Published: November 2017

El tabaquismo es uno de los mayores problemas de salud pública enla actualidad. Los tratamientos multicomponentes, que incorporan tres fases de intervención (preparación, abandono y mantenimiento), son considerados como el tratamiento de elección para el abordaje esta adicción.No obstante, las altas tasas de recaídas tras las intervenciones hacen que sea necesario incorporar estrategias más eficaces dentro de este tipo de programas para prevenir la vuelta al consumo. Para muchos autores, el craving es la causa de la mayoría de las recaídas. Las técnicas de exposición a pistas o señales consisten en la exposición controlada y repetida a estímulos o entornos asociados al uso de la sustancia, con el objetivo de reducir las respuestas de craving en estas situaciones. La Realidad Virtual ha mostrado su eficacia en el abordaje de diferentes trastornos como método de exposición. Es este artículo, se propone el uso de técnicas de exposición a través de entornos virtuales para la mejora del tratamiento del tabaquismo. Abstract Smoking is currently one of the biggest problems of public health.Multicomponent treatments, which incorporate three intervention stages (preparation, quitting, and maintenance), are considered the treatment of choice for this problem. However, the high rates of relapse after the intervention make it necessary to incorporate more effective relapse prevention strategies within this kind of programs. For many authors, craving is the cause of most cases of resuming consumption. Cue Exposure Treatment, CET, consist of controlled and repeated exposure to stimuli associated with substance use, in order to reduce craving associated with these situations. On the other hand, recent studies have shown that exposure through virtual settings seems to be a more efficient strategy to present cues than exposure using other procedures. In this paper, cue exposure treatment through virtual reality enviroments are proposed inorder to improve smoking cessation treatments.

Published: November 2017

The purpose of this study was to know the attitudes and opinionson the consumption of alcohol, tobacco and drugs, in students of thesecondary education of the city of Bragança, aged between twelve and fifteen years. The Individuals who formed the sample attended the seventh, eighth and ninth years of schooling in a total of 62 pupils of both genders. The results showed that for consumption of alcohol, tobacco and drugs 6.25% of the respondents regularly consume alcohol, 12.5% smoke habitually and 8.33% consume drugs.Through the procedures carried out we conclude that the ‘no consumers’ are the ones who had present a bigger perception of the risk associated with the consumption of these substances. We can also verify that the experimentation of the substances is initiated each time more precociously.One of the possible causes of these results could be the lack of information about the consequences of consumption of these substances, or the vulnerability of the adolescents in yielding to the experimentation of the same ones.

Abstract
Java Field is located in the North West Java Basin that is one of the hydrocarbon prolific basins in Indonesia. The most of oil and gas in this area was produced from Jatibarang volcanic reservoir that consist of volcanic rock such as tuff, pyroclastic breccia, and lava andesite. In general, volcanic rocks have been ignored because a perceived lack of reservoir quality. Fractures were detected in the Jatibarang volcanic formation which enhanced porosity and permeability allowing hydrocarbon production. To exploit this type of reservoir to the fullest, comprehensive study must be done including determination of distribution and orientation of fault and fractures, possible migrations, and trap of hydrocarbon. Fractures identification and distribution modelling has been carried out in Java field with a combination of seismic interpretation by post-stack seismic geometrical attributes extraction, wireline log, imaging log and cores. A well log interpretation technique on the artificial neural network concept has been developed for evaluation of the volcanic rock reservoir and it was calibrated with imaging log and sidewall core data. Detailed petrophysical and petrographycal analysis have shown that the volcanic facies of Jatibarang formation is characterized by several types of tuff, andesite breccia, and andesite-basalt lava. The tuff facies is the best reservoir that has a multiporosity types with a range value of total porosity 6-19%, secondary porosity index value is 2-12% and average of fracture permeability value is ± 42,90 mD. The formation evaluation analysis of several productive well in Java field suggested that the distribution of productive well is mainly controlled by distribution of fractures beside by distribution of volcanic facies. The fractures in study area has three general orientation that is N-S, NNW-SSE and NE-SW trend strike of fractures. The all of fracture subsets were generated by polyphase tectonic event interpreted by N-S compressive stress during Mio-Pliocene and originally thought to be an extensional regime of the Cretaceous-Oligocene Meratus System that was rejuvenated during Pliocene. The N-S trend of conductive fractures is a potential open fractures that have ability to save and flow the hydrocarbon. Regarding the orientation of potential fractures, a horizontal well lateral from west to east is suggested for producing potential fractured volcanic reservoir in order to penetrate perpendicular to strike of productive fractures. This study can be analogue for all of unexplored volcanic reservoir, so this type of reservoir can be future target for hydrocarbon plays in Indonesia.

Abstract
North Kuwait is an active asset with significant challenges to build the production, while ongoing development using water flood in major reservoirs. One of such reservoirs, Upper Burgan (UB), has witnessed several stiff milestones to maximize sweep & recovery. Micro Reservoir Management (MRM), as described in this paper, has helped the team to identify sweet spots; have prudent artificial lift management; achieve Water flood optimization as well as encash opportunistic recompletions of non-producing wells of other stacked reservoirs in UB to double the production in last 3 years.
MRM aims to optimally utilize all resources available to maximize the benefit. Well Analysis & Review (WAR) sessions had been the key to the success thus capturing all production, reservoir monitoring and performance diagnostic requirements. North Kuwait, being endowed with stacked reservoirs, provides a window of opportunities to recomplete the wells which are not required for other reservoirs. The paradigm shift in the development strategy of the giant carbonate Mauddud to switch over to 100% horizontal wells resulted in many vertical wells to be phased out steadily. This concept was a blessing in disguise for UB for re-completions. Understanding of the aquifer support in peripheral segments helped to place new wells. The water flood expansion initiated in 2014 proved to be a boon to support the ongoing production build up actions. The pressure response due to water flood was timely diagnosed to implement ESP upsizes / conversions. Water flood flow regulators were installed to improve vertical sweep. Comprehensive segment review with proactive action list led to further optimization of the allowable for injectors to maximize the benefit. Injectors for the upcoming water injection projects have been pre drilled to have either short-term production or dump flood initiated. New technology applications aided to the efforts. Workflow processes have been developed for effective knowledge management within North Kuwait, paving the way forward for UB to support the Asset's strategy to meet 1 Million BOPD by 2020.
UB production has been doubled in last 3 years due to consistent efforts via MRM, augmented by tenfold increase in water injection. This approach made the team highly focused to reap the benefits and smartly adjust to the changing status of dynamic performance & overall portfolio balance of the asset. Standardized Workflow processes have been useful to engineers to be cohesive & consistent in MRM efforts.
The proposed paper is an excellent example of micro reservoir management to smartly adjust to the resources within the Asset and the dynamic performance of the reservoir.

Published: November 2017

AbstractAdenoviruses (AdV) are related to respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases in animals and human beings. Their wide genetic diversity in water bodies and their resistance to environmental conditions allow the use of AdV as a reliable marker for detection of fecal contamination. In this work, the diversity of AdV along Belo Stream – in the city of Caxias do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil – was evaluated. Samples were compared in both concentrated and unconcentrated forms. The identification of different AdV species was performed by amplifying a partial sequence of the DNA polymerase gene. AdV was detected in 24 out of 55 concentrated samples (43.6%) and the following species were identified: human adenovirus (HAdV) species C (4/55; 7.2%), D (6/55; 10.9%), E (2/55; 3.6%), and F (9/55; 16.3%). AdV related to other mammalian hosts, such as bovine adenovirus (1/55, 1.8%) and murine adenovirus (2/55, 3.6%), have also been identified; 23.6% (13/55) of the unconcentrated samples were positive, and identified as HAdV species C (6/55, 10.9%), D (1/55, 1.8%), and F (6/55, 10.9%). Results obtained evidenced the presence and the great diversity of AdV, mainly of human origin, circulating in Belo Stream. As expected, the concentration step performed helped to detect AdV in more samples.

Published: November 2017

Background:In order to minimize the possibility of unsuccessful dental extraction procedure due to dental anxiety, there are several approaches that can be used, including music intervention.Objective:The objective of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of classical and religious Islamic music on reducing dental anxiety.Materials and methods:Two hundred and twenty-five muslim participants (105 males, 120 females) were recruited for this study and randomly assigned to three groups: classical music group, religious Islamic music group, and the group with no music intervention, equally in numbers. Participant’s blood pressure (BP) and blood sample were taken prior to and after dental extraction to evaluate systolic and diastolic BP as well as nor-adrenaline plasma (NAP) level. All data were then analyzed by using t-test, ANOVA test, Mann-Whitney and Kruskawallis test.Results:There was a decrease in NAP level in the religious music group (0.110 ng/mL) and the control group (0.013 ng/mL) when initial NAP level was compared to post extraction NAP level, whilst the classical music group showed an increase of 0.053 ng/mL. There were significant differences found between the religious Islamic music group and the classical music group (p= 0.041) as well as the control group (p= 0.028) for the difference between pre and post NAP level, of which the NAP level of the religious Islamic group participants were lower.Conclusion:Religious Islamic music was proven to be effective in reducing dental anxiety in Muslim participants compared to classical music. Despite, further evaluation in a more heterogenous population with various religious and cultural background is needed.

Background:
Hepatitis B infection is an alarming public health problem. Almost two billion people of the population alive today, would have been infected at some time in their lives by hepatitis B. Hepatitis C virus is another life threatening condition, and about 425,000 deaths occur each year due to its complications.
The current study was carried out to provide care givers and health planners basic epidemiological data regarding the frequency and distribution of HBV and HCV based on age and sex during a time period of more than 5 years.

Result:
A total of 2109 different patients were found to be infected by HBV during the study period; 1641 (77.81%) were males and 468 (22.19%) were females with the age group of 20-39 years predominating (64%). In addition,16% of patients tested for HBeAg were found reactive.

Conclusion:
There were significant correlations observed between the levels of HBV DNA and ALT, AST and AFP. Regarding HCV, 70 males (54.9%) and 63 females (45.1%) were found to be infected, with preponderance of the age group 41 - 60 years and the genotype 4. Designing knowledge raising campaigns is appreciated as well as repetition of similar studies among larger populations in the following few years will help track a way to improvement.
