PAEDIATRIC SEPSIS STRATEGIES FOR EARLY DETECTION AND COLLABORATIVE CARE
Authors: DIN N , AZMATULLAH M , KHAN M , ALI H 
Published: October 2024

Paediatric sepsis remains a significant cause of mortality and morbidity globally, with a disproportionately high burden in low- and middle-income countries like Pakistan. The high rates of sepsis-related deaths in Pakistan are attributed to delayed diagnosis, inadequate healthcare infrastructure, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and limited access to appropriate medical care. This review focuses on strategies for early detection and collaborative care approaches in the management of paediatric sepsis, particularly in the context of Pakistan’s healthcare system. Methods: This review synthesizes findings from recent studies (2014-2024) addressing the pathophysiology, risk factors, early detection strategies, and treatment modalities for paediatric sepsis, with an emphasis on the unique challenges faced in Pakistan. It discusses the role of biomarkers, clinical scoring systems, and multidisciplinary care models in improving outcomes for children with sepsis. The review also examines the impact of antimicrobial resistance on sepsis treatment and highlights technological advancements such as artificial intelligence and telemedicine that can aid in early diagnosis. Results: Early detection of paediatric sepsis in Pakistan is hindered by a lack of awareness, inadequate diagnostic tools, and delays in seeking medical care, particularly in rural areas. Biomarkers such as procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) have shown promise in diagnosing sepsis, but their use is limited due to resource constraints. Collaborative care models, incorporating multidisciplinary teams and family-centred care, have improved outcomes in larger urban hospitals but remain underutilized in rural regions. Antimicrobial resistance presents a significant challenge, necessitating more stringent antibiotic stewardship programs. Conclusion: To reduce the burden of paediatric sepsis in Pakistan, efforts must focus on enhancing early detection through the implementation of standardized sepsis protocols, increasing access to diagnostic tools, and promoting collaborative care approaches. Addressing antimicrobial resistance through improved antibiotic stewardship is also critical. The integration of technological solutions, such as AI-based diagnostic tools and telemedicine, offers the potential for improving sepsis outcomes in resource-limited settings.

THE DYNAMIC SPACE OF THE BOOK
Authors: П.С. Канайкин 
Published: October 2024

Книга как объект проектирования обладает собственными ресурсами. Они не всегда очевидны и скрыты в самой ее форме, которая при всей простоте требует все же дополнительного изучения. Особый интерес вызывают динамические ресурсы книги: именно они формируют образ при поиске оригинальных пространственных решений – от внешнего восприятия трехмерного блока через содержательный массив внутреннего пространства со множеством компонентов до процесса листания. При этом поиск органической связи внутреннего пространства визуальных компонентов книги с дизайн-пространством книжного блока вызывает наибольшие трудности при создании образной конструкции.
A book as an object of design has its own resources. They are not always obvious and are hidden in its very form, which, despite its simplicity, still requires additional study. Of particular interest are the dynamic resources of the book: they form the image when searching for original spatial solutions – from the external perception of a three-dimensional block through the content array of the internal space with many components to the process of leafing through. At the same time, the search for an organic connection between the internal space of the visual components of the book and the design space of the book block causes the greatest difficulties in creating its figurative design.

Published: October 2024

В совокупности с элементами природного, архитектурного и предметно-пространственного окружения объекты графического дизайна формируют эстетический облик города, во многом определяя характер восприятия городской среды в глазах человека. В культурологическом аспекте шрифт как графический артефакт является одним из самых эффективных инструментов организации целостного образа города, подчёркивает аутентичность и непрерывность его истории, укрепляет чувство принадлежности к городскому сообществу.
Together with elements of natural, architectural and object-spatial environment, graphic design objects form the aesthetic image of the city, largely determining the nature of perception of the urban environment in the eyes of man. In the cultural aspect, the font as a graphic artefact is one of the most effective tools for organising the holistic image of the city, emphasising the authenticity and continuity of its history, as well as strengthening the sense of belonging to the urban community.

As propriedades físico-químicas e microbiológicas adequadas da água as torna uma substância crucial à vida. Em animais e plantas, a água está presente em fluidos orgânicos auxiliando em grande parte das atividades fisiológicas. Esta pesquisa objetivou realizar monitoramento físico-químico e microbiológico da água do Igarapé da Penal em Porto Velho, Rondônia, Brasil. Realizaram-se avaliações do corpo d’água em dois pontos de coletas observando os parâmetros de pH, Eh mV, CE µS/cm, TDS/ppm e Salinidade/Salt/ ppt e avaliação microbiológica quali-quantitativa para coliformes totais e de Escherichia coli. Nas análises, utilizaram-se o pHmetro multiparâmetro de bancada e os Kits microbiológicos COLItest® LKP e Compact Dry EC CAP-LAB. As interpretações dos resultados seguiram, majoritariamente, as Resoluções do Conama nº 357/2005 e n° 274/2000. Os resultados revelaram valores médios para: pH de 6,57; TDS/ppm de 109,65 mg/L e Salt/ppt em 0,11%, estando de acordo com a legislação. Distintivamente, os parâmetros de Potencial de redox - Eh: mV 3,3 e de Condutividade elétrica - CE: 167,76 µS/cm divergiram dos indicados pela Conama. As avaliações microbiológicas, das amostras, indicaram a presença de coliformes totais com média de 219.351 UFC/100 mL e de E. coli em 192,716 UFC/100 mL. Os dados indicam alterações no perfil físico-químico e microbiológico apontando à contaminação da água do Igarapé da Penal.

Den litterære sakprosaen – en begynnende og utforskende avgrensing av et fagfelt
Authors: Berge Kjell Lars , Tønnesson Johan L. , Strand Offerdal Truls , Kaasa Janicke 
Published: October 2024

I denne artikkelen presenteres det forfatterne har valgt å kalle en utforskende oversikt over forskningslitteratur om de fenomenene som Johan L. Tønnesson i Hva er sakprosa (2008/2012) omtaler som «litterær sakprosa». Arbeidet med forskningsoversikten har bekreftet at den litterære sakprosaen i oppsiktsvekkende liten grad er studert vitenskapelig. En viktig årsak kan være at sakprosaen betraktet som «litteratur» ikke later til å ha vært prioritert i noen etablerte forskningsmiljøer, slik som litteraturvitenskap eller medievitenskap. En manglende konsensus om hva denne typen tekster skal kalles, kan forklares med denne svake institusjonelle forankringen for sakprosaforskningen. På bakgrunn av denne situasjonen har forfatterne kalt denne forskningsoversikten «begynnende» og «utforskende». «Begynnende» fordi dette arbeidet har vist at det finnes svært få tilgjengelige forskningsoversikter som prioriterer «litterær sakprosa». «Utforskende» fordi forfatterne legger til grunn at oversikten skal etablere en slags state of the art for forskningen på litterær sakprosa. Forfatterne tar utgangspunkt i norsk og delvis nordisk forskning, men inkluderer også to relativt nylig (i 2024) publiserte internasjonale forskningsoversikter med forankring i forskningsmiljøer i henholdsvis Europa og USA.

Published: October 2024

This research objective is to describe the process and model of harmonious communication among religious adherents and the supporting and inhibiting factors for the occurrence of harmonious communication in Sorong, West Papua. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive research to understand the process and model of communication between religious adherents. The research subject of interfaith leaders in Sorong amounted to 7 informant. The data collection method was done by interview and documentation techniques. Furthermore, the research result is a description of the process of harmonious communication among religious adherents carried out through the stages of structuring harmony and productivity. While, the stages of structuring harmony are carried out through the process of instilling mutual understanding, tolerance, and mutual respect among the adherents of the religion. The steps have resulted in productivity, namely; the realization of harmony among religious communities, and rised to a harmonious communication model that was built based on peace, tolerance, and cooperation. Supporting factors for harmonious communication are the role of the "Forum on Religious Harmony" (FKUB) and the role of religion and culture. The factor of inhibiting is the existence of socio-economic inequality and ineffective communication between local leaders and communities and national leaders.
Impact of Vermicompost Formulations on Black Carrot Yield, Quality, and Soil Fertility
Authors: Rani Neeraj , Kaur Gursimran , Thakur Manisha 
Published: October 2024

Excessive use of chemical fertilizers and declining soil fertility pose significant challenges to sustainable agriculture, often leading to degraded soil health and reduced crop quality. This experiment aimed to evaluate alternative fertilization strategies to optimize black carrot yield and quality while improving soil fertility. Organic residues, including paddy straw and deciduous tree leaves, were combined with cow dung and biogas slurry in a 1:1 ratio to prepare vermicompost treatments, which were tested along with integrated nutrient management and chemical fertilizer treatments. Over two years, the data revealed that integrated nutrient management, involving 50% recommended dose of chemical fertilizers and 50% deciduous tree leaves vermicompost, resulted in the highest yield and yield attributes of black carrot, while the control treatment produced the lowest productivity. The integrated nutrient management also showed greater improvements in soil properties, including pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic carbon (OC), cation exchange capacity (CEC), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and micronutrients, especially in the later years of the study. This is likely due to the initially low organic carbon and nutrient content of the experimental soil, with organic amendments typically taking three to four years to elicit a positive response. Overall, the study demonstrates that integrated nutrient management is more effective in enhancing both carrot yield and soil fertility, providing a sustainable approach to improving crop production and long-term soil health.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Outreach Measures at a Student-Run Free Clinic
Authors: Mirajkar Shalmali , Byrd Jay J , Zalman Currey M , Pipinos Margarita I , Evans Emily , Geske Jenenne , Menning Melanie S 
Published: October 2024

Background: Student-run, free clinics (SRFCs) seek innovative and cost-effective outreach strategies to recruit new patients and raise awareness of their services. The current literature presents several approaches to increase community engagement, but the formal evaluation of these outreach efforts is scarce. The present study aims to fill this gap by measuring the effectiveness of outreach efforts on patient visits, which was implemented over the past year at an SRFC in Omaha, Nebraska.
Methods: A retrospective review of clinic traffic and outreach efforts deployed at our SRFC for 13 months. Six formal outreach methods were identified and included in the analysis. Patient recruitment was measured by calculating the difference in total patient volume 30 days before and after the implementation of an outreach effort. An effort’s efficacy was evaluated by calculating the financial expenses and time spent per patient recruited for the corresponding outreach methodology.
Results: Two-thirds of the efforts resulted in increased patient volume, with the additional third being associated with decreased traffic. The most successful outreach effort, which resulted in an average increase of 9 patients, only required the investment of 0.67 hours per patient, with no financial cost. The least successful effort required 2 hours and cost $11 per patient.
Conclusions: This study provides an approach to evaluate the efficacy of outreach efforts to increase patient recruitment at our SRFC. The financial expenditure, volunteer time, and corresponding efficacy of previous efforts should be considered prior to their re-utilization. Additionally, these findings support future prospective tracking of patient recruitment and retention data to optimize the quality and quantity of patient care. By addressing these challenges, clinics can better serve their target population and fulfill their mission of providing quality medical care to underserved communities.
Mayor Inclusión Social y Seguridad Ciudadana en Bolivia
Authors: Ribera Cuellar Julio 
Published: October 2024

En los últimos años, Bolivia logro un conjunto de transformaciones sociales y económicas importantes: mayores niveles de crecimiento económico de Sudamérica, reducción de sus índices de pobreza, cambios demográficos significativos. Por ejemplo, el 67% de la población ahora vive en áreas urbanas y más de la mitad (57%) reside en las 9 ciudades capitales y El Alto, evidenciando un proceso migratorio campo–ciudad irreversible. Producto de este crecimiento, se amplió la clase media urbana con mayores ingresos, provocando a su vez la emergencia de nuevas demandas y necesidades por parte de la población. (PNUD. Informe Regional sobre Desarrollo Humano para America Latina y el Caribe., 2016) Sin embargo, estos cambios sociales y económicos no se han traducido en su totalidad en mejores condiciones de bienestar de la ciudadanía. Por un lado, la calidad del empleo no ha evidenciado mejoras, la inserción laboral de los jóvenes continúa precaria y la participación de las mujeres en el mercado de trabajo permanece por debajo de la de los hombres. Por otro, la calidad de los servicios de salud, vivienda y educación siguen siendo un reto para el país hombres (PNUD (Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Desarrollo), 2015). Asimismo, este crecimiento vino junto a importantes retos en materia de seguridad ciudadana. Evidencia de esto es que la inseguridad y la delincuencia se ubican entre las principales preocupaciones de los ciudadanos bolivianos en los últimos años. Esto se explica, por un lado, debido al crecimiento urbano en el país que no ha sido del todo incluyente, pues, si bien se amplió la clase media, todavía existe un cúmulo de personas que no ha podido integrarse completamente a este grupo. En los hechos, esta clase media “vulnerable” tiende a experimentar mayores expectativas en su calidad de vida, pero sin oportunidades para concretarlas A su vez, las transformaciones sociodemográficas como resultado del crecimiento
