The circular economy generates major environmental benefits, which result from the use of energy and renewable materials or from reuse and recycling. Being a complex mixture of materials and components, from an economic point of view, the separate collection and recycling of electronic and electric wastes can be cost-effective for products because they contain many hazardous substances, rare or precious metals. This paper presents some aspects regarding the waste with high content of precious or nonferrous metals contained in the electronic/electrical components. Their presence in electronic/electrical waste makes it necessary to recycle and treat them in an ecological way, generating a true industrial symbiosis. In the paper this fact is exemplified by the presentation of a reconditioning-recovery technology that allows the full recovery of all components of some types of electrical contacts widely used in economics. Disposable or defective electrical contact waste was used, as well as technological waste resulting from the manufacture of electrical contact pieces.

Usually, the size optimization by the cam mechanisms is reduced to the cam size only, which is not completely correct because the cam is only one of the two important entities working together. The cam follower optimization is taken into account, but only as distinct part of the cam mechanism. Total size regarded as a minimization criterion is an important problem in cam mechanism synthesis. The paper shows a total size minimization of the cam mechanism, where both parts are equally considered. The mathematical generalization is developed for cam mechanisms with translating roller-follower and flatface follower.

Conventional wastewater treatment processes are preparing the water for discharge thus it still contains small amounts of pollutants. For re-use, advanced wastewater treatment is required and heterogeneous photocatalysis represent a viable path for removing organic pollutants at very low concentrations but still above the discharge limit. The mostly investigated photocatalyst is TiO2 that is a wide band gap semiconductor that can be activated only using UV radiation. However, for large-scale implementation of advanced wastewater treatment, there are required efficient and affordable processes, thus Vis- or solar-activated photocatalysts. Attempts on extending the photocatalytic response towards Vis are under intensive research including the development of composite structures with TiO2 matrix and various fillers that are discussed through this paper. The latest results involving carbon-based fillers are presented along with the extended use of the composites acting also as self-cleaning coatings.

"Until now synergistic effect is considered only the case when the final effect of the simultaneous action of several loads is greater than the sum of the partial effects. But the sum refers only to linear behavior of matters. In the general case of nonlinear matter behavior the paper shows that the synergistic effect may be positive (the total effect is greater the sum of the individual effects), negative (the total effect is less the sum of the individual effects) or zero (the total effect is equal the sum of the individual effects). The synergistic effect depends on the matter behavior. Some general examples and practical examples allowed a generalization of the problem of synergistic effect."

Di kondisi saat ini, kebutuhan pokok bagi banyak orang di dunia adalah internet. Beragam macam informasi dapat diketahui dengan memanfaatkan internet. Awal mula internet hanya difungsikan dalam tukar menukar informasi dan penyuratan, akan tetapi sekarang dengan tersedianya media baru, internet tidak hanya sebagai sarana informasi, namun pula sebagai alat yang edukatif dan hiburan, contohnya Youtube, setiap orang mampu belajar dan mempraktekkan langsung dengan video yang ada dalam Youtube. Dengan tanpa batas, akses Youtube bisa dilakukan oleh siapa pun, khususnya bagi setiap anak usia dini. Anak usia dini bisa diasah kreativitasnya melalui sarana edukatif dalam Youtube. Beberapa ahli psikolog sepakat bahwa apa yang anak lihat akan diserap secara utuh, dan selanjutnya anak akan belajar dari hal tersebut. Keadaan tersebut mampu mendorong kreativitas bagi setiap anak usia dini. Kreativitas tiap-tiap orang bisa diamati melalui sisi bagaimana ia menciptakan hal baru yang terpikirkan sebab ia melihat sebuah objek yang telah ada dan selanjutnya dikreasikan menjadi bentuk baru. Hal tersebut membuat penulis tertarik untuk melakukan identifikasi dan mendeskripsikan kreativitas perkembangan anak usia dini melalui dampak tontonan video Youtube. Penelitian kualitatif deskriptif menjadi jenis penelitian yang dipakai dimana terdapat hasilnya yaitu: 1) Setiap anak cenderung senang melihat sesuatu yang menarik dari gambar berwarna warni dan musik, alhasil otak kanan anak bisa diaktifkan guna berpikir kreatif sebab anak cenderung menerima secara utuh apa yang dilihatnya, 2) konten Youtube yang lebih edukatif hendaknya diberikan kepada anak agar lebih kreatif sebab video Youtube tersebut disajikan secara bebas, contohnya seperti video cara mewarnai, menari, bernyanyi, dan lainnya. 3) Kreativitas anak yang dikembangkan bisa berhasil melalui keterampilan dalam berpikir dan melakukan secara kreatif, dan dorongan intrinsik, maka dari hal tersebut bagi anak di usia dini kondisi yang kondusif dan dukungan dari orang tua menjadi motivasi baginya.

Owls (Strigiformes Wagler, 1830) in Bulgaria: Past and Present (A Review of the Fossil Record and Present Status of Recorded Species)
Authors: Boev Zlatozar
Published: October 2022

Two families, 8 genera, 12 species, and 13 subspecies of recent owls are recorded in Bulgaria. Two species (Bubo scandiacus and Strix nebulosa), established in the Pleistocene localities, disappeared from the country’s recent avifauna. The southernmost limits of the European breeding ranges of three species (Stix uralensis, Aegolius funereus, and Glaucidium passerinum) pass through the territory of Bulgaria. Three species are endangered, 2—vulnerable, 1—threatened, and all the 12 species are protected by law. Earliest record of owls came from Gelasian (2.5 Mya) and Calabrian (1.6 Mya). Bone finds of two Early Pleistocene localities are incompletely identified (as Asio and Athene, respectively). The find of Athene sp. is determined as the oldest European record of that genus. Some anthropogenic factors that cause owl mortality are also presented.

Authors: Baziyar Hakimeh , Marandi Sayed Mohammad , Chitsaz Ahmad
Published: October 2022

Background: Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive and degenerative disorder of the central nervous system with four main symptoms of bradykinesia, tremor, muscular rigidity, and postural instability. Objectives: The effect of 12 weeks of Pilates and aquatic exercise on muscle strength and range of motion (ROM) in male patients with Parkinson's disease was assessed in this article. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 25 male patients reporting to Al-Zahra Hospital, Isfahan, were selected randomly and grouped in Pilates (n = 7), Aquatic exercise (n = 10), and Control (n = 8). The experimental groups received 1-hour sessions of training three times a week for 12 weeks. Muscle strength and ROM of each patient was measured through the Biodex Isokinetic System 3 before entering the study and after the final assigned session. Results: Pilates and Aquatic exercise groups had a significant improvement in ROM, while no significant difference was observed in the control group. Muscle strength and ROM increased significantly in the experimental groups compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The effect of Pilates on muscle strength was not significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Non-pharmacological modalities could be contributive in the patients with Parkinson's disease recovery and lead to significant improvements in their physiological parameters of muscle strength and ROM. Next to the pharmacological treatments, patients could benefit from inexpensive and readily available options like Pilates and aquatic exercises to alleviate the disease symptoms. Further studies should be run to reveal the aforementioned and plausible benefits of these complementary activities.
A Review of Hyperhidrosis Treatment Methods
Authors: Dadarkhah Afsaneh , Asgharpour Masouleh Alireza
Published: October 2022

Context: Hyperhidrosis is known to cause numerous individual and social problems with sweating more than the body’s physiological needs. Researchers have discussed the causes of this disease so far; however, factors such as heredity, nervous system defects, infections, and drugs have been introduced as the causes. Evidence Acquisition: Firstly, 127 articles were identified from different databases. After categorizing and removing duplicate papers and reviewing the abstracts and full texts, we selected 50 articles to review and include in this study. Results: Hyperhidrosis is a burdening disorder leading to physical and social problems. Hyperhidrosis patients are not able to efficiently use specific tools such as metallic and electronic devices. Limitations of this disorder show great concern about the performance of military personnel, too. Therapeutic methods such as topical antiperspirants, anticholinergic drugs, surgery, and Botox injections are the therapeutic measures used to treat this disease; each of these treatments is prescribed at different stages of the disease, and the effect of each is observed. Topical treatment is at the forefront of treatment methods for this disease, followed by oral anticholinergic drugs. Iontophoresis is one of the methods considered in the treatment of hyperhidrosis. Besides surgery, Botox injection is one of the effective methods in treating this disease, especially in the palm. Conclusions: This review presents standard treatment methods used in treating hyperhidrosis with particular attention to iontophoresis as an engineering solution to solve health problems. Based on the severity of sweating and the region of hyperhidrosis incidents, there are different solutions to treat hyperhidrosis. Topical and anticholinergic therapies are the most common treatment options. However, there are other more effective treatment methods, such as iontophoresis and Botox delivery. Iontophoresis is effective and has a long-term effect on preventing sweating with fewer side effects. Suction curettage surgery is an invasive method to treat patients with hyperhidrosis.
EU Common Position on International Law and Cyberspace
Authors: Osula Anna-Maria , Agnes Kasper  , Aleksi Kajander
Published: October 2022

The discussion on international law applicable to cyber operations has shifted from asking whether international law applies to cyberspace to how it applies. Recently the European Union declared in its renewed cybersecurity strategy the ambition to develop common EU position on the application of international law in cyberspace. As part of a broader vision in striving for leadership on standards, norms and regulatory frameworks in cyberspace, the joint communication underlined the need for taking a more proactive stance in the discussions at the United Nations and other relevant international fora. However, less than half of the European Union Member States have issued a public statementon the interpretation of international law in cyberspace and hence, reaching a consensus on the interpretation of relevant concepts of international law appears a challenge. This article provides an overview of the current status of EuropeanUnion Member States’ public statements on international law applicable to cyber operations, identifies the domains of international law where convergence of views can be observed and highlights the areas with notable differences.

Published: October 2022

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of various concentrations of Apyrus and Othello herbicides on the common mallow weed control and their possible negative effect on wheat yield in 2017-18 in Ahwaz, Iran. The treatments were Othello at concentrations of 1.25, 1.5, and 1.75 L/ha and Apyrus at concentrations of 24.26, 26.6, and 30.6 g/ha. Results showed that herbicide treatments significantly reduced the density and dry weight of common mallow weed after spraying (intervals of 15 and 30 days). Best results in reducing the density and dry weight of Mallow weed were recorded in the dose of 30.6, 26.6 g/ha of Apyrus, and 1.75 and 1.5 L/ha of Othello. The effect of treatments was also significant on stem height, spike number per plant and grain number per spike, 1000-grain weight, biological yield and grain yield of wheat. The highest grain yield of wheat was obtained in no-weed control (4359 kg/ha), and in herbicide treatments was 3981 kg/ha that was obtained in 1.75 L/ha of Othello, followed by 26.6 g/ha of Apyrus; while, these yields were not significantly different.
CONTROL FACTORS OF IRON MINERALIZATION IN THE METALLOGENY OF THE LJUBIJA ORE REGION
Authors: Milošević Aleksej , Grubić Aleksandar , Cvijić Ranko , Čelebić Miodrag , Vuković Boško
Published: October 2022

The control factors of mineralization in the Ljubija ore region are stratigraphic, lithological, magmatogenic, structural-tectonic and hypergenic. The distribution of iron ores in the Ljubija ore region is primarily controlled by the spread of the Olistostrome member of the Carboniferous Javorik flysch formation. Only that member, whether uncovered on the surface or overlain by an Upper flysch member, contains primary siderite-ankerite iron ores. In addition, the distribution of ore bodies is significantly affected by the concentration and location of mineralized limestone and limestonedolomite olistoliths. The seating of carbonate olistolitic bodies in the member is irregular, that is, chaotic. The size, shape, and morphology of these bodies and their boundaries are extremely uneven and diverse, in both primary and tectonic occurrences. Not all olistolitic bodies are mineralized. Those that are can be completely, partially or minimally mineralized. Due to all this, ore bodies and deposits “have no continuity and appear in isolation”. Therefore, there is a high exploration risk. These major irregularities are not characteristic of redeposited powdered limonite ores in Plio-Quaternary lacustrine sediments. Cimmerian lateral ruptures were important for the distribution of hydrothermal solutions and today's distribution of ore deposits and occurrences within ore fields and ore nodes. The hypergenic control factor significantly influenced the forming of iron oxide ores. In the Alpine tectogenesis, old systems of faults and joints were renewed and new created. In this respect, the most significant were transverse, open, steep SW-NE ruptures.

Authors: Sotnikova Olga , Zhidko Elena , Prokshits Ekaterina , Zolotukhina Iana
Published: October 2022

Topical issues of formation of sustainable urban environment were analyzed. In this work, the modern urban environment was considered in the form of an open dynamic system, where its state is determined by other specific laws based on the mutual influence of the components of the system taking into account external influences. The safe city environment acts as natural social and technical structure. This concept assumes unity and interaction/interference of three main bases (natural aspect of x, social aspect of y and technological aspect of z) subject to external influences. The analysis of data of monitoring gives a qualitative and quantitative picture of current state of the urban environment. The approach to city management based on gis-systems is also considered, which make it possible to collect, process, analyze and display spatially coordinated data and allow the most efficient interpretation of information and knowledge about territories for further assessment of the state of the habitat.

Published: October 2022

Advances in communication technologies have made communication between people more accessible. In the era of information technology, information exchange has become very simple and fast. However, personal and confidential information may be available on the Internet. For example, voice phishing is actively used by intruders. The harm from phishing is a serious problem all over the world, and its frequency is growing. Communication systems are vulnerable and can be easily hacked by attackers using social engineering attacks. These attacks are aimed at tricking people or businesses into performing actions that benefit attackers, or providing them with confidential data. This article explores the usefulness of applying various approaches to training to solve the problem of fraud detection in telecommunications. A person's voice contains various parameters that convey information such as emotions, gender, attitude, health and personality. Speaker recognition technologies have wide areas of application, in particular countering telephone fraud. Emotion recognition is becoming an increasingly relevant technology as well with the development of voice assistant systems. One of the goals of the study is to determine the user model that best identifies fraud cases. Machine learning provides effective technologies for fraud detection and is successfully used to detect such actions as phishing, cyberbullying, and telecommunications fraud.

First eumonostiliferous nemertean from the Nishi-Shichito Ridge, Genrokunemertes obesa gen. et sp. nov. (Eumonostilifera, Nemertea)
Authors: Hookabe Natsumi , Koeda Keita , Fujiwara Yoshihiro , Tsuchida Shinji , Ueshima Rei
Published: October 2022

Nemerteans are mostly marine, benthic invertebrates, inhabiting intertidal to hadal zones. Recently, they have been recognized from deep sea with environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of sediment samples whereas any records from the locations and/or the water depth have not been documented in nemertean taxonomic publications to date. It suggests that there are major gaps between deep-sea nemertean fauna observed with eDNA and taxonomic knowledge. During a research expedition in 2021, we obtained a single specimen of eumonostiliferous nemertean from the southern part of Genroku Seamount Chain, the Nishi-Shichito Ridge, where any nemertean species have never been reported. Subsequent morphological and molecular examination reveal that the species is placed in a new genus and herein described as Genrokunemertes obesa gen. et sp. nov. It resembles shallow-water-dwelling Kurilonemertes and Typhloerstedia, but differs from the former in lacking eyes and the latter in possessing well-developed cephalic glands and lacking accessory nerves of lateral nerve cords. In terms of genetic distances based on partial sequences of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene, G. obesa gen. et sp. nov. is closest to Monostilifera sp. Owase collected from Japan, which is characterized by large four eyes; the COI distance is higher than commonly observed interspecific divergences in eumonostiliferans.
SERBP1 affects the apoptotic level by regulating the expression and alternative splicing of cellular and metabolic process genes in HeLa cells
Authors: Zhou Junjie , Chen Wenhao , He Qianwen , Chen Dong , Li Chunguang , Jiang Congqing , Ding Zhao , Qian Qun
Published: October 2022

Background

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have important roles in orchestrating posttranscriptional regulation and modulating many tumorigenesis events. SERBP1 has been recognized as an important regulator in multiple cancers, while it remains unclear whether SERBP1-regulated gene expression at the transcriptome-wide level is significantly correlated with tumorigenesis.

Methods

We overexpressed SERBP1 in HeLa cells and explored whether SERBP1 overexpression (SERBP1-OE) affects the proliferation and apoptosis of HeLa cells. We analyzed the transcriptome-wide gene expression changes and alternative splicing changes mediated by SERBP1-OE using the transcriptome sequencing method (RNA-seq). RT-qPCR was conducted to assay SERBP1-regulated alternative splicing.

Results

SERBP1-OE induced the apoptosis of HeLa cells. The downregulated genes were strongly enriched in the cell proliferation and apoptosis pathways according to the GO analysis, including FOS, FOSB, PAK6 and RAB26. The genes undergoing at least one SERBP1-regulated alternative splicing event were enriched in transcriptional regulation, suggesting a mechanism of the regulation of gene expression, and in pyruvate and fatty acid metabolic processes critical for tumorigenesis events. The SERBP1-regulated alternative splicing of ME3, LPIN3, CROT, PDP1, SLC27A1 and ALKBH7 was validated by RT-qPCR analysis.

Conclusions

We for the first time demonstrated the cellular function and molecular targets of SERBP1 in HeLa cells at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. The SERBP1-regulated gene expression and alternative splicing networks revealed by this study provide important information for exploring the functional roles and regulatory mechanisms of SERBP1 in cancer development and progression.

MicroRNAs represent major regulatory components of the disease epigenome and they constitute powerful biomarkers for the accurate diagnosis and prognosis of various diseases, including cancers. The advent of high-throughput technologies facilitated the generation of a vast amount of miRNA-cancer association data. Computational approaches have been utilized widely to effectively analyze and interpret these data towards the identification of miRNA signatures for diverse types of cancers. Herein, a novel computational workflow was applied to discover core sets of miRNA interactions for the major groups of neoplastic diseases by employing network-based methods. To this end, miRNA-cancer association data from four comprehensive publicly available resources were utilized for constructing miRNA-centered networks for each major group of neoplasms. The corresponding miRNA-miRNA interactions were inferred based on shared functionally related target genes. The topological attributes of the generated networks were investigated in order to detect clusters of highly interconnected miRNAs that form core modules in each network. Those modules that exhibited the highest degree of mutual exclusivity were selected from each graph. In this way, neoplasm-specific miRNA modules were identified that could represent potential signatures for the corresponding diseases.

La profesionalización de los estudios de la escritura, a través de aportes de enfoques didácticos, cognitivos y sociocognitivos, sociolingüísticos, discursivos, retóricos o críticos ha permitido ampliar las formas de comprender la escritura más allá de la transcripción. Este avance ha implicado problematizar la definición del objeto de estudio, y atender a los procesos, las actividades humanas, las prácticas sociales y aspectos emocionales e identitarios. Tales aproximaciones plantean desafíos teóricos y metodológicos. El desarrollo de diseños robustos informados por epistemologías complejas sobre lo escrito es hoy un tema central para el estudio de la comunicación y la cultura escrita en el mundo. En este número temático, “Más allá de los textos: investigaciones situadas de la escritura”, nos propusimos congregar investigaciones que buscaran entender el contexto como parte integral del fenómeno escrito, y que desarrollaran epistemologías y metodologías centradas en los escritores. El resultado de la convocatoria fueron siete trabajos, provenientes de cuatro países, que abordan las literacidades desde la infancia temprana hasta la educación de adultos. Con un horizonte teórico común y diseños metodológicos renovados, estos artículos identifican fuerzas que estructuran las prácticas escritas y tienden a poner en entredicho los regímenes institucionales y evaluativos en los que tiene lugar la escritura. Sus aportes enriquecen los avances que los estudios de la disciplina han tenido en las últimas dos décadas y nos permiten proyectar futuras direcciones de desarrollo, específicamente en el plano de la aplicación de estos resultados de investigación al aprendizaje dentro y fuera del aula.

La interculturalidad en los libros de texto asociados a la temática de la ocupación militar de La Araucanía no avanzará si solo presta atención a cuestiones sociales o políticas. El medio ambiente también debe ser integrado. El presente estudio realiza un análisis ambiental a los libros de texto de enseñanza media asociados a dicho contenido de la historia de Chile. Se ocupó una estrategia de investigación mixta y un diseño de investigación múltiple. La muestra estuvo compuesta por seis libros de texto de la asignatura de Historia y Geografía usados en educación secundaria desde el año 2008 al 2021. Los datos fueron sometidos a un análisis de contenido cuantitativo y a un análisis documental. Los resultados muestran que existe una limitada representación de la biodiversidad y de los ecosistemas, y que no existen actividades didácticas que fomenten en los estudiantes una actitud y comportamiento más sustentables con el medio. Más importante aún, el medio ambiente es tratado desde una óptica antropocéntrica, lo cual no considera la relación medioambiental biocéntrica que suele caracterizar a los pueblos aborígenes y, en este caso, a los mapuche. Por tanto, una vinculación más efectiva de los contenidos con los principios de la educación ambiental y de la historia ambiental podría corregir estos sesgos. Así, se fomentarían metodologías más tolerantes a la diversidad humana, se elevaría el rol del medio ambiente en la historia humana, y se alinearían los contenidos de libros de texto con la sustentabilidad que necesita el mundo de hoy.

Las metodologías participativas apuestan por un aprendizaje activo mediante actividades colectivas, discusión de ideas y experiencias entre docentes y estudiantes. El propósito de este estudio fue conocer las nociones sobre metodologías participativas de profesores a nivel conceptual, procedimental y actitudinal. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal y comparativo a 81 profesores de enseñanza básica y media de la Región del Biobío, en Chile, a quienes se aplicó el cuestionario KPSI sobre estrategias didácticas del aprendizaje. Para el análisis estadístico se utilizó la prueba ANOVA de medidas repetidas y la prueba t student para determinar si existían diferencias significativas entre los tres niveles del cuestionario (conceptual, procedimental y actitudinal) y, entre estos en función de los años de experiencia y ciclo escolar en los que ejercían los docentes participantes. El análisis inferencial determinó que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las medias del nivel conceptual y nivel procedimental y entre las medias del nivel procedimental y actitudinal. La diferencia implicó que el nivel procedimental fue significativamente mayor que los niveles conceptual y actitudinal. Los resultados plantean una falta de implementación de metodologías participativas en el aula producto del modelo tradicional de enseñanza[1]aprendizaje, la resistencia al cambio pedagógico y la formación inicial docente, factores que dificultan la implementación de metodologías participativas en las salas de clase.

Introduction: Neonatal sepsis is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity. Inspite of using appropriate antibiotics, those who are bacterial culture-negative, still succumb to fungal infection. Fungal sepsis is common in the neonatal Intensive Care Unit (ICU), especially with invasive procedures and prolonged empirical use of antibiotics. The incidence of fungal infection varies widely across centers, likely due to differences in practice related to modifiable risk factors such as exposure to empiric antibiotics and length of parenteral nutrition. Neonates are at high risk for acquiring infections due to their specific Central Nervous System (CNS) structure as well as functionally immature immune system causing central nervous system infection or intracranial haemorrhage due to sepsis induced coagulopathy. Being Intracranial Haemorrhage (ICH) in neonates often results in devastating neurodevelopment outcome and also having significant mortality in the neonatal period. Aim: To find the association and outcome of intracranial haemorrhage in newborn with fungal sepsis. Materials and Methods: This study was a prospective cohort study conducted at Department of Pediatrics, Government Kilpauk Medical College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, on neonates admitted in newborn ward of the hospital ICU during the period January 2018 to December 2020. Neonates with the diagnosis of fungal sepsis were identified from blood cultures. They were also subjected to Complete Blood Count (CBC), Capillary Refilling Time (CRT), Prothrombin Time (PT), activated Partial Thromboblastin clotting time (aPTT) and cranial ultrasound. Chi-square analysis for descriptive data and Cox Proportional Hazard Regression for survival and non survival neonates and Kaplan-Meier curve analysis was done. Results: Out of total 80 neonates, nine had intracerebral haemorrhage, 21 neonates had intraventricular haemorrhage and no haemorrahge in 50 neonates. More the gestational age, lesser were the chances of intracranial haemorrhage and the difference was statistically significant (p-value<0.001). A total of 50 babies died, majority (42%) were in the gestational age between 37-40 weeks. All the babies diagnosed with C. albicans sepsis succumbed to infection. Conclusion: The present study highlights the fact that the lesser of the gestational age, the more or the chances of intracranial haemorrhage. A close monitoring of the coagulation profile PT and aPTT will help us to identify the babies for more prone for intracranial haemorrhage. Expert cranial ultrasound will pick up the haemorrhage early. Timely treatment measures instituted will help in preventing mortality due to bleeding manifestions in fungal sepsis. The Cox regression analysis reveals that both PT& aPTT and intracranial haemorrhage are the associated risk factors for non survival in fungal sepsis neonates.
