Published: October 2021

A literature-based review was made to assess the applications of GIS in veterinary epidemiology and its relevance in the prevention and control of animal diseases. GIS is “a powerful set of tools for collecting, retrieving, transforming, and displaying spatial data from the real world”. Overall, a GIS is a platform consisting of hardware, software, data, and people and encompasses a fundamental and universally applicable set of value-added tools for capturing, transforming, managing, analyzing, and presenting information that is geographically referenced. These data can be combined with population data and previous disease records for the prediction of diseases. Applications of GIS are very wide in all human activities. It is used for marketing studies, telecommunications, and the location of restaurants, museums, and hospitals; in tracking truck traffic; in establishing maps of animal population density by species or maps of changes in vegetation; in locating forests, rivers, and mountains and in determining soil compositions. The application of GIS to the veterinary field has been developed over the last decade. Specialized software is becoming more affordable and user friendly. GIS can be applied in veterinary epidemiology for investigation of complex disease problems, GIS is used for early warning systems, for recording and reporting disease information and for planning animal disease prevention and control program. One of the most useful functions of GIS in epidemiology is its utility in basic mapping. It is believed that GIS will play an important role in the control and eradication of epidemic Transboundary Animal Diseases (TADs). Thus training of veterinary staff on GIS, its tools, and applications are highly recommended.

Published: October 2021

Giardia is a protozoan parasite which causes a severe disease called Giardiasis. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of Giardia cysts in raw wastewater and its prevalence in the study community. Furthermore, the prevalence of assemblages A and B in sewage was compared with their prevalence in stool samples tested positive for Giardia. All wastewater samples were found positive for Giardia at a concentration range of 10-12225 cysts/L. Positive stool samples contained Giardia at an average concentration of 1.4x105cysts/gr. Giardia assemblage A alone was detected in 38.2% of wastewater samples, whereas assemblage B was not detected separately. However, 61.8% of the samples were found to contain both assemblages. In stool samples, the majority 27 out of 50 (54%) were found to contain assemblage B, 34.6% contained assemblage A and only 11.5% contained a mix of both assemblages. The results of the study indicate that Giardia is highly prevalent in wastewater in Israel reflecting its prevalence in the community. In addition, assemblage A is highly prevalent in wastewater, whereas assemblage B is more prevalent in stool samples, suggesting milder and/or carrier state of infection for assemblage A.

Published: October 2021

Trachurus trachurus, is a migratory, semi-pelagic species of the Carangidae family living in schools often associated with mackerel. This species is very common in the Mediterranean, and it is found on all Moroccan coasts. This study aims to determine the length-weight relationship and the condition factor (K) of Trachurus trachurus. Thus, 390 specimens were collected between August 2017 and August 2018 in the central-east region of the Moroccan Mediterranean. The parameters of the length-weight relationship were determined and analyzed by length and sex. It appears that this species has better growth in length than in weight, therefore having a negative or lower allometry. It varies according to sex, length, and season. This result shows that Trachurus trachurus in this study is not overweight in its habitat.

Background: Surgical site infections are the infections of the tissues, organs or spaces exposed bysurgeons during the performance of an invasive procedure manifested in the postoperative periodwithin 30 days after a surgical procedure and up to one year if an implant was placed in the patient.SSI is still higher in India as compared to western data leading to increased morbidity and mortality.This study aimed to analyse the factors associated with SSI and its microflora in a tertiary carecentre. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was done for one year in a tertiary care centrein Bareilly, U.P. All the patients who underwent surgeries related to git pathology in the surgerydepartment, either emergency or elective with surgical site infections, were included in this study.Patients less than 18, all cases operated else were, or re-operated were excluded from this study. Alltraumatic abdominal surgeries were also excluded from this study. Results: The present studyrevealed SSI was associated with 82 (9.4%) cases among elective and 80 (21%) in emergencysurgeries. Superficial incision SSI was found to be most common (90 cases), followed by deepincisional SSI (60 patients) and organ/space SSI (12 cases). Minor intestine surgeries were mostcommonly associated with SSI. The microbiological organism most widely isolated was E. Coli(41.2%), followed by Staphylococcus aureus (27.5%), Klebsiella (16.5%), group A beta-haemolyticStreptococci (9.1%) and Pseudomonas (5.5%). Conclusions: Surgical site infection still causesconsiderable morbidity and high cost to the health care system and is becoming increasingly crucialin medico-legal aspects. Prevention of SSI requires a targeted approach to improve health careworkers' knowledge, practising the guidelines strictly regarding asepsis and optimising the patientbefore surgery. Reduction in rate of SSI will improve cosmesis and make the results of operationsbetter as a whole.

Ways to Improve the Regulation of Projects of the “Megascience” Class
Authors: Lozovskij D. L. , Karandaev I. Yu.
Published: October 2021

The creation of unique scientific facilities of the “Megascience” class is a very complex and lengthy organizational and technical process, for the implementation of which the resources of several states are usually involved. In connection with the participation in the creation and implementation of a scientific project of the “Megascience” class of several states, it becomes necessary to distribute the rights, duties, costs and powers of project management among the participants. Currently, the Russian Federation lacks a sufficient level of legal regulation of projects of the “Megascience” class. Based on the analysis of Russian and foreign experience in the implementation of scientific projects of the “Megascience” class, the article presents proposals for improving the legal regulation of these projects being implemented on the territory of the Russian Federation. The article also discusses the specific problems that one has to face when implementing projects of the “Megascience” class in Russia, and the ways to solve them. In addition, the authors’ definitions of such key terms as “Megascience” class project, “unique scientific facility of the “Megascience class” and “scientific collaboration,” which are absent in the current legislation, are proposed. This research was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (grant 18-29-15036mk “Models for legal regulation of unique scientific facilities of ‘Megascience’ class at the national and international levels in the context of technological development of the Russian Federation”).
“Architecture” of Civil Registration: Text and Digital Format
Authors: Trofimets I. A.
Published: October 2021

The author has attempted to show that in the context of building information society the format of its management changes, and law is being transformed accordingly as the main social regulator. Traditional state institutions are being modernized including the sector of registry office. The civil status record as the “primary cell” of the Unified State Register has been transformed from a simple text into an electronic one. The organizational and legal basis for the change in the format of the civil status act was a whole block of normative legal acts of various legal force. At the same time, the adoption of methodological and technical standards is required, without which it is impossible to form the maintenance of act records in a new digital format. We consider the need for the modernization of the entire system of state registration of civil status acts to update the legal terminology used in the field of legal regulation of relations in the field of civil registration. Many terms from everyday life become legal categories in information law, and need official and doctrinal interpretation (“digital landscape,” “digital hygiene”, etc.). It is for this reason that the conceptual legal apparatus is objectively subject to renewal. In this article, the author substantiates the advisability of applying the term architecture to a civil registration in digital format.
Scientific Facilities as a Subject Matter of “Infrastructure Law”: Une Approche Québéсoise
Authors: Chetverikov A. O.
Published: October 2021

The article deals with the original approach of Canadian French-speaking province (federal entity) to legal regulation of scientific facilities as a type of infrastructural objects governed by “infrastructure law.” The author firstly proves that the expression “scientific facility” and “Megascience” represent no more than the specific types of social infrastructure and, thus, generally denoted in legal instruments as “research infrastructure” which may be qualified as “large” (Megascience), “medium”, “small” etc. Further the article explores the modern legislation of Quebec which, unlike other countries, has decided to create a full-fledged “infrastructure law” governing, amongst other types of infrastructure, the research infrastructure. The article points out and analyses the particularities and principle findings of Quebec infrastructure laws and by-laws: the “supraministerial” governance of all infrastructure projects, the general public infrastructure company (Quebec Society of Infrastructures) etc. The latest developments in the Quebec “infrastructure law” relating to information infrastructures are also taken into account.

La brecha de acceso a la infraestructura aeroportuaria en América Latina y el Caribe
Authors: Brichetti Juan Pablo , Giraldez Zúñiga Francisca , Sánchez González Santiago , Serebrisky Tomás
Published: October 2021

En la presente nota técnica se realiza una estimación de la brecha de activos para garantizar el acceso a infraestructura aeroportuaria en América Latina y el Caribe. Utilizando información geo-referenciada de las poblaciones a nivel municipal y de la localización de los aeropuertos de la región, las estimaciones indican que la región debería invertir 17.000 millones de dólares para atender las necesidades de infraestructura aeroportuaria de los 40 millones de habitantes en la región que viven en centros poblados de más de 100.000 habitantes y que no cuentan con un aeropuerto con estándares de servicio mínimos para el transporte aérea seguro a menos de una hora de su domicilio. Las estimaciones del monto de inversión son sensibles a cambios en el tiempo de viaje a los aeropuertos y al umbral poblacional mínimo del centro urbano al que se le debe dar acceso a infraestructura aeroportuaria. La brecha identificada equivale aproximadamente al 30% del total de inversión en transporte en América Latina en 2019.

Authors: Navas E. , Jimenez R. , Caldera G , Ortiz J. , Agudelo O. , Hernandez M. , Lopez J. , Mora G.
Published: October 2021

El Campo Casabe está formado por una estructura anticlinal asimétrica con buzamiento moderado hacia el este, afectado por fallas transpresionales que involucran secuencias sedimentarias del Cretáceo y Paleógeno. Como consecuencia, se produjeron fallas normales e inversas que definen 8 bloques operativos en el campo. Se resaltan como características relevantes la alta heterogeneidad de yacimientos no consolidados producidos en conjunto, la limitada continuidad areal de los yacimientos y las desfavorables relaciones de movilidad. Estas condiciones motivaron al equipo técnico del campo a realizar análisis integrados y multidisciplinarios que comprenden estudios de geología, yacimientos e ingeniería de subsuelo, validados con la experiencia operativa obtenida en el campo, con el fin de explotar más eficientemente los hidrocarburos de cada una de las 23 capas productoras. Este análisis integrado incorpora cambios en los volúmenes de inyección de agua por arena en función de los volúmenes remanentes de petróleo, calculados a partir de las eficiencias volumétrica y de desplazamiento y de los estudios de conectividad hidráulica. A partir de estos volúmenes, se definieron pronósticos de producción incremental usando curvas de flujo fraccional. También se determinaron perfiles de inyección por pozo que generen una condición de balance en el sistema. Todo esto, con el fin de incrementar el factor de recobro en el campo, mejorar la utilización del agua de inyección y disminuir el índice de falla relacionado a desbalances en el sistema producción–inyección. Los resultados a la fecha indican que en las zonas de estudio se ha obtenido una reducción del 25% en el índice de falla, un incremento de la producción del 21%, una reversión de la tendencia de la declinación del campo del 15% al 7% y una reducción del 30% de los costos asociados a consumo de energía y química para tratamiento de agua.

Authors: Садыралиев Ж.
Published: October 2021

На первый взгляд кажется, что с методологической точки зрения вопрос оценки социально-экономического развития органов местного самоуправления (муниципальных структур) не представит много трудностей, проблем. Однако некоторые недостатки в регулировании законодательства в области сочетания управления в органах местного самоуправления в Кыргызстане, особенно в айыл окмоту и городах районного значения, с государственным управлением, требуют особого внимания к организации статистической работы в этих муниципальных структурах, обуславливают рассматривать эти структуры как объекта для специального обзора. В данной работе предпринята попытка проанализировать некоторые проблемы информационного обеспечения социально-экономического развития данных айыл окмоту и городов районного значения. Автор попытался охарактеризовать процесс сбора (кем) и использование (через кого) муниципальной статистической информации при ведении мониторинга процессов, происходящих в этих муниципальных структурах (МС), при оценке их экономического роста по отраслям, социально-демографического состава населения, уровня их жизни, при определении уровня комплексного обеспечения услугами социальной инфраструктуры. Особенно были отмечены способы коекретного определения и оценки вклада муниципальных образований в социально-экономическое развитие Кыргызской Республики.

Pollutants from sewage wastewater are major concerns due to their environmental effects. Thus, an effective sewage wastewater treatment plant is important to ensure discharged effluent is well treated before it can be released to rivers or water streams. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the Activated Sludge Hi-Kleen Treatment Plant (ASHTP) located at H Block (ASHTP at H Block) and L Block (ASHTP at L Block) in UiTM Sarawak Branch, Samarahan Campus, Sarawak, Malaysia. The evaluation was based on physicochemical and removal efficiency namely pH, temperature, turbidity, chemical oxygen demand (COD), and total suspended solids (TSS) from raw influent and treated effluent. The findings indicated that the overall performance of both ASHTP at H Block and L Block were satisfactory where treated effluent meets the standard discharge limits of Environmental Quality (Sewage) Regulations 2009 (Standard B). For ASHTP at H Block, the removal efficiencies of turbidity, COD, and TSS were found to be 86.00, 13.76, and 88.02% respectively, in which the pH, temperature, turbidity, COD, and TSS of the treated effluent were 7.30, 28.10°C, 10.40 NTU, 14.10 mg/L and 8.90 mg/L respectively. Meanwhile, for ASHTP at L Block, the removal efficiencies of turbidity, COD, and TSS were found to be 43.20, 41.90, and 51.61% respectively, in which the pH, temperature, turbidity, COD, and TSS in the treated effluent were 7.30, 27.90°C, 21.10 NTU, 58.10 mg/L and 18.00 mg/L respectively. Proper maintenance of sewage treatment plant is important to ensure its effectiveness as well as to prolong its lifespan.

Published: October 2021

Introduction: Study of cancer incidence trends can provide better insight for decision-making and considering necessary interventions. The current study was focused on investigating the main patterns in the incidence of gynecological cancers among the provinces of Iran during the last decades.
Methods: We carried out an applied longitudinal study through the growth mixture model (GMM), with a concentration on the trajectory of incidence rates. Information about the rate of gynecological cancer incidence (per 100,000) in 31 provinces of Iran during the 1990-2016 period was extracted from the Data Visualization System. Taking into account the p-value of the likelihood ratio test (LRT), the number of main patterns was estimated by Mplus 7.4 software.
Results: Tehran province with the incidence of 2.00 per 100,000 was in the first rank in 1990, while in 2016 the highest rate was observed in Yazd province with 9.38 cases. Five main patterns were determined based on LRT. Tehran and Yazd provinces showed the sharpest rise, while Khuzestan, Fars, Esfahan, Semnan, East Azerbaijan, Razavi Khorasan, and Mazandaran provinces belonged to the pattern with a moderate-to-highrising trend. 10 provinces including Kerman, Kurdistan, Gilan, Lorestan, Alborz, Hamedan, Kermanshah, Markazi, Ardabil, and West Azerbaijan were on the other hand categorized in the moderate-rising trend. Sistan and Baluchestan and Hormozgan provinces had a slow-rising pattern, and finally, the remaining 10 provinces had the pattern with a slow-to-moderate upward trajectory.
Conclusion: Due to the considerable rising trend in most provinces in Iran, taking urgent and effective preventive actions seems necessary

Published: October 2021

Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a disease in which damaged kidneys could not remove waste material from the blood which could result in other health problems. The aim of this analysis was to identify significant laboratory prognostic factors on death hazard due to CKD.
Methods: There were 109 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) treated at Helal pharmaceutical and clinical complex. The survival time was set as the time interval from starting dialysis until death due to CKD. Age, gender and factors such as creatinine, cholesterol, uric acid, SGOT, SGPT, bilirubin, hemoglobin, potassium, ALP, HbA1C, ferritin, calcium, phosphorus, PTH and albumin were employed in this study. Weibull Distribution with non-Constant Shape Parameter versus constant Shape Parameter for the analysis were used.
Results: Death due to CKD occurred in 29 (26.6%) of the patients. Sixty-seven (61.5%) had uric acid higher than 6.8 (mg/dl) and 39(35%) had phosphorus higher than 4.7 (mg/dl) which were poor prognoses. The incidence of death was 48.4%. Calcium<8.5 (mg/dl) (p=0.002), Calcium > 9.5 (mg/dl) (p=0.003), Albumin 4-6.3 (g/dl) (p=0.034), Phosphorus (p=0.022), hemoglobin<10 (g/dl) (p=0.043), hemoglobin>12.5 (g/dl) (p=0.006) and iPTH (p<0.001) were significant variables which had an effect on death hazard rates.
Conclusion: The Weibull model with Non-Constant shape parameter was suggested to be more accurate for identifying risk factors, leading to more precise results, compared to constant shape parameter. Investigators mostly emphasize on the importance of Calcium, Albumin, Phosphorus, hemoglobin and iPTH for reducing hazard rates in CKD patients.

Published: October 2021

Introduction: Reliability is an integral part of measuring the reproducibility of research information. Intra-cluster correlation coefficient (ICC) is one of the necessary indicators for reliability reporting, which can be misleading in terms of its diversity. The main purpose of this study was to introduce the types of reliability and appropriate ICC indices. 
Methods: In this tutorial article, useful information about the types of reliability and indicators needed to report the results, as well as the types of ICC and its applications were explained for dummies.
Results: Three general types of reliability include inter-rater reliability, test-retest reliability, and intra-rater reliability was presented. 10 different types of ICC were also introduced and explained.
Conclusion: The research results may be misleading if any of the reliability types and calculation criteria types are chosen incorrectly. Therefore, to make the results of the study more accurate and valuable. Medical researchers must seek help from relevant guidelines such as this study before conducting reliability analysis.

Authors: Abdelrehem Faramawy Manar Ahmed Elbadawy , Abd El Kader Aziza Ibrahim
Published: October 2021

Background & Aim: Anxiety related to the COVID-19 is prevalent amongst the nursing workforce potentially affecting nurses’ well-being and their organizational commitment. The nurse manager’s caring behavior has been recognized as a crucial indicator of nurses' resilience with the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to investigate the effect of COVID-19 anxiety on front-line nurses’ organizational commitment and their perception of nurse managers' caring behavior.
Methods & Materials: This study utilized an explanatory research design; hence, a convenient sample consisted of 60 registered nurses working at three selected medical intensive care units located in one of the Cairo University Teaching hospitals, Egypt was selected. Data were collected using the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale, Nursing Staff Organizational Commitment Questionnaire, and Nurse Managers' Caring Behavior Questionnaire. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20 was used for the data analysis where the descriptive statistics, Simple Linear, and Stepwise multiple regression analysis were applied.
Results: The highest-rated anxiety problem of COVID-19 was appetite loss (x ̅=3.03, SD = ±0.88). Human respect as one of the perceived nurse managers caring behaviors emerged as a strong predictor (Partial R2 = 0.104, p= .017) in increasing the front-line nurses’ organizational commitment, while COVID-19 anxiety has a significant decreasing effect (Partial R2 = 0.435, p<0.001) on it.
Conclusion: COVID-19 anxiety has affected the front-line nurses’ organizational commitment and their perceived nurse managers' caring behavior. COVID-19 anxiety should be addressed and rectified by providing appropriate managerial caring behavior and support to boost nurses ‘organizational commitment.

Published: October 2021

Background & Aim: Self-care in patients with heart failure can improve multiple outcomes and reduce mortality. Measuring self-care requires valid and reliable tools. This study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the 9-items European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Scale.
Methods & Materials: The present study is a psychometric evaluation. The original version of the tool was translated from English to Persian using the standard Backward-Forward method. The questionnaire's validity was assessed using face, content, criterion (the Self-Care of Heart Failure Index v.6 as a criterion), and construct validity.  An exploratory factor analysis approach was used to construct validity with a sample of 216 patients with chronic heart failure referred to Dr. Shariati and Imam Khomeini Hospital's heart clinics in Tehran; and Ayatollah Mousavi Hospital in Zanjan. The reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated by internal consistency and stability methods.
Results: After the validation process (validity and reliability), all 9 items of the questionnaire were approved and remained. The content validity index of the total content of the questionnaire was calculated to be 0.96. Based on factor analysis, only one factor was confirmed for the questionnaire. The correlation between the present questionnaire and the Self-Care of Heart Failure Index v.6 was positive and significant (p<0.001, r=0.753). Internal consistency (α=0.728) and stability (0.897) of the questionnaire were also confirmed.
Conclusion: The European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Scale is valid and reliable for measuring Iranian patients' self-care behaviors with heart failure.
