Authors: Veríssimo Gomes Rodolfo , De Sousa Picado Bárbara , De Sousa Manuel 
Published: September 2021

Introdução: A pericardiocentese é uma técnica valiosa no diagnóstico e tratamento de doentes com derrame pericárdico, já tendo sido testados vários métodos para reduzir complicações e aumentar a taxa de sucesso deste procedimento. O objectivo deste estudo foi avaliar o sucesso do procedimento, utilização de ecocardiograma, taxa de complicações e utilidade para o estudo etiológico de doentes com derrame pericárdico.
Material e Métodos: Análise retrospectiva de 55 pericardiocenteses realizadas em 48 doentes entre Janeiro de 2013 e Dezembro de 2019 numa Unidade de Cuidados Intensivos de um hospital periférico.
Resultados e Discussão: O procedimento foi assistido por ecocardiograma em 64% dos casos, tendo sido verificada uma taxa de sucesso de 100%, de complicações de 9,1% e de recorrência de 12,7%. Verificou-se maior número de punções necessárias para o sucesso, maior taxa de complicações e maior gravidade destas quando a pericardiocentese não foi guiada por ecocardiograma, o que explica outcomes piores face a outras séries realizadas sempre com apoio ecocardiográfico. A análise citoquímica do líquido pericárdico não permitiu extrapolar os critérios de Light do derrame pleural, no entanto verificou-se uma tendência para associação entre casos clássicos de exsudado (neoplasia e infecção) e LDH elevado no líquido pericárdico; ADA>50 U/L foi muito específico para derrame pericárdico de origem tuberculosa. A etiologia mais comum foi neoplásica (33%, n = 16), com uma sobrevida média de 5,7 meses nestes doentes, comparando com 21,6 meses nas outras causas.
Conclusão: A pericardiocentese guiada por ecocardiograma teve uma elevada taxa de sucesso associada a menor percentagem de complicações, pelo que se defende a sua utilização em todos os procedimentos. Esta técnica tem um principal objectivo terapêutico nos derrames moderados a graves, visto que não foi possível obter critérios suficientemente úteis para estabelecer um diagnóstico etiológico.

Published: September 2021

As misturas sólidas e líquidas no curso fluvial são intensificadas em áreas de confluência de rios condicionadas principalmente pela abertura angular da junção. O conhecimento da dinâmica hidrossedimentológica em junções de leito rochoso com diferentes aberturas angulares é fundamental para entendimento do ajustamento morfológico nas confluências e subsidiar ações de preservação e conservação dos ecossistemas fluviais. Nesse sentido, o presente trabalho apresenta os resultados de um estudo hidrogeomorfológico sobre confluência fluvial com ângulo de junção obtuso (>100º), em rio de planalto com leito rochoso, na Formação Serra Geral. A pesquisa avaliou segmento fluvial a montante e jusante do rio das Pedras e no tributário rio das Pombas, em Guarapuava, Paraná, por meio de observações e mensurações das características morfológicas e hidráulicas largura, profundidade do talvegue, declividade do leito e vazão em margens plenas. O ajustamento morfológico em confluências obtusas é peculiar, uma vez que o ângulo de junção fluvial condiciona uma dinâmica específica de fluxo, erosão, transporte e deposição de sedimentos, resultado principalmente de sua associação com a natureza geológica do leito fluvial e os tipos de uso e manejo da terra a montante da confluência. Hydrogeomorphology of an obtuse fluvial confluence, Guarapuava, Paraná A B S T R A C TSolid and liquid mixtures in river courses intensify in areas of river confluence, conditioned mainly by the angular opening of the junction. Knowledge of hydrosedimentological dynamics in bedrock junctions with different angular openings is essential for understanding morphological adjustment at confluences and for supporting actions for the preservation and conservation of river ecosystems. For this reason, this article presents the results of a hydrogeomorphologic study on a river confluence with an obtuse junction angle (>100º), in a plateau bedrock river, in the Serra Geral Formation. The research evaluated a fluvial segment upstream and downstream of the Pedras River and in the Pombas River tributary, in Guarapuava, Paraná, through observations and measurements of morphological and hydraulic characteristics, width, talweg depth, bed declivity and bankfull flow. Morphological adjustment in obtuse confluences is peculiar in that the fluvial junction angle conditions specific flow, erosion, sediment transport and deposition dynamics, mainly resulting from its association with the geological nature of the river bed and types of land use and management upstream of the confluence. Keywords: Fluvial channel stability, bedrock, fluvial morphology.

Terminalia arjuna is native to India and occurs naturally along the banks of streams and rivers. The species is characterized to dry deciduous forests. The present study was carried out for the growth and physiological changes of T. arjuna in different elevated CO2 levels. Open top chambers were used to expose plants to ambient and elevated CO2 concentrations (400 and 800 ppm). The experiment was conducted in the month of March to August in 2019 for six months. The results showed that the growth parameters, i.e. plant height, collar diameter, the number of leaves, were found to be increased in elevated CO2 conditions. The percentage increase in physiological parameters like photosynthetic rate (28.82), mesophyll efficiency (60 % more in elevated CO2 condition), CO2 concentration (55 % more in elevated CO2), vapour pressure deficit (4.83 at 800 ppm) and water use efficiency (5.94 at ppm) increased. In contrast, transpiration rate (5.38 at 800 ppm and 10.11 ppm at ambient condition) and stomatal conductance (30% less in 800 ppm) decreased under elevated CO2 compared to ambient conditions. The study concluded that changing climatic conditions and significantly elevated CO2 in future may profoundly influence plant growth and the physiological response of T. arjuna.

Published: September 2021

Renewable energy is considered as next alternative to fossil fuels and nowadays, it attracts much attention in agriculture and environmental protection. Application of solar photovoltaic system is drying and dehydration of products, heating, irrigation, greenhouse and power generation etc. Temperature and sun radiation varies nonlinearly. Power generation varies with reference to radiation and temperature in photo-voltaic (PV) system. PV characteristic is nonlinear and PV cell is the basic unit for electricity generation. To get the characteristic response of PV, it aimed to develop a solar cell/panel model and array on a platform like MATLAB. In this research paper, step by step procedure has been defined for modelling solar cell, panel, and array models of the photovoltaic system. Kyocera solar KC-200GT 200W solar panel is used as a reference model for further modelling. The PV array characteristic are simulated for different irradiance(200W/m2,400 W/m2 ,600 W/m2 ,800W/m2 ,1000W/m2)and temperature variation(25°C, 35°C, 45°C, 55°C, 75°C). The output characteristic of the reference model matches with simulated results. The output reduced when the solar irradiation reduced from 1000 to 200 W/m2. As the temperature increased, the output voltage decreases, whereas the output current increases slightly. This model would be useful for investigating the effect of different parameters like series resistance, shunt resistance, thermal voltage, solar cell temperature coefficient of short circuit current etc. It would also be useful for investigating the working parameters like temperature & radiation condition and different series and parallel combinations of panels. This modelling is useful in investigating the performance of solar arrays in different applications of solar power generation, as well as modelling provides a major role in the mounting of PV panels.

Published: September 2021

Phenolic compounds contribute to the antioxidant property of plants and the efficient extraction of plant phenolics could enhance its antioxidant potential. Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.) Pers. has been investigated for its pharmacological activities, but comparing its antioxidant activities of phenolics derived from its various parts has a key role in developing natural antioxidants. This study was conducted to standardize the extraction of phenolics from leaves, pods and branches of L. speciosa plant, followed by determination of antioxidant activities of their solvent fractions. Phenolic compounds were extracted from the leaves, pods and branches under different parameters such as temperature, pH, type of solvent and volume of the solvent. The extracted phenolic compounds were subjected to solvent fractions and antioxidant assays were performed. Among the various extraction methods tested, the best method was 50% ethanol +1% HCl, refluxing temperature, 100 ml of solvent and 1 hour extraction time. The best solvent fractions were determined as NaHCO3 + ethyl acetate for pods and ethyl acetate alone for leaves and branches with extracted phenolics content of 150.2 mg/g, 136.2 mg/g and 82.9 mg/g, respectively. The chloroform fraction was best among the fractions with maximum ascorbic acid equivalent (ASE) in all the parts of L. speciosa tested. Ferrous ion chelating capacity indicated that butanol fraction had the highest chelation and the same was recorded in ferric ion chelating assay with an EC50 value of 28.2. Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the fractions indicated that NaHCO3 + EtOAc fraction of pods had potential activity. Thus, the phenolic compounds from L. speciosa are excellent sources for future investigation on potent natural antioxidant compounds.

The breeding population of birds are dynamic and are affected by multiple factors including climate and local environmental conditions. However, often to understand such relations requires long-term data modelling. Such long-term population data is either lacking or has data gaps. This study demonstrates the use of Multiple Imputation Chained Equation (MICE) to overcome the problem of missing data population census. This is also the first comprehensive study, modelling the 36-year (1980-2015) long-term breeding population data of a near-threatened bird, Painted Stork, from Keoladeo National Park, India. It tests the effect of local water availability, i.e., water released to the park, and regional rainfall, i.e, climatic condition, on the breeding population using Generalised Additive Model (GAM). Both imputation and observed data series-based GAM models identified the local water availability as the most important factor influencing the breeding population of Painted Stork. More than 80% population decline was observed, despite a slight increase in the rainfall at regional scale, suggesting local hydrological conditions are limiting to the breeding population and not the climate. According to the visual assessment of partial plot of GAM, minimum 200-300 million cubic feet of water is needed each nesting season to ensure sustenance of breeding population. Post-1989, the breeding population was unable to match the long-term mean (~726) except in 1992, 1995, and 1996. The maximum decline was observed between 2000-2009, a decade of frequent droughts. The breeding population was stable until the end of this study, but it was far below the long term mean.
Atlantoaxial Rotary Subluxation in Marfan Syndrome
Authors: Wei John Ong Ying , Chan Tin , Lo William , Wimalachandra Buddhika 
Published: September 2021

Atlantoaxial rotary subluxation (AARS) is a rare condition that may cause persistent torticollis if not treated appropriately. AARS is associated with ligamentous abnormalities, which may result from acquired or congenital disorders. We report the case of a paediatric patient with congenital Marfan syndrome and AARS due to a minor traumatic head injury. A 9-year-old boy with a known diagnosis of Marfan syndrome (and extensive family history) encountered a traumatic head injury that presented as torticollis with a typical “cock-robin” head and neck orientation. AARS was diagnosed through a head and neck CT scan. He underwent initial conservative treatment involving a muscle relaxant (diazepam) and Miami-J collar. This was followed up with manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) and further cervical traction, which resolved the subluxation without more invasive treatment. To the best of our knowledge, AARS associated with Marfan syndrome has been rarely reported in literature. It is postulated that the ligamentous laxity associated with Marfan syndrome would increase the patient’s predisposition to AARS and more importantly, the propensity to require more invasive treatment (internal fixation). However, our patient unexpectedly responded well to conservative management, namely MUA and cervical traction. This illustrates that despite the increased ligamentous laxity in Marfan syndrome, it is still advisable to conservatively manage AARS before deciding to perform invasive internal fixation.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Supplementary Issue-2: 2021 Page: S15
A Healthy Young Lady with ‘Unprovoked’ Persistent Bilateral Pulmonary Embolism - Why?

Published: September 2021

Pulmonary embolism (PE) was reported in about 9% patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Seronegative APS is an entity which demonstrates clinical manifestations highly suggestive of APS but persistently negative APS antibodies. A 31-year-old lady presented with a two-month history of exertional dyspnoea. She had two consecutive miscarriages at 12 and 14 weeks, previously. Physical examination revealed a thin lady who was tachycardic, tachypneic, hypoxic but normotensive. There was a loud P2 without signs of heart failure. Investigations revealed a type 1 respiratory failure, sinus tachycardia with right ventricular strain pattern, cardiomegaly with normal lung fields, and dilated right atrium and right ventricle with increased in pulmonary arterial pressure of 70mmHg from echocardiography. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) confirmed the presence of PE over bilateral pulmonary arteries. She continued to have exertional dyspnoea and was readmitted 9 months later with worsening dyspnoea. APS antibodies performed during both admissions were negative. Seronegative APS was diagnosed. Interestingly, two CTPAs performed at 6 months and 9 months after initial presentation revealed persistent bilateral pulmonary embolism. The provoking factors for PE should be sought because ‘unprovoked’ PE especially in young individuals need further attention. APS, including seronegative APS, should be considered. Persistence of symptoms of PE also warrants further attention as chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) may be the cause. Currently, there are available medical and surgical treatment of CTEPH, therefore establishing its diagnosis is important and it is best performed in pulmonary hypertension expert centre.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Supplementary Issue-2: 2021 Page: S25

La inclusión es un tema con sobrada importancia hoy en día ya que al ser parte de las leyes se considera un asunto relacionado principalmente con los derechos humanos. De esta forma la inclusión en particular para personas con discapacidad, es un punto que las instituciones de educación superior deben tomar en cuenta no solo como parte del establecimiento de políticas gubernamentales, sino como el derecho de toda persona con discapacidad para recibir educación de calidad. Por ello, el presente artículo plantea una propuesta para que la evaluación de un programa de calidad tienda también a ser considerada en términos de su capacidad incluyente hacia la discapacidad.
Inclusion is a topic with more than enough importance today, since being part of the law it is considered a related subject mainly to human rights. Thus the inclusion particularly for people with disabilities is an issue that higher education institutions should take into account not only as part of establishing government policies, but as the right of all persons with disabilities to receive quality education. Therefore this article presents a proposal for the assessment of a quality program store also to be considered in terms of their ability to disability inclusive.
