Authors: Tapia Hidalgo David I. , Revelo M. Grace E.
Published: August 2024

Los métodos diagnósticos cefalométricos, permiten identificar el potencial de crecimiento mandibular, ayudando a establecer un diagnóstico más preciso y a seleccionar un plan de tratamiento más adecuado. El objetivo del estudio fue examinar la relación entre categoría auxológica, grupo rotacional y tipo de crecimiento rotacional, considerando edad y sexo. Se realizó un estudio observacional transversal en 300 radiografías de perfil donados por tres centros radiológicos de Quito, Ecuador. El análisis cefalométrico, basado en la metodología de Petrovic, permitió identificar la categoría auxológica, el tipo de rotación y el desarrollo mandibular. Se utilizó el software View Box 4 para medir y registrar ángulos y planos relevantes, con datos procesados en Excel y SSPS. Un análisis descriptivo determinó la prevalencia de los grupos rotacionales mandibulares, mientras que la prueba de chi cuadrado se utilizó para examinar la relación entre el tipo de rotación mandibular y la categoría auxológica según la edad y el sexo. El tipo facial con dirección de crecimiento mandibular posterior fue el más prevalente con un (20%). En cuanto a las categoríasauxológicas, categoría 2, fue la más predominante con un (19.3%). El estudio encontró diferencias significativas en las categorías auxológicas por sexo y edad, pero no diferencias significativas con el tipo de rotación. El análisis del crecimiento y desarrollo craneofacial en función de la maduración ósea puede ser crucial para diseñar tratamientos personalizados, adaptados a las características únicas de cada individuo.

Polícia Que Parece Milícia e Milícia Que Parece Polícia
Authors: Bazoni da Motta Jonathan Willian
Published: August 2024

A presente pesquisa tem o objetivo de mostrar os agenciamentos morais e as técnicas de controle social de um grupo de milicianos e de duas políticas de segurança: o Destacamento de Polícia Ostensiva (DPO) e a Unidade de Polícia Pacificadora (UPP), no período de 2007 a 2011, na favela do Batan/RJ. A partir de uma pesquisa etnográfica de mais de três anos no território, que produziu uma série de entrevistas e conversas informais com moradores, defendemos que no período delimitado houve uma governança miliciana no Batan que congregou forças legais e ilegais militarizadas com a finalidade de controlar a moralidade dos moradores e coibir os desviantes. Nesse contexto, milícia e polícia se complementavam na gestão da ordem local, produzindo uma zona cinzenta de atuação ancorada em um mesmo projeto moral.

Published: August 2024

À luz da dificuldade que pesquisadores interessados em avaliar políticas públicas de segurança e combate à criminalidade esbarram, em virtude da escassez de dados, o presente trabalho se propõe a fornecer subsídios metodológicos para a utilização do método qualitativo de estudo de caso como alternativa viável, confiável e rigorosa para tal avaliação. Assim, a literatura especializada concernente ao tema foi analisada com base no método hermenêutico, a fim de interpretar e explicar a utilização do estudo de caso. Como resultados, verifica-se que o método sugerido possui grande potencial para fomentar a literatura de segurança pública, sobretudo no contexto da América Latina, que apresenta as maiores taxas de criminalidade do mundo e escassas publicações de avaliações das políticas de segurança que foram implementadas. O estudo de caso, ao promover uma construção horizontal do conhecimento, tem potencial para esclarecer o motivo pelos quais algumas políticas fracassam e outras logram êxito.

Published: August 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo compreender o perfil da Polícia Militar na cidade de Belém/PA, através das diferenças de atuação dessa agência, conforme a sua divisão de território. Após a exposição dos principais aspectos da atuação policial, primeiramente formais e depois subjetivos, o desenvolvimento culmina com as reflexões acerca dos principais aspectos dessa atuação, que se contradizem entre o discurso declarado da atuação e a prática real. Através do método indutivo para a abordagem e comparativo para os procedimentos, é possível compreender um perfil de atuação territorializado, que é direcionado e se distingue por marcadores sociais da diferença, aplicando-o às polícias de modo geral. As técnicas utilizadas para a execução consistem em levantamento bibliográfico e análise de conteúdo de entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas com agentes que atuam nos bairros do Jurunas e da Batista Campos. Como parte das conclusões alcançadas, pode-se perceber a instituição policial como um instrumento de controle social de grupos marginalizados quanto a raça, classe e território, isolada ou conjuntamente, através da diferenciação da atuação policial conforme o bairro em que esta se localiza.
Physiological assessment of the functional state of workers in neuro-emotional labor of different ages according to the results pre-shift control
Authors: Glukhov Dmitry V. , Yushkova Olga I. , Kapustina Angelina V. , Forwerts Anna Yu. , Kostenko Natalia A.
Published: August 2024

Introduction. Modern working conditions create high tension in the regulatory mechanisms of the circulatory system with a decrease in the functional capabilities of the workers' body, which leads to the development of pre-nosological conditions. The determination of the Myznikov index is aimed at identifying individuals with different levels of adaptation to factors of the labor process and the risk of developing premorbid conditions.
The study aims to evaluate the information content of the Myznikov index in a personalized approach to determining the functional state of the cardiovascular system of workers in neuro-emotional labor.
Materials and methods. Specialists have conducted a physiological characterization of the functional state of the body of locomotive crew workers according to the data of pre-shift medical control. Using a mathematical method based on heart rate and blood pressure, the authors have calculated the value of the Myznikov index and its ideal value. The obtained compliance coefficient made it possible to assess the functional state from acceptable to overvoltage. The Kerdo vegetative index was calculated. The researchers conducted statistical processing of the data obtained using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software.
Results. Research has established statistically significant differences in hemodynamic parameters among locomotive drivers and assistant drivers in four age groups (p<0.02). Individual analysis established a more homogeneous histogram of Myznikov index indicators in workers aged 55–59 years compared to the age group 30–34 years, which is confirmed by the data of the Kerdo vegetative index. The values of the Myznikov index correspond to the state of functional tension in 11.0–16.7% of cases.
Conclusion. The group of machinists of JSC Russian Railways are at increased risk of overexertion and the development of work-related diseases of the cardiovascular system. A personalized analysis of hemodynamic parameters during a pre-trip medical examination revealed values of the Myznikov index corresponding to an unfavorable functional state, which may reduce the level of traffic safety. Assessing the stages of the adaptation process will allow a differentiated approach to the scientific substantiation of health-improving measures.
Limitation. There are limitations due to the peculiarities of collecting (obtaining) physiological data during pre-trip medical examinations.
Ethics. The study was approved by the local Ethics Committee of the Izmerov Research Institute of Occupational Health (protocol No. 4 of 04.14.2021).

Hypersensitive pneumonitis (HP) is an inflammatory interstitial lung disease (ILD) that occurs in predisposed individuals in response to repeated exposure to various aerosol antigens. In 2020 and 2021, specialists made changes to the latest clinical recommendations, to the classification of HP, allowing to distinguish between fibrous and non-fibrous types of HP. The fibrous type is associated with the progression of the disease and an unfavorable prognosis. The diagnosis of HP and its division into types are based on a combination of clinical and anamnestic data, a high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) picture, the results of cytological examination of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung biopsy. Specialists also use lung function tests to determine the progression of the disease. The key diagnostic method is high-resolution computed tomography, which reveals signs of lung tissue pathology ("frosted glass", mosaic density) and signs of damage to the small respiratory tract (centrilobular foci, air traps). In fibrotic HP, experts have identified signs of fibrosis: traction bronchiectasis, reticular changes, decreased lung volume, and the formation of a "cellular lung" is possible. Non-fibrotic HP is characterized by: lymphocytic cytogram type (more than 30% of the total number of cells), while in fibrotic HP lymphocytosis is less common. Experts often use lung biopsies for differential diagnosis with other diseases. In nonfibrotic HP, scientists evaluate the signs of involvement of bronchioles and adjacent alveoli in the inflammatory process, the nature of inflammatory infiltration and the presence of granulomas. Fibrotic HP has bronchiolocentric fibrosis, chronic interstitial pneumonia, peribronchiolar metaplasia and other signs. HP therapy includes the elimination of contact with the antigen, the administration of glucocorticosteroids and/or immunosuppressants, as well as antifibrotic therapy in the presence of a progressive variant of fibrous HP.
The possibilities of ultrasound examination in the diagnosis of joint and peripheral nerve damage in vibration disease: a review of the literature
Authors: Zueva Yanina I.
Published: August 2024

The article tells about the problem of diagnosing vibration disease as a chronic occupational disease affecting the peripheral vascular, nervous and musculoskeletal systems as a result of prolonged exposure to industrial vibration. Due to the need for early detection of this pathology, the author proposed a large number of diagnostic tests aimed primarily at diagnosing changes in peripheral vessels and the nervous system.
There are results of a review of modern research methods devoted to the diagnosis of changes in the musculoskeletal system, osteoarthritis, lesions of periarticular tissues, lesions of peripheral nerves in patients exposed to vibration and patients with vibration disease. Due to the polymorphic clinical picture of the disease, there are currently diagnostic situations in which existing methods do not allow for a reliable diagnosis or differential diagnosis. Special attention is paid to the modern possibilities of ultrasound examination of joints, periarticular tissues and peripheral nerves in the diagnosis of manifestations of vibration disease.
The introduction of an ultrasound examination method into diagnostic practice will improve the quality of diagnosis of ostearthritis, periarthritis, tunnel neuropathies, followed by a timely choice of therapeutic and preventive tactics, which will play an important role in maintaining the health of those workers whose professional activities are associated with an increased level of vibration.
A Critical Appraisal of the Genotypic Features, Phenotypic Drivers and Therapeutic vulnerabilities in Recurrent Meningiomas
Authors: Abikenari Matthew A
Published: August 2024

Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial tumours of the Central Nervous system, responsiblefor roughly a third of all CNS neoplasms, and the most common neuro-oncological diagnosis in neurosurgicalpractice. Meningiomas have an annual incidence rate of 6 per 100,000 people in the United States, with thehighest incidence occurring after the 5th decade of life. Despite substantial advances in the last few decades inour understanding of meningioma biology and neurosurgical oncology, high-grade malignant anaplastic andatypical meningiomas remain incurable with no current disease-modifying therapeutic interventions. This isprimarily due to the highly unknown and heterogeneous nature of meningiomas which carry unpredictablepatterns of mutations, amplification, angiogenesis, proliferation and aberrant signalling pathways across allmalignant and recurrently diagnosed patients. Despite the sporadic pathogenesis of meningiomas, there havebeen promising molecular profiling ventures in characterising the genotypic features, phenotypic drivers andtherapeutic vulnerabilities present in malignant meningiomas over the last decade. Most of these ventureshave relied on emergent integration of proteomics, transcriptomic, whole-exome and single-cell sequencingstrategies to develop patient-stratified therapeutic strategies and prediction models of malignancy andrecurring meningiomas. The current paper outlines the fundamental pathophysiology, tumorgenicity,histological classification schemes, clinical presentations and treatment strategies of high-grade malignantmeningiomas. Lastly, the present paper aims to elucidate the biological drivers and emergent therapeuticvulnerabilities of high-grade meningiomas, particularly on the promising therapeutic role of cytostatic cellcycle inhibitor drugs in suppressing meningeal tumour cell growth and proliferation.
Assessing the Impact of Catastrophic Electricity Loss on the Food Supply Chain
Authors: Blouin Simon , Herwix Alexander , Rivers Morgan , Tieman Ross , Denkenberger David C.
Published: August 2024

The food supply chain's heavy reliance on electricity poses significant vulnerabilities in the event of prolonged and widespread power disruptions. This study introduces a system-dynamics model that integrates five critical infrastructures—electric grid, liquid fossil fuels, Internet, transportation, and human workforce—to evaluate the resilience of food supply chains to major power outages. We validate the model using the 2019 Venezuelan blackouts as a case study, demonstrating its predictive validity. We then explore how more extreme electricity losses would disrupt the supply chain. More specifically, we model the impact of a large-scale cyberattack on the US electric grid and a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) event. A cyberattack severely damaging the US electric grid and allowing for recovery within a few weeks or months would lead to substantial drops in food consumption. However, it would likely still be possible to provide adequate calories to everyone, assuming that food is equitably distributed. In contrast, a year-long recovery from a HEMP event affecting most of the continental US could precipitate a state of famine. Our analysis represents a first attempt at quantifying how food availability progressively worsens as power outages extend over time. Our open-source model is made publicly available, and we encourage its application to other catastrophic scenarios beyond those specifically considered in this work (e.g., extreme solar storms, high-lethality pandemics).
The effectiveness of cash and cash plus interventions on livelihoods outcomes: Evidence from a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Leight Jessica , Hirvonen Kalle , Zafar Sarim
Published: August 2024

Over the last 20 years, a burgeoning scholarly literature has analyzed the effects of cash transfer and cash plus interventions in a wide range of contexts and using a range of empirical designs. We conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the pooled effect of any cash or cash plus intervention on livelihoods-related outcomes (consumption, income and labor supply), ultimately compiling 305 different treatment estimates from 155 treatment arms in 104 studies (and in 43 countries). Using random effects and multilevel models, our findings suggest that cash transfer programming is associated with an increase of between $1 and $2 in monthly household consumption and income per $100 in cumulative transfers, an effect that persists for a period of roughly three years (inclusive of the period of program implementation); this effect is meaningfully larger (as much as $4 larger) for cash transfer programs that also include a cash plus livelihoods intervention. There are no significant effects observed on labor force participation. We also present a range of estimates capturing the longer-term (cumulative) effects of cash transfers on consumption under alternate assumptions.
Seaweed Cultivation: A Cost-Effective Strategy for Food Production in a Global Catastrophe
Authors: Hinge Michael , Grilo Vasco , Jehn Florian , García Martínez Juan , Dingal Farrah , Roleda Michael , Denkenberger David
Published: August 2024

An event such as a large volcanic eruption, nuclear winter or asteroid/comet impact has the potential to seriously reduce incoming sunlight, impacting both the global climate and conventional crop yields. This could have catastrophic impacts on human nutrition, unless the food system can adapt. One possible answer is seaweed, where growth is projected to be less impacted (or even enhanced) by the climate shock due to overturning of the ocean bringing nutrients to the surface. We assess the expected cost of producing dry edible seaweed under the climatic conditions of a severe 150 Tg nuclear winter, using Gracilaria Tikvahiae as a benchmark species. To do this we incorporate projected yields and estimated costs under either a capital intensive or labor intensive model, covering both the cost of cultivation and drying. Overall, we find that seaweed costs would range between $ 400-450/dry tonne for the highest yielding/lowest labor cost clusters, and could potentially be produced in significant quantities even when constrained to shallow waters close to ports. This cost is higher than the current reported ~$300-350/dry tonne price of Gracilaria tikvahiae, reflecting additional capital costs and additional drying requirements during the catastrophe. The cost is also higher than current staple cereal prices on a caloric equivalent. However, given the sharp rise in food prices expected post disaster, it is likely a large scaleup would be justified, offering an important contribution to global nutrition, either via direct consumption or when used as animal feed.
theoraizer: AI-assisted theory construction
Authors: Waaijers Meike , Rosenbusch Hannes , Van Lissa Caspar J. , Roefs Anne , Borsboom Denny
Published: August 2024

The Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) method is a technique for theory construction in which domain experts collaborate to identify causal relationships between variables. However, CLD construction is labor-intensive, and the input required from experts grows quadratically with the number of variables involved. This limits the method to the construction of small graphs. Large Language Models (LLMs), with their advanced text processing capabilities and extensive knowledge base, can efficiently generate large amounts of content, offering the potential to overcome these limitations. This paper presents theoraizer, an R package and Shiny app that enhances CLD construction by integrating LLMs as a digital extension of the expert group. Researchers can use theoraizer to define a list of putative variables, after which it queries the LLM for putative causal links between these variables. This method drastically reduces the amount of work required to arrive at a candidate CLD and provides scientists with a standardized, multi-stage framework for constructing candidate theories.
Calling the Kettle White: How Material Stakes Impact External Racial Classification
Authors: Abascal Maria , Armenta Amada , Halm William , Hopkins Daniel , Sigler Gall
Published: August 2024

Do people define ethnic/racial categories more narrowly or weigh ascriptive criteria more strongly when material stakes incentivize others to identify in certain ways? Realistic group conflict theory predicts as much. We join this theory with recent research that treats ethnic/racial classification as an outcome. We report the results of conjoint survey experiments with two samples, one of undergraduates from diverse ethnic/racial backgrounds, the other of U.S. resident adults. By randomly varying whether respondents racially classify hypothetical profiles completing a scholarship application or an anonymous survey, we examine under what conditions people are more or less likely to classify others as White, Black, Latino, Asian, MENA or POC. We also test whether classification relies more on ascriptive factors (skin tone or descent) when presumed benefits are involved. Our experiments uncover evidence that respondents rely more on ancestry when deciding whether scholarship candidates are White. However, for other classifications, the substantive differences between the scholarship and survey conditions are small, and respondents from different backgrounds behave similarly. These results are consistent with the basic thesis that stakes matter; they also highlight widely shared concerns about fairness and claiming disadvantage inappropriately.

Human Rights are inherent to every individual, yet there are
circumstances and time frames where these rights may be restricted or
revoked by the state in accordance with applicable rules. One such
circumstance is being incarcerated or imprisoned because of unlawful acts
committed by individuals. The research aims to identify the impact of
overcrowded prison conditions on the fulfillment of rights for detainees and
inmates within the Class IIB State Detention Center in Ternate.
Additionally, it seeks to analyze the legal implications of overcrowded
conditions on the satisfaction of these rights. The findings indicate that
overcrowding adversely affects the fulfillment of basic needs for detainees
and inmates, including physical and spiritual care, health services, and
provision of adequate food. Legal implications concerning the handling of
overcrowded conditions in Ternate Detention Center, as mandated by the
Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia through
Regulation No. 11 of 2017, have not effectively addressed the challenges
posed by overcrowded conditions. Limitations in human resources,
insufficient living space, inadequate infrastructure, and budget constraints
in Ternate Detention Center hinder the optimization of meeting the rights of
Persons Deprived of Liberty (WBP).

Introduction: Cyberbullying has emerged as a prevalent issue, were perpetrators harm victims through technology, often anonymously. It is also has been linked with significant negative outcomes in psychological aspects such as social anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, affective disorders, sleeping and eating disorders. Thus, this study aims to examine the association between students' socio-demographics, their experience of cyberbullying and its psychological effects among Public Higher Education Institutions (IPTA) students in the East Coast region.
Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted among 355 IPTA students in East Coast region by using a convenient sampling. The online survey was distributed consist mainly of 3 parts, sociodemographic data, perspective and experiences of being cyberbullied and DASS-21 questionnaires.
Results: 36.6% students have experienced of being cyberbullied, with 19.6% have been cyberbullied almost every day. However, 23.3% reported that the cyberbullying was not harsh at all, 11.4% harsh and 2.0% really harsh. About 24.1% respondents do not have an impact at all, 10.5% have small impact and 2.0% have huge impact on daily life. There was no significant difference between gender and year of study concerning the experience of being cyberbullied among undergraduate IPTA students in the East Coast region (p-value>0.05). However, age showed a significant association with the experience of being cyberbullied (p-value<0.05) with majority of students that had experienced of being cyberbullied was in the range 22-23 years old. There was no significant difference in perspectives on cyberbullying between males and females (p-value>0.05), but age significantly influenced perspectives on cyberbullying (p-value<0.05).
Conclusion: This study suggest that the emotional impact of cyberbullying varies based on individual circumstances and personal perspectives on cyberbullying. Future research should explore the underlying factors contributing to the higher prevalence of cyberbullying among female students and those aged 22-23.
Nurses’ Perception of Risk Factors of Phlebitis Associated with Peripheral Intravenous Catheter: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Daud Azlina , Mohd Zaki Noor Isnani
Published: August 2024

Background: Phlebitis is a main complication of peripheral intravenous catheters. Nurses play an important role in identifying the risk factors of phlebitis in order to reduce the incidence of phlebitis. The purpose of this study is to determine nurses' perceptions of the risk factors for phlebitis.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan and a random sample of hospital nurses was recruited. 269 participants were involved in this study. All participants are required to answer the questionnaire which divided into two sections, section A regarding socio-demographic background and section B about perception on the risk factors of phlebitis that consist of ten multiple choice questions.
Results: The results showed majority of nurses, 75.8% (204), agreed that phlebitis is a significant problem, while 23.0% (62) thought phlebitis is a moderate problem, and only 1.1% (3) of nurses agreed that phlebitis is a minor problem. Nurses recognized some risk factors for phlebitis; however, more than half of the nurses were unaware that cannula material, size of the cannula, and the characteristics of fluid and drug can affect the development of phlebitis.
Conclusion: The study showed that nurses did not fully perceive the risk factors of phlebitis. However, they were knowledgeable about certain risk factors such as the duration for cannula replacement and the insertion site of the cannula. These findings indicate ongoing training for nurses in peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) management and education about the risk factors of phlebitis are necessary.

Cu(x)/NiFe2O4(y) magnetic composites with different component ratios were prepared by chemical reduction of copper cations in the presence of sonicated nickel ferrite. Separately synthesized Cu and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles, as well as composites of copper particles supported on nickel ferrite, were characterized by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Based on the determination of the specific surface area, the NiFe2O4 sample heat-treated at 500 °C was selected as the support for the catalytically active Cu particles. The electrocatalytic activity of Cu(x)/NiFe2O4(y) composites deposited on a cathode was investigated in the electrohydrogenation of acetophenone (APh). It was shown that the electrocatalytic activity of these composites appears starting from the percentage ratio of their components x:y = 40:60. This was expressed as an increase in the rate of electrocatalytic hydrogenation of APh and its conversion compared to the electrochemical reduction of APh under similar conditions. It was suggested that the slightly lower rate of APh hydrogenation on Cu/NiFe2O4 composites compared to Cu particles is due to the poor electrical conductivity of the nickel ferrite support.

The object of the study is the impact of military actions on the current state of the national economy and its subsequent recovery.
The analysis of scientific publications showed that maximum attention is paid to the global scale and strategic infrastructure to solve the problems of the economic situation, and the issues of individual medium and small enterprises are not considered at all. Which, in turn, are also part of the economy and with effective management and implementation of modern methods of not only management, but also financing can also make a significant leap in development. Thereby providing jobs, regular payments to the budget and foreign exchange earnings in the case of exporters.
Up-to-date data describing the current state of the national economy compared to the pre-war period was obtained. The economic model of sharing and modern methods of financing as means for the development of entrepreneurship in wartime are considered. A comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of crowdfunding with traditional business financing methods is made.
Modern tools for attracting funds, even in a very difficult time for the development of our country's economy, have directions for expanding and financing new socially useful projects. In addition, it gives young specialists the opportunity not to waste time at outdated enterprises, but to create new working cities that are in demand by modernity, and to stimulate young people to choose highly qualified professions in the future.

This study investigated 48 cases of cavitary effusions in small animals, including 22 dogs and 26 cats, analyzed at UFRRJ’s Small Animal Veterinary Hospital. Effusion classification, based on biochemical and cytological analyses, revealed a predominance of exudates in both species. Significantly, chronic hemorrhage emerged as the primary cause of fluid accumulation in exudates across both species, with acute or iatrogenic hemorrhage predominating in dogs. In cats, fluid accumulation was more frequently associated with lymphoma, followed by Feline Infectious Peritonitis. The analysis of cavitary effusions proved crucial in elucidating the underlying causes, encompassing infectious, neoplasms, and other alterations.

Research was conducted to analyze the effect of total hardness on the design of optimal drilling mud formulas. Total hardness, which is a measure of the content of dissolved minerals and ions in water, can have a significant impact on the physical and chemical properties of a drilling mud. Factors such as the type of rock formation, water content in the formation, ambient temperature, hydrostatic pressure, and the type of admixture in the mud also influence the design of the mud formula. From the research results, it was found that total hardness can significantly affect the properties of drilling mud. The increase in total hardness tends to affect the rheology of the drilling mud. However, this influence is not linear and can differ depending on the specific conditions and sludge composition. This study provides a better understanding of the relationship between total hardness and drilling mud properties and can be used as a reference in designing optimal mud formulas. Considering the effect of total hardness and other factors, the design of the drilling mud formula can be optimized to meet the requirements of effective and efficient drilling.
