Tetanus was a life-threatening infection causing muscle contractions. The need for qualified collaborative management was crucial due to the potential for poor prognosis and complications. Dentists can contribute significantly to the treatment, as the mouth can be one of the entry points for tetanus-causing bacteria. A 45-year-old male tetanus inpatient was referred from the Intensive Care Unit to the Oral Medicine Unit at Universitas Indonesia Hospital to evaluate the possible source of oral focus infection. A boil was on his back, suspected to be the main port of entry for tetanus bacteria. The definitive diagnosis was Tetanus of moderate to severe severity (Philips score 24, Dakar score 1, Ablett score 2). Extra oral examination shows lip inflammation. An intra-oral examination cannot be done optimally despite his trismus. The oral foci of infection found were chronic gingivitis and pulp necrosis on 47 48, in addition to the diagnosis of cheilitis simplex. Since the comprehensive management of the foci of infection could only be done in an outpatient setting, the nurse was instructed to clean the intra-oral using sterile gauze moistened with NaCl 0.9% solution to improve the patient's oral hygiene (OH). Comprehensive management includes periodically visiting to maintain OH, administering muscle relaxants, antibiotics, and analgesics, and administering Tetanus toxoid vaccination. The patient was recovered. Management of tetanus cases needs a multidisciplinary approach. Dentists are pivotal in identifying oral infection sources and ensuring its management. A dentist's role in the collaborative management of tetanus patients might significantly contribute to the patient's prognosis.

Published: February 2024

In the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) an arterial line is often inserted in critically unwell children to allow for reliable blood pressure monitoring and access to arterial blood for point-of-care blood gas analysis and laboratory testing. However, arterial catheterisation is a procedure that carries the risk of serious complications including impaired tissue perfusion, thrombotic events and limb ischaemia.1 The typical clinical features of iatrogenic acute limb ischaemia (ALI) in PICU patients include: (1) pallor (pale discolouration, mottling, cyanosis), (2) perishingly cold (cold to touch, use of temperature probe), (3) pulseless (absent distal pulses in affected limb), and (4) 3As (increasing analgesia requirements, anxiety and agitation). Importantly, other classical features of ALI such as pain, paralysis and paraesthesia are less useful in a PICU setting where patients are often sedated and ventilated.

Cattle diarrhea poses a significant risk to the global livestock sector, leading to considerable economic setbacks and impacting the well-being of animals. This research aimed to assess the clinical and hematological changes associated with idiopathic diarrhea in cattle in the Baghabari area of the Sirajganj District of Bangladesh. The study involved surveying dairy cattle to record their case history, followed by the collection and measurement of hematological indices in those suffering from idiopathic diarrhea. The survey identified 39 diarrheic crossbred cattle (2 males and 37 females), ranging in age from 1 month to 11 years. The findings revealed a higher prevalence of diarrheal cases in cows (94.87%) compared to oxen (5.13%), particularly among pregnant cows (64.86%). The most common historical observations included repeat breeding (81.08%), abortion (78.38%), decreased milk production (43.24%), fever (15.64%), and congenital defects (17.95%) in diarrheic cattle. Hematological analyses indicated a significant increase in lymphocyte and immunoglobulin levels, while eosinophil, basophil, and red blood cell distribution width levels were notably lower in diarrheic cattle compared to healthy ones. However, other hematological parameters remained unaffected. In summary, the study suggests that bovine diarrhea may influence hematological profiles and body physiology, with the extent depending on the disease’s etiology and complexity.

Published: February 2024

Background: The ear discharge is a common presenting symptom in medical practice affecting all age groups but primarily children. It is a big menace in developing countries like India. Ear discharge can result from varied infective and clinical conditions of the ear.

Aims and objectives: This study was done to determine the current infective etiological causes of ear discharge, their antibiograms, and associated risk factors.

Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study of laboratory records of all the ear swabs taken from patients with ear discharge in the Calcutta National Medical College and Hospital, for 15 months. A total number of 266 patients of both genders between 1 year and 80 years visiting the E.N.T department with ear discharge are taken as the study population. All pus swabs from infected ears were inoculated on blood agar, MacConkey agar, and Sabouraud Dextrose agar with chloramphenicol. Furthermore, smears for Gram staining and potassium hydroxide mount were made. Identification of the pathogens was done by standard biochemical tests. Sensitivity tests to antimicrobial agents were done on Mueller–Hinton Agar using the Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion method.

Results: Out of 266 ear swabs, 231 (86.84%) had microorganisms isolated. Out of 266 patients, 140 (52.64%) were females and 126 (47.36%) were males. Pseudomonas species was the commonly isolated organism 98 (42.42%) followed by Staphylococcus aureus 92 (39.80%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae 17 (7.35%). Pseudomonas species were mostly sensitive to imipenem/cilastatin followed by meropenem and amikacin.

Conclusion: Most cases of ear discharge were found in females and the age group of 11–18 years. The most common bacteriological cause of the ear discharge was Pseudomonas species followed by S. aureus. Carbapenems, cefepime, piperacillin-tazobactam, levofloxacin, linezolid, and voriconazole are effective antimicrobial agents for the empirical treatment of ear infections with discharge.

Assessment of wind energy resource in southern Algeria
Authors: Diaf Said , Belhamel Maiouf , Haddadi Mourad , Louche Alain
Published: February 2024

Wind has been proven as a cost effective and reliable energy source. Technological advancements over the last years have placed wind energy in a firm position to compete with conventional power generation technologies. Algeria has a vast uninhabited land area where the south (desert) represents the greatest part with considerable wind regime. In this paper, an analysis of wind energy utilization as a viable energy substitute in six selected sites widely distributed all over the south of Algeria is presented. In this presentation, wind speed frequency distributions data obtained from the Algerian Meteorological Office are used to calculate the average wind speed and the available wind power. The annual energy produced by the Fuhrlander FL 30 wind machine is obtained using two methods. The analysis shows that in the southern Algeria, at 10 m height, the available wind power was found to vary between 160 and 280 W/m2, except for Tamanrasset. The highest potential wind power was found at Adrar, with 88 % of the time the wind speed is above 3 m/s. Besides, it is found that the annual wind energy generated by that machine lie between 33 and 61 MWh, except for Tamanrasset, with only 17 MWh. Since the wind turbines are usually installed at a height greater than 10 m, an increased output of wind energy can be expected. However, the wind resource appears to be suitable for power production on the south and it could provide a viable substitute to diesel oil for irrigation pumps and electricity generation.

Published: February 2024

Les déchets de matières organiques proviennent essentiellement des industries agroalimentaires (des activités domestiques, d’abattoirs,…) et des eaux résiduaires urbaines. Ces déchets constituent une nuisance environnementale à prendre en charge pour la sauvegarde durable de notre environnement. La valorisation de cette matière organique serait une solution judicieuse pour atténuer leurs effets nocifs. Par ailleurs, l’application d’un procédé de bioconversion, ‘la digestion anaérobie’, offre la possibilité de combiner le traitement de ces déchets et la production d’une énergie renouvelable qui est le biogaz. Ce gaz riche en méthane CH4 possède un pouvoir énergétique élevé et peut être utilisé dans de nombreuses applications comme: le chauffage, la cuisson, la production d’électricité, l’éclairage et en tant que biocarburant et pouvant être injecté dans le réseau de gaz de ville. Notre travail consiste à étudier la digestion anaérobie des déchets ménagers (déchets de cuisine) et plus particulièrement l’influence du pH sur le rendement en biogaz. Durant cette étude, nous avons aussi suivi l’évolution des paramètres des la pollution à savoir, la DCO et la DBO5, ainsi que le volume du biogaz produit en fonction du temps avec un pH ajusté et aussi avec un pH non ajusté. Les résultats obtenus ont permis de démontrer la possibilité de produire une quantité importante de biogaz inflammable pendant une courte durée pour le digesteur à pH ajusté (milieu favorable pour l’activité bactérienne) par rapport au digesteur à pH non ajusté.

Published: February 2024

The presence of renewable energies on the distribution grid is continuously evolving, influencing more considerably the overall comportment of the power system. The intermittent character of the primal energy (wind, sun, water) increases the complexity of the problem, thus new test facilities must be developed. As power electronics are generally part of these production systems, high frequencies are involved so the test facilities must be well adapted. The present paper proposes the Real-Time (RT) Hybrid Simulator as a very flexible test facility, well suited for the study of grid connected electrical devices.

Published: February 2024

This paper presents a simple control structure based on the sliding mode algorithm for an isolated-loaded induction generator (IG). The machine delivers an active power to a dc-load via a converter connected to a single capacitor on the dc side. Since the converter/capacitor model is nonlinear, the sliding mode technique constitutes a powerful tool to ensure the dc-bus voltage regulation. The computer simulations are provided to verify the validity of the proposed control algorithm.

Authors: Fahloul Djamel , Benmadi Fouzia , Boudraa Soussene
Published: February 2024

Le but de ce travail est l’étude de l’influence de la température (55, 65, 75 °C), de la pression (20, 40, 60 cm Hg) et de la découpe (rondelle, cubique, bâtonnet) sur la cinétique de séchage sous vide de la pomme de terre (variété Spunta), ainsi que l’estimation du coefficient de diffusivité massique et de l’énergie d’activation pendant le séchage sous vide. Les résultats ont montré que la température est la variable la plus importante lors du séchage des pommes de terre. La pression a un effet moins important. L’étude de la découpe a montré que la forme rondelle est la forme la plus appropriée pour le séchage avec une surface d’échange plus importante. Les valeurs de la diffusivité massique varient entre 9,48 × 10-9 et 3,26 × 10-8 (m2/s) et les valeurs de l’énergie d’activation sont respectivement 18,51; 25,71 et 26,92 (kJ/mole) pour les pressions (20, 40, 60 cm Hg). Les résultats du coefficient de diffusivité massique et de l’énergie d’activation sont en accord avec la littérature. L’utilisation d’un test organoleptique basé sur 4 critères (aspect, texture, couleur et saveur) a permis de déterminer le couple optimal de séchage température-pression (température 65 °C et pression 20 cm Hg).

Published: February 2024

Senegal is one of the developing countries and its dependence upon imported fossil fuels can only be offset by the sustained exploitation of its indigenous resources. Wind energy is renewable and environment friendly, which can be harnessed for various end-uses. A precise knowledge of wind energy regime is a pre-requisite for the efficient planning and implementation of any wind energy project. However, due to the absence of a reliable and accurate Senegalese Wind Atlas, further studies on the assessment of wind energy in Senegal are necessary. The main purpose of this paper is to present and to perform an investigation on the wind energy potential of the northern coast of Senegal along the Atlantic Ocean. Therefore, in this study, wind data collected over a period of two years at five different locations in this region of Senegal were evaluated in order to figure out the wind energy potential along the northern coast of Senegal. The data from selected stations were analyzed using the two-parameter Weibull probability distribution function. With an annual mean wind speed of 3.8 m/s, an annual energy of 158 kWh/m2 could be extracted. It is found that the potential uses of wind energy in these locations are for water pumping in rural areas. The study presented here is also an attempt to promote wind energy in Senegal and to bridge the gap in order to create prospective Wind Atlas of Senegal.

Authors: Lima Julian Israel , Schwantz Patrícia Inês , Brambilla Flávio Régio
Published: February 2024

This theoretical essay aims to analyze the theoretical aspects of culture and information and communication technologies from the perspective of territoriality. To this end, the methodological path followed has a theoretical wedge based on reference authors on the subject. The first part examines the bibliography on regional development and territoriality, highlighting economic and social aspects. It then explores the main concepts and definitions of culture and development. The last part analyzes the conjuncture of information and communication technologies, culture, and territorial development, narrowing down the theoretical gaps that underpin the theme. At the end of the paper, the theoretical framework shows that territorial development stems, among other things, from cultural actions, since there is the economic contribution of the arts, heritage, and especially the cultural and creative industries, added to cultural rights, with a focus on inclusion, access, empowerment, and integral development for the well-being of citizens.

World agriculture faces the challenge of increasing food production, while expansion of the cultivated area is restricted. To meet this demand, it is necessary to increase the productivity of the crops, the work of genetic improvement being crucial. In this context, 20 commercial genotypes of safrinha corn were tested, in the no-till system in the rural zone of the municipality of Conceição do Araguaia-PA, with the objetive of identifying those with the best agronomic performance. The research was carried out at the João e Maria farm, in the rural area of this municipality, in the agricultural year 2021/2022, with sowing in March. The experiment adopted an experimental design of blocks at random, with 20 treatments (genotypes) and 3 repetitions. The following characteristics have been determined: plant height, ear height, number of rows per ear, number of grains per row, ear length, weight of one hundred grains and grain yield. The data were submitted to the analysis of variance by the F test and the means were compared using the Tukey test, with a significance level of 5%. The results of the research showed that, under the soil and climatic conditions in which they were assessed, the genotype KWS 0221 showed satisfactory results in relation to productivity. Genotypes KWS 0121 and KWS 0321 have also shown promising performance. Therefore, these materials are highly recommended for planting in the harvest in the southeast of Pará, due to their favorable agronomic characteristics and their adaptability in the region of the study.

This article aims to identify the main architecture factors harmful to the resocialization process and highlight the importance of the quality of the internals and externals spaces of prison to promote quality of life and through this, favor the practice of teaching and learning withing the institution. After all, it is throught education that the human beign can develop.
Deaf and hearing perceptions about visual pedagogy in science classes
Authors: Tavares Fernando Rodrigues
Published: February 2024

The challenge is still great for all students to feel included in the activities proposed by the school. Referring to deaf students, this challenge also presents itself, as it is necessary to understand their identities, culture and sign language. The objective of this article is to analyze deaf and hearing perceptions about visual pedagogy in science classes. The methodology used was a qualitative approach, descriptive in nature and of a case study type. The technique used was interviews with deaf students, a hearing teacher and a Libras interpreter. The results showed that there are signs of Visual Pedagogy through some classes using visual elements. It was also evident that the teacher's pedagogical practices need to be redefined, in the sense of thinking about more visual strategies for teaching deaf people and using them in the classroom.

Published: February 2024

The energy compensation system has attracted the interest of several sectors, including the public sector. In this context, this work presents a technical dimensioning and techno-economic feasibility of installing a photovoltaic generation plant, considering the service to a Brazilian public university campus. Four systems were designed using NREL's PVWatts and SAM tools with the NSRDB database, analyzing 6 economic viability situations. The results show a payback of 6 years and 3 months for a 545kWp system without energy storage and 10 years and 5 months for a 180kWp system with energy storage. The variations in the results depend on the implementation considerations of each of the proposed systems, such as the energy availability demand contract and the savings on the bill made possible by the implementation method.

Published: February 2024

Cabotage in Brazil, despite offering cost reductions for the transportation of large cargo quantities, has been underutilized. The country boasts an extensive coastline and a demographic distribution favorable to the use of coastal shipping as a means of cargo transportation. The research aimed to identify the main barriers related to costs affecting coastal shipping in Brazil. The methodology relied on bibliographic and documentary research, encompassing books, journals, official documents, reports, as well as government websites. Five barriers were identified: Barriers related to fleet depreciation and renewal costs; Operational cost barriers; Capacity-related costs of vessels; Initial kilometer cost barriers; and Intermodality cost barriers. The conducted study could contribute to enhancing decision-making regarding cargo transportation in the country, while also encouraging investment decisions and promoting coastal shipping.
Analysis of a logistics flow int the light of VSM 4.0: a case study of in a Distribution Center (DC) in Brazil
Authors: Chiká Leonardo Lucas Paulos , Nunes Fabiano de Lima
Published: February 2024

This article presents an application of Value Stream Mapping 4.0 (VSM 4.0) developed by Meudt et al. (2017) in the detailed identification of activities in information flows in a logistics Distribution Center (DC). The order generation, order picking, checking, consignor checking, and shipping flows were mapped. The research method applied was a case study in a distribution center of a large Brazilian industry in the metallurgical sector that manufactures consumer goods for retail. In this practical application, the approach produced satisfactory results as it was possible to identify and measure the informational indicators of VSM 4.0: the digitization/automation rate (DR) was 9%, the data utilization (DU) rate was 0%, and data availability (DA) rate of 16%. From this data, it was possible to verify that the company does not have a proprietary information flow, making this information sparse and management difficult, as 84% of the information is manual, that is, without the use of digital media, with low ERP use. The practical applicability of VSM 4.0 was verified in a logistics environment where information flow is significant. Furthermore, we observed that VSM 4.0 could contribute to the identification of waste in operations management and provide information for digital transformation inflows and processes, which are so crucial for the migration to Industry 4.0.
