Authors: Moroz D. G. , Bludyan N. O. , Aleksyuk S. S. , Ayriev R. S. 
Published: September 2019

The article considers the technological aspects of organization of passenger and baggage transportation by taxi cabs in megacities, referring particularly to the practices of a number of countries.The authors analyze l e g a l regulation and technological development of taxi services in Moscow metropolitan area, including the current system for organizing the work of passenger taxi dispatch services taking into account centralization of information flows in a single city system.An analysis of methods for planning placement of taxi ranks shows that outdated approaches are used to solve that problem without using modern information and communication technologies. In this regard, the methodological foundations of planning the organization of taxi ranks based on geoinformation data in the city of Moscow are proposed.The studies and analysis made it possible to determine relevance and feasibility of existing and justification for planning of new taxi ranks, taking into account the requirements for rationality of location of taxi ranks from the point of view of ensuring a small walking distance for passengers, as well as reducing time of car delivery. The proposed method using accurate coordinates transmitted by the largest taxi dispatch service companies into the Unified Regional Navigation and Information System of the city of Moscow allows to implement these requirements.
Environmental Impact of ICE Vehicles and Battery Electric Vehicles: Comparison and Assessment of Impact Factors
Authors: Gaevskiy V. V. , Odinokova I. V. 
Published: September 2019

In 2017 the number of motor vehicles, being in operation in the world, exceeded 1,5 billion units. Motorization has caused serious problems for safety of the environment, life and health of humans.This article discusses various factors of impact of motorisation and automobilisation on the environment.Until recently, harmful emissions from vehicles have been considered as the main significant factor in environmental pollution. Due to implementation of the technical policy for implementation of EURO environmental standards, the «center of gravity» in the problems of improving the environmental safety of vehicles is moving towards minimising the heat entering the environment after being emitted by motor vehicles engines. The greatest practical interest is associated with the recovery of energy spent on traction, as the recovery increases the energy efficiency of road transport while reducing the negative impact on the environment.A comparative assessment of cars with internal combustion engines and battery electric vehicles showed that the overall negative impact of comparable vehicles on the environment currently differs slightly.It is necessary to continue research and development in the field of energy recovery problems.

Authors: Poudel Sashi , Sharma Kalpana 
Published: September 2019

Background: Job satisfaction is a major factor in nurse retention and the de­livery of high quality care. Hence, aim of this study was to find out the factors affecting job satisfaction among nurses working in the teaching hospital, Chit­wan.
Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional research design was used and a total 135 nurses who were working for at least 3 months in the Chitwan Medical Teaching Hospital were taken as study sample. Simple random sampling tech­nique was used to select the desired sample. Pre-tested structured self-admi­nistered questionniare with job satisfaction scale consisting eight domains was used to collect the data. Obtained data were entered into SPSS version 20.0 for window and analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (chi-square test).
Results: The findings of the study revealed that more than half (57.85%) of the nurses were satisfied with their job. Nurses’ job satisfaction was higher on organization and administration policies (4.18±0.04) and least on salary and benefits (3.01±0.19) they were receiving from the institution. The significance influencing factors of job satisfaction were professional qualification (p=0.04), total work experience in nursing (p=0.004), working ward/unit (p=0.014), des­ignation (p=0.007), number of patient assigned in general ward (p=<0.001) and leadership style in the ward (p=<0.001).
Conclusions: Considerable percentage of nurses are not satisfied with their job. Hence hospital management and professional associations need to ad­dress the identified factors to enhance the job satisfaction among nurses work­ing in a teaching hospital.

Published: September 2019

Background: Bacterial keratitis is a common sight threatening condition. Un­treated, it often leads to progressive tissue destruction with corneal perfora­tion or extension of infection to adjacent tissue. The aim of the study was to study the epidemiological characteristics of bacterial keratitis seen at Lumbini eye institute in western part of Nepal.
Methods: A retrospective study was done from 1st November 2017 to 30th October 2018 in which records of all culture-positive bacterial keratitis over a 1 year period. Data regarding age of patient, occupation, type of injury, coex­isting ocular disease was recorded. Clinical evaluation corneal scrapings were collected and subjected to culture and microscopy using standard protocols in all patients.
Results: Out of 800 corneal ulcer cases, 305(38.12%) were found to be of bac­terial aetiology. A total of 100(32.78%) bacterial pathogens were isolated of which predominant bacterial species Staphylococcus epidermidis 56(56%) fol­lowed by Staphylococcus aureus 21(21%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 12(12%), Streptococcus viridans 5(5%), Nocardia 4(4%) and Streptococcus pneumonia 2(2%) were isolated. Patients with age >45 years were 71(71%) and < 45 years were 29(29%). Among these, (55)55% of patients were non-agricultural work­ers and (45)45% were farmers; this difference was statistically not significant (p>0.0001). Co-existing ocular diseases predisposing to corneal ulceration were identified only in 19(19%), compared to other predisposing risk factors in 81(81%).
Conclusions: The epidemiological characteristic of bacterial keratitis varies geographically. This study describing the features of bacterial keratitis would greatly help the practicing ophthalmologist in the management of their pa­tients.

Published: September 2019

Background: Reflection and reflective practices are considered as one of the important components of medical education and imperative for self-directed lifelong learning. The objective of this study was to take reflections of interns what they learnt during posting in internal medicine and challenges they faced and what was gratifying moments.
Methods: MBBS course in Nepal is of five and half years including one-year mandatory rotational internship of which 2 months posting in internal medi­cine. The Internship of first MBBS batch at Chitwan Medical College started in May 2015. At the end of last round of posting of first group within department of internal medicine, written reflections of all interns were taken. The data were streamlined manually and presented.
Results: Interns updated and enhanced clinical, report interpretation, correlat­ing clinical condition with lab reports, decision making, management, docu­mentation, counselling and communication skills for a limited time posted in medical wards, OPD, ICU, CCU and hemodialysis unit. Some of the challenges were dealing patients with different attitude, to become responsible trustwor­thy doctor, responding to expectations of patient and family and to keep pa­tient informed. When patient believes and trusts on us and happily returns home were among the gratifying moments mentioned by interns. In fact, stu­dents were not taught about reflection during 4 and half years of study
Conclusions: Though interns reflected but approach was not systemic as they didn’t learn about reflection during course of study. Incorporate reflection as a teaching learning and assessment methods in curriculum, implement it and make reflective practice as core professional skill.
Karakter Hukum Bangunan Gedung Sebagai Jaminan Utang
Authors: Fauzi Ahmad 
Published: September 2019

<p>Hukum perdata mengenal jaminan yang bersifat hak kebendaan dan hak perorangan. Jaminan yang bersifat kebendaan merupakan jaminan hak mutlak atas suatu benda, yang mempunyai ciri hubungan langsung atas benda tertentu dari debitur, dapat dipertahankan terhadap siapapun, selalu mengikuti bendanya (<em>droit de suit</em>) dan dapat diperalihkan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji kerangka bangunan gedung yang dijadikan objek jaminan hutang oleh debitur, status bangunan gedung dalam pranata hukum positif yang berdimensi <em>privat</em> dan karakter pengikatan jaminannya serta lembaga jaminan apakah yang tepat untuk pembebanan bangunan gedung yang dijadikan sebagai jaminan utang. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu jenis penelitian yuridis normatif, dimana penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif analitis. Jaminan atas hak kebendaan sangat kental dengan penggolongan benda yang dikenal dalam sistem hukum perdata terutama penggolongan benda bergerak dan benda tidak bergerak. Karenanya juga dikenal adanya pembedaan jaminan atas benda bergerak dan jaminan atas benda tak bergerak. Atas dasar pembedaan benda tersebut menentukan jenis lembaga jaminan/ikatan kredit yang mana yang dapat dipasang untuk kredit yang akan diberikan. Jika benda jaminan itu berupa benda bergerak maka lembaga iamina yang dikenal dalam sistem hukum Indonesia adalah gadai dan fidusia, sedangkan jika benda jaminan itu berbentuk benda tetap tanah lembaga jaminan itu berbentuk hak tanggungan.</p>

Tulisan ini akan membahas konsep hukum Islam dan Undang-Undang Perlindungan Anak dalam memberi perlindungan hukum terhadap anak dari hasil perkawinan siri dan tanggung jawab orang tua terhadap anak yang ditelantarkan dari hasil perkawinan siri serta bentuk perlindungan hukum terhadaphak anak dari hasil perkawinan siri menurut hukum Islam dan undang-undang perlindungan anak. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian yuridis normatif yang bersumber dari data sekunder, yaitu dari bahan pustaka. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, hukum Islam ini sendiri mengajarkan tentang memberikan perlindungan terhadap anak, dimana pemerintah, masyarakat dan orang tua mempunyai peranan yang sangat penting dalam menetapkan kebijakan yang menguntungkan dan berpihak pada penegak Hak Asasi Manusia terhadap anak.<strong> </strong>Tanggung jawab orang tua diberi Allah SWT kedudukan yang paling terhormat terhadap anak-anaknya berupa tanggung jawab untuk memimpin, memberikan nafkah yang halal dan juga berkewajiban untuk mendidik. Maka setiap orang tua berkewajiban untuk menunaikan ataupun menjalankan kewajiban dan tanggung jawab atas anak tersebut.<strong> </strong>Bentuk perlindungan hukum diberikan terhadap anak yang diatur dalam undang-undang karena setiap anak yang dilahirkan kedunia telah mempunyai hak dan ditetapkan dalam hukum negara dan hukum Islam, hak anak juga diatur agar si anak mendapatkan pengakuan dan diberikan perlindungan dan untuk memudahkan ketentuan atas kedudukan si anak tersebut.</p>
Arc gradient coils design for unilateral magnetic resonance sensor based on Fourier series method
Authors: Wu Jiamin , He Yucheng , Shen Sheng , Guo Pan , Huang Xin , Xu Zheng 
Published: September 2019

Traditional nuclear magnetic instruments are not convenient for measurement in situ due to the closed magnet structure and heavy weight. It is crucial to improve tree planting by exactly detecting moisture parameters of living trees. To investigate this problem, an open and portable magnetic resonance sensor was proposed. In this work, we introduced unilateral magnetic resonance sensor which can achieve onsite nondestructive measurement of large-volume samples due to its open structure. To fit the shape of living trees, the region of interest was set in an arc region. A magnet structure was optimized by ANSYS software. Because the magnet has a constant natural gradient along radial direction, we need gradient fields in the other two directions (Z and Y). Z/Y gradient coils for unilateral magnetic resonance sensor are studied based on the Fourier series method. Current density in gradient coils is assumed as Fourier series composed of trigonometric functions. We introduced stream function to establish relationship between the current density and the winding structure, then constructed an optimization model by combining power dissipation with the deviation between calculated field and target field. The coils are manufactured using a flexible printed circuit board and measured by gauss meter. The measurement and simulation results are consistent. Measurement results of the gradient coils showed that the magnetic fields have good linearity which is helpful to realize 3D measurement in the upcoming work.

Published: September 2019

Background: Inflammatory myopathies are characterized by infiltration of inflammatory cells into muscle. Typically, immune-mediated disorders such as polymyositis, dermatomyositis and inclusion body myositis are diagnosed. Objective: A small family of dogs with early onset muscle weakness and inflammatory muscle biopsies were investigated for an underlying genetic cause. Methods: Following the histopathological diagnosis of inflammatory myopathy, mutational analysis including whole genome sequencing, functional transport studies of the mutated and wild-type proteins, and metabolomic analysis were performed. Results: Whole genome resequencing identified a pathological variant in the SLC25A12 gene, resulting in a leucine to proline substitution at amino acid 349 in the mitochondrial aspartate-glutamate transporter known as the neuron and muscle specific aspartate glutamate carrier 1 (AGC1). Functionally reconstituting recombinant wild-type and mutant AGC1 into liposomes demonstrated a dramatic decrease in AGC1 transport activity and inability to transfer reducing equivalents from the cytosol into mitochondria. Targeted, broad-spectrum metabolomic analysis from affected and control muscles demonstrated a proinflammatory milieu and strong support for oxidative stress. Conclusions: This study provides the first description of a metabolic mechanism in which ablated mitochondrial glutamate transport markedly reduced the import of reducing equivalents into mitochondria and produced a highly oxidizing and proinflammatory muscle environment and an inflammatory myopathy.
Long-Term Efficacy of Safinamide on Symptoms Severity and Quality of Life in Fluctuating Parkinson’s Disease Patients
Authors: Cattaneo Carlo , Jost Wolfgang H. , Bonizzoni Erminio 
Published: September 2019

Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by a wide range of motor and non-motor symptoms. Levodopa is still the most effective drug; however, its long-term use is associated with motor complications which may deteriorate patient’s quality of life. Safinamide is a unique treatment modulating both dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems. Previous results from two six months, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies demonstrated that safinamide has positive effects on both motor functions and quality of life in PD patients. Objective: To investigate the effects of safinamide 100 mg/day over two-year treatment on PD symptoms severity and quality of life, using data from the study 018. Methods: Data from 352 patients were analyzed to evaluate the effects of safinamide on OFF time and ON time (with no or non-troublesome dyskinesia) in the overall population and in subgroups of patients (receiving levodopa monotherapy or with other anti-Parkinson therapies), and the effects of safinamide on motor symptoms/clinical fluctuations (by means of UPDRS III and IV) and on health-related quality of life (using UPDRS II and PDQ-39 summary index score). Results: Safinamide, administered as add-on to standard therapy in fluctuating PD patients, significantly improved motor symptoms and clinical fluctuations in the overall population and in some subgroups of patients. Additionally, safinamide improved quality of life and activities of daily living, maintaining the efficacy in the long-term. Conclusions: The findings of these analyses suggest that safinamide may be considered an appropriate adjunct therapy in patient not sufficiently controlled. Further investigations are desirable to confirm these results in usual care setting.
