The naval Operation Irini of the European Union: a step backwards of the csdp in the fight against the illegal immigration and search and rescue activities in the Mediterranean
Authors: Espaliú Berdud Carlos 
Published: April 2024

Operation Irini is a new EU naval operation, in the framework of CSDP, to address violations of the arms embargo and illicit export of petroleum products in Libya, imposed by the United Nations Security Council. As a second objective, the Operation contributes to the training of Libyan coastguards in their fight against illegal immigration, as well as combating the mafias involved in the smuggling of migrants in the Central Mediterranean. From the outset, the naval operation has had scant resources and, unsurprisingly, its results have been poor in these first three years. In short, this new Operation, in the wake of Sophia’s poor results in the last months of its activity, represents a new setback for the CSDP and for the EU’s ambition to become a relevant actor in contemporary international society. Unfortunately, moreover, allegations of significant violations of migrants’ human rights by Libyan coast guard forces cast a shadow over the EU, which is assisting and training these security forces.

Published: April 2024

Architectural spaces are one of the most important aspects that aim to establish dialogue between humans and their surroundings. The objectives of the current study were to describe the concept of architectural space, its constituent sections, the environmental elements that influence them (such as lighting, ventilation, air conditioning, privacy, and view), and the connections between their internal and external elements. The significance of this study comes from the fact that space size is a fundamental problem. This is because a large space requires larger services, which, while satisfying many needs, are not cost-effective when it comes to controlling factors, such as temperature, light levels, and the quality of the space and walls. One must understand how to distinguish it from other spaces and how to grade the spaces appropriately, bearing in mind the traits and way of life of the society being examined, to produce a location that is suitable for all purposes. Using effective indicators for each architectural space, each interior design component, and each design, the study utilized a descriptive methodology as well as proof of their effect on the psychological and behavioral health of the individual tenants in a selected sample of 25 residential units in one of the (388 dwelling units) residential complexes in the Al-Qadisiyah area of Tikrit. According to the findings, 60% of respondents were satisfied with the interior design of the housing units, 80% were satisfied with how the housing units looked from outside, and 12% were satisfied with every aspect of the housing units. 90% of people are content with their housing 90% of individuals are satisfied with the interior of their home, 90% are satisfied with the colors and materials utilized, 85% are satisfied with the lighting, 80 percent of individuals are satisfied with their view, 80 percent are glad with their privacy, 70 percent are happy with their home& orientation, the results show the importance of interior design in enhancing the architectural environment, which benefits the user on both a physical and psychological level. It has been successful in providing location authenticity and a sense of urban belonging.

Abstract

Aim
To investigate the effect of instrumentation using Protaper Next (PN, Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and Waveone Gold (WG, Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) systems on the area of untouched surface (US), accumulated hard tissue debris (AHTD), and the filling ability of two obturation techniques on the percentage of void within C-shaped root canals of mandibular first premolars.
Methodology:
64 mandibular first premolars with C-shaped canals were scanned, matched and assigned to 2 shaping groups (n = 32): PN and WG. Following instrumentation, specimens were randomly assigned into two obturation subgroups (n = 16): continuous wave compaction (CWC) and single-cone (SC) techniques. The US% and AHTD% after instrumentation and the vol% of void after obturation were calculated from micro-computed tomography. Data were analyzed using comparisons for two groups (PN vs WG) or two subgroups (CWC vs SC) at α = 0.05.
Results
For PN and WG, 18.75% and 22.69%, respectively, of the canal wall remained untouched (p > 0.05). For both groups, the apical third had higher US% than the coronal third (p < 0.05). Instrumentation with WG left more debris (26.48%) than PN (8.36%) in the apical 1-3mm (p < 0.05). In PN and WG group, the vol% of void had no significant difference between the CWC and SC subgroups(p > 0.05). The apical region had significantly more voids than the coronal region of the canal space in the two obturation subgroups regardless of which system was applied (p < 0.05).
Conclusions
Both PN and WG systems were associated with similar US after instrumenting C-shaped canals of the mandibular first premolar. WG left significantly more AHTD compared with PN in the apical region. In PN or WG group, SC yielded similar obturation quality when compared with CWC. Both CWC and SC obturation techniques provided poorer filling quality in the apical region than in the coronal region.
Clinical Significance:
Micro-CT evaluation of the PN and WG shaping C-shaped canals in mandibular first premolars showed similar effects on the percentages of untouched canal wall. The PN produced less hard tissue debris in the apical regions compared with the WG. The SC yielded similar obturation quality compared with the CWC.
Septic Abortion at 17 Weeks Gestation After Radical Trachelectomy and Transabdominal Cerclage: A Case Report
Authors: McNamee Lisa , Amir Sharon , Lau Kiger 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Introduction
Septic abortion can lead to severe maternal morbidity and mortality. The management of septic abortion can be complicated by a history of radical trachelectomy and transabdominal cerclage placement.
Case Presentation
A 33-year-old G1P0 at 17 weeks and 6 days gestation presented in severe septic shock after being diagnosed with previable rupture of membranes 6 days prior. Her history was notable for cervical adenocarcinoma status post radical trachelectomy and transabdominal cerclage placement. Due to uterine occlusion from the cerclage, she underwent emergent uterine evacuation via an abdominal approach.
Conclusions
The risks and benefits of expectant management of pre-viable rupture of membranes in patients with abdominal cerclage should be weighed very cautiously. Among women with abdominal cerclage for whom uterine evacuation is indicated, a transabdominal approach may be necessary.

Abstract

The integration of radar technology into smart furniture represents a practical approach to health monitoring, circumventing the concerns regarding user convenience and privacy often encountered by conventional smart home systems. Radar technology's inherent non-contact methodology, privacy-preserving features, adaptability to diverse environmental conditions, and high precision characteristics collectively establish it a compelling alternative for comprehensive health monitoring within domestic environments. In this paper, we introduce a mm-wave radar system positioned strategically behind a seat, featuring an algorithm capable of identifying unique cardiac waveform patterns for healthy subjects. These patterns are characterized by two peaks followed by a valley in each cycle, which can be correlated to ECG, enabling effective cardiac waveform monitoring. The provided algorithm excels in discerning variations in heart patterns, particularly in individuals with prolonged corrected QT intervals, by minimizing high frequency breathing interference and ensuring accurate pattern recognition. Additionally, this paper addresses the influence of body movements in seated individuals, conducting a comprehensive study on heart rate variability and estimation. Experiment results demonstrate a maximum heart rate variability error of 30 milliseconds and an average relative error of 4.8% in heart rate estimation, showcasing the efficacy of the proposed method utilizing variational mode decomposition and a multi-bin approach.
Determinants of Vaccination Coverage Among Refugee Children Aged 12-59 Months in Kyangwali Refugee Settlement in Uganda
Authors: Wesley Steven , Rabbanie Tariq 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Introduction: Forced displacement is a global issue that leads to challenges like limited healthcare and low vaccination rates, particularly for children. Despite the significant impact on health outcomes, research on vaccination coverage among refugee children in Uganda is lacking. This study aimed to bridge this gap by determining factors associated with full vaccination among refugee children aged 12 to 59 months.
Method: The study was conducted in Kyangwali refugee settlement. This unmatched case-control design included 140 fully vaccinated cases and 280 controls. Data was collected from 14 randomly selected villages. Analysis was performed, and summary tables with counts and percentages were used for univariate analysis. Bivariate analysis was conducted to attain odds ratios. Factors associated with full vaccination were determined in multivariable analysis using logistic regression. A p-value of 0.05 was considered significant, and collinearity was assessed using 0.4 cutoff.
Results: Out of 420 participants, 58.6% were below 30 years old, 85.6% were from DR Congo, and 26.7% were not educated. Among index children, 84.8% were females, 45.5% aged 36-59 months, and 33.3% were fully vaccinated, with 39.1% being males. Factors associated with full vaccination included DR Congo origin (AOR: 2.15, CI: 1.08-4.28), high parental knowledge (AOR: 2.96, CI: 1.5-5.79), and receiving vaccine information from community health workers (AOR: 2.48, CI: 1.58-3.88). Proximity to health facilities also mattered, with those within 5 km having nearly 2 times higher odds of full vaccination (AOR: 1.94, CI: 1.2-3.09) than those beyond 5 km.
Conclusion: This study highlights a substantial gap in childhood vaccination within Kyangwali refugee settlements, with only 33.3% of children below 5 fully vaccinated. Significant associations with full vaccination included Congolese origin, high parental knowledge, and receiving vaccine information from community health workers. Proximity to health facilities also played a crucial role, with those within 5 km exhibiting nearly 2 times higher odds of full vaccination.
Association between Serum Copper, Copper/Selenium Ratio and Risk of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in Smokers and Non-smokers: A cross-sectional study of NHANES 2011-2016
Authors: Yang Jie , Guo Jun , Wang Jinghua , Liu Wei , Kang Yingjie , Li Zhi 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Background
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent condition characterized by significant morbidity and mortality. It ranks as the primary cause of adult mortality globally, entailing substantial economic costs. Numerous studies indicate a linkage between serum copper(Cu), copper-selenium ratio(Cu/Se-ratio), and diverse diseases. However, the relationships between serum Cu, Cu/Se-ratio, and COPD among smokers and non-smokers has been understudied, warranting additional investigation.
Methods
Our study was a cross-sectional analysis based on the 2011–2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)data, including 5154 participants. Utilizing univariable and multivariable logistic regression, alongside restricted cubic spline (RCS) methods, we evaluated the correlation and dose-response relationships of serum Cu and Cu/Se-ratio with COPD risk, focusing on differences between smokers and non-smokers.
Results
Following adjustment for confounding factors, a positive link was identified in the general population between serum Cu (OR = 1.04; 95%CI, 1.02–1.07), Cu/Se-ratio (OR = 1.06; 95%CI, 1.02–1.09), and COPD risk. Further analysis, stratified by smoking status, showed in smokers, serum Cu (OR = 1.06; 95%CI, 1.03–1.10) and Cu/Se-ratio (OR = 1.07; 95%CI, 1.03–1.12) significantly correlated positively with COPD risk. In the non-smoking group, however, no significant links were detected between serum Cu (OR = 0.99; 95%CI, 0.94–1.04), Cu/Se-ratio (OR = 1.00; 95%CI, 0.94–1.07), and COPD risk. RCS analysis uncovered a linear relationship between serum Cu, Cu/Se-ratio, and COPD risk across both the general populace and smokers.
Conclusion
Data analysis from the 2011–2016 NHANES indicates a positive correlation between elevated serum Cu levels, Cu/Se-ratios, and COPD risk in smokers.

Abstract

Purpose: To comprehensively assess the prevalence and risk factors of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in 470 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in China, and to gain a better understanding of the treatment-related risk factors.
Methods: In this retrospective study, 470 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in China between January 2020 and July 2022 were included. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, nutritional status, disease and treatment history, blood biochemistry, and microbiological factors were gathered using electronic medical records, alongside oral and dietary information collected through field investigations and telephone follow-ups. The association between chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis and these variables was assessed using univariate and multivariate logistic analyses.
Results: The study found a high prevalence (45.1%) of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The occurrence of oral mucositis was associated with several factors, including receiving more than five chemotherapy cycles (P<0.001), carrying HSV-1(P=0.016), being infected with Candida albicans(P=0.012), undergoing chemotherapy with specific drugs containing methotrexate/daunorubicin/cytarabine(P<0.001), having a high clinical risk stratification(P=0.002), and being over 6 years old(P=0.002).
Conclusion: The study suggests that the prevalence of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia is relatively high. It emphasizes the importance of clinical medical staff paying attention to this issue and adopting targeted interventions to reduce the prevalence of oral mucositis in this patient population.

Abstract

Image segmentation of the liver is an important step in several treatments for liver cancer. However, manual segmentation at a large scale is not practical, leading to increasing reliance on deep learning models to automatically segment the liver. This manuscript develops a deep learning model to segment the liver on T1w MR images. We sought to determine the best architecture by training, validating, and testing three different deep learning architectures using a total of 819 T1w MR images gathered from six different datasets, both publicly and internally available. Our experiments compared each architecture’s testing performance when trained on data from the same dataset via 5-fold cross validation to its testing performance when trained on all other datasets. Models trained using nnUNet achieved mean Dice-Sorensen similarity coefficients > 90% when tested on each of the six datasets individually. The performance of these models suggests that an nnUNet liver segmentation model trained on a large and diverse collection of T1w MR images would be robust to potential changes in contrast protocol and disease etiology.
