Use of Egg Shell Powder and Periwinkle Shell Ash to Strengthen the Engineering Properties of Clayey Soil
Authors:   Sri Sai College Of Engineering & Technology, Badhani, Punjab, India, Kour Rasmeet
Published: September 2023

Recently, the stabilization of clayey soil (CS) has drawn the attention of numerous researchers. In the past, Egg Shell Powder (ESP) and Periwinkle Shell Ash (PSA) were individually tested for their ability to stabilize clayey soil. The author has attempted to stabilize the clayey soil by combining the two of them. The goal of the current study was to compare the efficacy of various eggshell powder and periwinkle shell ash concentrations as soil stabilizers. Testing procedures include the California Bearing Ratio (CBR), Atterberg limits, Unconfined Compression Test (UCS), and compaction tests on the mixture of clayey soil, eggshell powder and periwinkle shell ash. In this study, ESP and PSA were used as soil stabilizers. PSA was varied (i.e., 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%) after ESP was fixed at 12% utilizing index properties testing. The current study aims to evaluate the increase in the strength and stability qualities in soft subgrade soil by stabilizing it first with ESP and then reinforcing it with PSA. It was found that curing time, eggshell powder, and periwinkle shell ash concentration all significantly affected the engineering qualities of the stabilized soil. The findings demonstrated that increasing eggshell powder content increased unconfined compression strength and California bearing ratio values up to a certain point and then decreased slightly. On the other hand, the strength attributes described increased as periwinkle shell ash concentration increased. Additionally, it was found that the stabilized soil samples' strength properties had been significantly improved by the curing period.

Authors: Pardo J. , Bertoni H. , Magariños E.
Published: September 2023

Background and objectives: This work aims to analyze the incidence of medullary ischemia (MI) and identify the factors contributing to its development during endovascular repair of the descending thoracic aorta in patients requiring complete coverage. Material and methods: A retrospective study. Between April 1999 and December 2014, 176 thoracic aortic endovascular repairs were performed. Sixty-two patients (48 male and 14 female) were treated with thoracic stents from the aortic arch to the celiac trunk due to thoracoabdominal aneurysms (n = 13), aortic dissections (n = 42), intramural hematomas (n = 4), post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms (n = 2) and aortic ulcers (n = 1). All procedures were performed under general anesthesia with strict invasive blood pressure control. Cerebrospinal fluid drainage was performed in 5 patients. Results: The success rate of stent placement was 96.7%, and mortality was 4.84%. The incidence of spinal cord ischemia was 4.84% (3 patients, one in the immediate postoperative period and two during follow-up). Permanent paraplegia was observed in 1.6%. Overall survival (Kaplan-Meier) at 1, 3, and 6 years was 76%, 69.1%, and 64.32%, respectively. Conclusions: thoracic aortic coverage is an effective procedure with a high probability of success. Our study identified a previous procedure on the abdominal aorta and a thromboembolic aortic event as risk factors for developing medullary ischemia in patients requiring complete coverage of the thoracic aorta. In this study, full coverage of the thoracic aorta and left subclavian artery alone are not predictors of paraplegia.

Authors: Pardo J. , Bertoni H. , Magariños M.
Published: September 2023

Antecedentes y objetivos: El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la incidencia de isquemia medular (IM) e identificar los factores que contribuyen a su desarrollo durante la reparación endovascular de la aorta torácica descendente en pacientes que requieren una cobertura completa. Materiales y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo. Entre abril de 1999 y diciembre del 2014 se realizaron 176 reparaciones endovasculares de aorta torácica. Se trataron 62 pacientes (48 de sexo masculino y 14 de sexo femenino) con endoprótesis torácica desde el arco aórtico hasta el tronco celíaco debido a aneurismas toracoabdominales (n = 13), disecciones de aorta (n = 42), hematomas intramurales (n = 4), pseudoaneurismas postraumáticos (n = 2) y úlceras aórticas (n = 1). Todos los procedimientos se realizaron con anestesia general y control estricto invasivo de presión arterial. En 5 pacientes se realizó drenaje de líquido cefalorraquídeo. Resultados: La tasa de éxito de la colocación de la endoprótesis fue del 96,7%, y la mortalidad, del 4,84%. La incidencia de isquemia medular fue del 4,84% (tres pacientes, uno en el posoperatorio inmediato y dos durante el seguimiento). Se observó paraplejia permanente en el 1,6%. La supervivencia global (Kaplan-Meier) al 1 y a los 3 y 6 años fue del 76%, 69,1% y 64,32%, respectivamente. Conclusión: La cobertura de la aorta torácica es un procedimiento eficaz con alta probabilidades de éxito. En nuestro estudio se identificaron como factores de riesgo un procedimiento previo sobre la aorta abdominal y algún evento aórtico tromboembólico para desarrollar isquemia medular en pacientes que requerían cobertura total de la aorta torácica. En este estudio, la cobertura completa de la aorta torácica y de la arteria subclavia izquierda por sí solas no son predictores de paraplejia.

Authors: Onifade A.A , Edem VF , Ige O.M , Arinola O.G
Published: September 2023

Background and Objectives: The need for additional markers for differential diagnosis of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) and drug sensitive M.tb have been raised by previous studies. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-á) produced by monocyte/macrophage, neutrophilic and lymphocytic linkage plays a central role in effective immunity to many disease conditions including M.tb. Since M.tb either preferential inhabits or transits cells producing TNF-á, it istherefore diagnostically useful to measure the levels of TNF-á in the both mononuclear cell lysate and serum of drug sensitive TB (DS-TB) patients and multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) patients compared with healthy controls.Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Chemical Pathology and Immunology, University of Ibadan, Nigeria; Medical Out-Patients' Department and Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis Center, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria. TB patients were selected by Consultant Chest physician after detailed laboratory and clinical procedures. The levels of mononuclear cell lysate- and serum- TNF-á were measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results: Serum and lysate TNF-á levels were significantly elevated in DS-TB patients (p <0.05) and MDR-TB patients (p < 0.05) compared with the control. But serum and lysate TNF-á levels were not significantly different in DS-TB patients compared with MDR-TB patients (p > 0.05).Conclusions: Serum level of TNF-á or lysate TNF-á does not differentiate DS-TB patients from MDRTB patients and the use of antagonist of TNF-á be handled with caution in TB patients.

With so many airlines competing with each other, airlines are competing to become the consumer/market's main choice, but to achieve this, there is no airline strategy that can predict the price of airline tickets according to market needs. To meet the needs of airlines, we need a way to determine the price of airline tickets according to market needs with the help of the influence of technology and information. This research method was carried out using Google Collaboratory as a media to create a data model with the Random Forest, Logistic Regression and Gradient Boosting Regressor algorithms. In this study, the model that produced the highest R2 value and the lowest RMSE was a random forest with an R2 value of 83.91% and an RMSE of $175.9. However, from the three models, Random Forest got a change in accuracy of 1.96% to 85.87. To assist in predicting the determination of flight fares, airline companies can more easily and be alert to determine flight fares that are in accordance with the market. Therefore, Random Forest can be declared better than Logistic Regression and Gradient Boosting models. The Random Forest model that has been created can be used to predict in real-time using Machine Learning.

Climate change has negatively affected agriculture worldwide, including soybean production. Studies have shown that rising temperatures and extreme weather events like droughts and floods significantly reduce soybean yields. Developing flood-tolerant soybean genotypes is crucial for ensuring food security. Conventional breeding programs are limited by laborious and imprecise visual rating methods for flooding tolerance identification. High-throughput platforms for plant phenotyping using imaging techniques offer potential solutions, but they lack information on underlying physiological mechanisms. Non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) is a molecular adaptation in photosynthesis that dissipates excess light energy, protecting plants from damage. This study aimed to integrate NPQ measurements into high-throughput phenotyping procedures to identify flooding-tolerant soybean genotypes. The study evaluated 160 soybean genotypes for flooding tolerance, identifying those with higher grain yield potential. Subsequently, ten genotypes were selected for monitoring NPQ responses under flooded conditions. Results showed that genotypes with higher grain yields also exhibited superior NPQ performance, suggesting a positive correlation between flooding tolerance and energy dissipation capacity. Among these genotypes, 58I60 RSF IPRO, 64HO130 I2X and BRS 525 displayed superior potential and could be further exploited in breeding efforts, considering their grain yield capacity, plant leaf area, and photoprotective capacity under flooding conditions. These findings suggest that integrating NPQ measurements into high-throughput phenotyping platforms can aid in identifying flood-tolerant soybean genotypes for breeding programs, leading to more resilient crops in the face of climate change. Further field studies are warranted to validate these hypotheses and improve crop models for future climate scenarios.

Effect of Low Rate of Dicamba on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) at Different Growth Stages
Authors: Bararpour Taghi , Tseng Te Ming
Published: September 2023

Tomatoes are highly sensitive to herbicides, and concerns have been raised regarding off-target movement of dicamba and 2,4-D with the advent of new technologies in crops like soybean and cotton. Greenhouse studies were conducted over two years to assess the effect of low rates of dicamba on tomatoes at different growth stages and investigate fruit contamination. Treatments included untreated controls and dicamba applied at 1/16X, 1/32X, 1/64X, and 1/128X rates with non-ionic surfactant (NIS). Tomato plants at three growth stages (vegetative, flowering, and fruiting) were evaluated for dicamba sensitivity. Vegetative stage plants showed the highest sensitivity, while no significant differences in injury were observed between flowering and fruiting stages. Only the untreated controls produced fruit at the vegetative stage. Plants at flowering and fruiting stages successfully produced fruits. Harvested tomato fruits from each dicamba rate and the untreated control were planted, and progeny (F1) seedlings were evaluated for dicamba symptomology. No visual dicamba symptoms were observed in the tomato progeny, indicating the absence of dicamba contamination. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis confirmed no detectable levels of dicamba in the fruit samples. These findings indicate that low rates of dicamba, even at simulated drift levels, do not significantly affect tomatoes or result in fruit contamination. The results contribute to understanding the risks associated with herbicide drift and its impact on sensitive crops like tomatoes.

Authors: Williams Lynn , Steinmann Sinje
Published: September 2023

The potential rewards of non-formal education in language learning and teaching should not be underestimated. At the heart of this contribution, then, is an extensive dialogue between a language teacher and a museum guide. Together, they explore how their different disciplines can complement each other, with the overall aim of maximising the (language) learning effect for students, whilst also motivating them to engage in the art exhibition itself. They discuss the benefits museum learning can offer upper-secondary language learners and what challenges teachers and arts educators may face. It becomes clear that language learners can benefit from a collaborative relationship between their school and a museum, especially if the respective educators join forces in this shared mission.
