Computation of Surge-Pressure-Wave Propagation During Cementation Process
Authors: Assaad Wissam , Di Crescenzo Daniele , Murphy Darren , Boyd John 
Published: October 2019

SummaryIn this paper, we present a method of modeling surge pressures and wave propagation that can occur during well execution. The surge pressures have an effect on formations [i.e., formation fracture resulting in mud losses and nonproductive time (NPT)]. Knowing the amplitude of surge pressure in advance can lead to operation redesign to avoid losses. Swab- and surge-pressure waves can occur at numerous events during well execution. For example, during liner operations, pressure waves can occur at dart landing or plug shearing, liner-hanger setting, or clearing a plugged shoe-track component. It is possible for surge-pressure waves to create fractures in shale and sand layers (i.e., when surge-pressure-wave amplitude exceeds formation fracturing resistance).A transient-state physical model is built to compute pressure-wave propagation through drillstring, casing, and open hole to predict the amplitude of a surge-pressure wave and to warn when a fracture might occur in the formation, to avoid mud losses and NPT.In the model, continuity and energy partial-differential equations (PDEs) are built for a cylindrical fluid element contained in an elastic hollow cylinder. The method of characteristics is applied to convert the PDEs to ordinary-differential equations (ODEs). The ODEs are solved numerically to compute pressure distribution along well depth and in time. The model is implemented as a graphical-user-interface (GUI) tool to be used by drilling engineers at the design phase of a well to avoid losses. The GUI tool is targeted to address different scenarios that take place during the cementation process. To date, the transient-state physical model has been applied successfully in various applications, such as monodiameter technology, running casing, and perforating operations. Two cases are studied, one for a well in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) where mud losses have been reported, and the other for a well in Malaysia where no mud losses have occurred. Pressure-wave computations are performed with the GUI tool for the two cases. The results of both cases are presented in this paper and show that formation fracture can be predicted by the GUI tool and subsequent losses can be avoided.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Weaning is the period of time when infants introduce food different from breast milk in their diet, together with a gradual reduction of the intake of milk. It is estimated that 6% of under-five child mortality every year can be reduced through age appropriate infant feeding. Ethiopian demographic health survey 2016 declared that 21% of children consuming foods by age 4-5 months. Few Studies done in Ethiopia describe initiation time of weaning.
Objective: To assess initiation time of weaning and associated factors among mothers of children aged less than 2 years in Aksum Town 2017/18.
Methods: Community based cross-sectional study was conducted from December to May 2017/18 among 358 mothers of children. Simple random sampling technique was used to select from the five kebeles. Data was entered to Epi info version 7 and transported to SPSS version 22. Logistic regressions were used to identify the predictors of initiation time of weaning. Variables with P value <0.05 with 95% CI in the multivariable analysis were taken for declaring level of significance. The analyzed data were presented using texts, tables, graphs and charts.
Result: In this study prevalence of early initiation of weaning was 38% (CI=33.0, 43.0). Mothers of children aged less than 2 years having poor knowledge on initiation of weaning Adjusted Odds Ratio ((AOR) =2.08, 95% CI=1.12, 3.90), mothers who were not received formal advice from health professionals on initiation of weaning (AOR =1.93, 95% CI=1.17, 3.16), mothers who return to work during post postpartum period (AOR= 3.32, CI=1.99, 5.54) and had family size of four and above (AOR= 2.53 ,95% CI=1.46, 4.39) were significantly associated factors with early initiation time of weaning.
Conclusion: In this study prevalence of early initiation of weaning was high. Having poor knowledge, not received formal weaning advice, return to work and have family size of four and above were significantly associated factors with early initiation of weaning. Hence, Formal weaning advice should be given to mothers of children at health institutions during their prenatal care service regarding to initiation time of weaning.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Objective: Dental development is a useful method for age estimation. Although third molar eruption is commonly used to estimate age in Uganda, it is reported to be unreliable because of external influences. The more reliable radiographic techniques have inter-ethnic differences but data from sub-Saharan Africa are limited regarding estimating age in young adults. This study, therefore, aimed at determining the accuracy of Demirjian’s classification of the lower third molar, a common dental age estimation method, in estimating key ages in a Ugandan population using Ugandan references. Dental records of 1021 Ugandans aged 10-22 years were assigned to two groups; reference and test. The reference data was retrieved from a database of a previous bigger research project. Results: The overall sample population comprised of 514/1021 (50.3%) males. The mean age was 15.8 (3.6) years. No significant sex differences in dental age were established in the reference sample (520 records). Accuracy values (area under the curve) at the 12-, 14-, 16- and 18-year-cut-offs were between 0.83 and 0.90 using the test sample (501 records). The results suggest that Demirjian’s classification of the lower third molars is a useful method for age estimation in the young urban Ugandan population in the 10-22-year age-group.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Background: Long-acting reversible contraceptive methods are the most effective, safe, convenient and cost-effective compared to other modern contraceptive methods. The prevalence of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods utilization among married women in the study area was only 5% out of users of all methods and eligible group, which is comparatively low compared to the regional and national targets.
Objective: To identify determinants of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods utilization among married women of the reproductive age group in Ambo town, 2016
Methods: Community based unmatched case-control study was conducted in Ambo town among married women of reproductive age group. 140 users and 280 non-users were randomly included. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression was used to identify candidate variables and independent predictor variables respectively. Adjusted odds ratios together with their corresponding 95% CI were calculated to assess the strength of association and statistical significance.
Result: 139 users and 279 non-users were interviewed giving a response rate of 99%. Moderate level of knowledge on long-acting reversible contraceptive methods (AOR= 8.73, 95%CI: 3.08 - 24.77), Good level of knowledge (AOR=13.99, 95%CI: 4.93-39.71), spousal discussion on long-acting reversible contraceptive methods (AOR=2.88, 95%CI: 1.3-6.36), positive attitude toward long-acting reversible contraceptive methods (AOR=7.07, 95% CI: 3.77-13.24), Women from households in the poorest wealth quintile (AOR= 6.83, 95%CI: 2.68-17.38), Women from households in the medium wealth quintile (AOR=5.83, 95%CI: (2.23- 15.23) were positive determinants ,whereas intention to give birth in the future (AOR=0.09, 95%CI: 0.02- 0.36) and woman’s expectation of restriction to methods use (AOR=0.2, 95%CI: 0.08- 0.48) were negative determinants of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods utilization.
Conclusion: Good knowledge, moderate knowledge, positive attitude, wealth index and spousal discussion were positive determinants, while intention to give birth in the future and woman’s expectation of restriction to method use were negative determinants of long-acting reversible contraceptive methods utilization.
Stakeholders should emphasize behavioral change communication to increase knowledge on long-acting reversible contraceptive methods, strengthen inter-spousal discussion and bring a positive attitude toward long-acting reversible contraceptive methods.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Background: To investigate the two different methods including bone grafting with bundled multi-segment ribs and titanium mesh bone grafting through posterior approach in patients with thoracic and lumbar spinal tuberculosis. Methods: 38 patients with thoracic spinal tuberculosis in our hospital were divided into group A (19 cases of titanium mesh bone grafting) and group B (19 cases of bone grafting with bundled multi-segment ribs). The transverse costal process approach was firstly initiated, then the necrotic tissue of tuberculosis lesions was removed thoroughly. Finally, titanium mesh bone grafting and bone grafting with bundled multi-segment ribs was applied, respectively. Results: The data demonstrated that 12 to 24 months of follow-up revealed that the operation time of Titanium mesh bone grafting in group A was 21.2+2.3 min, and that of bundled rib bone grafting in group B was 7.2+2.4 min. Compared to group A, the time in group B was significantly shorter. The amount of bleeding in group A not distinct from that in group B. There was no significant difference in Cobb angle. The fusion time in the two groups was similar. There was no significant difference in Oswestry dysfunction index between the two groups at the last follow-up. Conclusions: Bone grafting with bundled multi-segment ribs could stable the function quickly after thoracic tuberculosis lesion clearance, indicating as an alternative and development prospects of bone graft strategy.

Abstract
Background Gait impairments in Parkinson’s disease (PD) limit independence and quality of life. While dance based interventions could improve gait, further studies are needed to determine if the benefits generalise to different terrains and when dual-tasking. The aim was to perform a feasibility study of the effects of a dance intervention, based on the Dance for PD®(DfPD®) program, on gait under different dual-tasks (verbal fluency, serial subtraction) and surfaces (even, uneven), and to determine if a larger scale follow-up RCT is warranted.Methods A dance group (DG; n = 17; age = 65.8 ± 11.7 years) and a control group (CG: n = 16; age = 67.0 ± 7.7 years) comprised of non-cognitively impaired (Addenbrooke’s score: DG = 93.2 ± 3.6, CG = 92.6 ± 4.3) independently locomoting people with PD (Hoehn & Yahr I-III) participated in the study. The DG undertook a one-hour DfPD®based class, twice weekly for 12 weeks. The CG had treatment as usual. Gait analysis was performed at baseline and post-intervention while walking on two surfaces (even, uneven) under three conditions (regular walking; dual-task: verbal-fluency, serial-subtraction). The data was analysed by means of a linear mixed model. ResultsThe DG improved significantly compared to the CG in gait velocity, cadence, step-length, and stride-length when even surface walking, with and without a dual-task. On the uneven surface the DG walked more cautiously during regular walking but had improved gait velocity, cadence and step-length when performing serial-subtractions. Conclusions DfPD®-based classes produced clinically significant improvement on spatiotemporal gait parameters under dual-task conditions and on uneven surfaces. This could arise from improved movement confidence and coordination; emotional expression; cognitive skills (planning, multitasking), and; utilisation of external movement cues. A large-scale RCT of this program is warranted.Trial registration A protocol for this study has been registered retrospectively at Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry on 12.11.2018.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Background To measure expression levels of interleukin-9 (IL-9) in renal tumors and to determine the clinical significance of those levels. Methods We enrolled 66 patients who underwent surgical resection of renal tumors between January and December 2018 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Their tumor tissues were paired with adjacent normal tissues and IL-9 expression levels were measured using immunohistochemistry. We determined the correlation of IL-9 expression with clinicopathological features and progression-free survival (PFS). Results Expression of IL-9 in renal tumors was significantly lower than in adjacent normal tissues (P <0.0001). There was a significant negative correlation between IL-9 expression levels and R.E.N.A.L. scores (P = 0.0277) as well as with differentiation (P = 0.0041). However, no significant correlation was found between IL-9 levels and clinicopathological features, including gender (P = 0.0716), age (P = 0.0.2566), BMI (P = 0.7941), tumor size (P = 0.4193) or TNM staging (P = 0.5402). PFS time in renal tumor patients with positive IL-9 expression was similar to that of patients with negative IL-9 expression. Conclusions IL-9 expression was higher in adjacent normal tissues than in renal tumors. Low expression of IL-9 was detected when R.E.N.A.L. score was high or cell differentiation was poor, suggesting that IL-9 may positively participate in renal tumor microenvironments.
