Published: September 2024

Introduction: Prevention of diabetes requires sustained lifestyle changes as well as identification of groups at higher risk. Objective: The aim of this research was to estimate the risk of diabetes in vulnerable subjects from a primary care center in northern Argentina, with no known glucose abnormalities, using the FINDRISC questionnaire, investigate the relationship between survey variables and the final score, and explore its association with metabolic risk factors and body composition. Methodology: This cross-sectional design included 498 patients without type 2 diabetes or known glycemic abnormalities. All subjects underwent a complete medical history and completed the FINDRISC questionnaire. Results: The predominant age group was 18-45 years old. Around 64% were physically active and 44% reported daily consumption of fruit and vegetables. Most of them had a BMI higher than 25 kg/m2. Regarding the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in the next 10 years, 24.3% were at low risk and the remaining fraction was distributed in slightly elevated, moderate, high and very high risk. All variables influenced the individuals' variance (p < 0.05). The hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that elevated FINDRISC score was strongly associated with: age > 65 years, fasting blood glucose, BMI ? 30 kg/m2 and antihypertensives use. CONCLUTION: We found a high percentage of obesity and overweight, as well as a high risk of cardiometabolic disease and of developing T2D. In addition, in the population studied, the variables that compose the FINDRISC did not influence the highest score in the same way.

Published: September 2024

It is important to note if the different colours of tarpaulin used for culture have effect on the growth performance and survival of Clarias gariepinus. The study was carried out in faculty of Agric cooperative farms located at Evboneka, Ovia North East local government area, Edo state. The research was designed as a factorial experiment made up of 3 colours of tarpaulin tanks (black, yellow and brown) x 18 weeks culture period in CRD. Each treatment replicated trice. Thus a total of nine culture units was used. The experimental unit was made up of 3 black, 3 brown and 3 yellow tarpaulin tanks each measuring 4x5m2. 2700 post fingerlings that is, 300 post fingerlings/tank were bought from a reputable hatchery and cultured for 18 weeks under semi-intensive system (10 fish/m2). The yellow tarpaulin tank had the highest mean weight (283.21g) followed by the black tarpaulin tank (247.964g) and brown tarpaulin tanks (249.42g) (P.<0.05)). The result also showed that fishes in yellow tanks had better FCR of 1.220) followed by brown tanks with 1.236 and black tarpaulin tanks with 1.251 as FCR. However, percentage survival was slightly higher in Black tanks (89.63), followed by the brown (89.30) and the lowest in the yellow tanks (88.86). This study showed that colour of culture facility may slightly affect fish growth and yield. Yellow tarpaulin tank appears to be brighter in colour and had relatively higher weight gain and is therefore recommended for C gariepinus culture over other tank colours (Black and brown).
Beyond MHD
Authors: Balsara Dinshaw Sarosh 
Published: September 2024

The MHD equations have served plasma physicists, space physicists and astrophysicists very well for the past several decades. Even so, one comes to the realization that the MHD equations are only an approximation that applies to systems where the collision rate between charged particles is fast enough to rapidly restore isotropy in the pressure tensor. For many systems involving collisionless plasmas, this assumption of the isotropy of the pressure tensor is invalid. In such situations, the Chew Goldberger and Low equations take over. They are based on a double adiabatic approximation and allow the pressure parallel to the field lines to differ from the pressure perpendicular to the field lines. While the CGL equations are well-formed, they have resisted numerical solution for a very long time. The reason is that if these equations are taken by themselves, they could potentially give rise to an unbounded increase in pressure anisotropy in certain circumstances. This unbounded increase in anisotropy can eventually result in a loss of hyperbolicity and a consequent code crash.Real world systems, like the solar wind, show that there are limits to the pressure anisotropy. Therefore, to make sense of the CGL equations, and their physical import, one has to understand the plasma physics effects, such as the mirror instability and firehose instability, which restore pressure isotropy at a microphysical level. Folding in these physical effects also results in numerical challenges that have to be overcome. In this talk we show how the CGL equations can be made numerically tractable by a deft combination of physical reasoning and advanced numerical methods. Preliminary applications will also be presented.

Published: September 2024

PURPOSE. To identify the characteristics of ocular hydrodynamic parameters in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).METHODS. The study examined a total of 200 patients (280 eyes), including 110 patients (220 eyes, main group) with POAG and type 2 DM, 30 patients (60 eyes, control group 1) with type 2 DM without glaucoma, and 60 patients (106 eyes, control group 2) with POAG without diabetes. Tonography was performed using the GlauTest–60 device in addition to standard methods of ophthalmological examination.RESULTS. In the main group, a reduction in true intraocular pressure (P0) was observed in advanced and early stages of glaucoma, with values of 24.6±0.45 mm Hg (80 eyes) and 21.6±0.4 mm Hg (136 eyes), respectively, compared to 21.8±0.6 mm Hg and 17.9±0.63 mm Hg (p<0.05) in control group 1. The ease of outflow coefficient (C) decreased to 0.11±0.08 mm³/min/mm Hg and 0.14±0.06 mm³/min/mm Hg in the main group, compared to control group 1, where it was -0.15±0.006 mm³/min/mm Hg and 0.27±0.036 mm³/min/mm Hg, respectively (p<0.05; p<0.01).In the main group, an increase in P0 and a decrease in C were more pronounced as glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) levels in the blood exceeded 7.5% and in cases of diabetic retinopathy at stages II and III.CONCLUSION. In patients with uncontrolled type 2 DM and increasing HbA1C levels, there is a significant increase in P0 and a decrease in C. This highlights the need for continuous monitoring of hydrodynamic parameters.
Peripapillary choriocapillaris blood flow in glaucoma. Part 1. Anatomy and pathophysiology of choriocapillaris blood flow and its visualization using OCT angiography
Authors: Kurysheva N. I. , Kim V. Yu. , Kim V. E. 
Published: September 2024

The pathogenic role of choriocapillaris blood flow in the progression of glaucomatous neurodegeneration has long been discussed in the literature. However, in vivo visualization of the deep microcirculatory structures in the peripapillary zone has remained challenging for a long time.Modern diagnostic methods, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), particularly spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT), swept-source OCT (SS-OCT), and OCT angiography, now enable the visualization of deep ocular vessels, including the choriocapillaris layer, opening new possibilities for diagnosing and monitoring the progression of glaucoma. This review provides information on the anatomy of the choroid, the choriocapillaris layer, its role in the pathogenesis of glaucoma, as well as the latest methods of studying these structures using optical coherence tomography.

Published: September 2024

The relationship between glaucoma and retinal vein occlusion (RVO) has been a subject of ongoing scientific interest. Several population-based studies have identified glaucoma as a significant risk factor for the development of RVO. However, data on the relationship between different types of primary glaucoma and RVO remain contradictory. Clarifying the nature of this relationship and identifying its possible pathogenic basis could improve treatment approaches for these conditions.This review summarizes information on the relationship between various types of primary glaucoma and RVO, establishes the role of primary open-angle glaucoma as a risk factor for RVO development, and discusses the impact of localized hemodynamic disturbances on the development and progression of primary open-angle glaucoma. The article also notes the different ways in which primary angle-closure glaucoma can affect the development of occlusion of central retinal vein and its branches, and summarizes the information on the influence of medications used to treat macular edema in RVO on intraocular pressure. Recommendations are provided on the selection of treatment methods for macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion, taking into account the presented data.

Media merupakan suatu hal yang tidak bisa dipisahkan dari manusia yang bermasyarakat, begitu juga dengan proses komunikasi khususnya komunikasi massa, hal ini merupakan satu sisi mata uang yang tidak dapat kita pilah dan pilih ketika ingin membahasnya. Komunikasi Massa dan Media dapat menjadikan sebuah budaya atau kebiasaan yang sudah ada pada masyarakat berubah atau bahkan dapat menciptakan sebuah budaya baru. Pengaruh yang akan nampak pada masyarakat tersebut bisa saja berdampak positif atau bahkan dampak negatif, Karena setiap pengaruh yang ditimbulkan oleh setiap gejala pastilah berbeda-beda. Masyarakat dibentuk oleh beberapa orang atau individu, kelompok, organisasi yang kemudian menjadi sebuah masyarakat yang sifatnya heterogen. Dalam tulisan ini penulis berusaha untuk menggambarkan pengaruh yang ditimbulkan oleh komunikasi massa dan media terhadap masyarakat dan budaya, melalui observasi dan pengamatan langsung yang dilakukan ditengah masyarakat. Hasil pengamatan dan study literasi yang dilakukan menghasilkan bahwa masyarakat akan cenderung melakukan perubahan norma sosial ketika komunikasi masa dan media komunikasi menjadi sebuah kebutuhan primer bagi seseorang yang tergabung dalam sebuah masyarakat, sehingga informasi yang disajikan oleh media dan melalui komunikasi massa akan berdampak pula pada prilaku dan kebiasaan yanga ada pada masyarakat, muaranya adalah berubahnya atau bergesernya adat pada satu kelompok masyarakat tersebut.

SDG Innovations & Impact: Relational Approach in Enabling Innovative Solutions and Impact Creation at the Grassroots
Authors: Jayaraman Paniirselvam 
Published: September 2024

SDG localisation is a primary goal of APPGM-SDG, and solution projects are the key component of this effort. Formed in 2019, mirroring the UK Parliament setup, the APPGM-SDG Malaysia has been the forefront organisation in localising SDGs in parliamentary constituencies. Despite Covid-19 and other practical challenges. The grounded research approach undertaken by APPGM-SDG paved the way for innovative grassroots solutions designed and undertaken by local organisations targeting vulnerable communities in their own localities. From 2020 to November 2023, APPGM-SDG has undertaken targeted solution projects at an unprecedented level, with 664 SDGs solution projects in 4 years and 364 solution providers around the country. These innovative solutions are developed through a unique relational approach between multiple stakeholders and engagements in multiple processes in the making. This approach has been the key framework in designing solution projects that have proven to have a much greater impact towards the community as a whole and personally on the livelihoods of the participants involved. This is also evident in our recent publication, SDG Solution Projects: Best Practices Impacting the Grassroots, which carries 35 best practices for solution projects and innovative stories from the ground that can be examples of model solutions for vulnerable communities. This paper will discuss the relational approach that brings out SDG innovations in finding solutions between the partners involved, the empowerment and participatory models in place, and the processes involved in curating suitable solutions. The lessons learnt from 2020 until now in crafting fine-tuned solutions will also be included in this paper, together with real-life case studies of SDG innovative solutions that have a greater relational approach between stakeholders.

Published: September 2024

A utilização da Inteligência Artificial (IA) no mundo das artes, compondo músicas e gerando imagens que cada vez mais impressionam pelo resultado estético e pelo elevado grau de autonomia de criação tem suscitado um intenso debate social, acadêmico e jurídico. Razão pela qual, em 2020, a Organização Mundial da Propriedade Intelectual - OMPI levantou a seguinte questão: “Deveria ser considerada a atribuição de personalidade jurídica a uma aplicação de IA quando esta cria obras originais de forma autônoma, para que os direitos de autor sejam conferidos à personalidade?” O presente estudo, por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental e considerando-se as características e finalidades do direito autoral, concluiu que eventual reconhecimento da personalidade jurídica eletrônica para sistemas de IA não seria o suficiente para se relativizar o paradigma da intelectualidade humana como condição de proteção. Conclui-se, ainda, não ser plausível, razoável e nem justificável, para o direito autoral, o reconhecimento da personalidade jurídica eletrônica e a insistência em se querer comparar ou equiparar a capacidade criativa da IA e a capacidade criativa humana para, assim, submetê-las ao mesmo sistema normativo de tutela, e que a melhor solução para esta e outras questões suscitadas pela própria OMPI seria a busca por um sistema sui generis de tutela para as obras originadas por sistema de IA.

A Pragmatic Study of Digital Communication among Students at Federal University. Wukari, Nigeria
Authors: Frederick Victor Elendu , Ogbazi Vivian Ijeoma 
Published: September 2024

The new media, also known as social media, among other benefits, promotes communication among students as well as language development in linguistically diverse contexts in Nigeria. On the university campus, students who have been experiencing difficulties in contributing to interactions in classrooms and other formal settings on the campus, appear to find voice in these electronically mediated spaces. Communication in digital spaces accommodates linguistic and paralinguistic cues. Thus, it is characterized by innovations, which include an admixture of languages and varieties of Nigerian English, graphics, memes, and emojis, among others. This study examines some posts by students as well as comments on the posts on a Federal University Wukari students’ Facebook forum. Information from the analysis of data reflects the linguistic practices of the students, the kind of information and knowledge they share as well as their communicative procedure. Findings from the study also reflect on the sociolinguistics and implications of social media communications on the University community as well as in the society in general.
