Authors: TOPTAN Müslüm , ÇADIRCI Dursun , KOÇAKOĞLU Şenay 
Published: December 2021

Aim: Red eye, a frequent cause of presentations to ophthalmology clinics, is an important indicator of ocular inflammation. Although the prognosis is generally good and self-limiting, it is possible to distinguish possible serious conditions and prevent important situations such as blindness, with detailed examination and correct treatment approach. The purpose of this study was to evaluate patients with red eye presenting to the eye diseases clinic in terms of clinical and sociodemographic characteristics.
Material-method: The records of patients presenting to the Şanlıurfa Harran University Hospital Ophthalmology Clinic with red eye were investigated retrospectively. Diseases causing red eye were classified according to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD 10) coding system. Demographic characteristics such as age and sex and clinical findings were examined. Data were evaluated using number and percentage tests.
Results: A total of 2625 patients, 1775 males (67.61%) and 850 females (32.38%), who presented with red eyes, were evaluated. The mean age of the patients was 36.46±18.24 years. The incidence of viral conjunctivitis, the most frequently observed condition in patients presenting due to red eye, was 15.08% (n=396). The most common cause of red eye resulting in decreased vision and increased intraocular pressure (IOP) was acute angle closure glaucoma (AACG). The most common symptom was stinging-burning (70.36%), and the most frequent finding was follicular hyperplasia (74.17%). Five hundred and seventy-one (21.75%) patients who applied to the clinic with red eye had previously applied to a family physician and 289 patients (11.0%) to an emergency physician.
Conclusion: Although prognosis is usually good in red eye, and the condition is self-limiting, the detection of serious conditions through a detailed history, examination, and therapeutic approach can be enhanced with early and appropriate intervention. In addition to family physicians and emergency physicians, the first to examine patients with red eye, important morbidities such as blindness can also be prevented by increasing the awareness of ophthalmologists and cooperation between these.

Published: December 2021

Despite significant advances in open heart surgery over the last two decades, postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are considered the most important causes that contribute to patient morbidity, mortality and prolonged hospital stay. The ultimate goal of this paper was to investigate the risk factors which increasing the incidence rate of pulmonary complications after open heart surgery of Jordanian patients. A retrospective design using an existing coronary artery surgery database of adults (n = 200) who had undergone open heart surgery between August 2014 and July 2015 at a University Hospital in Jordan. A structured PPCs instrument was used to assess ‘PPCs risk factors assessment sheet’. According to the results, the proposed model provides a preliminary indication of risk factors placing open heart surgical patients at risk of PPCs. Determining patients who are at risk of developing PPC’s after cardiac surgeries are the first step towards its prevention. This reduces its burden in term of morbidity, mortality and cost.

Keywords: Jordan, open heart surgery, predictors, pulmonary complications, risk factors.
Kilka uwag o księgach, nie tylko uczonych, w prozie Andrzeja Sapkowskiego
Authors: Walc Krystyna 
Published: December 2021

Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels are not typical “books about books”. However, both The Witcher cycle and The Hussite Trilogy abound in themes associated with them. The characters read, own book collections, they themselves are authors of various works. From the titles listed in individual texts, one could compile quite an extensive bibliography. This fact encourages a description of the way various texts exist in the world presented by the creator of The Witcher.
Education of a young protagonist is a good opportunity to present books one reads, and the use of this readings in further life.
Contrary to what the reader would expect, the book collections he learns about do not belong to universities. As for the library in Oxenfurt, we only know its roof, which is used by poet Jaskier, wanting to free himself from the spies following him. The scholarly books can be found in various places, even in a hut in a remote area (behind a curtain of dubious purity), inhabited by the scholar in exile — Vysogota from Corvo.
Not only universities and scholars (including wizards) have impressive book collections. Duchess Anarietta, who hosts the witcher and his team, has a huge library in her palace in Toussaint.
The subject of banned books appears in The Hussite Trilogy, so the hidden library motif is the obvious motive.
Some protagonists of The Witcher cycle are authors of books. It is worth emphasizing that the reader has the opportunity to learn at least fragments of the mentioned works. They are also read by other characters. Quotes from the characters’ works also appear in mottoes.

Decreasing NOx Emissions by Way of the Staged Fuel Combustion
Authors: Lohvyniuk Maksym , Novakivskyy Yevhen 
Published: December 2021

The purpose of this scientific paper was to analyze the mathematical model built for the staged arrangement of the fuel combustion system and calculate the formation of nitrogen oxides throughout the boiler furnace height for the different distributions of thermal loadings along the full vertical extent of the combustion chamber. The obtained results enable the determination of the overall amount of nitrogen oxides formed in the boiler and it allows us to provide appropriate ecological indices for the boiler when regulating the air concentration in the burner rows. In practice, to suppress the formation of nitrogen oxides we often use such basic methods as low-toxic burners, staged fuel combustion, flue gas recirculation, etc. The analysis of the computations done allows us to draw a conclusion that the operation of the boiler with ecological indices that satisfy standard values of the European Directive 2010/75/EU is only possible for the load below 40 %. After reconstruction of the burner system and adjustment of the air supply system with the observation of above ecological norms the boiler power can be increased up to 80 % using the staged fuel burning with the ensurance of environmental performances during its operation. Computational and experimental data errors varied in the range of 8 % to 12 %. With the increase in the overall chemical incomplete combustion by 40 % to 60 % (q3) these losses are compensated by a decrease in absolute losses due to the boiler aggregate load and the losses through external walls (q5) due to an increase in the boiler power.

Published: December 2021

The paper provides a brief overview of the standard capabilities of X-ray techniques for studying materials with examples of modern performance of elemental and structural studies. X-ray research methods make it possible to reveal the elemental and phase-structural state. Thanks to modern software and electronic databases, the use of previously complex techniques is becoming simpler and more accessible. To illustrate the solution of specific problems, several examples of obtaining and decoding diffraction patterns and identifying the phase composition of the coating and ceramic material are given. An example of work in modern specialized software for acceleration and automation of phase identification is shown. For clarity, an example of identifying phases using electronic database cards is presented, which is still used today for manual decoding. The practice of interaction between researchers shows that even specialists in the field of X-ray structural analysis are not always aware of modern methods of processing and decoding the obtained data. The possibilities and algorithm of action in research can be interesting for students, engineers, researchers of materials science and mechanical engineering profile.

Authors: Sova Nataliia , Khudaiberdiieva Kristina , Kovalenko Nataliia , Mykhnenko Ilona 
Published: December 2021

Flour confectionery products occupy an important place in the diet of the population of our country, and the world and are in great demand. A significant disadvantage of this group of products is the low content of vital essential substances, such as vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, etc., and the high content of carbohydrates and lipids. Demand for these products necessitates the need to adjust the chemical composition of these foods. One of the most famous representatives of flour confectionery is cupcakes. In the recipes of cupcakes, the largest share occupies such types of refined raw materials like wheat flour, granulated sugar, fats, which cause an imbalance in their chemical composition, low nutritional value, and high caloric content. As biologically active additives of plant origin, flour from the seeds of various niche crops (flax, hemp, sesame, amaranth, etc.) can be added to the cupcake recipe. After all, this type of raw material is valuable for its composition (the content of proteins, fats, essential amino acids, and fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, etc.) and health properties. The recipe for cupcakes enriched with flour from the seeds of niche crops has been developed. The prototype for the study was chosen recipe for the cake “Stolychnyi”. Hemp, flax, pumpkin, and sesame flour were chosen as raw materials. Organoleptic, physicochemical quality indicators, nutritional, and energy value of finished products are determined. Based on the results of the organoleptic evaluation of cupcake samples, determination of their physicochemical quality indicators, comparison with the production sample, we recommended the introduction of a cupcake enriched with low-fat hemp flour. The protein content in this sample was 8.85 g/100 g, fat – 17.83 g/100 g, carbohydrates – 51.8 g/100 g, energy value – 396.85 kCal / 100 g of product. Due to the functional properties of hemp flour, the resulting product can be attributed to health products.
KONTEKSTUALISASI PEMAHAMAN HADIS AL-IFKI (HOAX) DALAM BERINTERAKSI DI MEDIA SOSIAL: Aplikasi Hermeneutika Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd

<p><span>Artikel ini membahas tentang pemahaman </span><em><span>hadis al-ifki </span></em><span>yang menceritakan tentang fitnah yang dituduhkan oleh Aisyah. Hadis tersebut mengandung beberapa isu yang bisa ditarik ke zaman media sosial sekarang, di mana banyak terjadi pergeseran penggunaannya. Media sosial bukan lagi menjadi sarana untuk menyebarkan informasi yang berguna menambah wawasan masyarakat, tapi juga menjadi sarana untuk menyebarkan fitnah, ujaran kebencian, dan hoax. Maka dari itu, penulis mencoba mengontekstualisasikan pemahaman dari </span><em><span>h</span><span>adis al-Ifki</span></em><span>. Penulis menggunakan Hermeneutika yang digagas oleh Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd, di mana dalam metodologinya terdapat tiga prinsip yang harus dilakukan, yaitu mencari, <em>dalalah, maghza, </em>dan, <em>maskut ‘anhu. </em>Hasil dari aplikasi menggunakan Hermeneutika Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd adalah bahwa dalam bermedia sosial perlu bagi pengguna untuk memberikan informasi yang baik, sebab hal tersebut akan dinilai sedekah. Pengguna media sosial juga perlu untuk menghargai perasaan orang lain ketika akan memosting sesuatu. Selain itu, jika tidak dapat melakukan hal yang bersifat positif bagi media sosial, maka lebih baik diam.</span></p><p>[<strong><span>Contextualization of Understanding <em>Hadith al-Ifki</em> on Social Media Interaction: An Application of Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd's Hermeneutics</span></strong><span>.

The hadith contains several issues that can be drawn into the current era of social media, where there are many shifts in its use. Social media is no longer a means to disseminate useful information to broaden the public's knowledge, but also a means to spread slander, hate speech, and hoaxes.

Activated Sludge-Assisted Phytoremediation For Dye Removal
Authors: Hocini Imene , Benabbas Khaled , Khellaf Nabila , Djelal Hayet , Amrane Abdeltif 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
We report the biodegradation of dye pollutants by a green process that combines the microbial activity of activated sludge with phytoremediation ability of the aquatic plant L. gibba. The obtained results showed that the combination of the two processes when the pollutant was present at concentration of 50 mg/L, lead to a dye removal of 95 and 70% for VB-20 and DR-89, respectively. The biodegradability index based on COD and BOD5 measurement was equal to 3.1 for DR-89 and 2.0 for VB-20, confirming that DR-89 was removed by biosorption phenomena and only VB-20 was transformed into biodegradable compounds. UV-visible, FT-IR and LC/MS analysis were used as a tool for the monitoring of the biodegradation metabolite and the results showed that VB-20 biodegradation occurred by the cleavage of anthraquinone cycle and transformation of aromatic compounds to light hydrocarbon chain; this was further confirmed by the calculation of Fukui index using DFT method. This study highlighted the synergy between the phytoremediation and biodegradation process for organic dye removal.
Scattering Processes with the Emission of Longitudinal Optical Phonons in the Landau Level System In GaAs/AlGaAs Quantum Well
Authors: The Ngo Vinh Doan , Canh Trung Le 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The scattering processes of longitudinal optical phonons in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells in a quantizing magnetic field are considered. The time of intrasubband scattering between Landau levels is calculated by using Fermi's golden rule. The dependence of the scattering rate on the magnitude of the magnetic field has been shown and the magnetic field can suppress scattering processes on longitudinal optical phonons. It is found that the scattering time depends linearly on the width of the quantum well.
Boundary-layer Features in Limit of Conservative Nonlinear Oscillators
Authors: Zarmi Yair 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In the double limit of high amplitude (xmax → ∞) and high leading power (x2 N+1, N → ∞), (1+1) dimensional conservative nonlinear oscillatory systems exhibit characteristics akin to boundary layer phenomena. The oscillating entity, x(t), tends to a periodic saw-tooth shape of linear segments, the velocity, x′(t), tends to a periodic step-function and the x − x′ phase-space plot tends to a rectangle. This is demonstrated by transforming x and t into proportionately scaled variables, η and θ, respectively. η(θ) is (2-π) periodic in θ and bounded (|η(θ)| ≤ 1). The boundary-layer characteristics show up by the fact that the deviations of η(θ), η′(θ) and the η − η′ phase-space plot from the sharp asymptotic shapes occurs over a range in θ of O(1/N) near the turning points of the oscillations.
Mathematical Approach to N-Centered DFT and Associated Methods for the Study of Open Systems
Authors: Grente Guillaume 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
A fundamental aspect of the study of N−electronic systems (systems containing N electrons) is to obtain information on the states in which these systems have minimal energy. In practice a numerical search of such states is impossible to carry out, so that alternative approaches have been developped, the one around which this work revolves being to consider electronic systems through their electronic density rather than their state. This approach, known today as Density Functional Theory (DFT), was formalised in Kohn and Sham’s seminal article [1] and its mathematical aspects were studied a few years later by Lieb [2]. Since then, the ideas leading to the construction of DFT have been adapted to the context of electronic systems with a fractionnal number of electrons (open systems), first through PPLB DFT[3] and more recently through the definition of N−centered DFT[4, 5]. In both cases it is unclear wherether the mathematical properties established for classical DFT can be expected to hold true. This question is the main problematic of our work, in which we shall study the analogy between N−centered and classical DFT, from their construction to the methods that are derived from them. This will lead us to construct a Kohn-Sham scheme for N−centered DFT, investigate the links between this theory and optimal transport and present the Hubbard Dimer in this particular situation.

Abstract
BackgroundHepatitis B infection is a worldwide health concern infecting more than 400 million people worldwide. Besides the active immunization program of WHO, the role of antivirals for treating the chronic infection is inevitable. The tribal belt of Pakistan is the most affected part in war against terror. In addition to lack of basic facilities and resources, this part of country has also been neglected for various health related studies. In this study we report the efficacy of the commonly used antivirals; Entecavir (ETV) and Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF).MethodsA total of 2875 HBV infected patients (Male = 1500 and Female = 1375) of different age groups who were receiving either ETV as monotherapy or ETV plus TDF were followed up for 6 and 12 months. Viral DNA was extracted from serum followed by amplification and detection with MyGo Real-Time thermocycler and Gene Proof PCR kit. Response towards antivirals was analyzed statistically with Pearson’s Chi Square test. ResultsComparable response (p=0.171) was observed among the HBV patients towards both six (27%) and twelve month antiviral therapy (36%). Duration of antiviral therapy improved the rate of response in male and patients of old age (p=0.001 & <0.001 respectively). However, female were found relatively more responsive than males towards both six and twelve antiviral therapy (p=0.001 & 0.003 respectively). Furthermore, ETV plus TDF combination proved little more effective for twelve months (p=0.035). Patients of Khyber (p=0.198) and Kurrum (p=0.440) regions are equally responsive towards 6 and 12 month treatment. Compared to ETV monotherapy, ETV plus TDF improved response among the male, patients above 40 years and patients from different tribal region (Bajaur, Kurrum, Malakand and Mohmand). ConclusionOur findings demonstrate that the ETV monotherapy and ETV plus TDF combination therapy are not effective for the HBV infection because both do not achieve SVR rate even in 50% of patients following six and twelve-month follow-up. Therefore, there is a need of much more effective antiviral drugs to treat HBV infection in the study area.
