Inception of electrical treeing can irreversibly deteriorate the insulation of polymeric power cables leading to a complete failure and initial process of degradation in polymer insulation due to a void that experiences high electric field stress in the material. This paper present will study filler’s influence on inception of electrical treeing growth in silicone rubber – oil palm endokaprium composite. The observed data is inception voltage and time phenomena in two types of test sample, that is " with filler " and " without filler ". Sample of filler consisted of silicone rubber and oil palm endokaprium composite for oil palm endokaprium weight is 0.1 grams and weight silicone rubber 3.9 gram. While the sample without filler is only silicone rubber . It is obtained that the tree inception voltages dan time for “with” dan “without filler” specimens are 8 kV / 182 seconds and 7,5 kV / 137 seconds, respectivelly.. It is considered that “filler” acted as a barrier for tree inception. We throught that “filler” enhanced dielectric strength of silicone rubber and oil palm endokaprium by disturbing high electric field stress, result in higher tree inception voltage and longer tree inception time.

Published: October 2020

Heat pump technologies have become widely used in space heating and air conditioning systems, and the heat pump can be used for low-temperature drying of capillary-porous materials.
Recuperative and condensing heat pumps, which allow both drying and cooling of the material, have become the most widespread.
The developed condensing heat pump drying unit with a mine chamber implements a low-temperature drying process of spherical capillary-porous materials at a drying agent temperature of 40-50°C with a decrease in material humidity by 11% to a final humidity of 8%.
Experimental studies on a heat pump drying unit for drying capillary-porous materials of spherical shape indicated a significant reduction in average energy costs per process up to 3700 - 4100 kJ/kg of evaporated moisture. The increase in energy consumption increases significantly in the second part of the second period, where heat consumption can reach 5000 - 5350 kJ/kg of evaporated moisture.
The use of condensing heat pumps for low-temperature drying of capillary-porous materials has shown high energy efficiency compared to existing drying technologies.

Published: October 2020

Cloud Storage service are frequently required for many corporate and government organizations. Most of cloud storage service providers are un-trusted, so it is not safe to keep the data in cloud for long period. Many are using cloud storage for data sharing that means it is not possible to send a big file in email, maximum 25 GB are allowed, for big files, files are uploaded in cloud storage and link is given to the data consumer. After Data consumer download the file, Data owner has to delete the file from the cloud for the security reasons, but most of time Data Owner forget to delete the file. To overcome this problem data self-destruction is proposed in many papers and now proposed system has Self-Destruction cum Self-Backup Process, which help the file to stay in the public cloud for certain period of times and it will be removed from the cloud storage and securely stored in another storage. To verify the integrity of the file HMAC is created while file is uploaded and Data Consumer can able to download the file and generate the HMAC, check the integrity of the file.

A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2010 to April 2011 to determining the prevalence of tick infestation, to identify the common tick species in cattle and to assess the major risk factors associated with the occurrence of tick species in Guba koricha district West Hararghe zone of Oromia regional state, southeast Ethiopia. Ticks were collected by searching and half body of animals using forceps on different regions of the animals’ body. A total sample of 384 cattle, 234 were found to be infested by one or more tick species an overall prevalence of 60.9%. The most predominant isolated ticks species in this study were R. pullchelus with isolation rate of 49.4% followed A. Varigatum with isolation rate of 30.3%, H. marginatum rufipes, the third predominant with isolation rate 11.8%. However, A. gemma, H. trucatum and R. Evertsi-evertsi was the least isolate which accounts for 3.6%, 2.4% and 2.35% respectively. Age, sex and body conditions scoring were found to be important risk factors associated with tick infestation. The prevalence of tick infestation between age and sex was statistically significant (X2=32.3075, CI=0.1323358-0265075, P=0.000 andX2=5.117, CI=0.1953184-0.0061713, P=0.037) respectively. However, breed and body condition were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Hereof, Ticks are obligate, blood feeding ecto-parasites that cause severe damage to the hides and skins of domestic cattle due to this reduce the foreign exchange of the country; and transmit tick borne diseases. Therefore, effective tick control programs should be formulated and implemented at national or regional level.
LOKSAMGRAH: AN AFFIRMATIVE THOUGHT FOR SOCIAL RECONSTRUCTION
Authors: Bishoyi Jatin 
Published: October 2020

For Bhagavad-Gita, both individual and society as a whole is dependent on three principal conditions for their existence such as Niskama karma, Svadharma and Loksamgrah. Loksamgrah is used in a very comprehensive connotation as it not only looks at the collective well-being of this world but the universe as a whole. It is because in Loksamgrah the word ‘Loko’ does not mean only people of this world but all the beings of satyaloka, pitruloka, devaloka, bhurloka and other loka. In Gitarahasya Tilak points out, “The word ‘Loksamgrah’ has been used in the Bhagavad-Gita to mean the maintenance, not only of human beings, but that the human and all others spheres, such as of the Gods etc. should be maintained, and that they should become mutually beneficial”. True to say the recommendation of Loksamgrah on our public life have triggered concerns that public services, ranging from physical world to metaphysical world could become more imperative but in fact, it only would have minimal impact on public life i.e. it only attempts to minimize distress and problems both at individual and society levels. As a whole it could only attempt to inculcate the values of public service and integrity attitude. Radhakrishnan points out that, “Loksamgrah stands for the unity of the world, the interconnectedness of society. If the world is not to sink into a condition of physical misery and moral degradation, if the common life is to be decent and dignified, religious ethics must control social action”.

Authors: Chaurasia Lokeshwar , Chaudhary Sanjay , Paudel Gita , Singh Jitendra Kumar 
Published: October 2020

Background and Objectives: Bacterial resistance has reached an alarming proportion in developing countries because of various reasons like indiscriminate use of antibiotics and its availability as over the counter (OTC) drugs. This study is to get an overview of students understanding of antibiotics and to compare the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) on antibiotic use among undergraduate medical students.
Material and methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted among undergraduate medical students of Janaki Medical College. A structured and customized self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data on socio-demographic and knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) regarding antibiotic use of medical students. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: Out of 183 undergraduate medical students from first, second and third year of Janaki medical College, 115 (62.8%) were male and 68 (37.2%) were female. Among medical students, mean rank of knowledge on antibiotic use among first year (mean rank = 89.36) and second year (mean rank = 87.50) was lower compared to third year (mean rank = 97.78). The mean rank for attitude among first year (mean rank = 87.75) and second year (mean rank = 94.38) was lower compared to third year (mean rank = 94.56). Likewise, practice of antibiotic use was low among first year (mean rank = 61.27) and second year (mean rank = 105.91) compared to third year students (mean rank = 115.19). There is significant difference of mean rank for the practice (p<0.0001) but not for knowledge and attitude on antibiotic use among the students studying in different years.
Conclusion: This study showed varying level of knowledge, attitude and practice on antibiotics use among undergraduate medical students of first, second and third year, suggesting that continuous educational intervention on rational use of antibiotic should be made mandatory in the all the academic years of undergraduate medical curriculum, for promoting judicious use of antibiotics, minimizing self-medication and impacts of antibiotic resistance, and for rational antibiotics prescription by future doctors.
Relationships between Body Weight Perception and Weight Management: Practices among Adolescents
Authors: Dhungel Kshitiz Upadhyay , Bhattarai Barsha 
Published: October 2020

Background and Objectives: Overweight and obesity are highly prevalent in western countries and growing problems in developing countries. Weight loss behaviors are highly prevalent among adolescents, and body weight perception motivates weight control practices. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships between actual body weight, body weight perception, and weight control practices among adolescents.
Material and methods: A questionnaire-based survey was used to collect data on anthropometric measurements, demographic information, weight perception and weight control practices from a sample of 200 male and female students (89 boys and 111 girls) aged between13 and19 year old. The association between weight loss attempts and socio demographic factors, weight status and the weight perception were analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the predictors of misperception and its association with weight-related behaviors. Cohen's kappa was calculated to analyze the accuracy of body weight perceptions.
Results: This study revealed that prevalence of underweight was higher in girls than boys. In this study, 8% were underweight including 3.5% severely underweight, 23.5% were overweight, 6% were obese and the rest of the participants (59%) were of normal weight. Only 61.5% respondents perceived their weight correctly. Perception of 21.5% adolescents was underestimated and 16.5% were overestimated than their actual weight status. Almost one third of the respondents were in weight control interventions. Almost 11% boys and 33% girls attempted weight loss activities. The gender biasness was seen in weight control (statistically significant ,p value =0.003). Body weight perception was found significant (p value, 0.001) in relation to weight control behavior.
Conclusion: Body weight perceptions are not in agreement with actual weight in adolescents. This discrepancy is more marked in females who use a variety of weight control behaviors. These behaviors are motivated more apparently by perceived weight rather than actual body mass index.

The amount of publications devoted to the endothelial cells, on the one hand, and neurological diseases, on the other hand, has been growing rapidly in recent years. Nevertheless, the relationship between the endothelial monolayer and the cells of the nervous system remains poorly studied. This review presents the available information about endothelial markers, molecular and cellular mechanisms for maintaining the integrity of the endothelial monolayer and the violations in some acute and chronic neuropsychiatric diseases. At the molecular level, the most important pathogenetic link in endothelial dysfunction is an imbalance of Ca2+ ions, which is associated with redox imbalance in the cells and increased generation of reactive oxygen species. Genetic and epigenetic factors that cause these disorders and their cause-and-effect relationships are considered. Of the genetic diseases, the most studied are monogenic diseases associated with impaired blood-brain barrier integrity: this is a deficiency of protein molecules that ensure glucose transport, structural and functional integrity of tight junctions and the basement membrane of endothelial cells themselves, as well as mutations in pericytes and smooth muscle cells. Mutations that increase the risk of developing known neurodegenerative diseases, but are also the cause of cerebrovascular pathology, are less studied. The small vessel diseases constitute a whole group of primarily epigenetically caused diseases, the clinical consequence of which is often vascular dementia. Special attention is paid to one of the least studied problems—the pathogenesis of toxicological diseases that occur at different times after acute and chronic organophosphate poisoning. Microangiopathies caused by damage to the endothelium in the central and peripheral nervous systems can be the main cause for the development of delayed effects in organophosphate poisoning. In the absence of effective therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, more and more evidence is emerging about the positive impact of the nutritional structure and healthy lifestyle on the state of blood vessels and the risk of developing these diseases.
Chronic pain in children with oncopathology: ways of solving the problem
Authors: Adamchuk N.M. , Sorokina O.Yu. 
Published: October 2020

Objective. Pain is one of the complications in children with acute leukemia, which requires timely and effective analgesic therapy. We decided to determine the effectiveness and tolerability of analgesia in children with acute leukemia depending on the method of analgesia.
Materials and methods. There was a survey of 60 children (3 groups of 20 children each). In group 1 conducted morphine analgesia, in group 2 – morphine in combination with gabapentin, in group 3 – paracetamol with gabapentin. Investigated performance of the cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract. The questionnaire “Feeling. Activity. Mood” was used to determine psycho-emotional disorders, visual-analogue scale and face scale was used to determine the intensity of pain.
Results and discussion. In group 1, all children had dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract and lability of blood pressure. In group 2, only 11 children had disorders of the digestive system, there were no cardiovascular complications. In group 3, only 5 children had lability of blood pressure. Averages activity in all three groups are almost identical and reflect favorable condition. The average health indicators are the lowest in the 1st group – 3.78±0.11 (p<0.05), in the 2nd group – 3.84±0.06 (p<0.05), and in the 3rd group – 4.01±0.09 (p<0.05). Mood indicators in groups 2 and 3 are almost the same – 4.04±0.12 (p<0.05) and 4.42±0.04 (p<0.05), respectively, and the worst in 1st group – 3.94±0.07 (p<0.05). The pain intensity according to visual-analogue scale on day 30 was in the 1st group ≤5 points, in the 2nd group ≤4 points and in the 3rd group ≤3 points. On day 78, the intensity of pain in group 1 was ≤5 points, in 2nd and 3rd groups – ≤3 points. Severe asthenia was observed only in 6 children (10 %) of the group 1, moderate asthenia – in 45 children (75 %) and the fatigue reaction – in 9 children (25 %).
Conclusions. The best tolerability of analgesia in children, receiving paracetamol with gabapentin, the worst – in children receiving only opiates. Children who combined opiates with gabapentin had better health and significantly fewer complications than children who received opiates alone.

Authors: Bentsa T.M. , Pastukhova O.A. 
Published: October 2020

Objective. Investigate directly the clinical efficacy of L-arginine aspartate in the treatment of patients with essential arterial hypertension (EAG) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).
Materials and methods. The study included 43 patients with EAG II in combination with type 2 DM. The mean age of patients was 55,7±0,6 years, of which 20 (46,5 %) were men and 23 (53,5 %) were women. The duration of the disease on the EAG averaged 8,4±0,4 years, on type 2 DM – 6,5±0,5 years. A comprehensive clinical, laboratory and instrumental examination was carried out. All patients were divided into two groups. Patients in both groups received ramipril 5-10 mg a day in combination with amlodipine 5-10 mg a day and antidiabetic drugs (metformin, gliclazide or a combination thereof) as basic therapy. Patients in group 2 (n=22) were additionally prescribed the drug L-arginine aspartate orally 3 g 3 times a day for 4 weeks. The course of treatment was repeated after 2 months.
Results and discussion. In group 2 there was a more pronounced tendency to decrease the average daily and night blood pressure levels, in particular diastolic (3,2 and 2,9 mm Hg; p>0,05) and heart rate (by 17,3 %; p<0,05). The use of L-arginine aspartate significantly improved systolic (ejection fraction increased by 7,1 % vs 4,4 % in group 1; p<0,05) and left ventricular (LV) diastolic function (Em/Am increased by 48,8 % vs 34,7 % in group 1; p<0,05), a decrease in the size of the left atrium (10,2 % vs 8,3 % in group 1; p<0,05) and the reversal of LV hypertrophy (index LV myocardial mass decreased by 20,1 % against 15,9 % in group 1; p<0,05). Additional administration of L-arginine aspartate also led to a decrease in fasting and postprandial plasma glucose (4,9 % and 7,0 %; p<0,05, respectively) than the use of basic therapy alone. At the same time in group 2 there was a decrease in microalbuminuria by 27,6 % (p<0,05) and an increase in glomerular filtration rate by 11,4 % (p>0,05).
Conclusions. L-arginine aspartate should be used in patients with EAG in combination with type 2 DM and microalbuminuria to increase the cardio- and nephroprotective efficacy of basic therapy.
The role of rating scales in the diagnosis of postoperative insomnia
Authors: Boduliev O.Yu. 
Published: October 2020

Background. Sleep disorders can be considered as an integral expression of the perioperative stress response. Postoperative insomnia is one of the most common postoperative complications: the incidence is exceed 70 %. The gold standard for the diagnosis of insomnia is polysomnography, which is rarely available in postoperative patients. Instead, rating scales are an easy-to-use, inexpensive and affordable tool.
Objective. To compare scales for assessment of sleep in postoperative patients.
Materials and methods. The study included 38 patients after general surgery. The age was 26-68 years (54.6±9.4). The gender distribution: 16 men and 22 women. All patients undergo an overnight 10-hour video-EEG. EEG patterns of insomnia were considered sleep latency of more than 30 min, wakefulness during sleep more than 30 min, total sleep time less than 6.5 h, sleep efficiency index <84 %. The Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), Richards – Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) was applied to patients the day after surgery. For reliability analysis was used Cronbach’s alpha. Were calculated sensitivity and specificity of the scales.
Results. Video-EEG patterns of insomnia was present in 15 subjects. The rest 23 subjects did not have signs of insomnia in video-EEG. The Cronbach’s alpha for AIS was 0.90, for RCSQ – 0.89 and for ISI – 0.86. The sensitivity of AIS for postoperative insomnia was 84.6 %, RCSQ – 76.9 % and ISI – 69.2 %. The specificity level was 85.7 % for AIS, 81.0 % for RCSQ, and 69.2 % for ISI.
Conclusions. The rating scales used in the study showed sufficient reliability, sensitivity and specificity and can be used as a valid method of assessing sleep in postoperative patients.
