Noise Pollution in the Operating Room
Authors: Davis-Sandfoss Tyler A.C. , Smith-Steinert Rachel 
Published: August 2024

Introduction:
Noise pollution in the operating room (OR) poses a threat to both patients and providers. Sound levels often exceed recommended standards set forth by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The purpose of this project was to examine current evidence and implement education for student registered nurse anesthetists (SRNAs) regarding noise pollution in the OR. The education module emphasized the effect of increased noise levels on the delivery of an anesthetic, with a focus on resultant sequelae.
Methods:
A literature review produced 117 articles, of which thirty-five were included for analysis. Systematic reviews, randomized and non-randomized control trials, cohort studies, case studies, qualitative studies and expert opinion were all considered. A research based education module was delivered to SRNAs. A pre-test and post-test methodology was utilized to assess the efficacy of the education module for SRNAs.
Analysis of Results:
Results generated from the education module illustrate a knowledge deficient of student registered nurse anesthetists pertaining to noise reduction, cognitive demand, and attention allocation. Post-test scores (M=90%) for SRNAs who completed the education module were significantly greater than pre-test scores (M=60%). t(39)= 10.1, p = 1.88 x 10-12.
Recommendations for Practice:
Noise pollution is a complex, multifactorial problem. The physical, psychological and emotional effects of noise pollution are the inability to critically think, impaired team communication, chronic hearing loss, increased incidence of cardiovascular disease, and medical error. Emphasis placed on sustaining and integrating noise reduction education into curriculum schemas of nurse anesthesia programs is prudent. Educational content delivered to all anesthesia providers and the interdisciplinary care team in the operating room would be a comprehensive plan. Although several national initiatives are in place to reduce noise, it is imperative that knowledge is shared and interventions implemented to protect both provider and patient. Furthermore, there should be a collaboration amongst a variety of surgical specialties to continue research pertaining to the production of noise in the operating room.

O presente estudo teve por objetivo, apoiado em uma revisão de literatura, compreender o manejo do psicólogo clínico no atendimento ao paciente com comportamento suicida. Realizou-se um levantamento bibliográfico, por meio dos sistemas informatizados de busca: SciELO, PePSIC, LILACS e no buscador Google Acadêmico, no período de 2013 a 2020, cujos descritores foram: psicólogo, prática clínica, comportamento suicida e manejo. Foram utilizados oito artigos, uma dissertação e dois livros. Os resultados revelaram que o manejo do psicólogo clínico ao paciente com comportamento suicida, para ser efetivo e assertivo, depende, entre muitos fatores, principalmente da capacitação profissional específica, visto que a informação sobre o assunto não é insuficiente na graduação e orientação na prática clínica. Além disso, saber identificar o grau e os fatores de risco e poder contar com os familiares e amigos são aspectos fundamentais no tratamento desses pacientes. O psicólogo deve investir na psicoterapia pessoal e supervisão clínica para realizar um manejo adequado, pautado nos princípios do Código de Ética do Psicólogo, sem negligenciar o autocuidado, uma vez que há uma sobrecarga emocional ao cuidar do paciente com comportamento suicida. Conclui-se que, quando se trata do manejo do psicólogo clínico a esse paciente, é necessário contar com uma rede de apoio e com outros profissionais. É preciso um olhar acolhedor e respeitoso com a dor do paciente que transita entre o viver e o morrer.

Роботу присвячено дослідженню можливості утилізації берегових покладів морської трави Zostera Marina з отриманням актуального енергонасиченого матеріалу – нітроцелюлози. В роботі проведено літературний пошук за напрямком – використання нетрадиційної рослинної сировини у виробництві нітроцелюлози. Для отримання целюлози з морської трави було обрано органо-сольвентний метод, як такий, що має мінімальний вплив на навколишнє середовище в процесі використання. У якості сировини використовувалися промиті зразки покладів сухої морської трави з узбережжя Каркінітської затоки. Обраним методом була отримана целюлоза, та досліджена на вміст α-целюлози, який склав 75 %. Нітрування целюлози проводилося в лабораторних умовах з використанням потрійної нітруючої суміші.
Отримані зразки нітроцелюлози досліджені з використанням хімічних та інструментальних методів. Вміст нітрогену в зразках склав 11.95%. За результатами роботи доведено можливість використання берегових покладів морської трави Zostera Marina у якості альтернативної сировини для виготовлення нітроцелюлози. Це сприятиме очищенню берегової лінії від накопичених покладів морської трави та водночас створює джерело альтернативної сировини для отримання нітроцелюлози, яка є важливою складовою вибухових речовин, необхідних в період війни.

Abstract

The human lungs, crucial for supplying oxygen, are vulnerable to diseases such as lung cancer, a leading cause of mortality. Timely prediction of lung cancer is essential to enable early intervention by healthcare professionals, enhancing patient outcomes and saving lives. This study introduces a comprehensive Machine Learning (ML) model designed to predict lung cancer at an early stage, utilizing a dataset sourced from Kaggle. Built on the Random Forest algorithm, the model assesses a diverse set of characteristics and variables, including gender, age, and exposure to various environments and lifestyles. It accurately identifies individuals at a higher risk of developing early-stage lung cancer, facilitating prompt intervention and personalized treatment strategies. Key evaluation metrics demonstrating the model's effectiveness include precision, F1 score, recall, and accuracy. The findings indicate a model accuracy of approximately 97.9%, underscoring its potential as a valuable tool for enhancing the early detection of lung cancer.

Abstract

Introduction
We assessed effects of the Informed Health Choices (IHC) secondary school intervention on students’ ability to think critically about choices one year after the intervention.
Methods
We randomized eighty secondary schools to the intervention or control (usual curriculum). The schools were randomly selected from the central region of Uganda and included rural and urban, government and privately-owned schools. One randomly selected class of year-2 students (age 14-17) from each school participated in the trial. The intervention included a two-day teacher training workshop, 10 lessons accessed online by teachers and delivered in classrooms during one school term (May-August 2022). The lessons addressed nine prioritized IHC concepts. We used two multiple-choice questions for each concept to evaluate the students’ ability to think critically about choices at both the end of the school term and again after one year. The primary outcome was the proportion of students with a passing score(≥9 of 18 questions answered correctly) on the “Critical Thinking about Health” (CTH) test.
Results
After one-year, 71% (1749/2477) of the students in the intervention schools and 71% (1684/2376) of the students in the control schools completed the CTH test. In the intervention schools, 53% (934/1749) of students that completed the test had a passing score compared to 33% (557/1684) of students in the control schools (adjusted difference 22%, 95% CI 16–28).
Conclusions
The effect of the IHC secondary school intervention on students’ ability to assess health-related claims was largely sustained for at least one year.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Innovation in green technologies is a key factor propelling Pakistan's high-quality development. The meaning, determinants, and green innovation mode choices have drawn enough attention recently, but limited researchers have thoroughly examined the pathways through which green innovation is transmitted to SMEs' performance. Green product and process innovation are the two amin stream themes of green innovation that can enhance SMEs' performance. The current research builds the framework for SMEs performance based on green product innovation and green process innovation following earlier research that have been conducted in the context of developed countries. It conducts an empirical analysis using information from 384 manufacturing sector SMEs in Jordan. The findings demonstrate that SMEs can perform better when green products and processes are innovated. One significant moderating variable over the performance paths of SMEs is the turbulence in technology. Green process innovation within a company has the potential to positively impact green product innovation. The findings of the research contribute to a better understanding of green innovation and have implications for designing policies that promote green development.

Abstract

Niger is an important oilseed crop, and its flowering phenology is highly responsive to cross-pollination. Honey bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) are the crop's important pollinators due to their adaptation to wide environments. A comparative analysis was performed under field conditions to evaluate the effect of honey bee pollination and fertilizer application on the yield parameters of niger seed. The study was tested under different treatment conditions: (1) plots that were caged by honey bees and received fertilizer; (2) plots that were caged by honey bees but did not receive fertilizer; (3) plots that were restricted from any insect pollination but received fertilizer; and (4) plots that had free access to any pollinators and received fertilizer. The results showed that the mean number of primary branches and capitula per plant were highly significant (P < 0.05) among the treatments. A higher seed yield per ha was obtained in the treatment that received fertilizer and was caged with a honey bee colony (640 kg/ha). The oil content of the niger was higher (35.7%) for the treatment that was caged by honey bees for pollination but did not receive fertilizer. In this study, fertilizer application and honey bee pollination were both important in significantly increasing the seed set and seed yield of the niger plant. However, fertilizer application has less effect on the oil content of niger seed. Therefore, honey bee pollination must be considered in agronomical practices as a factor to sustain the yield and oil content of niger seed.

Abstract

Cold work die steel Cr12Mo1V1 is often used in metal plastic forming processing such as spinning, stamping, quenching, and tempering. It has a high hardness but still contains a lot of unstable residual austenite, which is prone to phase change in the service process to cause stress concentration, seriously affecting the contact fatigue performance of components. This paper studied the effects of different heat treatment processes on microhardness, residual stress, residual austenite content, and contact fatigue properties of Cr12Mo1V1 steel members by combining the cryogenic process with low-temperature and high-temperature tempering. The results show that the residual austenite content of the components can be reduced from 21.3–2.6%, and the contact fatigue life of the components can be increased by 1.89 times compared with the low-temperature tempering method.

Abstract

Background
rare diseases (RD) have progressively emerged as public health priority in many countries. Epidemiology still presents obstacles and extracting data from public health system remains insufficient. In France, RD database set up in 2013 as Banque Nationale de Données de Maladies Rares (BNDMR). Patients’ information is provided by physician at each consultation and RD are classified according ORPHAcode. We aimed to test the reliability and quality of data for epidemiology by analyzing the data from a rare disease caused by autosomal dominant inheritance and with a univocal genetic diagnosis: TNF-related associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS).
Results
we extracted data in January 2023. We found 132 patients who fulfilled inclusion criteria and we excluded 31 patients (missing data and duplicates). We analyzed 101 sequences of TNFSRSF1A gene. Pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants were found in 59% of patients, while the remaining 41% should currently be classified as undetermined systemic autoinflammatory disease (USAID). We therefore estimated the minimum prevalence of TRAPS in France: 1/1 343 568.
Conclusion
In the French National Rare Disease Registry, the quality of data remains a challenge, especially in monogenic diseases where the knowledge of the pathogenicity of variants and the number of gene involved is constantly increasing. Our study suggests that the data exported from the BNDMR needs important data correction to allow reliable epidemiologic studies in these diseases. However, the database seems to be a good tool to identify the centers where RD patients are followed and could be recruited in specific studies after confirmation of the diagnosis.
The influence of parent-child dynamics on cultural tensions: an identity perspective of conflicting values between traditional and consumerist cultures
Authors: Chandrasekara Ruwangi , Wijetunga Dinuka , Jayakody J.A.S.K. 
Published: August 2024

Abstract

This study addresses a gap in literature by exploring how dynamic cultural forces between parents and children lead to paradoxical identity conflicts and related tensions among them as consumers in the marketplace. Using two distinct consumer categories, the results show that traditionally rooted parents consider dependent children to be an extension of their identity and experience greater, more intense tensions due to consumerist aspirations and traditional obligations toward the child. These parents are torn between aspiring for their child, a traditional ideal or ought self-guide, and a consumerist ideal self-guide, which also paradoxically doubles up as a feared self-guide from which they want to keep the child away. The child, in turn, feels obliged to comply with parents’ traditional expectations despite having a predominantly consumerist identity, and feels similar tensions between conflicting value systems. In contrast, the nontraditional parents who are more attuned to Western consumers, do not use children as identity extensions; hence, they find no need to transfer personally rooted values to children and thereby do not experience tensions. The findings contribute to the literature on how children as contemporary consumers influence parents’ consumption behavior and how the consumerist tendencies of children could have implications for the identity and tensions of parents and vice versa.
Evaluation of goaf ground pressure monitoring and early warning system in based on safety integrity

Published: August 2024

Abstract

The goaf ground pressure monitoring and early warning system (GGPMEW) is crucial for ensuring the safety of mining production. The use of the GGPMEW with a higher safety integrity level (SIL) will increase the production cost of the mine when the stability of the goaf is good, while if the stability of the goaf is poor, using the GGPMEW with a lower SIL will increase the risk of mining accidents. In order to evaluate whether the capability of the GGPMEW can meet the demand, the theory of safety integrity is introduced to evaluate the GGPMEW. Two methods for classifying the stability levels of the goaf are presented. Based on the As Low As Reasonable Practical (ALARP) principle, a matching model is established between the stability grades of goafs and the safety integrity levels of the GGPMEW. This model facilitates the determination of the optimal safety integrity levels of GGPMEW across varying risk grades of goafs. Finally, a case study of the Second Mining Area of Baiyinnuoer Lead-Zinc Mine of China Nonferrous Metal Mining Group is conducted to analyze the stability of goafs and the safety integrity of the GGPMEW. The analysis identifies three goafs with significant unsafe conditions and proposes corresponding engineering recommendations to address these issues.
