Improvement of the Rheological and Filtration Properties of Drilling Mud Using the Syrian Clay
Authors: Barodi Adnan Ibrahim 
Published: May 2020

Drilling fluid properties and formulation play a fundamental role in drilling operations. The Classical water-based muds prepared from only the Syrian clay and water without any additives((Organic and industrial polymers) are generally poor in performance. Moreover, The high quantity of Syrian clay (120 gr / l) used in preparing drilling fluids. It leads to a decrease in the drilling speed and thus an increase in the time required to complete the drilling of the well. As a result, the total cost of drilling the well increased, as a result of an increase in the concentration of the solid part in the drilling fluid. In this context, our study focuses on the investigation of the improvement in drilling mud Prepared from the Syrian clay by reducing the clay concentration to (50 gr / L). And compensate for the remaining amount (70 gr / l) of clay by adding (natural and industrial polymers) The rheological properties and filtration are measured at different concentrations of polymers .. In light of the experiments, we determine the polymers' concentrations that gave good results in improving the flow properties and controlling the Filter. It is polymers that have given good results:، HEC، HEC and Xanthan Gum PAC and HEC، CMCHV، PolyAcryl Amid ، Xanthan Gum .

Published: May 2020

The Irritable Bowel Syndrom (IBS) is one of the most widespread functional disorders of digestive tract (FD GIT). According to biopsychosocial model the anxiety concerning feelings from digestive tract plays a key role in maintenance and, perhaps, in development of IBS. J. Labus proposed the new questionnaire — VSI — the Visceral Sensitivity Index or the index of gastrointestinal symptom-specifi c anxiety, later validated only for patients with IBS.Aim: to estimate the value of VSI in patients with IBS depending on a sex, age and clinical subtype of IBS and its correlation with a depression, anxiety and alexihymia.Methods: 245 patients with IBS were examined (women — 183, men — 62), middle age 45.31 ± 6.9 years (19–81). Initially, 10 patients from 245 selected patients with IBS did not answer to the questionnaire. 7 patients did not fill out the questionnaire. So, data from 228 patients with IBS which completely fill out the questionnaire was analyzed. According to the research objective the initial group of patients with IBS was divided into two subgroups: up to 45 years (the 1st group) and 45 years and older (the 2nd group). The 1st group included 120 patients; the 2nd group — 108 patients. IBS was confirmed by the diagnostic criteria of IBS according to Rome III (2006). Depression was assessed by the Beck’s Depression Inventori (BDI), anxiety — by the Stait-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) (by Spielberger-Hanin), alexithymia — by the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS).Results: The VSI was higher in the senior age group of IBS patients (2nd group), at the same time there were no gender differences in both groups. The greatest values of VSI were observed at patients with IBS-D subtype in both age groups. VSI was an independent indicator in the 1st subgroup of patients with IBS (age up to 45 years) while in the 2nd subgroup (senior age group) weak correlation with a depression and personal anxiety (r ≥0.4) was observed.Conclusion: The VSI can be used as the independent test refl ecting a psychoemotional condition of patients with IBS at a diagnostic stage.

Published: May 2020

Introduction: According to NHFS-4 data, around 38% of under-five Indian children are malnourished and stunted. In addition to poor socio-economic status, faulty complementary feeding practice is a major contributor to this. The objective of this study is to know the prevailing complementary feeding practices in our area, the most common food type preferred for introduction during initiation of complementary feeds, knowledge of the mother and their family members regarding complementary feeding, the factors influencing in decision making and its financial burden on the family.
Methods: This hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted in a private Medical College in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. 256 mothers of infants between six months to two years attending Paediatric OPD from December 2018 to June 2019 were selected by random sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire.
Results: Out of the total 256 subjects interviewed, 134 (76.13%) out of 176 families belonging to lower income group preferred commercially available processed food over home food as the initial weaning food as compared to 32 (40%) out of 80 of the high income group preferring the same. The lower income group spent 22.3% of the total family income on commercial preparations to feed their infants in the age group six to 12 months. Whereas high income group families spend an average of 14.3% of family income on baby food products in the same age group. Despite being in regular contact with the local physician, in 85% of the total visits to the doctor, the opportunity wasn’t utilised to counsel the family member about complementary feeding practices.
Conclusions: Commercial preparations are the primary preferred weaning food. The dietary diversity of complementary food is very poor, thus affecting growth and development. The false perception that commercial preparations are critical to child growth and development is overburdening the family finances.

Authors: Prasad Prem Lochan , Dawra Reetika , Chandra Surabhi 
Published: May 2020

Introduction: Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is the most common parasitic disease of the nervous system caused by the larval stage of Taenia solium (also known as pork tapeworm). Clinical manifestations are pleomorphic and determined mainly by the location, number and viability of cysts as well as by the host response. Neuroimaging is the most useful diagnostic study for parenchymal disease.
Methods: The study was conducted in the Paediatric Ward of a tertiary care teaching institute, Bareilly, India. The study was conducted on 50 subjects. The study was a hospital based, prospective, observational study. All admitted children between one year to 18 years and diagnosed to have neurocysticercosis were included the study. Statistical analysis was done by single and double sample proportion test. P value of less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: Maximum numbers of patients were in age group of five-14 years. Males (62%) were more commonly affected than females. Seizure was found to be the commonest presentation of NCC. In our study majority of cases were diagnosed by CT scan. 70% of the patients enrolled in this study demonstrated ring enhancing lesions on neuroimaging. Maximum number of patients had lesions in the parietal lobe followed by frontal lobe.
Conclusions: NCC is common in the age group of five to 14 years. Focal seizures were the most common presentation. Other symptoms were headache and vomiting. Vegetarians were more commonly affected than non vegetarians. Single ring enhancing lesion in parietal area was the commonest neuroimaging findings.

Published: May 2020

The article is devoted to the 90th anniversary of the Volgograd State Technical University (VSTU). The author views the components of the success formula of the University as a flagship University of the Volgograd region, and dwells on the historical facts of the creation of the Stalingrad tractor-building Institute at the beginning of the country’s industrialization and its development to a flagship University, which is a modern multi-campus University with a promising educational, scientific and industrial infrastructure. The article also presents the scientific schools of well-known scientists of the University that carry out fundamental and applied scientific research as well as the international activities of the University, including international cooperation in research, creation and modernization of educational programs, and export of educational services. In its multi-faceted activities, the flagship University focuses on solving urgent problems of socio-economic development of the region. The hybrid model of the flagship University is focused mainly on two typical models: «multi-disciplinary regional University» and «technology leader in the region». The article considers a number of systemic and structural transformations of the University in the framework of a hybrid model: an effective management system for supporting innovation, including socio-psychological attitudes and infrastructure changes; the development of additional education and the creation of conditions for business development.
Covid-19: A fecal-orally transmitted disease with severe involvement of the lungs
Authors: Rodriguez Carlos 
Published: May 2020

Undoubtely, the more salient feature, and the main cause of death, of the Covid-19 disease is its pulmonary involvement, the so-called Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome or ARDS. The fact that the cause of the 2003 SARS outbreak, the SARS-CoV1 virus, also induced a predominantly pulmonary disease, has put the focus on the lung, often overlooking one theme that is stubornly present at least in the Covid-19 disease: the viruses are isolated in the feces of patients (syntomatic or asymptomatic alike) much after the nasopharyngeal swabs become negative.

Here I present evidence strongly suggesting that, besides airborne spreading, the main transmission mode of the SARS-Cov-2 virus is of the faecal-oral type. I hypothesize that, in the near future, the Covid-19 disease could be silently transmitted through a predominantly faecal-oral mechanism. This model is based in the more than probable existence of an intestinal reservoir in convalescent and, more conspicuously, in the likely large cohort of asymptomatic carriers.

The implications of the study are broad and should prompt Health Authorities to planify the best possible ways to carry thoroughly designed programs to analize and curtail this mode of viral perpetuation and transmission.

O Livro Pistas do método da cartografia: Pesquisa-intervenção e produção de subjetividade organizado por Eduardo Passos, Virgínia Kastrup e Liliana da Escóssia é uma obra de 207 páginas, em oito capítulos denominados por “Pistas” que são estruturados no formato de coletânea de artigos, resultado da produção de pesquisa dos professores do Departamento de Psicologia da Universidade Federal Fluminense e do Instituto de Psicologia da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro orientadas pelos fundamentos teóricos de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari a partir da obra Os Mil Platôs publicada em 1995. Apresenta um diálogo metodológico que discute sobre as lacunas das pesquisas quantitativas e qualitativas, visto que ambas podem constituir práticas cartográficas, desde que garantam acompanhamento de processos. E neste ponto tem-se o principal fundamento sobre a pesquisa com base no método da cartografia social, quer dizer, o processo da investigação orientado por um método igualmente processual. A perspectiva da obra não é definir regras ou protocolos de passos metodológicos de pesquisas, traz diversos estudos que apresentam pistas para o entendimento sobre a cartografia social que respeita as especificidades da autoria e dos diversos contextos de investigações. Por fim, seus artigos oportunizam a compreensão da expressão do método na prática com articulação teórica da pesquisa-intervenção, entendendo que, exprimem parâmetros importantes para todos que queiram compreender o método cartográfico e desenvolver pesquisa nesta fundamentação metodológica, como pesquisadores, professores e estudantes de graduação e pós-graduação das diversas áreas implicadas com as ciências sociais.

THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF KENYA TO THE TRANSFORMATION OF KIRINYAGA DISTRICT, 1910-2010
Authors: Akattu E. , A. J. Ndeda M. , Gimode E. 
Published: May 2020

Drawing on the theory of social capital, the initial attraction of Kirinyaga people to the Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) mission centres were the schools, hospitals, demonstration gardens and artisan skills that imparted by missionaries. The ACK established Christian communities in Kirinyaga that became centres of early Christian converts and change. The Christian communities constituted “the germ of the missionary spirit.” The ‘new’ Christians would take a great deal of pleasure in spreading the “germ” to many communities in Kirinyaga, ‘infecting’the more susceptible of its members. Each Christian community endeavored to have a church, an elementary school, a hospital and a demonstration garden. This in itself was an extraordinary change. This study has presented evidence of Kirinyaga’s cultural, socio-economic and political homogeneity as fundamental part of traditional life. European settlement in Kenya made oppression and injustice virtually inevitable and mission response to African issues ranged from land and labor to taxation and wages. The Anglican CMS almost exclusively provided such public services as schooling, healthcare and agriculture. This study also discussed regionalization of ACK CCS as a concept of community development focusing on CCSMKE serving the whole community in Kirinyaga, with priority on the most disadvantaged parts of the region, whether or not there are any Anglican congregations in that region. One of the discussions advanced in this study, is that the Anglican Church in Kirinyaga should have concern for Kirinyaga people as the concern of her social gospel. The study articulates a “theology of development” which argues that social gospel that is based on exploitation and oppression of Kirinyaga people cannot be genuine social gospel.
