Drug Utilization Pattern by Using WHO Core Prescribing Indicators in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology Departments of a Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Karki Naresh , Joshi Ruban Raj , Shrestha Buddhi Kumar , Prasad Pravin
Published: June 2019

Introduction: Drug utilization research is an important tool to facilitate rational use of drugs. In low income countries irrational use of drugs is a common problem like overuse of drugs and inappropriate use of antibiotics, leading to poor treatment outcome and increased burden of treatment. This study was conducted to provide understanding of drug utilization pattern by using WHO Core Prescribing Indicator. Methods: This study was conducted in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology departments. Patients visiting these Out Patient Departments with at least one drug on prescription form were included in the study. Further, information related to WHO Core Prescribing Indicators were collected in pre-designed proforma. Results: Average number of drugs prescribed per prescription was 2.6. Means of number of drugs prescribed in Orthopedics and Obstetrics / Gynecology departments were 2.9 and 2.3 respectively (p < 0.001). Drugs prescribed in generic name and from essential drug list was 41.4% and 34.3% respectively. Prescription forms with generic name in Orthopedics department were significantly more compared to Obstetrics / Gynecology department (p = 0.00002). However, there was an increased tendency to prescribe drugs from essential drug list in Obstetrics / Gynecology department compared to Orthopedics department (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Drugs were prescribed by generic name and from essential drug list, but this was not sufficient to meet the ideal values of WHO Core Prescribing Indicator. Therefore, prioritization on prescribing drugs by generic name and from essential drug list by respective departments to achieve the standards of WHO needs to be encouraged.
Disaggregated Capital Expenditures
Authors: Beyer Brooke D. , Herrmann Donald R. , Rapley Eric T.
Published: June 2019

SYNOPSIS

Financial analysts and accounting regulators encourage companies to disclose the disaggregation of total capital expenditures (CAPX) into the portion for sustaining current performance (maintenance CAPX [MCAPX]) and the portion for pursuing additional opportunities (growth CAPX [GCAPX]). Using a hand-collected sample of voluntary disclosures, we document that traditional estimates of disaggregated CAPX components, using currently required financial statement disclosures, are inadequate proxies for actual (disclosed) values of MCAPX and GCAPX. Specifically, we find that estimation errors for disaggregated variables are associated with future financial performance (i.e., changes in sales and earnings), suggesting that disaggregated disclosure information is potentially useful in forecasting. We also find that these estimation errors are associated with analyst forecast revisions of sales and earnings per share, consistent with analysts incorporating disaggregated CAPX information into their forecasts. Our results provide evidence that disaggregated CAPX disclosures are superior to currently required aggregate CAPX disclosure for forecasting firms' financial performance.

Published: June 2019

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to determine optimal blood pressure (BP) thresholds for minimizing coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in people with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

The Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications (EDC) Study participants without known CAD at baseline (n = 605) were included and followed for 25 years. The associations of time-weighted BP measures (systolic BP [SBP], diastolic BP [DBP], and mean arterial pressure) with incident CAD were examined by using Cox models. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were summarized by different cut points of time-weighted BPs. Risk stratification analyses were then performed on the basis of BP (<120/80 vs. ≥120/80 mmHg) and HbA1c (<8% vs. ≥8%).

RESULTS

Baseline mean age was 27 years. Half of the cohort were women and 98% were white. A dose-gradient association was observed for categorized time-weighted BPs and CAD. According to AUC, the optimal cut point for SBP was 120 mmHg and for DBP was 80 mmHg. BP ≥120/80 mmHg was associated with a 1.9 times (95% CI 1.4, 2.6) greater risk of developing CAD than that for BP <120/80 mmHg. Participants with good control of both BP and HbA1c had BP <120/80 mmHg and HbA1c <8%. Those with only high BP (hazard ratio [HR] 2.0 [95% CI 1.1, 3.9]) carried a similar risk of developing CAD as those with only high HbA1c (HR 1.6 [95% CI 0.97, 2.8]).

CONCLUSIONS

The optimal BP threshold associated with minimal CAD risk is 120/80 mmHg in young adults with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes.

FAMILY SUPPORT ENTITIES IN THE MIGRATION SITUATION OF ITS MEMBERS
Authors: Bejma Urszula , Majkowski Władysław , Młyński Józef , Kome Abraham
Published: June 2019

Nowadays, we are dealing with a large wave of emigration from Poland. Two factors contributed to this: the high unemployment rate in Poland at the turn of the last centuries and the ease of movement of individuals and groups after Poland's accession to the European Union. The overlap of these two factors meant that many Poles, not infrequently fathers or mothers of families, made decisions about finding a job outside the borders of their homeland. Although economic emigration contributes to improving the conditions of the family's existence, which is undoubtedly its positive effect, it nevertheless has many negative consequences: social, environmental, psychological... If emigration disturbs the system of family functioning, there is a need for broadly understood support of the emigrants' families in order to minimize its negative effects. It is primarily about support that maintains social relations that take a specific form in the family and without which the family becomes dysfunctional. The most important entities that provide such support are: the closest family, state institutions, religious organizations.

Anonyymien keskustelupalstojen julkisuus: Marginaaliin jääneiden vertaistukea ja yhteiskuntakritiikkiä
Authors: Vainikka Eliisa , Harju Auli
Published: June 2019

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan anonyymien verkkokeskustelujen luonnetta julkisuuteen liittyvien teoreettisten näkökulmien kautta. Pohdinnan tukena käytetään empiiristä aineistoa kahdelta verkkokeskustelufoorumilta: Suomi24-keskustelufoorumin käyttäjille tehtyä kyselyä ja Ylilauta-kuvalaudan keskusteluja. Tarkastelluille foorumeille yhteistä on varsin suuri anonyymi käyttäjäkunta sekä suhteellisen vapaa, jopa tylykin keskustelukulttuuri. Molemmilta foorumeilta on löydettävissä yhteiskunnallisesta keskustelusta marginalisoitunutta käyttäjäjoukkoa. Artikkelissa pyritään sekä empiirisesti että teoreettisesti tuomaan esiin näiden keskustelufoorumien tarjoamaa vertaistukea ja yhteiskuntakritiikkiä. Vertaisuudelle pohjaavan keskustelun, vertaistuen eri ulottuvuuksien ja keskusteluissa koetun samanmielisyyden kautta foorumeilla avautuu mahdollisuus yhteiskunnallisesti merkittävien asioiden puimiseen myös niille, jotka eivät valtajulkisuudessa tunne saavansa ääntään kuuluviin. Toisaalta samanmielisten yhteisön löytäminen voi myös rakentaa epäluuloa, polarisoitumista ja yhteiskunnallista vastakkainasettelua. Tätä yhteiskunnallisiin ilmiöihin kytkeytyvää yksityisten asioiden julkista, mutta anonyyminä tapahtuvaa käsittelyä tarkastelemme intiimin kansalaisuuden ja vastajulkisuuden käsitteiden avulla. Intiimi kansalaisuus ja vastajulkisuus tulevat aineistossamme näkyviksi tunnetoiston, vertaisuuden ilmausten ja vastapuheen kautta.

Evaluation is a process that includes measurement and may also contain decision making about values. Tests are ways that are used or procedures taken in the framework of measurement and assessment in the field of education, which provides assignments and a series of tasks given by the teacher so that values can be symbolized by students' behavior or achievements. The learning outcomes of each student are compared with the level of achievement of competencies in instructional objectives. There are three things that are important in terms of the test, first is the term measurement. Giving tests (testing is part of measurement activities) Both tests are a tool to measure a sample of knowledge or abilities possessed by a person Third, tests are interpretations of numbers obtained to determine whether a person is good enough or not to learn in achieving a goal. learning or teaching needs to be evaluated in order to know the level of exhaustion of the planned goals so that in the teaching process produces students who have high cognitive, affective and psychomotor aspects and also have an impact on the progress of the nation.

Examining the debt implications of the Belt and Road Initiative from a policy perspective
Authors: Hurley1 John , Morris2 Scott , Portelance3 Gailyn
Published: June 2019

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) hopes to deliver trillions of dollars in infrastructure financing to Asia, Europe, and Africa. If the initiative follows Chinese practices to date for infrastructure financing, which often entail lending to sovereign borrowers, then BRI raises the risk of debt distress in some borrower countries. This paper assesses the likelihood of debt problems in the 68 countries identified as potential BRI borrowers. We conclude that eight countries are at particular risk of debt distress based on an identified pipeline of project lending associated with BRI.Because this indebtedness also suggests a higher concentration in debt owed to official and quasi-official Chinese creditors, we examine Chinese policies and practices related to sustainable financing and the management of debt problems in borrower countries. Based on this evidence, we offer recommendations to improve Chinese policy in these areas. The recommendations are offered to Chinese policymakers directly, as well as to BRI’s bilateral and multilateral partners, including the IMF and World Bank.

Truth Matters: Living in Dangerous Times - Aquinas on the Virtue of Truth-Telling
Authors: Ryan Fainché
Published: June 2019

Current political and social climate seems to have as a presupposition the view that truth-telling has a merely instrumental value. This paper will explore Thomas Aquinas’ writing on truth and truth-telling, arguing that truth-telling is an intrinsic good, a human virtue and a component of human flourishing. In Aquinas’ view the virtue of truth-telling is a satellite virtue within the cardinal virtue of justice, and as such imperative for the flourishing of human society.
In Defense of Aristotle: Thomas Aquinas on the Identity of the Living Body and the Corpse of Christ
Authors: Vijgen Jörgen
Published: June 2019

The so-called. ‘Christianization’ of Aristotle in the Middle Ages and in particular by Thomas Aquinas remains a vexed debate. A case by case study seems to be a fruitful approach. One of these cases concerns Aristotle’s definition of the soul in De anima II, 1(412b10-25). Applying this philosophical claim to the theological question Utrum Christus fuerit homo in triduo mortis seems to be not without difficulty, as St. Thomas’ frequent treatments of this question show. In this paper I analyze these texts and show how Aquinas on multiple occasions follows De anima II, 1 and similar texts of Aristotle and defends a robust Aristotelian position, even in light of the significance of his recovery of Greek Church Fathers.

Published: June 2019

Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbils are well known for their toxicity and medicinal applications. In this study, the attraction and mortality of the Phaseolus vulgaris weevil (Bruchus chinensis) caused by Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbil oil was examined in a Completely Randomized Design experiment using a Y-tube olfactometer on a laboratory bench. Statistical analysis at P < 0.05 showed 10 µL had an attraction of 42.67%. In the case of mortality, the results showed that Phaseolus vulgaris seeds treated with 40 µL of the bulbil oil had a harmonic mean of 55.8% mortality of the weevil population, which was higher than with 10 µL of Actellic 50 EC. GC-MS analysis identified 17 compounds in the bulbil oil, the main constituents of which were 2- pentanone, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl- (17.8%), phenol, 4-ethyl- (11.41%), hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester (11.05%), phenol (7.35%), 9-octadecenoic acid, (E)- (7.2%) and phenol, 4-ethyl-2-methoxy- (7.14%). Attraction by bulbil oil may have been due to the presence of phenolic compounds, and mortality may have been due to hexadecanoic acid, methyl ester and 9-octadecenoic acid, (E)-. Attractants are used for the surveillance and detection of an infestation in stored products. The added advantage of the bulbil oil to cause mortality makes Dioscorea sansibarensis bulbil oil useful in the formulation of a botanical pesticide in stored pest management.
Slurry shield tunneling in soft ground. Comparison between field data and 3D numerical simulation
Authors: Beghoul Mohammed , Demagh Rafik
Published: June 2019

In urban areas, the control of ground surface settlement is an important issue during shield tunnel-boring machine (TBM) tunneling. These ground movements are affected by many machine control parameters. In this article, a finite difference (FD) model is developed using Itasca FLAC-3D to numerically simulate the whole process of shield TBM tunneling. The model simulates important components of the mechanized excavation process including slurry pressure on the excavation face, shield conicity, installation of segmental lining, grout injection in the annular void, and grout consolidation. The analysis results from the proposed method are compared and discussed in terms of ground movements (both vertical and horizontal) with field measurements data. The results reveal that the proposed 3D simulation is sufficient and can reasonably reproduce all the operations achieved by the TBM. In fact, the results show that the TBM parameters can be controlled to have acceptable levels of surface settlement. In particular, it seems that moderate face pressure can reduce ground movement significantly and, most importantly, can prevent the occurrence of face-expected instability when the shield crosses very weak soil layers. The shield conicity has also an important effect on ground surface settlement, which can be partly compensated by the grout pressure during tail grouting. Finally, the injection pressure at the rear of the shield significantly reduces the vertical displacements at the crown of the tunnel and, therefore, reduces the settlement at the ground surface.

Schools in Sweden need to handle an acute lack of teachers. One way to handle this problem is to hire new staff who can work with social and administration tasks, enabling the teachers in school to teach some more classes instead. This study examined two secondary schools in Sweden where this way to solve the problem was tried out. The aim of the study was to highlight possible consequences for teachers’ core practices (teaching), and discuss whether more teaching might involve another sort of teaching. In this analysis, Ryle´s distinction of “achievements” versus “tasks” was being used (Ryle, 1949). Another aim was to highlight possible consequences for teacher-student relationships and possible consequences for the teachers´ working conditions. The empirical base was five focus group interviews with the teachers. The findings indicate that the new work model might turn into a “mechanical teaching”, more of an achievement than a task, in Ryle´s sense. Moreover, while new staff was hired to solve social problems among students, teachers still describe how they handle acute conflicts in the school environment; “because I´m an adult”. Finally, even though the working conditions are still demanding, the clarifying of job boundaries has contributed to less work stress.

Published: June 2019

Este artigo objetiva empreender uma análise discursiva de dizeres de professores do ensino superior sobre o cuidado (de si), à luz de Foucault, autores pós-foucaultianos e Hadot. Seu intuito é apontar como os efeitos de sentido de cuidado (de si) estão atrelados aos modos de subjetivação/objetivação, às técnicas neoliberais de governamentalidade e rastrear possíveis presenças dos modos de subjetivação, o cuidado de si nas falas. Constatou-se o quão enredados estão os entrevistados nas/pelas técnicas neoliberais de governamentalidade e a importância de manter acesa a esperança na possibilidade de fazer de nossas vidas um ensaio de nós mesmos, em constante transformação, apostando na relação consigo como uma alternativa, uma forma de resistência diante do poder (pós)moderno.

A ALIENAÇÃO PARENTAL DECORRENTE DO ROMPIMENTO DO VÍNCULO CONJUGAL
Authors: José Daud Fuad
Published: June 2019

O presente trabalho tem o escopo de explorar o tema da alienação parental a partir do rompimento do vínculo conjugal. Busca-se desenvolver esta matéria com base na legislação, doutrina e jurisprudência, levando em conta as consequências da ruptura do ví­nculo afetivo de modo pouco amistoso que por ocasião da guarda, seja ela unilateral ou compartilhada, atinge o menor sob o poder familiar durante sua permanência com um dos genitores. Daí­ a prática do alienador que provoca no menor rejeição contra o alienado como um gesto vingativo, promovendo ao filho os efeitos da síndrome da alienação parental. A discussão do caso concreto exige quase sempre a participação do Judiciário na decisão desse embate, especialmente na busca de inibir a prática abusiva e, ao mesmo tempo, proporcionar a possibilidade de uma reestruturação familiar tendo em conta o melhor interesse do menor. Conclui-se que, apesar das dificuldades de se apurar a síndrome da alienação parental, torna-se importante o aprofundamento do estudo da matéria pelos juristas e juí­zes, além de outros  profissionais como psicólogos, pedagogos e assistentes sociais.
Shear Behavior of Concrete Beams Strengthened with CFRP Grid and PCM Shotcrete
Authors: Amiruddin Andi Arwin
Published: June 2019

The results of an experimental and analytical study of the shear behavior of damaged or under-strength concrete beams strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) grid and polymer cement mortar (PCM) shotcrete describes in this paper. The aim of this study is to evaluate shear performances of reinforced concrete beams retrofitted by using PCM shotcrete and CFRP grid. Four concrete beams reinforced internally with steel and externally with both PCM and CFRP grid (longitudinal direction used CR-10 and transversal direction used CR-6) applied to the specimens were tested under three-point bending. The shear failure is initiated by a major diagonal crack within the beam shear span. This diagonal crack extended horizontally at the level of the CFRP grid. Results show that PCM shotcrete with CFRP grid is very effective for shear strengthening. Increases in strength of 140% for PGB over the RCB as control, un-retrofitted beams were noted.
Multi-Objective Optimization of Variable-Stiffness Composites Fabricated by Tailored Fiber Placement Machine
Authors: Honda Shinya
Published: June 2019

A multi-objective optimization method for the laminated composite fabricated by a tailored fiber placement machine that is an application of embroidering machine is presented. The mechanical properties of composite with curvilinear fibers including stiffness, volume fraction, and density are variable depending on curvatures of fibers. The present study first measures the relation between curvatures and mechanical properties. The measured results indicate that the stiffness of composite decreases linearly as the curvature increases. Then, the obtained relation is applied to the multi-objective optimization where the maximum principal strain and magnitude of curvature are employed as objective functions.

This paper deals with effects of using different sets of material constants on the natural frequencies of laminated composite rectangular plates. The plate is symmetrically laminated by thin layers composed of recently developed carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) materials. Numerical experiments are conducted by using a semi-analytical solution based on the thin plate theory and the lamination theory. The displacements are assumed to accommodate any combination of classical boundary conditions. The material property is expressed by a set of four elastic constants, and some typical sets of values are cited from the recent literature. Furthermore, a new standard set of discretized constants is proposed to uncover the underlying characteristics of the existing constants. The convergence study is carried out first, and the lowest five natural frequencies are calculated for five sets of classical boundary conditions including totally free through totally clamped cases. Next, a new definition of frequency parameters is introduced to promote more physically meaningful comparison among the obtained results, and the effect of using slightly different constants is clarified for unified comparison and insights. It is also discussed to derive approximate frequency formulas by linear regression analysis and to test accuracy of the formulas.

Investigation of a ship towing system performance in waves incorporated with an asymmetrical towline configuration is necessarily to be studied to ensure a towing safety of navigation. To achieve the objective, this paper presents the ship towing motion performance in waves using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) approach. Here, the heave and pitch motions of the towed ship so-called barge has been analysed, where several effects of the towing angle and towing speeds have been taken into account. In the calm water condition, the results revealed that the increase of tow angle was proportional with the sufficient reduction of the sway amplitude motion and inversely proportional to her yaw motion. The increase of the asymmetrical tow angle, however, has led to increase her sway motion amplitude in wave condition and conversely reduced the tow speed increased. In addition to the pitch motion characteristic, it subsequently increased by 12.1% as the tow angle raised from 25° to 35°; meanwhile the pitch motion of barge has by 10.2% as the tow speed increased from 0.655 m/s to 0.728 m/s. This CFD simulation is very useful as the preliminary prediction on the heave and pitch motion characteristics ensure a safety navigation of a towed ship in waves.

Abstract: Microchannel in microtechnology is a channel with a hydraulic diameter below 1 mm. Microchannels are primarily used in biomedical devices and microfluidic applications. Fabrication of microchannels has always been a complex task even at the world centres of excellence. This article addresses the fabrication techniques for creating microchannels using a 40W CO2 Galvo laser marking machine. It was able to control the channel dimensions by changing the power, scanning speed, and scanning time of the laser source. The results show that the created channel width increased as the laser power increased and the scanning speed decreased. Similarly, the channel depth increased as the laser power increased. Successfully tested in the laminar flow and droplet modes, the created microchannels were sealed using the thermo-mechanical method at 220oC. This is a new method for faster and cheaper production of microdevices that could be explored for sustainable development in the industry. The article concludes that with an appropriate solution, microchannels with minimal width and depth dimensions of 50 µm × 50 µm can be developed with channel roughness of 2-3µm.

Keywords: Microfluidics, microchannels, CO2 marking machine, Galvo, mechanical sealing method.

The reservoir on Field A that has an estimated large reserve of natural gas of 10,73 TSCF would have a potential economic value when developed correctly. The natural gas reserve is planned to be extracted by utilizing 18 subsea production wells connected to five subsea manifolds at a depth of 300 ‒ 1000 m at below sea level. Gas production will be done by using FPSO. Produced gas then will be pumped to onshore processing facilities on Yamdena island through undersea pipeline that used corrosion resistant alloy as long as up to 100 km in length. The natural gas processing would either be done by building an LNG facility scenario or building a GTL facility scenario on Yamdena island. The LNG scenario would produce the natural gas into LNG and gas condensate. While the GTL scenario would produce the natural gas as a synthetic liquid fuel such as LPG, naphtha, kerosene, and diesel. The feed gas volume used on both scenarios is assumed to be 1.041 MMSCFD. The economic indicator calculated for GTL yields an NPV of 1.743,44 MMUS$ and for LNG yields 1.940,51 MMUS$. The IRR calculated for GTL yields 13,27% and for LNG yields 13,14%. The POT period calculated from cummulative cash inflow for GTL scenario will take 9,84 years time, while on LNG scenario POT will take 9,90 years time. The PI value calculated for GTL scenario yields a value of 1,46 and for LNG scenario yields a value of 1,44. Results from sensitivity analyses on economic indicator found that the parameters which has significant effect on the change of economic indicator values are product sell price.
