Background and purpose: Dislocations continue to be a serious complication after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Our primary aim was to report the “true” incidence of dislocations in Denmark and secondarily to validate a previously developed algorithm designed to identify THA dislocations in the updated version of the Danish National Patient Register (DNPR), based on data from the Danish Hip Arthroplasty Register (DHR).Methods: We included 5,415 primary THAs from the DHR performed from July 1 to December 31, 2019. Version 3 of the DNPR was launched in February 2019, and a combination of data from the DNPR and a comprehensive national review of 1,762 hospital contacts enabled us to identify every dislocation occurring during the 1st year after THA to determine the “true” 1-year incidence of dislocation. The results were presented as proportions with 95% confidence intervals (CI), and validation was performed by calculating sensitivity and predictive values.Results: The “true” 1-year incidence of dislocation was 2.8% (CI 2.4–3.3). Of these, 37% suffered recurrent dislocations during the follow-up period. Between-hospital variation ranged from 0.0% to 9.6%. The algorithm demonstrated a sensitivity close to 95%, while maintaining a positive predictive value of above 94%.Conclusion: The “true” 1-year incidence of dislocation of 2.8% is comparable to earlier findings, and large variation among hospitals continues to be evident. We have proven the algorithm to be valid in the latest DNPR (version 3), enabling it to be employed as a new quality indicator in future annual DHR reports.

Consumer affinity as a key factor to mitigate reluctance to buy foreign products: The moderating role of organic and induced image to counteract negative communication campaigns and image crises
Authors: Serrano-Arcos M. Mar , Sanchez Fernández Raquel , Pérez-Mesa Juan Carlos 
Published: July 2024

Research background: Anti-consumption practices, in particular consumers’ reluctance to buy (RTB) foreign products, are increasingly common in today’s globalised and interconnected markets. This phenomenon is accentuated by the impact of negative consumer dispositions (e.g., animosity or ethnocentrism), which contribute to an unfavourable perception of foreign products and, consequently, increase RTB. However, knowledge about possible factors that may mitigate this RTB foreign products is limited, and even less is known about the influence that positive dispositions (e.g., affinity) may have on consumer perceptions and consumption/non-consumption decisions. Moreover, consumers are inundated with information from various sources, which can significantly influence their perceptions and image of a product-country, especially in a context associated with negative communication campaigns and image crises.
Purpose of the article: This research delves into the study of consumer affinity towards a foreign country, understood as an emotional feeling or positive disposition of a consumer that may mitigate their RTB foreign products, which often results from negative communication campaigns and a country-product image crisis. In addition, its influence on perceived risk and value, and the impact of these on RTB, is investigated. The moderating effect of the organic and induced image formed by the consumer on the risk-value relationship is also analysed, determining whether the induced image undermines this relationship.
Methods: The empirical study focuses on the Spanish agri-food sector, which has been the subject of negative communication campaigns and image crises in foreign markets. The conceptual model was tested in a sample of German consumers, as Germany is the primary destination country for these products and has also been the origin of several image crises in this sector. PLS-SEM was used to validate the proposed hypotheses.
Findings & value added: This research underlines the importance of fostering feelings of affinity towards a country and its products as a means to counteract negative campaigns, increase perceived value and mitigate RTB in foreign destination markets. Companies and public institutions, which influence the formation of the induced image in consumers, can contribute to improving consumers’ perception of a product-country. By shedding light on these dynamics, this study offers valuable insights for companies trying to cope with image crises fuelled by negative communication campaigns, which are increasingly prevalent in the competitive international landscape.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
We identified the associated factors and compared the survival times of feline hyperthyroidism (FHT) between thyroidectomy and methimazole alone.

METHODS
The medical records of 41 cats diagnosed with new-onset hyperthyroidism were retrospectively reviewed. The cats were categorized into the thyroidectomy (n = 15) and methimazole (26) treatment groups. Survival analyses using the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards models were conducted to compare the time to the selected outcomes.

RESULTS
Univariate analysis revealed that survival time was significantly longer with thyroidectomy than with methimazole (P < .001). Multivariate analyses revealed thyroidectomy as an independent prognostic factor for good outcomes (hazard ratio, 0.209; 95% CI, 0.073 to 0.601; P = .004). The recurrence rate was significantly lower in cats that underwent thyroidectomy than in those that received methimazole alone (P = .011).

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Compared with methimazole alone, thyroidectomy was associated with a longer survival time in FHT and can be considered an irreversible treatment modality in settings where radioisotopes are not available.

Authors: Elhadi Abdelmalek , Amroune Salah , Houari Amin , Kouder Madani 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Our study involved a combination of practical experiments and numerical simulations using the Abaqus computational software. The main aim was to enhance our understanding of the mechanical characteristics exhibited by 6082 aluminium alloy when exposed to tensile forces. To achieve this, we produced 18 samples of standardized dimensions utilizing a parallel lathe. These samples then underwent a thermal treatment comprising a solution treatment, water quenching and various tempering procedures at different temperatures (280°C, 240°C, 200°C, 160°C and 120°C), resulting in a range of hardness levels. To obtain the experimental results, we conducted tensile tests on a specialized machine, which were subsequently supplemented with numerical analyses. By adopting this approach, we gained valuable insights into the behaviour of aluminium alloy 6082, specifically regarding its mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength, elongation and necking coefficient. This newfound knowledge holds potential significance in the realm of designing and optimizing aluminium structures that operate within high-temperature environments.
Modelling of an Influence of Liquid Velocity Above the Needle on the Bubble Departures Process
Authors: Dzienis Paweł 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
In the present paper, the influence of liquid flow above the needle on a periodic or chaotic nature of the bubble departures process was numerically investigated. During the numerical simulations bubbles departing from the needle was considered. The perturbations of liquid flow were simulated based on the results of experimental investigations described in the paper [1]. The numerical model contains a bubble growth process and a liquid penetration into a needle process. In order to identify the influence of liquid flow above the needle on a periodic or chaotic nature of bubble departures process, the methods data analysis: wavelet decomposition and FFT were used. It can be inferred that the bubble departure process can be regulated by altering the hydrodynamic conditions above the needle, as variations in the liquid velocity in this area affect the gas supply system’s conditions. Moreover, the results of numerical investigations were compared with the results of experimental investigation which are described in the paper [2]. It can be considered that, described in this paper, the numerical model can be used to study the interaction between the bubbles and the needle system for supplying gas during the bubble departures from two needles, because the interaction between the bubbles is related to disturbances in the liquid flow above the needle.
Profile, health risk assessment and source apportionment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in terrestrial snails and some aquatic species consumed in parts of Ogbia LGA, Bayelsa, Nigeria
Authors: Chokor Augustine Avwerosuo , Ediagbonya Thompson Faraday 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The determination of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in giant land snails (Achatina achatina) and three aquatic species [mudfish (Clarias anguillaris), mud crab (Scylla serrata), and prawn (Palaemon maculatus)] in Ogbia LGA, their origin and their health implications on consumers were the focus of this work. PAHs analysis was done with Gas Chromatography couple to a Mass Spectrometer Detector (GC-MS), after extractions with 1:1 mixture of hexane and dichloromethane and clean-up with silica gel column. Total PAHs (∑16PAHs) in µg/kg in edible tissues averaged: 3342.26±845.70 for snails, 393.14±452.50 for fishes, 382.22±235.72 for crabs, and 344.81±91.93 for prawns respectively. The hazard indices showed some potential for non-carcinogenic harms: very high for snails, moderately high for fishes and crabs, and slightly high for the prawns. The calculated benzo(a)pyrene equivalent concentrations (PEC) for species were higher than the estimated screening value (SV) of 3.95 µg/kg, an indications of possible carcinogenic effects on consumers of these foods. However, the excess cancer risk (ECR) did not indicate threat of additional cancer risk as most of the calculated values (except in some snails’ samples with values < 10-4) were less than the acceptable standard of 1.0x10-6 established by the USEPA. Source diagnostic ratios revealed that source of PAHs were largely pyrolytic. The presence of these PAHs in these edible species, and possible further accumulations and its attendant impacts on human’s health calls for periodic monitoring.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
This work is geared towards extraction, isolation and characterization of phytocompounds from the ethyl acetate extract of Acanthus montanus root. The ethyl acetate extract was obtained through sequential maceration using a nonpolar solvent first before introducing ethyl acetate. The extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) for fractionation and phytocompounds were purified through column chromatography. Characterization was done employing infrared spectroscopy (IR) and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy (NMR). The phytocompounds were isolated and characterized as 6,7-dihydroxy-4-methoxycoumarin and 2ʹ-acetoxy-4ʹ,5-dihydroxy-6ʹ-methoxy-3-(2ʹʹ-hydroxy-6ʹʹ-oxanyl)-8-(2ʹʹʹ-hydroxy-4ʹʹʹ-oxanyl)flavanone named Acanthusin G with percentage yield of 0.7% and 1.16% respectively. 6,7-dihydroxy-4-methoxycoumarin and Acanthusin G indicated good antimicrobial activities at 200 µg/ml with zone of inhibition range of 18 - 36 mm against fifteen pathogens using agar well diffusion method.

Authors: Assumma Vanessa , De Angelis Elena 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
In the framework of the theory of Landscape Ecology, a review of Lotka-Volterrra type models is proposed. Such models can be considered useful tools in order to represent and evaluate the dynamical behavior and the ecological stability of an environmental system which, as known, is subjected during time to several transformations. At this purpose, after such a review and presentation of different models, an application to an important wine region in France is performed using a model recently introduced in literature.
