DRUG-PHYTOCHEMICAL INTERACTIONS: AN UNUSUAL IMPEDIMENT TO ACETAMINOPHEN ABSORPTION BY PHYTOCHEMICALS OPENS UP NEW CONCERNS FOR ITS SAFETY
Authors: Lawal Babatunde , Odoala Kelechi
Published: January 2023

Aim This study was aimed at evaluating the impact of phytochemicals of
Aframomum melegueta (Alligator pepper; AM) seeds on the bioavailability
of acetaminophen (N-acetyl-p-aminophenol; APAP) and amlodipine. Methods
The everted intestinal sac model was used to assess the transfer of
Acetaminophen and amlodipine across the GIT wall. A portion of the GIT
was excised, everted, filled with physiological solution with both ends
ligated to make a closed loop, and immersed in a beaker containing a
concentration of the test drug either alone or in the presence of AM
seed extract (AMSE). After a period of time to achieve transfer
equilibrium, the everted tissues were removed, blotted dry on an
absorbent paper and drained into a test-tube. The concentration of the
test drug was determined in these serosal fluids to assess transfer
efficiency. Results The seed extract severely inhibited the intestinal
transfer of acetaminophen by as much as 82.4% while amlodipine transfer
was enhanced up to 94.5%. Serosal concentration of acetaminophen in the
absence and presence of AMSE were 7.62 ± 0.95 µg ml-1 and 1.34 ± 0.96 µg
ml-1 (P<0.001), while that for amlodipine were 2.54 ±1.03 µg
ml-1 and 4.94 ± 0.739 µg ml-1 respectively.. Conclusion The depression
of APAP transfer was suggested to be as a result of chemical interaction
with nitric oxide produced by the interaction of the phytoestrogens in
the extract on GPCR-bound estrogen receptor. This type of interaction
may have serious health consequences.

Hydromagnetic Flow of Casson Fluid Over a Stretching Plane Through Porous Medium
Authors: Maurya Deepak , Deo Satya , Maurya Pankaj Kumar
Published: January 2023

The current analysis focuses on the MHD effects of a steady Casson fluid
flowing over a stretching sheet in the porous medium. To examine the
properties of non-Newtonian fluid, a mathematical model for Casson fluid
is developed. Similarity transformation is used to convert higher order
nonlinear governing partial differential equations (PDEs) into ordinary
differential equations (ODEs). Analytical expressions of flow
characteristics like velocity and skin friction coefficient are produced
by applying the proper boundary conditions. Reports on specific
instances of skin friction coefficient and fluid velocity
(horizontal/transversal) are supplied. For various values of flow
parameters, such as Casson parameter, suction velocity, conductivity,
and permeability parameter, fluid flow characteristics, i.e.
velocity profiles, and skin friction coefficient are sketched and
analysed. MSC (2020): 76A05, 76S05, 76W05, 35C05
Evaluation of low-dose vaginal misoprostol in pregnancy terminations below 34 weeks of gestation: Time to change the dose?
Authors: SIVRIKOZ TUGBA SARAC , Demir Omer , Telek Savci , Tengilimoglu Onur , Celik Helin , Ince Sule Birol , Yogurtcuoglu Eylem , Kalelioglu Ibrahim , Has Recep
Published: January 2023

Objective: To evaluate of the effectiveness of low-dose (LD) vaginal
misoprostol administration, where dose adjustment was made by taking
into account the gestational week and cesarean section (C/S) history in
termination of pregnacy (ToP). Design: Retrospective observational
cohort study. Setting: A single tertiary center Population: 563 patients
who opted ToP under 34 weeks of gestation. Methods: Outcomes were
ascertained by health record review and compared between subgroups
according to gestational weeks and previous C/S history. Main Outcome
Measures: Total misoprostol administration time, total labor time, total
misoprostol dose, >1 ToP method, uterin rupture, uterine
atony Results: 63% (357) of 563 cases with pregnancy termination were
below the 24th gestational week (Gx). The remaining 206 cases (Gy)
(37%) were between 24 and 34 weeks of gestation. The rate of C/S
history was statistically significantly higher in Gx (p=0.030). While a
single termination method below 24 weeks was sufficient in 94% of
cases, this rate remained at 86% in Gy (p=0.002). There was no
difference in the complication rate between the groups according to the
gestational week or the presence of a prior C/S (p>0.05).
Concusions: The present regimen is an effective method with low maternal
morbidity and high success without increasing the total treatment time.
Especially in patients with a history of C/S where the ‘experience of
ToP with misoprostol’ have relatively high risk , and in all ToPs below
34 weeks, achieving a high birth rate without increasing the uterine
rupture rate suggests that it is a safe approach.
Fracture of Be and its alloys - Webb Space Telescope revisited
Authors: Rafique Muhammad Musaddique Ali
Published: January 2023

NASA/ESA/CSA joint venture James Webb Space Telescope is about to be
launched. It is hypothesized to operate in near-infrared range. It is
also hypothesized to unveil early star formation, galaxies, and universe
due to its orbit, point in orbit and orbital motion. It has been under
manufacturing for over 20 years at a staggering cost of 10 billion US
dollars (most expensive scientific experiment in history). Beryllium
(Be) is chosen to be element for construction of its main mirrors due to
its high stiffness, low density, low linear coefficient of thermal
expansion (α) in cryogenics and high thermal conductivity. It is
followed by gold (Au) layer deposition on its (Be) surface to enhance
its sensitivity towards infrared radiation as later is hypothesized to
bear superior properties. However, serious mistakes have been made in
selecting this material for this application. Owing to its crystal
structure (hexagonal close packed (hcp)), slip planes (basal, prismatic
and pyramidal) and mechanisms of their activation, Be necessitates easy
fracture at cryogenic temperature. It has anisotropic properties and
prone to transverse fracture under tensile loading. Furthermore, its
ductile to brittle transition temperature is very low making it entirely
unsuitable for such an application. It is one of most expensive metals
on planet. This study constitutes revisiting these fundamental
properties and mechanisms which were entirely ignored during materials
selection thus rendering whole project useless.
Seminoma in androgen insensitivity syndrome: a case report
Authors: Castro Orielle Kyra , Guiang Frances Jane , Soliman Mary Claire
Published: January 2023

Background: The association of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
(CAIS) and malignancy has only been described in case reports worldwide.
As such, risk association of tumorigenesis is considered lower and
related to age, in comparison to partial androgen insensitivity syndrome
(PAIS). Case Presentation: We report on a 24-year-old patient presenting
with palpable hypogastric mass with concomitant primary amenorrhea.
Work-up for CAIS was done with the pelviabdominal mass revealing a
seminoma by histopathology. Surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy using BEP
protocol (Bleomycin- Cisplatin- Etoposide) was offered successfully
showing absence of tumor recurrence on end of treatment evaluation.
Conclusion: The complication of malignancy pose challenge to clinicians
for early diagnosis and treatment with androgen insensitivity syndrome.
More so, a multidisciplinary team that will involve the patient and
family in making informed decisions on issues of available treatment
options, gender assignment, and counselling is crucial in order to
promote well-being and to aim at minimizing physical and psychosocial
risks.
Ultralong afterglow and unity quantum yield from a transparent CsCdCl3: Mn crystal
Authors: Liu Yeqi , Zhang Xiangzhou , Wang Xiaojia , Yan Shao , Liang Yanjie , Zhang Yuhai
Published: January 2023

Transparent afterglow crystals are keenly desired for three-dimensional
information storage. Herein, CsCdCl3 perovskite crystals were grown by a
programmable cooling procedure in a hydrothermal reactor. The pristine
crystal showed an abnormal optical behavior where the absorption
increased by 2.3 folds at high temperature, leading to a 4-fold boost of
PL intensity. After Mn2+ doping, the PL QY was improved to nearly unity.
Importantly, the doped crystals exhibited an ultralong afterglow up to
12 hours after ceasing UV excitation and a high transmittance up to 75%
in the visible region. This work brought a new member to the library of
transparent afterglow crystal, opening up many possibilities to advanced
applications such as volumetric display and three-dimensional
information encryption.

Assessing environmental flow alterations induced by dams and climate change using a distributed hydrological model at catchment-scalel
Authors: Mineda Haruki , Nukazawa Kei , Suzuki Yoshihiro
Published: January 2023

Hydrological alterations can reduce aquatic biodiversity by disrupting
the life cycles of organisms. However, past studies have faced
difficulties in quantifying the impacts of dams and climate change,
which are major drivers of hydrological alterations. Here, we aimed to
evaluate and compare the hydrological alterations caused by dams and
climate change throughout the Omaru River catchment, Japan, using a
distributed hydrological model (DHM). First, to assess the impacts of
dam and climate change independently, we performed runoff analyses using
either dam discharge or future climatic data (two future periods,
2031-2050 and 2081-2100 × three representative concentration pathways).
Subsequently, we derived indicators of hydrologic alterations (IHA) to
quantify changes in flow alterations by comparing them to IHA under
natural conditions (i.e., without dam or climate change data). The
runoff analysis was calibrated and validated by comparing with daily
streamflow at a site with minimal effects of substantial abstraction,
and showed high reproducibility from 2010 to 2019 (Nash-Sutcliffe
efficiency = 0.921–0.964). We found that dams altered IHAs more than
climate change. However, on a catchment-scale standpoint, climate change
induced wider ranges of flow alterations, such as low flow metrics along
the tributaries and uppermost main stem, suggesting a catchment-level
shrinkage in important corridors of aquatic organisms by reducing
upstream length and water level. We also observed that the altered flow
by water withdrawals were ameliorated by the confluence of tributaries
and downstream hydropower outflows. Our approach using a DHM captured
the various patterns of flow alterations by dams and climate change.
A Stress Test for the HPTD-M Transdisciplinarity through Alchemical Psychology
Authors: DA SILVA GUIMARÃES MARTINS DA COSTA LEONARDO
Published: January 2023

Many authors tend to think of Alchemy, especially the European Alchemical Tradition that remained until the 17th century, as a predecessor to modern chemistry, but it is much more. Alchemy arose in a context where there was no separation between the natural sciences, philosophy, psychology, and cultural traditions. In this context of the 17th-century European Alchemical Tradition, the Modern Western Culture emerges, based on the 18th-century technoscience development, as per the Enlightenment or “Age of Reason”, Newton’s classic physics, and Descartes mechanism.  Nowadays human sciences tend to replicate mechanical patterns of hard sciences. The human conscience is not inherent to biological systems, and human processes can´t be well predicted like mechanisms. This is the basis of the Holopraxis Transdisciplinary Management (HPTD‑M) theory and praxis. So, the aim of this paper, in this connection, is to show the universality of the HPTD-M models, when stress-tested through the Alchemical Tradition, especially considering Hillman´s view in Alchemical Psychology.  Tradition, philosophy, art, and technoscience are the four epistemic ways according to HPTD-M, the four main disciplines in a transdisciplinary approach. The alchemical work or opus can be divided into four parts, which relate to earth, water, air, and fire. Edinger describes these main alchemical operations, among others that we will detail below based on this author: Coagulatio, Solutio, Sublimatio, and Calcinatio. Coagulation" has to do with solids, "solution" with liquids, "sublimation" with gases, and "calcination" with fire. Also in the alchemical tradition there are four stages of the opus alchemica, which is the alchemical process of transmuting cheaper metals into more precious ones. It had four stages: nigredo (black), albedo (white/silver), citrinitas (yellow), and rubbed (red/gold). Naturally, the alchemical process was more than chemical or physical. Besides that four-element framework, Alchemy has also many dualities or complementarities involved. This author has created an alchemical model of quaternary complementarities to be compared to the already existing HPTD-M Model. The Alchemical Tradition corroborates the HPTD-M framework, through the result of this stress test represented by the analytic and synthetic models for Alchemical Tradition (Table 1 and Figure 3, respectively), in the same quaternary complementarities pattern, which suggests the universality of HPTD-M as a theory and praxis.

Published: January 2023

Atopic dermatitis is a chronically relapsing inflammatory skin condition that has profound impacts on quality of life of patients and their family. The aim of this study is to investigate the psychological stress in parents of children with atopic dermatitis in Korea, using data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). This cross-sectional study included parents of participants under 19 years of age (970 with atopic dermatitis and 5,733 without atopic dermatitis after excluding those who meet the exclusion criteria) from the 2009 to 2012 KNHANES. The psychological stress state was evaluated with the following four questionnaire items: self-perception of stress, depressed mood, suicidal ideation, and diagnosis of depression by a physician. After adjusting for age, gender, education level, occupation, and marital status, logistic regression analyses indicated that mothers of children with atopic dermatitis had a higher frequency of stress perception (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.46 (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.22–1.74), p < 0.01) and suicidal ideation (aOR 1.40 (95% CI 1.1–1.79), p < 0.01) than those without atopic dermatitis. In contrast, fathers of children with atopic dermatitis did not show a significant difference in all items compared with those of children without atopic dermatitis. Understanding the psychological stress in parents of children with atopic dermatitis is important for clinicians, since evaluation, management and support for parents, especially mothers, of children with atopic dermatitis are required.

Economic Burden of Palmoplantar Pustulosis in Sweden: A Population-based Register Study
Authors: Löfvendahl Sofia , Norlin Jenny M. , Schmitt-Egenolf Marcus
Published: January 2023

The aim of this study was to estimate the economic burden of palmoplantar pustulosis, a chronic relapsing skin condition commonly occurring in combination with psoriasis vulgaris. Using data from the Swedish National Patient Register and Swedish Prescribed Drug Register for 2015, the study estimated all-cause and palmoplantar pustulosis-specific healthcare resource use (inpatient stays, physician visits and drug use) for 14,715 patients with palmoplantar pustulosis, and compared these both with matched controls from the general population and with patients with psoriasis vulgaris (without palmoplantar pustulosis). Mean annual direct costs for a patient with palmoplantar pustulosis was higher compared with costs for the general population (3,000 vs 1,700 Euro, p < 0.001). Compared with psoriasis vulgaris, more patients with palmoplantar pustulosis had inpatient stays, but fewer had physician visits and psoriasis-related drugs; the overall costs were similar. Only a small fraction of the costs of physician visits and inpatient stays for patients with palmoplantar pustulosis were attributable to specific palmoplantar pustulosis problems, indicating a clear comorbidity burden in palmoplantar pustulosis.

Published: January 2023

INTRODUCTION: Currently, the problem of the influence of the education conditions on the health of the child population is relevant in view of the existence of numerous forms of education and upbringing. AIM: To perform a comparative assessment of the parameters of physical development of children studying in different types of educational organizations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The article presents the results of studies of the physical development of children and adolescents studying in the Cossack cadet corps and in a secondary school of Astrakhan. The study involved children and adolescents of male sex aged 10–17 years. As the main parameters, standard anthropometric and physiometric parameters determined by standard methods, were used. A peculiarity of studying in the Cossack corps is a round-the-clock stay in the school territory, a strict observance of work and rest schedule, regular physical activity and rational diet appropriate to the age. RESULTS: The data obtained indicate a higher physical development of cadets in comparison with schoolchildren. However, the anthropometric parameters of the school pupils corresponded to the average age-related values. Among the cadets of the Cossack corps, here were no children with overweight, and a lower amount of children with deficit of body mass in comparison with schoolchildren. Parameters of lung capacity and dynamometry were reliably higher among cadets, which indicates their better physical fitness. CONCLUSION: Evaluation of physical development of children studying in different conditions shows a positive influence of the conditions of the cadet corps on the harmonious development of children and on their physical fitness. The regular sports activity, daily routine, proper diet create the basics for healthy lifestyle and motivation of children and adolescents to preserve their health in the future.
Clinical Case of Diospyrobezoar Complicated with Acute Intestinal Obstruction
Authors:   Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, Othman H.M. , Petrov V.N. ,   Yudin City Clinical Hospital
Published: January 2023

INTRODUCTION: Bezoars are foreign bodies formed in the digestive tract as a result of ingestion of some indigestible substances: plant fibers, hair and animal dander, chemical compounds. They are mainly found in animals. But although this is an extremely rare pathology of humans, it can be complicated with such threatening conditions as acute intestinal obstruction, decubitus ulcers of the digestive tract, gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation with the development of peritonitis. Bezoars are the cause of acute intestinal obstruction in only 2–4% of cases, but mortality, according to the literature, can reach 30%. Difficulties in the clinical diagnosis of bezoar disease lie in the absence of specific symptoms: it manifests itself as an abdominal syndrome, like a rather wide range of various diseases. Therefore, the importance of informing physicians of various profiles both about the factors provoking the formation of bezoars and about the methods of their diagnosis and treatment is undeniable. The article presents a case report of an 86-year-old female patient with acute intestinal obstruction caused by diospyrobezoar. CONCLUSION: The clinical interest of the presented case lies in its highly illustrative character. We could observe a combination of all predisposing factors for the formation of diospyrobezoar, compare the effectiveness of various methods of instrumental diagnostics and apply the optimal tactics of surgical intervention.

INTRODUCTION: Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are a group of diseases, the only or the main manifestation of which is a pathological process in the pulmonary interstitium. One of factors of the unfavorable course of chronic forms of ILD is progressing fibrosis of the lung tissue. While idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a classic fibrosing ILD with the poorest prognosis, diffuse pulmonary fibrosis can also occur in other ILDs. The progression of the disease leads to restrictive alterations of breathing and to impairment of the diffusion capacity of lungs, which results in respiratory failure, reduced tolerance to physical exercise and disability of the patient. This impedes routing of such patients and limits access to specialized medical care. Restrictive measures introduced in 2020–2021 in connection with a new coronavirus infection, and for elderly people with chronic diseases as well, produced an additional negative impact on the possibility of patients to receive qualified medical care of specialists. In these conditions, the relevance of standard telemedicine healthcare services increased, and there appeared an urgent need for developments of a digital nursing system for chronic patients providing a possibility of active remote communication of a doctor and a patient. This review presents the experience in use of a digital nursing program for monitoring and self-monitoring of chronic non-infectious patients, including those with respiratory diseases. The article presents a clinical case of joint management of a comorbid patient with a severe damage to pulmonary interstitium and the underlying rheumatoid arthritis by pulmonologists and rheumatologists through telenursing. Positive aspects of the remote monitoring are discussed. CONCLUSION: Use of telenursing technology in patients with chronic respiratory diseases may improve clinical effectiveness of treatment of this group of patients as well as reduce the load on the primary healthcare doctors and frequency of untargeted hospitalizations, which, in turn, will reduce the treatment costs.

Authors: Apriantoro Muhamad Subhi , Sabila Regestina Firdaus , Rosyadhi Rozi Irfan
Published: January 2023

The goal of this study is to determine the flow of non-cash payments utilizing the My Pertamina application and the maslahah mursalah perspective. This study employs a literature review or literature study with secondary data sources from journals, books, theses, theses, dissertations, and websites that give credible data for qualitative descriptive analysis. The results of the study indicate that the flow of payments using the My Pertamina application can be made in cash or non-cash using the LinkAja application or a debit/credit card, and the application of the My Pertamina application as a non-cash payment system for purchasing fuel at gas stations is not appropriate from the perspective of maslahah mursalah. Because some requirements for the adoption of maslahah mursalah as Islamic law legislation cannot yet be satisfied. The purpose of this research is to gain a better understanding of the flow of non-cash payments and their application in the My Pertamina application in terms of the benefits of the mursalah, so that My Pertamina can realize the benefits of the mursalah for the broader community and innovate in the future to increase the level of public trust in the My Pertamina application.

Pengelolaan hutan sosial selama ini dijalankan secara manual, sehingga menimbulkan kendala dalam tata kelola organisasi, produksi, dan pemasaran. Pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan dan mengimplementasikan sistem tata kelola dan e-supply chain untuk peningkatan kapasitas perhutanan sosial. Pengabdian ini dilaksanakan dengan pendekatan berbasis masalah, yang terdiri dari pemetaan masalah, survei lapangan, pelatihan, dan implementasi sistem. Pengabdian ini bermitra dengan Gerakan Masyarakat Perhutanan Sosial (GEMA PS) yang mengelola 32.000 hektar lahan hutan sosial dan beranggotakan 60.000 petani hutan dan merupakan anggota tim percepatan penyelesaian konflik agraria dan penguatan reforma agraria.  Kegiatan pengabdian diikuti oleh tim pengabdian dan para pengelola perhutanan sosial. Pengabdian ini berhasil mengimplementasikan sistem yang merupakan pengembangan dari hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan. Dengan implementasi sistem tata kelola dan e-supply chain, pengabdian ini telah membantu para petani hutan untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan mereka karena alur komoditas bisa diidentifikasi secara lebih akurat dan komoditas pertanian bisa sampai ke pasar dengan jalur distribusi yang pendek. Selain itu, dalam hal tata kelola organisasi, para pengelola perhutanan sosial akan mampu melakukan koordinasi dengan petani hutan dan memiliki informasi mengenai kemajuan pemanfaatan hutan sosial oleh petani hutan.

Published: January 2023

Air merupakan kebutuhan dasar manusia dan makhluk hidup lainnya. Pemakaian air bersih yang tidak memenuhi standar kualitas, dapat menimbulkan gangguan kesehatan. Tahun 2019, di Kabupaten Banyumas ditemukan 150 penderita penyakit leptospirosis dan 4 penderita diantaranya meninggal dunia. Awal Januari tahun 2020, ditemukan 4 penderita kasus positif , antara lain di wilayah Kecamatan Sumpiuh 2 kasus, Kecamatan Ajibarang 1 kasus, dan Kecamatan Somagede 1 kasus penderita meninggal dunia.
