Jalan Permitan-Krombangan termasuk Jalan Kabupaten. Salah satu ruas jalan terletak di Dusun Gedongan Kidul Desa Bondowoso. Jalan tersebut masih minim penerangan jalannya. Keadaan jalan yang gelap akan menimbulkan masalah, yaitu keamanan bagi pemakai jalan di malam hari. Lampu penerangan yang sudah ada juga akan menimbulkan masalah baru, karena menarik kabel dari jalur listrik PLN dan tentunya akan menambah beban biaya operasional. Berkenaan dengan hal tersebut, tim pengabdian mencoba untuk mencari pemecahan masalah tersebut. Solusi yang akan ditawarkan adalah pemasangan lampu penerangan dengan tenaga surya. Prinsip kerja lampu tenaga surya sangat sederhana. Lampu merupakan beban listrik yang harus dinyalakan dalam jangka waktu tertentu. Idealnya, lampu menyala pada pukul 18.00 hingga 06.00, atau tergantung matahari terbit dan terbenam di area tersebut. Lampu dapat dinyalakan/dimatikan secara otomatis dengan sensor cahaya atau pengatur waktu. Lampu yang terpasang sejumlah 8 unit dan masing-masing sudah menyala dengan baik.

Objective: To find out how common cognitive impairment is in people with major depressive disorder (MDD) and assess how well vortioxetine works for treating both cognitive dysfunction and depressive symptoms.
Study Design: Multi-centred, Cross-sectional, prospective follow up design
Place & Duration of Study: The research took place over the course of 12 weeks at 16 different psychiatric outpatient clinics throughout Pakistan, from September 2020 to November 2020.
Method: The study included 498 individuals with serious depressive disorder diagnoses. The degree of depression symptoms and cognitive impairment was assessed. Psychiatrists gave trial participants vortioxetine after completing the Clinical Global Impression-Severity scale (CGI-S), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and the Perceived Deficits Questionnaire (PDQ). The variables were reassessed one week (+/- 3 days), one month (+/- 7 days), and three months (+/- 14 days) after the treatment began.
Results: After completing a 12-week course of therapy with vortioxetine, mean PHQ 9 and PDQ scores of MDD individuals showed significant improvements. This indicates that vortioxetine is effective in reducing depression symptoms as well as cognitive impairments in MDD patients. A strong connection was seen between PHQ-9 and PDQ scores, indicating a direct relationship between cognitive impairment and depressed symptoms.
Conclusions: The results of the research demonstrate how well vortioxetine works to treat cognitive impairments in MDD patients while also reducing depressed symptoms. These findings demonstrate the possibility of vortioxetine as a beneficial therapeutic option for those with MDD diagnoses who also have cognitive impairment. Additional investigation is required to validate these findings and assess their suitability for other demographics.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: Pre-existing psychiatric illnesses, such as mood and psychotic disorders, are 3–4 times more common and frequently undetected in HCV patients. This could be brought on by a diminished desire to use or access mental and primary health care services, actual or imagined stigma against HCV patients, or denial of their psychiatric symptoms. Comorbid depression can impact the outcome because it is linked to decreased HCV therapy adherence.
Objectives: To quantify the prevalence of depression among Hepatitis C patients not receiving treatment.
Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study.
Setting: Medical Department, Faisalabad Medical University and affiliated Allied Hospital, Faisalabad.
Study duration: 30th December 2021 to 29th June 2022.
Materials & Methods: A total of 310 patients having Hepatitis C infection, with an age range of 20 years to 60 years, were included, while the patients suffering from an additional underlying chronic medical disease like CKD, COPD and diabetes, which can cause depression, were excluded. Demographic data, including age, gender, residence (rural or urban), education of patient (Primary, middle or higher education), marital status (single, married or separated), income of patient and duration of Hepatitis C infection were recorded. The researcher interviewed the selected patients by using Beck Depression Inventory.
Results: The study's age ranged from 20 to 60 years, with a mean age of 41.75 + 8.62. Most 163 patients (52.58%) were in the 20–40 age range. 166 (53.55%) of the 310 patients were men, and 144 (46.45%) were women, for a male-to-female ratio of 1.2:1. In our study, the frequency of depression in patients with Hepatitis C infection not receiving any treatment was found in 187 (60.32%) patients.
Conclusion: The conclusion of the study is that the frequency of depression in patients suffering from Hepatitis C infection not receiving any treatment is very high.

Published: January 2010

AbstractDa Distickstoffoxid eine bedeutende Rolle beim Ozonabbau in der Stratosphäre und als Treibhausgas spielt, besteht ein großes Interesse daran, seinen Abbau insbesondere durch Metallpromotoren zu verstehen und effizienter zu machen. Neue Erkenntnisse über die Reaktionspfade bei der N2O‐Reduktion durch Metallionen in der Gasphase sowie in heterogenen, homogenen und biologischen Katalysesystemen haben interessante Einblicke in die Struktur und Eigenschaften von Metall‐N2O‐Addukten und abgeleiteten Intermediaten gegeben. Dieses vertiefte Verständnis wird sicher zur Entwicklung von wirksameren Katalysatoren für die Verringerung der N2O‐Emissionen beitragen.
Poly(ethylene‐2,6‐naphthalate) nanofiber prepared by carbon dioxide laser supersonic drawing
Authors: Suzuki Akihiro , Yamada Yuuki 
Published: January 2010

AbstractPoly(ethylene‐2,6‐naphthalate) (PEN) nanofiber was prepared by a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser supersonic drawing. The CO2 laser supersonic drawing was carried out by irradiating the laser to the as‐spun PEN fiber in a low‐temperature supersonic jet. The supersonic jet was generated by blowing off air into a vacuum chamber from a fiber supplying orifice. The flow velocity from the orifice can be estimated by applying Graham's theorem from the pressure difference between the atmospheric pressure and the pressure of the vacuum chamber. The fastest flow velocity estimated was 396 m s−1 (Mach 1.15) at a chamber pressure of 6 KPa. The nanofiber obtained at Mach 1.15 was the oriented nanofibers with an average diameter of 0.259 μm, and its draw ratio estimated from the diameters before and after the drawing reached 430,822 times. The CO2 laser supersonic drawing is a new method to make nanofiber without using any solvent or removing the second component. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010
Application of Mie light scattering to the morphological development of polypropylene/polystyrene blends. I. Method for the determination of Mie scattering
Authors: Li Yun Yan , Yan Da , Ma Gui Qiu , Yuan Xu Bo , Sheng Jing 
Published: January 2010

AbstractIn this article, we introduce a new method, Mie scattering, for investigating the dependence of the morphology of polypropylene (PP)/polystyrene (PS) blends on the composition and mixing time. The size and corresponding distribution of the particles were also deduced on the basis of the Mie scattering theory. To confirm the effectiveness of this new method for morphology studies, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed to study the morphology development as a function of the blend composition and mixing time; furthermore, the results by Mie scattering were compared with those by SEM analysis. The results by Mie scattering were similar to those by SEM, and this indicated that Mie scattering is an effective method for describing the morphology development of polymer blends. The main purpose of this article is simply to report this new method; in another article of this series, the application of this method in investigations of the compatibilization of PP/PS blends will be reported. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Artificial and natural weathering of ABS
Authors: Santos R. M. , Botelho G. L. , Machado A. V. 
Published: January 2010

AbstractAcrylonitrile‐butadiene‐styrene (ABS) is a complex copolymer with exceptional importance in technological applications. However, ABS is known to present a high susceptibility to weathering when exposed to UV radiation in the presence of oxygen. In this work, photodegradation of ABS was studied under natural and accelerated conditions. Exposed samples were removed periodically and characterized by several analytical techniques. During both types of weathering chemical modifications occurs mainly at the surface, which affects considerable the optical, mechanical, and rheological properties. The results obtained evidence that during accelerated weathering the formation rate of photodegradation products is higher when compared to natural weathering results. However, chain scission occurs mainly along natural conditions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010
The effect of hydrolytic and thermal degradation on mechanical properties of industrial polyester yarns
Authors: Sheikhzadeh M. , Ghaeli I. , Pirzadeh E. , Bateni F. 
Published: January 2010

AbstractFor industrial polyester yarns, the study of hydrolytic/thermal degradation is important, because of the negative influence of these degradations on mechanical properties of polyester yarns. In this research, tensile force at breaking point and elongation at break were used to assess the hydrolytic and thermal degradation of industrial polyester yarns with two draw ratios of 3.5 and 4, which were exposed in water and in oven for 28 days and at different temperatures of Tg, below and above Tg. Totally, the amount of these degradations at temperatures of 70 to 90°C is not high. The investigation shows that tensile strength at breaking point of industrial polyester yarn will decrease in water and in oven at higher temperature; this degradation is lower for yarn with high draw ratio. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal and mechanical properties of blends of polylactide and poly(ethylene glycol‐co‐propylene glycol): Influence of annealing
Authors: Ran Xianghai , Jia Zhiyuan , Han Changyu , Yang Yuming , Dong Lisong 
Published: January 2010

AbstractTwo kinds of polylactide (PLA) which was named PLA1 with L‐lactide content of 98% and PLA2 with L‐lactide content of 88% were blended with poly(ethylene glycol‐co‐propylene glycol) (PEPG) in a batchwise mixer and pressed into films. The effect of annealing on the thermal properties, crystallization behavior, and mechanical properties of the quenched blends were studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), polar optical microscopy (POM), and tensile tests. PEPG was miscible with the two kinds of PLA in the blend composition range of 5–20 wt % and can effectively decrease the glass transition temperature of PLA. Neat PLA2 lost the ability to crystallize in the DSC and DMA measurements; however, it could crystallize after annealing for long time and crystallize more easily due to the improved crystallizability with the addition of PEPG. Both of the PLAs underwent cold crystallization when annealing at 90°C, and there were signs of phase separation occurring in the blends at the same time. The crystallization morphology and tensile properties of the annealed blends were different and dependent of the optical purity of PLA. The blends with PLA2 after annealing regained the brittleness with maximum of elongation at break about 20% and showed larger spherulites in the POM images, whereas the blends with PLA1 after annealing still kept some flexibility with maximum of elongation at break about 65% and showed fine spherulites. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride)/layered double hydroxide nanocomposites
Authors: Liu Jun , Chen Guangming , Yang Jiping , Ding Liping 
Published: January 2010

AbstractEffects of nanoscale dispersed layered double hydroxides (LDHs) on thermal stability of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) in thermal and thermooxidative degradation processes are investigated by dynamic and isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), discoloration test, fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and ultraviolet‐visible (UV‐vis) spectroscopic techniques. During both stages of thermal degradation, the degradation temperatures, including onset degradation temperature and temperature of the maximum degradation rate, increase, and the final residue yield of the PVC/LDH nanocomposites reaches 14.7 wt %, more than double that for neat PVC. The thermooxidative degradation process is more complex. During the first two stages, the presence of nanoscale dispersed LDH particles enhances the thermal stability, whereas in the last stage accelerates the thermal degradation possibly due to the accumulation of heat released. Additionally, the studies of the isothermal thermooxidative degradation process by FTIR and UV‐vis spectra indicate that both polyene backbone formation and some carbonyl groups are simultaneously developed. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: January 2010

AbstractThis work aims to prepare and characterize a new generation composite films with gelatins extracted from bovine and bird bones (Gb and Gc, respectively) in addition to collagen, hide powder, (HP) which are blended with copolymerized polyethylene (MPE) and low density polyethylene, using polymer melt technique, which may be suitable for application as a base material for dental and orthopedic implants with better biological response. The bone‐bonding ability of the composite films was evaluated by examining the ability of apatite to form on their surface in a simulated body fluid (SBF) with ion concentrations nearly equal to those of human blood plasma. The examination of apatite formation on the composites after immersion in SBF for 7 days was carried out by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X‐ray. The results showed the formation of thick apatite layer on the surface of the biocomposite films in special way on these containing Gb/MPE and collagen/MPE. Promising results have been achieved indicating that these novel biocomposites have unique bioactivity properties, which can be applied in bone implants and tissue engineering applications as scaffolds in future. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The water vapor sorption behavior of flax fibers—Analysis using the parallel exponential kinetics model and determination of the activation energies of sorption
Authors: Hill Callum A.S. , Norton Andrew , Newman Gary 
Published: January 2010

AbstractSorption kinetic data for the interaction of water vapor with flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) were analyzed used the parallel exponential kinetics (PEK) model, with excellent fits to the data being obtained. The PEK model is the sum of two exponential kinetics processes (fast and slow), which have characteristic times and moisture contents associated with them. The slow adsorption and desorption processes exhibited important differences in their characteristic times, although hysteresis in the moisture contents was found to be predominantly associated with the fast process. The kinetics was examined over a range of relative humidity (RH) values and at different temperatures, enabling the determination of activation energies for the adsorption and desorption kinetic processes throughout the hygroscopic range (from 5–95% RH). © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
