O tromboembolismo pulmonar (TEP) é caracterizado brevemente como um coágulo ou um êmbolo que se desprendeu de algum local e afetou o pulmão. Essa condição é considerada grave visto que cerca de 30% das pessoas não tratadas adequadamente vão a óbito. O tromboembolismo venoso (TEV) é uma condição que atinge de 5% a 10% dos pacientes hospitalizados que vão a óbito no Brasil. Desta maneira, protocolos foram prescritos a fim de reduzir estes números, porém não é de fato o que ocorre em todos hospitais, logo os índices de pacientes afetados por TEV e TEP são substancialmente altos. Um número mostra o quão grave são os casos, pois cerca de 30% dos casos de TEV vão evoluir para uma TEP. A presença de um trombo na circulação aumenta a resistência vascular, logo sobrecarrega o ventrículo direito deste paciente. O que de fato é preocupante é que o paciente hospitalizado tem um risco dobrado de chances devido a hipercoagulabilidade e também pela estase venosa do mesmo. Com este trabalho, buscamos analisar e compreender fatores que possam facilitar e melhorar a condição de vida dos pacientes com TEP e TEV, a fim de assegurar um melhor manejo, diagnóstico e tratamento adequado para os mesmos, para que desta maneira estes tenham condições de vida mais satisfatórias que atualmente. A estratégia utilizada contou com estudos, tendo por base uma análise em plataformas como o Google Acadêmico, PubMed, SciELO, Medical Subject Heading (MeSH), nas quais cada fonte de dados contou com um estudo acerca dos títulos, assuntos e tipos específicos na língua portuguesa e inglesa. O estudo acerca do assunto, a clínica e o diagnóstico evidenciaram a diversidade a cerca de TEP, desta forma fica claro que uma rotina, um protocolo e uma melhor adequação se faz necessária, a fim de melhorar a vida do hospitalizado. Lembrar que a estratégia de profilaxia do mesmo deve ser realizada baseada no escore de Carpini. Assim, o tratamento e o manejo do paciente pós cirúrgico devem ser iniciados através dos anticoagulantes. Dessa forma, adequações devem ser realizadas, a fim de apropriar todas as redes de saúde, públicas ou particulares, nos critérios contra TEP e TEV. Este estudo oferece um olhar novo sobre o assunto abordado, a fim de ajudar na redução da mortalidade hospitalar para pacientes pós-operados e que acabam desenvolvendo TEP. Este estudo pode ainda mostrar que existem sim chances de evitar a porcentagem atual na mortalidade destes pacientes e assim, garantir uma adequação na saúde brasileira a fim de garantir que todos os hospitalizados possam ter o melhor tratamento contra os processos tromboembolismos que afetam nossa saúde.

Food and bile micelle binding of quaternary ammonium compounds
Authors: Takeru Sumiji , Sugano Kiyohiko
Published: September 2023

Background and Purpose: Physiologically-based biopharmaceutics modeling (PBBM) has been widely used to predict the oral absorption of drugs. However, the prediction of food effects on oral drug absorption is still challenging, especially for negative food effects. Marked negative food effects have been reported in most cases of quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC). However, the mechanism has remained unclear. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the bile micelle and food binding of QACs as a mechanism of the negative food effect. Experimental Approach: Trospium (TRS), propantheline (PPT), and ambenonium (AMB) were selected as model QAC drugs. The oral absorption of these QACs has been reported to be reduced by 77% (TRS), > 66% (PPT), and 79% (AMB), when taken with food. The fasted and fed state simulated intestinal fluids (FaSSIF and FeSSIF, containing 3 and 15 mM taurocholic acid, respectively) with or without FDA breakfast homogenate (BFH) were used as the simulated intestinal fluid. The unbound fraction (fu) of the QACs in these media was measured by dynamic dialysis. Key Results: The fu ratios (FeSSIF/ FaSSIF) were 0.67 (TRS), 0.47 (PPT), and 0.76 (AMB). When BFH was added to FeSSIF, it was reduced to 0.39 (TRS), 0.28 (PPT), and 0.59 (AMB). Conclusion: These results suggested that bile micelle and food binding play an important role in the negative food effect on the oral absorption of QACs.

Published: September 2023

This investigation aimed to analyze microsatellites after long term selection for egg production in the selected line (RIRS) of Rhode Island Red chicken and its control line (RIRC) maintained at the institute. Genomic DNA samples isolated from 24 randomly selected birds of RIRS and RIRC line were investigated at 24 microsatellite loci. Microsatellite alleles were separated on 6% urea-PAGE and their sizes were estimated with the help of Gel Doc 2000 system. Allelic data was analyzed. Analysis revealed 2 to 7 alleles in RIRS and 2 to 9 alleles in RIRC line across 24 loci with their sizes ranged from 84 to 276 bp. Observed number of alleles per locus was 4.04±0.23 in RIRS and 4.42±0.33 in RIRC. Allele frequency ranged from 0.083 to 0.667 in RIRS and 0.042 to 0.833 in RIRC. Approximately 34.02% of alleles in RIRS and 39.62% alleles in RIRC were line specific. The frequencies of the specific alleles ranged from 0.083 to 0.667 in RIRS and 0.083 to 0.883 in RIRC. Line specific alleles with higher frequencies can be used in line identification. Corresponding effective number of alleles and Shannon's information index averaged 3.32±0.19 and 1.25±0.06 in RIRS and 3.66±0.32 and 1.30±0.08 in RIRC. These diversity estimates indicated that the control line was more diverse than the selected line and certain specific microsatellite alleles were getting fixed in the selected line.

Published: September 2023

The present study was conducted to characterize Ghagus, a native breed of chicken for production, adaptability, semen and egg quality traits in comparison with PD4 birds. Sex wise body weight and shank length of Ghagus birds recorded at 40 weeks of age were significantly lesser than those of PD4 birds. Ghagus birds had significantly higher tonic immobility (TI) duration and asymmetry of shank length than those of PD4 birds but no differences were observed for number of attempts to induce TI and asymmetry of shank width and middle toe length. Mean shank width and middle toe lengths were significantly higher in PD4 birds. Ghagus birds produced significantly lesser number of eggs up to 40 weeks of age with smaller egg size. With respect to semen quality traits, Ghagus roosters had significantly better appearance and concentration of spermatozoa than PD4 birds. Study of egg quality traits revealed significantly better albumen index in Ghagus as compared to PD4 birds. However, significantly higher egg weight, yolk, albumen and shell weights were observed in PD4 birds as compared to Ghagus breed with no significant differences in other egg quality traits. The study indicated that, there is a scope for improvement of this important native chicken breed for growth and production traits as semen and egg quality traits were at desirable levels.
A micro analysis of fodder production and marketing in Bihar
Authors: SINGH R K P , SINGH K M , JHA A K , KUMAR ABHAY
Published: September 2023

Production of rice-wheat crop residues, the main dry fodders, is inadequate in north Bihar. In an unorganized fodder market, middlemen dictate the term of fodder trade. The fodder purchased in villages is mostly sold in urban and peri-urban areas. Fodder is processing at every level in marketing channel, particularly in fodder surplus region as paddy straw is purchased from farmers and sold after processing (chaff cutting). The wholesalers are generally engaged in storage of fodder. Farmers are getting only 35 % of consumers' price and 46 % of consumers' price is taken by middlemen as profit margin, which is much higher as compared to food grain marketing. Inadequate storage facilities and space sometimes force producers to untimely dispose of fodder produce. To promote fodder production and trade, it is necessary to improve storage systems - on-farm as well as en route to distant markets. Fodder markets are unorganized and informal and role of public sector/government is negligible. Fodder markets are mostly without any dedicated market place, and are often stationed along roadsides and without legal credentials. Having specific market places may facilitate flow of market information, increase interaction among buyers and sellers and facilitate transparency and competition leading to fairer prices mode.
Intervention points for small ruminant development in India: Insight from a field level survey
Authors: SURESH A , CHAUDHARY K R
Published: September 2023

The present study was undertaken to identify the intervention points for small ruminant sector development, assess socio-economic status of small ruminant farmers as well as reach of institutions and technology in small ruminant development. The study was undertaken by using field level information collected through primary survey from 400 farmers of Andhra Pradesh (undivided) and Rajasthan. The technologies with regard to vaccination have exhibited larger level of adoption compared to other technologies. The most important constraints faced by farmers were with regard to veterinary care, feed and fodder and live animal marketing. The institutional sources, as epitomized by veterinarians of state government turned out to be the most important source of treatment (67%). Self-treatment without consultation is practiced by almost 100% farmers. Farmers heavily depend on the common pastures for feed and fodder requirement. Penetration of insurance was very low. The credit absorption was only about 7%, and that too from money lenders. Another major constraint was with respect to marketing systems- the live animal markets are highly under developed- the farmers continue to rely on traditional market channels. The study points to the need to improve efficacy of institutional mechanisms including reforming livestock markets, strengthening veterinary care systems with improved man power, efforts to conserve pasture land and improve its productivity, and, channeling greater credit and insurance coverage for the small ruminant sector.
Genetic Assessment of the suitability of selected methods for species level determination of arsenic in some contaminated inceptisols of West Bengal
Authors: SINHA B , BHATTACHARYYA K
Published: September 2023

Elevated level of arsenic in agricultural soils cause potential toxicity to human health, plants and microbes through food-chain, the magnitude being the highest in Bangladesh, followed by West Bengal, India. Since the toxicity and bioavailability varies with arsenic species, it is essential to develop and standardize suitable methodology to estimate arsenic species separately in different matrices. In this study, an attempt has been made to assess the suitabilities of three different extractants, namely orthophosphoric acid (1M H3PO4, pH 1.39), ammonium dihydrogen orthophosphate (1M NH4H2PO4, pH 4.14) and di ammonium hydrogen = orthophosphate [1M (NH4)2HPO4, pH 8.26], in determining the arsenic species in selected contaminated inceptisols of West Bengal. The results showed that the extraction efficiency varies with the composition of the extraction solution. The lowest recovery (3.74-17.61%) were obtained with the 1M (NH4)2HPO4, pH 8.26, the highest recovery (34.89-73.29%) obtained with the 1M H3PO4, pH 1.39 and 4.04-52.30% recovery was obtained using 1M NH4H2PO4, pH 4.14.

Published: September 2023

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of potassium and zinc fertilizer on status and content of potassium and zinc fractions and their effect on crop yield, nutrient uptake and nutrient availability in the soil. Significant increase in grain yield, straw yield, K uptake, and different K fractions in the soil (exchangeable K, water soluble K, Morgan’s extractable K, lattice K and total K in the soil) were recorded with increase in K levels from 0 to 60 kg K/ha. Zinc fertilization in wheat also significantly increased crop yield and Zn uptake but interaction between K and Zn was not found to be significant in respect of yield, uptake, and various K and Zn fractions. Water-soluble K showed significant and positive correlation with exchangeable K (r= 0.928), Morgan’s extractable K (r= 0.983) and lattice K (r= 0.969), indicating rapid equilibrium establishment between these forms. Step wise regression analysis using different pools of K revealed the importance of water soluble K and lattice K influencing crop yield, K uptake by wheat. Similarly, application of 9 kg Zn/ha increased the Zn fractions present in soil and correlation data indicated that these fractions are in a state of dynamic equilibrium with each other. In the present study, DTPA-Zn accounted for 65% and 70% of the variation in grain yield and Zn uptake by wheat, indicating that DTPA-Zn was efficient in providing Zn nutrition to wheat.

Published: September 2023

Wheat production in India is about 70 million tonnes per year which counts for approximately 12 per cent of worldâ€™s production. Being the second largest in population, it is also the second largest in wheat consumption after China, with a huge and growing wheat demand. Major wheat growing states in India are Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Bihar. All of north is replenished with wheat cultivation. Uttar Pradesh, the largest wheat growing region of the country, produces around 28 million tonnes of wheat and Bihar produces around 5 million tonnes. The usual parametric approach for growth rate analysis is to assume multiplicative error in the underlying nonlinear geometric model and then fit the linearized model by â€˜method of least squares'. This paper deals with a critical study of wheat yield of Uttar Pradesh with a non-linear approach. The available data of rice during different years is taken into consideration and different statistical models are fitted for that. The time series data on annual yield of wheat in UP from 1970-2010 were collected from various sources. Growth rates are computed through non-linear models, viz. Logistic, Gompertz and Monomolecular models. Different nonlinear procedures such as Gauss-Newton Method, Steepest-Descent Method, Levenberg-Merquadt Technique and Do Not Use Derivative (DUD) Method were used in this study to estimate the nonlinear growth rates. The results showed that logistic model performed better followed by Gompertz and monomolecular.

Authors: VENKATESH M S , HAZRA K K , GHOSH P K
Published: September 2023

It could be concluded from the above study that growth pattern of short duration mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] significantly influenced tissue Zn concentration at different stages. Plant tissue Zn concentration was moderate to highly correlated with dry matter production throughout the crop growth stages. Based on the quadratic relationship with dry matter production, the critical concentration of tissue Zn was higher (35.0 to 40.5 mg/kg) at early stage (30 DAS) which was reduced at 45 DAS (21.6 to 21.9 mg/kg). Considerable variation was also observed in critical Zn concentration with leaf position. Based on the variability of Zn concentration in plant tissues and relation with dry matter production, young fully expanded leaf at 45 DAS was found to be the efficient sampling plant part for the plant diagnostics of zinc. While, the optimum Zn dose for summer mungbean was quantified 14.5 mg/kg soil.

Authors: Martins Dr. Simone Margaret , Overbey Dr. Julie , Metros Anastasia
Published: September 2023

Multinational corporations are rapidly expanding worldwide, and in order to perform successfully in a global environment, there is a need to employ talents with the right skills. Usually, the organization's international footprint strategy involves expatriate employees performing business operations internationally. Expatriation is challenging due to a high level of failure, resulting in high costs, high turnover rates, and underperformance. This qualitative exploratory case study included the investigation of senior leaders' perceptions of overcoming expatriate failure. Interviews were conducted with 16 senior leaders from oil and gas organizations, which historically have a prominent presence in international markets, to obtain insight into how to overcome expatriate failure and manage international assignment strategies. The conceptual framework that underpins this study is related to three main theories, the global mindset, cultural intelligence, and cultural agility. The global mindset theory contains concepts related to cognitive, emotional, and social capital. Cultural intelligence is the ability to consider differences in a multidimensional environment behaving appropriately. Cultural agility theory is the ability to work in different countries effectively and with people from different cultures, understand the environment, and respond properly. The results included opportunities for improvement in international assignments related to talent management strategy. Recommendations include (a) defining hiring protocols, considering an assessment of employees to understand the appropriateness of the international assignment, (b) establishing solid support
Civil and structural engineering design for the Elizabeth line station at Tottenham Court Road
Authors: Plant Jonathan , Frost Stephen , Roberts Steve
Published: September 2023

The new Elizabeth line station at Tottenham Court Road, delivered by the Crossrail programme, has been an exercise in interface management as well as a feat of engineering. This paper describes the design carried out by the Arup Atkins Joint Venture (AAJV) under contract C134, principally of the Western Ticket Hall box. Nestled in Soho, this was developed within a dense urban grid and the constraints of a residential oversite development above. The team worked closely with London Underground Ltd's engineers at the Eastern Entrance, which was delivered as part of London Underground’s own station upgrade works. The tunnel for the eastbound Elizabeth line passes through the Western Ticket Hall box, which also provided construction access for the sprayed concrete-lined platform and concourse tunnels. Access dates to the site meant that there was insufficient time to complete construction of the box before the arrival of the tunnel boring machine (TBM). Consequently, the need to complete the excavation became critical and the team adopted a bottom-up construction sequence for one of the deepest open shafts ever excavated in central London. The box, formed of elements of diaphragm walls and raft, was constructed before the TBM arrived, and the remaining internal elements completed afterwards.

Influence of Heat Input on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Laser Weld Metal in 2507 Duplex Stainless Steel by Different Welding Speed and Welding Power
Authors: ZHAO Shuai , BI Yaxuan
Published: September 2023

This manuscript attempts to explore the macroscopic morphology microstructural aspects and mechanical properties of different laser welding speed and power on the 2.5 mm thick DSS welding joint. Through the evaluation of 12 groups samples with different welding parameters, we found that the optimal laser welding process parameters were a welding speed of 6mm/s, laser power of 1.6 kW and welding speed of 8 mm/s, laser power of 1.7 kW. When the heat input was 2.125 kJ/cm, the content of ferrite and austenite was relatively uniform, and the ratio was close to 1:1. We found that the hardness of the weld metal zone was slightly higher than that of the base metal, with an average value of 330 HV. When the heat input was 2.125 kJ/cm, the microhardness of welded joint was better than other parameters, reaching 400 HV in the welding metal zone. The tensile strength of the weld was enhanced with the increase of heat input, and the maximum was 900 MPa. Through SEM analysis, the fracture locations of tensile specimens were all in the weld zone, and the fracture morphology had a large number of dimples, belonging to the ductile fracture.
New Norms for AI: Zero Trust—Verify Then Trust
Authors: Wylde Allison
Published: September 2023

This conceptual article highlights an important puzzle concerning the actions of prominent AI industry leaders calling for a six-month halt to the further development and training of AI, while some have already deployed and continue to deploy AI; a so-called arms race. As security risks increase at scale, managing the security of AI is an essential consideration. Although implementing standards for AI is currently a preferred solution for many, this article argues that, on their own, standards may not provide sufficient capability and flexibility. An argument is presented that cyber norms of zero trust for AI (ZTAI) alongside standards are essential for the security of AI, along with a call to action.
Management of Ventral Hernia in Obese Patients: Before or After Bariatric Surgery?
Authors: Elias Bachir , El Hajj Carine , Zeaiter Caline
Published: September 2023

Obesity is a known risk factor for ventral hernias and their recurrences. The timing of ventral hernia repair in obese patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery is still a debatable topic. To this date, there is no consensus, neither for the timing nor for the surgical repair technic. In this chapter, we will review briefly what was already discussed about this dilemma and explore our experience with our retrospective study. If asymptomatic, the ventral hernia should be repaired after bariatric surgery when there is stabilization of the weight loss. Laparoscopic approach is recommended to allow an exploration of the trocars sites and a second look after obesity surgery. An algorithm for ventral hernia management in obese patients is proposed.
Procedural, Substantive, and By-Design Approach toward a Third Stage of Bioethics
Authors: Ribas Ribas Salvador
Published: September 2023

The central idea of this paper is that in bioethics there are two types of discourses or approaches, one procedural and the other one substantive or content approach. The first one seems to be predominant because it responds better to the demand in contemporary times by offering procedures, rules, and guidelines to help healthcare professionals to find solutions to ethical issues, rather than the second one, which is focused on the trait of characters, attitudes, and the moral content. Since the digital era started, data as moral content and systems have become the most valuable resource. This has been manifested in multiple areas such as social network, business, and politics, among others. In medicine, the potential impact of novel technologies based on data like artificial intelligence and machine learning, among others, may bring preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic benefits for patients as well as result in potential issues, and the majority are still unknown. In order to guarantee respect to the new moral content, and compliance with bioethics principles within procedures and systems in the digital era a third approach is required: bioethics by-design.
State-Space Modeling of Weld Bead Geometry in the Gas Metal Arc-Direct Energy Deposition Process Applied to Wire and Arc Additive Manufacturing and Welding Processes
Authors: José Muñoz Chávez Jairo , Nascimento de Souza Lira Margareth , Crisostomo Absi Alfaro Sadek
Published: September 2023

One of the main problems of additive manufacturing with electric arc and welding, in general, is the difficulty in controlling or predicting the output variables and their parameters, as well as creating a model that effectively represents the changes in the main variables involved in the system. These changes during the deposition process can promote the formation of splashes, instabilities, and changes in the geometry of the beads, making the analysis of these variables important, as it will be through them that the quality of the deposit and the desired characteristics will be established. Despite the correlation between the variables, they present nonlinear and chaotic behavior. With this, the purpose of this research is mathematical modeling in state space that allows an approximation to the model in state spaces, an approximation of the real values of the process, and a knowledge of the system composed of a set of input, output, and states related to each other by means of first-order differential equations. The model was validated from depositions via a design of experiments with central composite planning monitored with the use of sensors to capture the characteristics of the beads (e.g., molten pool, width, penetration, and height).
Peri-Operative Management of a Difficult Airway in a Resource Limited Environment
Authors: Fagbohun Omolola
Published: September 2023

Airway management is an essential skill that is relevant to the practice of medicine especially with regards specialties such as anesthesia, intensive care and emergency medicine. This vital skill can be made more challenging in an austere environment with limited facilities and equipment. Being pre-informed on the peculiarity of each patient, developing and mastering necessary skills through regular trainings and having a pre- outlined care plan based on available resources in the immediate environment can mitigate against some of the possible challenges in such environment. Hence, the pre-operative assessment of a patient with a difficult airway is an integral part of the peri-operative workup that helps to predict potential problems, develop a management plan thereby avoiding an unanticipated difficult airway as much as possible and inadvertently preparing for an unanticipated difficult airway in rare instances.
Fetal Origin Programming of the Male Reproductive System
Authors: Fujisawa Yasuko , Tsutomu Ogata
Published: September 2023

The Developmental Origin of Health and Disease (DOHaD) theory, in which the prenatal environment is involved in the development of diseases after birth, has been widely accepted. This theory is widely accepted, and the involvement of the prenatal environment in the development of adult diseases (lifestyle diseases) is almost certain. As an extension of the DOHaD theory, the Testicular Dysgenesis Syndrome (TDS) hypothesis, which focuses specifically on diseases of the male reproductive system, proposes that environmental changes during the embryonic period are involved in the development of a number of diseases of the male reproductive system, such as hypospadias, cryptorchidism, low sperm count, and infertility. A few experimental studies were performed; however, the results have been limited and have not addressed the pathogenic mechanism of TDS. We have conducted research using a mouse model of maternal nutritional deprivation. In this study, under/hyponutrition during fetal life impairs testosterone production in the fetal testis and causes a decrease in sperm count after growth. Further studies elucidated that this may be due to oxidative stress-induced germ cell apoptosis caused by fetal testosterone depletion. The molecular biological background to the DOHaD theory is epigenetic modification, but very few studies have focused on epigenetic modification in TDS, which shares the same background as the DOHaD phenomenon. We will further discuss the contribution of epigenomic modifications in the development of TDS.
The Singularity is Emerging: Large Language Models and the Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Education
Authors: Mistretta Sharon
Published: September 2023

Singularity, posited by Kurzweil in his seminal book, The Singularity is Near, marks a time when artificial intelligence (AI) innovation outpaces the human brain’s capabilities. Large Language Models (LLM) such as OpenAi’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Bing, Google’s Bard, and Baidu’s Ernie place humanity at a pivotal time where mathematical neural networks surpass, benefit, or deter all facets of human existence. AI bots are prone to emergent behavior that reveals unintended or unexpected abilities, such as learning to translate English into additional world languages. Biases embedded in the training database are prevalent, and an ethical layer of humans in the loop becomes necessary to ensure that LLMs provide responses that benefit mankind. Educators and their students grapple with the intrusion of the capabilities of LLMs that render traditional lesson plans and assessments powerless to authentically measure students’ knowledge of a topic. Dialoguing effectively through prompt engineering becomes a necessary skill to harness the power of LLMs. Weary students and teachers emerging from a disruptive pandemic must grapple with how AI is changing the landscape of education. This chapter will examine the impact of LLMs on students, their teachers, and how the education field can harness AI to augment and sustain learning to prepare our stakeholders for teaching and learning in this new age of artificial intelligence.
