but scores remained the same on attention tasks in both conditions.
We found that participants expressed more difficulty answering questions and required more time to think of their answer after being exposed to the
TikTok condition. This study found that watching TikTok can have a detrimental effect on the memory and attention of adolescent participants.
Participants typically scored lower on the subtasks from the ACE-III examination after the TikTok condition than the reading condition and
expressed more difficulty in answering questions during the TikTok condition. They required more time to think and were less sure of their answers.
Further research should be carried out with larger sample size to determine the long-term effects of short-form media and test these conditions with
more participants to obtain more accurate results.

The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and nature of Orthopedic-Traumatology surgical procedures, to identify the main pathologies encountered and to analyze the characteristics of patients in a second-reference hospital in Mali. This was a retrospective descriptive study lasting six months from March 1 to August 31, 2023. Included in this study all the usable files of patients regardless of their age, sex, profession admitted to the department for an orthopedic or trauma pathology whose management required surgery. Two hundred and fifty-one (251) surgical procedures were selected, i.e. 20.9% of all surgical procedures in the hospital. A male predominance was found with a sex ratio of 2.4. The age group of 21 to 40 years was the most affected by operable lesions of the musculoskeletal system. The predominant socio-professional class was represented by farmers and breeders. Treatment before hospital admission was traditional in 55.2% of cases. The injuries were traumatic in 69.7% of cases. The pelvic limb was the most common location (68.6%) with a predominance of the leg segment (29.5%). The most common pathologies were fractures and soft tissue wounds. Patients were operated on in emergency in 168 cases (66.8%). Osteosynthesis, debridements and amputations were the most frequent surgical procedures. Orthopedic and trauma surgery represents an important part of the surgery at the Sominé Dolo Hospital in Mopti; one of the second reference hospitals located in the center of the country.

This paper focuses on leveraging a cutting-edge 3D state-space model for a holistic eco-friendly assessment in petrochemical operations. - By applying the ecological carrying capacity theory and the three-dimensional state-space model, this research aims to unleash the next frontier of sustainability in the petrochemical industry. - The proposed methodology will enable advanced and comprehensive eco efficiency evaluation in petrochemical operations. - Through the integration of the ecological carrying capacity theory and advanced modeling techniques, this research seeks to revolutionize sustainability assessments in the petrochemical sector. - The utilization of the cutting-edge 3D state-space model will provide a more advanced and accurate understanding of eco-friendly practices in petrochemical operations. This research presents a unique approach distinct from existing literature, which primarily examines business eco efficiency from behavioral motivation and strategic perspectives. In contrast, this paper introduces a novel three-dimensional state-space model to evaluate the ecological efficiency of petrochemical operations. By combining the ecological carrying index and state space, this model represents the ecological impact of petrochemical operations in a three-dimensional geometric space. It considers petrochemical operations as a significant factor exerting pressure on natural resources and the natural environment. In this three-dimensional state-space model, the three axes represent different dimensions of petrochemical operations. The first axis represents the economic status, which quantitatively describes the financial aspects of the operation. The second axis represents the utilization of resources, capturing the extent to which resources are consumed in the operation. The third axis focuses on the impact of the operation on the environment, allowing for a quantitative assessment of its ecological footprint. By incorporating these dimensions, ...

Background: Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (NMV/r) and molnupiravir are oral antiviral drugs approved for the treatment of early symptomatic patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 at high risk of progression to severe disease in Japan.
Objective: This study evaluated, from a Japanese payer perspective, the cost-effectiveness of NMV/r compared with molnupiravir among patients with COVID-19.
Methods: This cost-effectiveness model describes the COVID-19 disease history and the impact of antiviral treatment on short-term and long-term outcomes. Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir was compared with molnupiravir, and in the scenario analysis NMV/r was compared with standard of care over a lifetime horizon.
Results: When compared with molnupiravir, NMV/r showed higher quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) (15.752 vs 15.739) and higher total cost (¥6 248 014 vs ¥6 245 829 [US $44 136.86 vs $44 121.42]). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was ¥164 934 (US $1165.12) per QALY gained, which was lower than the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold in Japan (¥5 000 000/QALY [US $35 320.71/QALY]). In the scenario analysis, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was ¥3 646 821 (US $25 761.66) per QALY gained. One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that NMV/r was cost-effective compared with molnupiravir and standard of care consistently. All results of one-way sensitivity analysis showed that the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were below the WTP threshold in Japan. The result of the cost-effectiveness acceptability curve showed that the probability that the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was below the WTP of ¥5 000 000/QALY (US $35 320.71/QALY) was 100.00%.
Conclusion: Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir is cost-effective compared with molnupiravir and standard of care from a Japanese payer perspective. This study provides evidence for the cost-effectiveness of NMV/r for patients with COVID-19.
