Study's Excerpt/Novelty

This study investigates the prevalence of Cryptosporidium among children attending Maryam Abacha Women and Children Hospital, Sokoto, using Formol ether concentration and Modified Ziehl Neelsen staining methods.
It identifies a high prevalence of (71.1%) and shows a strong correlation between Cryptosporidium infection, diarrhea, and source of drinking water.
These findings underscore the necessity for routine diagnostic testing of Cryptosporidium among children for improved detection, treatment, and overall patient outcomes in the region.

Full Abstract
Cryptosporidium infection is ranked as the second most common cause of diarrheal disease and fatalities among children in developing nations. Nonetheless, due to the fact that many healthcare providers do not consistently request Cryptosporidium diagnostic tests, the prevalence of cryptosporidiosis is probably underestimated. The current study is therefore aimed at investigating the prevalence of cryptosporidiosis among children attending Maryam Abacha Women and Children Hospital (MAWCH), Sokoto. During the timeframe of April to June 2021, stool samples were collected from 114 diarrheic and non-diarrheic children and analyzed using Formol ether concentration and Modified Ziehl Neelsen staining methods. Out of 114 samples analyzed, 81(71.1%) were positive for Cryptosporidium oocysts. A higher prevalence of Cryptosporidiosis was observed in males 45(39.5%) compared to females 36(31.6%) participants and higher 41(36.0%) in younger children aged 0-1 years than the older children. Similarly, a greater prevalence of Cryptosporidiosis was observed in diarrheic children (42.1%) than in non-diarrheic children (28.9%). A statistically significant relationship was observed between the occurrence of Cryptosporidium and diarrhea (P = 0.002) and the source of drinking water (P = 0.001). Routine diagnosis of Cryptosporidiosis among children is vital and can enhance effective diagnosis, treatment, and consequently, improvement in the patients' well-being.

The study uses Health Risk Index (HRI) and Target Hazard Quotient (THQ) calculations to show the potential health hazards, particularly for children, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to mitigate these risks in affected communities.

Full Abstract
Heavy metal contamination from Metal workshop activities poses health risks by accumulating in crops and entering the food chain. This study quantified heavy metal concentrations and health risks in commonly consumed vegetables irrigated near a metal workshop in Kofar Marusa, Katsina Metropolis. Samples from the cultivation areas of Cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes, spinach, and cress were analyzed. After acid digestion, the amounts of heavy metals were measured by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. Copper (0.123 mg/kg), manganese (0.431 mg/kg), and nickel (0.539 mg/kg) were greatest in spinach. Manganese (0.374 mg/kg) and cobalt (1.474 mg/kg) levels were higher in cress. Lettuce had the highest iron concentration (6.028 mg/kg) and the lowest metal levels. Lead (11.68 mg/kg) and chromium (2.276 mg/kg) were both high in Cabbage, and nickel (0.526 mg/kg) and lead (4.24 mg/kg) were noteworthy in tomatoes. Among the Health Risk Index (HRI) calculated, cress reached 17.967 for adults. Children's exposure to heavy metals for Cobalt (Co) and Lead (Pb) through cabbage consumption showed the Target Hazard Quotient (THQ) values for Co (0.089) and Pb (0.036), significantly higher than those for adults. The Cumulative Lifetime Cancer Risks showed that Cress posed the highest risk for both adults and children, followed by spinach. The study revealed significant variations in heavy metal concentrations taken up among different types of vegetables, portraying potential health risks associated with its consumption. It also suggested that the consumption of vegetables cultivated through irrigation near the metal artisanal site may contribute to the bioaccumulation of heavy metals burden among the population. The study brought to light the wide range of heavy metal uptake in vegetables as well as the possible health hazards associated with eating produce grown close to the metal workshop.

Purpose: We aimed to analyze the risk of hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) among first-generation and second-generation immigrants in Sweden using Swedish-born individuals and Swedish-born individuals with Swedish-born parents as referents, respectively.
Methods: All individuals aged 18 years of age and older, n = 6,180,500 in the first-generation study, and n = 4,589,930 in the second-generation study were included in the analyses. HH was defined as at least one registered diagnosis International Classification of Diseases 10th edition (E83.1) in the National Patient Register between January 1, 1998 and December 31, 2018. Cox regression was used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) with 99% confidence intervals (CI) owing to multiple testing, of incident HH with adjustments for age, cancer, other comorbidities, and socio-demographics.
Results: In the first-generation study, there were 5,112 cases of HH, and in the second-generation study 4,626 cases of HH. The adjusted HRs for first-generation men and women overall were 0.72 (99% CI: 0.63–0.82) and 0.61 (99% CI: 0.52–0.72), respectively, and for the second-generation men and women 0.72 (99% CI: 0.62–0.83) and 0.97 (99% CI: 0.83–1.14), respectively, with a higher risk found only among first-generation men from Western Europe, HR 1.47 (99% CI: 1.05–2.06), compared to the control group.
Conclusions: Our findings indicate that the overall risk of HH was lower among both first-generation and second-generation immigrants when compared to individuals born in Sweden or with Swedish-born parents. An elevated risk for HH was observed exclusively among first-generation men originating from Western Europe. These findings represent new knowledge and should be of global interest.

Penyakit kelamin adalah penyakit yang penularannya terutama melalui hubungan seksual. Cara hubungan kelamin tidak hanya terbatas secara genito-genital saja, tetapi dapat juga secara ora-genital, atau ano-genital, sehingga kelainan yang timbul akibat penyakit kelamin ini tidak terbatas hanya pada daerah genital saja, tetapi apat juga pada daerah – daerah ekstra genital. Ternyata pada akhir – akhir ini ditemukan berbagai penyakit lain yang juga dapat timbul akibat hubungan seksual dan penemuan ini antara lain disebakan oleh perbaikan sarana dan teknik laboratorium dan penemuan beberapa jenis penyaki secara epidemi seperti herpes genetalis dan hepatitis B.
Oleh karena itu istilah V.D makin lama makin di tinggalkan dan di oerkenalkan istilah Sexually Transmitted Diseases (S.T.D) yang berarti penyakit – penyakit yang dapat di tularkan melalui hubungan kelamin, dan yang termasuk penyakit ini adalah kelima penyakit V.D. tersebut di tambah berbagai lain yang tidak masuk V.D istilah S.T.D. ini diindonesiakan menjadi P.M.S. (Penyakit Menular Seksual), ada pula yang menyebutnya P.H.S. (penyakit hubungan seksual). Sehubungan P.M.S ini sebagian besar di sebabkan oleh infeksi, maka kemudian istilah S.T.D telah di ganti menjadi S.T.I (Sexually Transmitted Infection).

Limitations in wavelet analysis of non-stationary atmospheric gravity wave signatures in temperature profiles
Authors: Reichert Robert , Kaifler Natalie , Kaifler Bernd 
Published: August 2024

Abstract. Continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is a commonly used mathematical tool when it comes to the time–frequency (or distance–wavenumber) analysis of non-stationary signals that is used in a variety of research areas. In this work, we use the CWT to investigate signatures of atmospheric internal gravity waves (GWs) as observed in vertical temperature profiles obtained, for instance, by lidar. The focus is laid on the determination of vertical wavelengths of dominant GWs. According to linear GW theory, these wavelengths are a function of horizontal wind speed, and hence, vertical wind shear causes shifts in the evolution of the vertical wavelength. The resulting signal fulfills the criteria of a chirp. Using complex Morlet wavelets, we apply CWT to test mountain wave signals modeling wind shear of up to 5m s-1km-1 and investigate the capabilities and limitations. We find that the sensitivity of the CWT decreases for large chirp rates, i.e., strong wind shear. For a fourth-order Morlet wavelet, edge effects become dominant at a vertical wind shear of 3.4m s-1km-1. For higher-order wavelets, edge effects dominate at even smaller values. In addition, we investigate the effect of GW amplitudes growing exponentially with altitude on the determination of vertical wavelengths. It becomes evident that in the case of conservative amplitude growth, spectral leakage leads to artificially enhanced spectral power at lower altitudes. Therefore, we recommend normalizing the GW signal before the wavelet analysis and before the determination of vertical wavelengths. Finally, the cascading of receiver channels, which is typical of middle-atmosphere lidar measurements, results in an exponential sawtooth-like pattern of measurement uncertainties as a function of altitude. With the help of Monte Carlo simulations, we compute a wavelet noise spectrum and determine significance levels, which enable the reliable determination of vertical wavelengths. Finally, the insights obtained from the analysis of artificial chirps are used to analyze and interpret real GW measurements from the Compact Rayleigh Autonomous Lidar in April 2018 in Río Grande, Argentina. Comparison of commonly used analyses and our suggested wavelet analysis demonstrate improvements in the accuracy of determined wavelengths. For future analyses, we suggest the usage of a fourth-order Morlet wavelet, normalization of GW amplitudes before wavelet analysis, and computation of the significance level based on measurement uncertainties.

Crossing Gender Studies With the Commons: A Bibliometric Analysis
Authors: Périvier Hélène 
Published: August 2024

Gender studies and commons studies have gradually developed to achieve academic recognition. They share common features : both fields lead to a rethinking of the boundaries between private and public spheres, renewing the definitions of ownership, labor, management, and resource sharing. They also pay specific attention to North-South relations. The concepts of gender and the commons are rooted in academia and are subject to various appropriations, particularly for programmatic purposes advocating for gender, environmental, and social justice. Crossing these two perspectives produces a heterogeneous body of knowledge, analysis, and recommendations. The purpose of this paper is to report on the diversity of literature at the intersection of gender studies and commons studies. We conduct a detailed bibliometric analysis based on an original database, Genre&Com. We quantify the dynamics of publications and dissemination, and the practices in terms of co-authoring and multidisciplinary collaboration. We also document the types of resources associated with the commons. Additionally, we compare the specificity of this dual field to the broader literature on the commons. Finally, we propose a framework to map this literature and apply it to the Genre&Com database. The ultimate goal is to facilitate the understanding and appropriation of this dual field by different categories of actors, including academics and practitioners.

Published: August 2024

Natural cork stoppers, used as bottle sealers for high-end products such as ingredients and flavorings, belong to the highest class in terms of cork quality. Various studies have been carried out to examine the solute diffusion in cork using conventional methods. However, the investigations were limited to natural cork stoppers that had been boiled and cut in a single direction. In this study, the anisotropic cylindrical shape of cork samples was modeled, considering various cutting directions. Additionally, we subjected the stoppers to boiling then to an optimal THT cycle to improve the cork's mechanical qualities. The optimal thermal cycle is determined using TGA analysis. IR and SEM tests are employed to verify the enhancements in the cork. The apparent mass diffusion coefficient (Dapp) is determined by the calibration of the model with the experimental data acquired via the conductometric method. The coefficient values are optimized using the Bat algorithm with a relative error of 10–5. The Dapp was found to be better for the treated cork grown in the Jijel region than for the cork Medea, which is better than of Skikda cork. Regarding the impact of the cutting direction on the Jijel's cork, the results indicate that the mass insulation is higher when the treated stoppers are cut in the tangential-longitudinal direction (DJTLt=4,12.10-13m2s-1) compared to the tangential-radial direction (DJTRt=7,75.10-13m2s-1) and the longitudinal-radial direction (DJLRt=8,53.10-13m2s-1). The treatment, which serves as a solution for the cork industry, showed an improvement in mass insulation 13-fold greater than the natural cork.
