Authors: Bhat Musaddiq Rafiq , Salroo Imran Nazir , Ahmad Mir Reyaz
Published: May 2022

Background: Coarctation of aorta (CoA) occurs when a small section of the aorta narrows in the luminal. CoA is one of the most popular congenital CL (cardiac lesions), and it is responsible for five to ten percent of all instances of congenital HD (heart disease). CoA can result in a variety of complications. Aims & Objectives: This research was undertaken to determine the occurrence of related CL and valvular disorders in patients with CoA. Materials and Methods: This research was carried out in the Department of Radiodiagnosis and Imaging (DORAI), Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS) Tertiary Care Hospital, Srinagar, JK, India over a period of 2 years on patients referred from the Department of Cardiology. The patients who had been detected with CoA were given a PC-MRI to check their blood flow, and the comparison was made to the Echocardiographic study results. Results: Spin-echo (S-E) images of the level of the aortic arch (AA) as well as aortic isthmus (AI) showed narrowing in nineteen situations, according to the researchers. In eleven of the twenty situations, there was a significant amount of collateral circulation (CC). CC was significant in six out of eleven situations of serious stenosis.

Authors: Roy Paromita , Bose Saptarishi
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Due to the pandemic COVID-19 the medical education has shifted to the virtual mode in almost all the countries. Online learning is being practiced for quite some time and it has proved to be useful but its effectiveness should be anticipated for countries like India. Methods: An online survey was conducted among undergraduate medical and allied health students with the help of a structured self-administered questionnaire consisting of demographic information, modalities of online classes they are attending and their impression regarding the online classes. Results: Maximum students had access to devices and internet but some of the students responded that they have no internet facility at home. More than half of the students have responded that they are facing some sort of visual problem after online classes have commenced. Many students responded that the internet connectivity issue is a hindrance to online learning. Greater number of the students strongly disagree that online class should be continued even after the pandemic is over. Conclusion: There are lots of obstacles in virtual learning in resource-limited countries like ours. The efficiency of e-learning should be assessed among the students and the flaws of virtual learning are to be dealt by concerned authorities.

Published: May 2022

In the modern era where dentistry is more considerate in preserving the natural tooth in the oral cavity, Vertical Root Fractures (VRFs) are diagnosed as the third most common reason for extraction of tooth. VRFs are more common in endodontic ally treated tooth. As the symptoms of VRFs are not precise, the clinical diagnosis of VRFs at the early stage becomes questionable. Persistent presence of VRFs leads to the damage of the surrounding supporting structures making rehabilitation of extracted tooth site more challenging. In recent times emerging trends in treatment modalities of VRFs has been introduced. This review article highlights the recent trends in aetiology, diagnosis, pathogenesis and treatment of VRF teeth.

Az első világháború a magyar protestáns sajtó tükrében
Authors: Klestenitz Tibor
Published: May 2022

A tanulmány azt vizsgálja, hogyan reagált a magyar protestáns sajtó az első világháború okozta társadalmi változások sorozatára. Az első reakció 1914-ben a túláradó hazafias lelkesedés és a háború általános igazolása volt, amely azonban később jelentős változásokon ment keresztül. A protestáns sajtó akkoriban a lelkipásztorok és az egyházhoz szorosan kötődő értelmiségiek szűk csoportjának belső fóruma volt, ahol a viszonylag korlátozott nyilvánosság miatt kritikai és önkritikus vélemények is megjelenhettek. A kezdeti lelkesedés elmúltával – különösen 1916-tól – a szerzők egyre inkább kétségeiket fejezték ki a közös hadsereg vezetésével, a protestáns katonák lelkigondozásával, a társadalmi szolidaritás erejével kapcsolatban, és figyelmeztették a gyülekezetekben szolgáló kollégáikat az intenzív lelkigondozás, a közösségszervezés és a jó személyes példamutatás fontossága.

A magyar református felsőoktatás története 1531-gyel kezdődik, mely évhez köthető a sárospataki és a pápai iskolák átvétele korábbi fenntartóiktól, Debrecennel kiegészülve (1538)  lettek a forrása mindannak, ami oktatásügyben református berkekben megvalósult. Az indulást követően alig 30 év telt el, és máris megtörtént az első, drámai tűzeset. Ebben a tanulmányban református kollégiumainkat sújtó tűzesetek történetét és azok szerteágazó hatását történeti és teológiai szempontból vizsgálom meg. Debrecen (1564, 1802), Kolozsvár (1655, 1798) Nagyenyed (1704) és Pápa (1788) követik egymást a kollégiumtüzek sorában, míg eljutunk a Ráday Kollégium drámai leégéséhez: Budapest (2019). A tűz martalékává vált épületek a felbecsülhetetlen pusztítás és a felfoghatatlan áldozatok után az áldozatkészség és összefogás példájaként újjáépülve, fizikálisan és lelkileg is megújulva váltak a református oktatás és a magyar művelődés szellemi világítótornyaivá.

How Indigenous wisdom can sustain humanity
Authors: Turnbull Shann , Poelina Anne
Published: May 2022

Ancient self-governing practices of Indigenous Australians reveal how modern society can achieve sustainable wellbeing for the environment and humanity. No other existing culture has a longer record. In her Nobel Prize speech, Elinor Ostrom described how pre-modern societies evolved polycentric self-governance to avoid over-exploitation of common life-sustaining resources between competing interests to deny them for everyone. Ostrom identified design principles for self-governing ‘Common Pool Resources’ without the intervention of markets or state. This article outlines how these principles could be enhanced to also: (1) recognise Indigenous wisdom, relationships and practices; (2) apply the design principles to incorporated organisations to create a new model of corporate governance to benefit all stakeholders; (3) introduce system science insights that allow creatures to become self-regulating, self-managing and self-governing; (4) identify a politically compelling tax incentive for shareholders to adopt stakeholder self-governance with the cost of the incentive recovered from stakeholders paying taxes and reducing costs for welfare and regulation. A basis is created on which to introduce a universal wellbeing income from corporate dividends. The principles outlined here allow for corporations to become agents for reducing environmental and existential risks for humanity.
Macroeconomics – developments and modern trends
Authors: Olesen Finn
Published: May 2022

Ever since the publication of Keynes’ The General Theory in 1936, both the theoretical and methodological content of macroeconomics, and the role of economic policy, have seen continued change. In contemporary times, macroeconomics is dominated by the New Neoclassical Synthesis (NNS) and the dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models. However, since the Great Recession, the modern mainstream has been increasingly exposed to criticism from various alternatives of a more heterodox nature. The aims of this article are threefold. First, to give a selected presentation on the development of modern macroeconomics. Second, to address why and how the NNS has become the dominant (and, for most mainstreamers, the only) way of analysing macroeconomic phenomena. Third, to present two alternatives to the mainstream that might challenge the future dominance of this thinking.

Toward the Specific Criminal Procedures for Disabled Persons in Indonesia
Authors: Amin Muhammad
Published: May 2022

This paper aims to analyze the need for the specific criminal procedure for disabled persons in Indonesian criminal justice system. This study employed doctrinal legal research using statute and conceptual approaches. The findings of this research reveal that the criminal justice system is based on the normalcy concept, which holds that everyone is physically and cognitively normal. As a result, the investigation, prosecution, and examination processes in court proceedings are exclusively aimed at and created for regular people. Persons with disabilities have been pushed to the margins and perhaps ignored. Persons with disabilities' rights are frequently infringed, both as perpetrators and as witnesses/victims of criminal activities. The medical method should be abandoned in favor of a social approach for the criminal justice system to be pro-people. What's needed is for law enforcement to do their jobs at each stage of the criminal justice system so that people with disabilities can have a fair trial. In the early phases of the criminal justice process, a profile assessment is required to determine the character, challenges, and requirements of people with disabilities.

Hospital waste management will reduce the risk of disease for patients and paramedics. In addition, the comfort of the hospital service room (IGD) is an important element that does not only affect the image of the hospital. For this reason, it is necessary to optimize waste management in hospital services, especially in the auction room, such as the emergency room. The aim is to place the trash in the interior of the hospital emergency department to increase comfort, effectiveness, and work efficiency. The method used in conducting systematic review uses a scrum based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) protocol which includes identification, screening, eligibility and included. From the 5 articles analyzed, it was found that health services in the ER are a very important element in dealing with patients who are in an emergency, it is necessary to maintain the ER environmental conditions so that they are not polluted by medical waste because psychologically it can affect patients, and display a good image for the hospital. the. A sense of comfort (comfort) in the waiting room can be achieved through the placement of trash cans in the interior according to their use. Factors that need to be considered such as garbage storage, color, labels, and lighting have a psychological influence to support the creation of a sense of comfort for patients and paramedics in order to increase work efficiency and effectiveness.

The number of maternal deaths in Indonesia in 2020 showed 4,627 deaths in Indonesia. This number has increased by 9.6% compared to the previous year, which was 4,221 deaths. Based on the causes, the majority of maternal deaths were caused by bleeding as many as 1,330 cases, hypertension in pregnancy as many as 1,110 cases, and disorders of the circulatory system as many as 230 cases (Ministry of Health, 2021). % of mothers giving birth. When approaching the time of delivery in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy, pregnant women experience anxiety about the stigma that giving birth will be painful and injure the perineum (Sri Mulati, 2016). Prevention of perineal rupture can be done by perineal massage. This discussion aims to collect and analyze articles to identify the effectiveness of perineal massage management as an effort to prevent rupture. The results of this discussion show that perineal massage has significant results in reducing the occurrence of perineal rupture. Perineal massage is also beneficial in reducing the rate of episiotomy as well as providing other benefits to the mother and the newborn. However, these studies have drawbacks, namely, this perineal massage does not yet have global clinical guidelines on the standard of implementing perineal massage, in some studies the sample experienced dropout in research and differences in research results that affect perineal massage on the prevention of perineal rupture. further research is needed regarding the standard of perineal massage and the support of husbands and midwives in the education and implementation of perineal massage

Published: May 2022

Systemic anaphylactic reactions are a rare condition with a prevalence of around 1.6-5.1%. Based on the latest epidemiological data the ratio of fatal anaphylactic reactions is approximately 1%. To diagnose anaphylaxis, sampson criteria are used. Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially fatal, systemic allergic reaction that occurs suddenly after contact with an allergycausing substance. Anaphylaxis, it was acknowledged that no criteria will provide 100% sensitivity and specificity, but it was believed that the criteria proposed are likely to capture more than 95% of cases of anaphylaxis. Anaphylaxis itself occurs in 15 of 10,000 patients and is characterized by acute reactions, with diffuse erythema, pruritus, urticaria, angioedema, bronchospasm, laryngeal edema, hyperperistalsis, hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, hemolytic anemia. Most symptoms develop quickly (five to 30) minutes after exposure. A 44-year-old with an anaphylactic reaction has been reported. The administration of epinephrine 0.3-0.5 cc deltoid IM and general management of anaphylaxis in the initial acute condition of anaphylactic reaction is given to the patient.

Published: May 2022

Disasters have been a common occurrence since the beginning of time, yet they are increasing phenomenally worldwide and especially in developing countries. Factors that led to the cause of destructive disasters are often complex and interrelated; researchers detect human influence and rapid development is intensifying the damage and scale of disaster-prone areas through urban sprawl and human interference. Observing the disaster life cycle, it is made up of four stages: preparedness stage, resilience and mitigation stage, response and relief stage, and finally reconstruction and recovery stage. The main focus usually lies in the response and relief stage which comes immediately after the disaster has struck. The aim of this research is to extend the architectural intervention across all stages of the disaster; using a dynamic disaster response system made up of three components, primarily a disaster educational centre that can reliably respond to any disaster occurrence using a network of prebuilt structures spread across the perimeters of disaster-prone areas. The structures help with strategic preparedness, promote resilience, mitigating damage and spread, provide recovery and relief, and aid in eventual reforestations and reconstructions. As well as, designed to host an adaptable module of prefabricated units that can be easily mobilized and transported to plug-in to the host structures; the hosting structures will also provide a mechanical response across all stages of the disaster life cycle with a minimum disruptive footprint. Utilizing primarily the inductive method, this research will analyse the effectiveness of this unconventional architectural design approach in how it functions both reactively and strategically across all stages of any disaster life cycle. The paper also relies on analytical and deductive methods to help portray the effectiveness of the unconventional architectural design approach in how it functions both reactively and strategically across all stages of any disaster life cycle.

Waste to Energy (W to E) minimize the amount of waste sent to landfill, which also reduces negative impacts on the environment. This problem has been a common occurrence since the beginning of time. Waste to Energy will assist in the creation of a low-carbon society. Currently, the challenge behind reaching Eco-friendly space is a result of the continuity of incineration and landfill uncontrolled Municipal Solid waste on slopes and seashore. This environmental disaster as worldwide landfill is oversaturated and can collapse at any moment and cause dangerous damage to the environment. The average trash production increased phenomenally worldwide, resulting in numerous environmental and health concerns. The landfill's greatest height point reached 30 meters, which is much above the minimum-engineered height. Renewable Energy refers to a variety of treatment technologies that convert waste into sustainable development like electricity, heat, fuel or other usable material, as well as a variety of waste. Renewable Energy is divided into four categories: thermal, mechanical, thermochemical and biochemical. Therefore, this research aims to establish guidelines to Reuse the Landfills and create Eco-Friendly Spaces, explore the potential of landfills in reused as new recreational Eco-friendly spaces and to establish Renewable energy. To achieve this aim, the paper will follow a scientific methodology, starting with a literature review highlighting the definition of Waste to Energy, understanding its causes and types, then focus on different methods applying for this disaster and its relation to the city. As focused case study, this paper summarizes the methodology for applying Renewable Energy and transforming the mountain of garbage into entertainment and amusement park. As a conclusion, this research will analyze the effectiveness of Waste to Energy and how it functions strategically in order to improve the quality of life.
