Factors affecting the thermal conductivity of dielectric nanofluids for use as alternative fluids in power transformers
Authors: Boukounacha Ahmed Yassine , Zegnini Boubakeur , Yousfi Belkacem , Seghier Tahar
Published: September 2024

The high heat transfer capabilities of dielectric fluids used in power transformers are considered one of the most important properties responsible for increasing the efficiency of these devices, as these oils transfer the heat generated from the internal parts of the transformer to the external environment. The application of nanotechnology in liquid insulators will increase the heat transfer rates through the thoughtful incorporation of nanoparticles (NPs) in these insulating media. Nanofluids (NFs) have higher thermal conductivity compared to conventional insulating oils found in power transformers, which nominates them as promising alternatives in the field of high voltage. This paper focuses on the thermal conductivity capabilities of dielectric nanofluids as well as the analysis of different factors affecting thermal conductivity. It also presents some theoretical models to determine the thermal conductivity of NFs with the possibility of applying these dielectric nanofluids to improve the heat transfer performance of power transformer.

A New Perspective in Diagnosis of Neuroendocrine Tumors and Pseudo Pheochromocytomas, Understanding the Biology Behind a Mislabeled Medical Terminology
Authors:   Sahel Oncology LLC, Orange Coast Medical Center of Hope, Cancer Research and Life Foundation, MD M Nezami
Published: September 2024

Recently the incidence of undiagnosed hypertension that does not fit into either category of essential hypertension or secondary hypertension is becoming largely increased. Most of these cases are attributed to anxiety or forms of panic attacks associated with high blood pressure. Some in fact are lethal yet clinicians have been challenged to know the real cause of the disease. The term pseudopheochromocytoma widely used for patients who have typical presentation of pheochromocytoma but yet no concrete evidence of disease manifested in their imaging or lab reports to suggest increased production of adrenaline or neurepinephrine, as seen in typical pheochromocytomas. These patients suffer from life threatening attacks of hypertension, yet the only medical revenue offered are anxiolytics, or tricyclic antidepressants. Here we review a case of suspected pheochromocytoma and we present a novel theory about the real player behind all cases of pseudopheochromocytomas. Since in contrast to all other tumors, performing a tissue biopsy is detrimental in the case of pheochromocytomas, and therefore no one logically considers a tissue biopsy for adrenal gland, liquid biopsy( NETest by WREN Laboratory) is a great substitute with high accuracy to replace the tissue biopsy. We conclude that performing liquid biopsy on all cases of pseudopheochromocytoma is essentially life saving and can lead the clinician to appropriate course of action, when the other labs and functional imaging are inconclusive or negative. This is the very perfect example of why the traditional thinking of required presence of metanephrines in urine or blood, and nuclear studies(Dotetate scan/ Octrascan/ MiBG scan, etc…) for diagnosis of pheochromocytoma and surgical interventions depending on such tests is outdated.

Aims: The use of hematological parameters in the prognostic assessment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has become common in recent years. Thus, our study aimed to evaluate the relationship between hemoglobin to red cell distribution width (RDW) ratio (HRR) and prognosis of these patients.
Methods: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on patients who presented to the emergency department between 01.09.2023 and 01.04.2024 and received a diagnosis of ACS. HRR was determined by dividing the hemoglobin concentration by the red cell distribution width (RDW). The patients were categorized into two groups based on their HRR values: high HRR patients and low HRR patients, using a specified HRR cut-off value. Statistical comparisons were conducted on all parameters between the two patient groups. The variables potentially linked to mortality were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.
Results: The in-hospital mortality rate, vasopressor needs, and MV support requirements were significantly higher in the low HRR (≤0.828) group than in the high HRR (>0.828) group (p

Published: September 2024

The agenda for education globally is currently being driven by Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Among the seventeen goals, education’s SGD4 is a stand-alone goal whose priority Target One, articulates that by year 2030, all girls and boys should complete free, equitable and quality primary and secondary education. Kenya has strived towards this target of promoting access to education at these two levels through various approaches. This is arrived at through waiver of tuition fees, subsidies and putting in place other policies among them one hundred percent Transition policy so as to increase access to basic education at these two levels. However, even with tremendous growth in enrolments at primary school levels, not all of them complete primary school cycle. In addition, the transition to secondary school level is still a challenge, since out of those who complete primary school level, not everyone proceeds with education. On the other hand, transition rates to secondary school for boys and girls indicates that inequality still abound. This paper documents the extent to which Kenya has promoted twelve years of Universal Basic Education, the trends for Primary to Secondary Transition Rates (PSTR) from year 2011 to 2022, and establish the differences in transition rates between boys and girls. Lastly the obstacles that impede transition of pupils from primary to secondary school level, hence impacting on achievement of universal Basic education.
