Published: May 2024

ABSTRACTBackground:Tamarind seed aspiration is not frequent in children and is usually observed in kids from rural backgrounds, with easy access to tamarind fruits and their by-products.Materials and Methods:We report a retrospective review of five patients managed in the pediatric surgery department for tamarind seed aspiration into the tracheobronchial tree. The data were analyzed based on age, clinical presentation, bronchoscopic observations, and the challenges faced during the rigid bronchoscopic retrieval and postoperative course.Results:There were four boys and one girl with a median age of 10 years. High-resolution computed tomography thorax was done in all patients. The foreign body was identified in the right main bronchus in one and the left main bronchus in four patients. All five patients underwent rigid bronchoscopy and retrieval of the seed. Two patients had an early presentation (within a week) - they needed temporary tracheotomy as the swollen seed could not be negotiated through the narrow glottis. Two patients had a late presentation (around 15 days) - they required removal in piecemeal using crushing forceps and multiple insertions of bronchoscope prolonging surgical time. One patient presented at 22 days posttamarind aspiration. It was soft enough for easy disintegration with crocodile forceps and expeditiously removed in three to four pieces. All patients recovered uneventfully.Conclusion:Removal of tamarind seed foreign body from the tracheobronchial tree is challenging. Anticipating the difficulties and being prepared well, helps to reduce the intraoperative difficulty, and allow successful removal with favorable patient outcomes.

Authors: Sayeed Adnan , Alladi Anand , Lakshmaiah Venkatesh Kesarla 
Published: May 2024

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Pediatric upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy is an important procedure in the management of gastrointestinal pathologies. Conventionally, it has been the forte of medical gastroenterologists. However, unlike adults, the availability of pediatric gastroenterologists is limited, especially during emergency hours. We present our early experience of UGI endoscopy done by the department of pediatric surgery.

Aims:
The aim of this study was to study the feasibility and benefits of UGI endoscopy by pediatric surgeons.

Materials and Methods:
A retrospective descriptive study was carried out by the department of pediatric surgery of a tertiary-level medical college, from January 2017 to January 2022. Data were collected from electronic and physical medical records. Parameters included age, gender, indication for endoscopy, and procedures done endoscopically or based on endoscopic findings and complications.

Results:
One hundred and thirty endoscopies were done in 95 patients aged 1–16 years, from January 2017 to January 2022. The most common indication for UGI endoscopy was esophageal stricture (71 procedures in 41 patients), followed by UGI foreign body (18 cases). All other indications were mostly diagnostic, other than four patients with achalasia. Thirty of these patients underwent UGI endoscopy as an emergency procedure. Seventeen patients were followed through or had added procedures, with UGI endoscopy. There was one perforation when dilating an esophageal stricture who responded to conservative management.

Conclusion:
UGI endoscopy is a valuable diagnostic and therapeutic procedure, which can be performed by pediatric surgeons after necessary training. It supplements decision-making in management, avoids waste of time in referring, avoids additional anesthesia, and is valuable in emergencies.

INTRODUCTION:Only miniscrews [temporary anchoring devices, (TADs)] can provide absolute anchorage during orthodontic treatment. Titanium (Ti) is a fundamental material used in the production of miniscrews, but it has many disadvantages. Polyaryletheretherketone (PEEK) may have various benefits in the production of miniscrews. Finite element analysis (FEA) is a valid and reliable method for calculating stress, strain, and loading forces on complex structures and can be more time- and cost-efficient.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biomechanical performance of Ti and PEEK as miniscrew biomaterials employing FEA.MATERIALS AND METHODS:This study is a 3-D (3D) simulation with FEA. First, 3D miniscrew modeling is done using Ti base material and PEEK (1.4 mm × 6 mm size), as well as 3D inter-radicular space bone modeling. The simulation was performed by modeling the insertion angles (30°, 60°, and 90°) and applying a 200-gram loading force. The biomechanical performance of the miniscrew was then determined using FEA.RESULTS:As the angle of insertion increases, the tension on the bone decreases, the stress on the TADs increases, and the bone deformation decreases. Compared to TADs made of Ti and PEEK, TADs made of PEEK alone cause more bone stress than TADs made of Ti. The distortion in the maxilla is observed to be larger than in the mandibular.CONCLUSION:PEEK has greater stress on the bones than Ti and may be prospected as an alternative biomaterial for TAD fabrication, as documented in the FEA.

BACKGROUND:A lateral cephalogram is an essential diagnostic record for an orthodontist. It is used for diagnosis and treatment planning. This can be a prediction tool as well for developing anomalies of the skeletal, dental, and soft tissues of the head and neck. The sella turcica (ST), being a central landmark for cephalometric assessment, has great importance in itself as a diagnostic parameter to predict certain dental problems related to its bridging.AIM OF THE STUDY:1. To assess and compare the shape, size, and bridging of ST in subjects of Taif with different skeletal classifications. 2. To find whether there is any association between dental anomalies and sella turcica bridging (STB).MATERIALS AND METHODS:The study obtained ethical approval from the research ethics committee of Taif University with application no. 44-354 and with no. HAO-02-T-1 dated June 4, 2023. The study involved 87 study samples, divided as follows: a. Group 1: 49 control records. b. Group 2: 38 case records with STB.RESULTS:The results of our study were promising in relation to STB and the occurrence of dental anomalies in both the case and the control with the frequencies of occurrence being 46.94% and 36.84%, respectively. It was found that the percentage of distribution was more among class I malocclusions and least in class III. It is imperative that impaction (13.8%) is the most associated anomaly, followed by ectopic eruption (11.5%). Supernumerary teeth and gemination were the least associated with STB, and only 1% of the cases showed an association. Statistically significant associations were found for all types of dental anomalies as a result of distribution among cases and controls.CONCLUSION:Orthodontists commonly employ lateral cephalograms as a regular practice to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. Furthermore, these cephalograms can serve as predictive tools for dental anomalies. Detecting skeletal abnormalities at an early stage can provide insight into the likelihood of future dental anomalies, enabling clinicians to implement preventive measures accordingly.

The findings of the study demonstrate that, ontologically speaking, Islamic communication science is a branch of da'wah, the science that aims to disseminate genuine and true Islamic knowledge, concepts, and viewpoints. The individualism-conformity, egalitarian-hierarchical, transcendatalism-existentialism, and intuitive rational processes paradigms are then applied by Islamic communication science. Its epistemological foundations are amanah, taqwa, ummah, amar ma'ruf nahi munkar, and monotheism. The techniques employed, especially the bayani, tajribi, burhani, and irfani techniques, still make reference to Islamic epistemology. Additionally, axiologically, Islamic communication science is based on morals and values found in the Qur'an and Hadith. It seeks to advance Islamic communication theory, solve communication issues between people, and serve as a human medium for enhancing self-worth and developing human curiosity about science.

Ayurvedic Management of Shushkakshipaka w.s.r. To Dry Eye Syndrome - A Single Case Study
Authors: Devi Poonam , Vinaik Ashu , Tanwar Manoj 
Published: May 2024

Eyes are one of the most powerful tools that anyone can have; hence, all efforts should be made to protect the eyes. In today’s era, people depend more on machines like computers in all sectors of life. These cause some heat and radiation which certainly causes ill effects on the eyes. Tear (Ashru) secretion is an integral component of the ocular surface physiology; when compromised (quantitatively or qualitatively) leads to shushkakshipaka (dry eye syndrome) with various ocular discomfort symptoms and ultimately the patient may land in corneal blindness. Local, systemic, and environmental factors majorly affect its pathogenesis. Vata and Pitta/Rakta vitiation as per Ayurvedic viewpoint are the major contributing pathological factors in its manifestation. A 28-year-old female patient approached Shalakya OPD of SKGAC and H, Kurukshetra, complaining of irritation, foreign body sensation, eye fatigue, and pain in the periorbital region along with a feeling of dryness for 1 year. The patient had slight symptomatic relief but when medications were discontinued the condition used to reoccur, so she turned to Ayurvedic treatment for relief. In Ayurveda classics, specific treatment has been mentioned for Shushkakshipaka such as Snehana (~in-take of Ghee), Tarpana (~retention of ghee over eyes), Nasya (~Nasal medication), and Pariseka (~ocular irrigation). A patient of shushkakshipaka was treated with such treatment protocol, is presented as a case study in this article. Contrary to the available modern medical treatment Ayurveda propounds a systematic approach in the treatment of dry eye syndrome.
Ayurvedic Management of Cholelithiasis (Pittashmari) – A CaseStudy
Authors: Gupta Aman , Gupta Monika 
Published: May 2024

Gallstone formation, or cholelithiasis, is caused by a number of factors, including supersaturation of bile with cholesterol, accelerated nucleation of cholesterol monohydrate in bile, bile stasis, or delayed gallbladder emptying due to impaired gallbladder motility. After carefully rewriting Ayurvedic scriptures, we find that, because of its resemblance in location and function, the bile secreted from the gallbladder can be compared to the Accha Pitta stated in Ayurveda. We report that a case of cholelithiasis (Pittashmari) in a 31-year-old female patient had been complaining of severe abdominal pain, distension of the abdomen, and vomiting. Oral medications such as Arogyavardhini vati, tablet Trikatu, Kashaya of Trivrit, Katuki, Sanaya, Arghvad, and Daruharidra were administered to the patient for 3 months. A significant response was observed over clinical symptoms and USG reports. Ayurvedic remedies were used to treat the patient for 3 months. This case study demonstrates the efficacy of Ayurvedic treatment for cholelithiasis (Pittashmari). The study reached the conclusion that Ayurvedic therapy was significantly effective in the treatment of cholelithiasis (Pittashmari).

Published: May 2024

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui peran Badan Arbitrase Syariah Nasional (BASYARNAS) dalam menyelesaikan sengketa ekonomi syariah di luar peradilan. Badan Arbitrase Syariah merupakan lembaga yang memiliki peran dalam menyelesaikan sengketa yang berprinsip syariah secara damai dengan tidak melibatkan peradilan umum. Dalam UU No. 30 tahun 1999 menyatakan bahwa Arbitrase memiliki hak dalam mengatasi masalah atau sengketa yang berkaitan dengan hukum perdata, seperti ekonomi, bisnis, keuangan, perdagangan, serta industri-industri yang menggunakan prinsip syariah. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dan menggunakan pendekatan studi Pustaka (library research) dengan menganalisis dokumen, data, informasi yang berkaitan dengan BASYARNAS. Penelitian ini menghasilkan bahwa peran BASYARNAS sangat penting dalam menyelesaikan sengketa ekonomi syariah terutama dalam dunia perbankan syariah namun masih belum optimal karena terdapat beberapa kendala, yaitu penyelesaian sengketa ekonomi syariah oleh BASYARNAS dibatasi dengan adanya klausul perjanjian para pihak yang memuat perjanjian penyelesaian sengketa oleh BASYARNAS, adanya kesulitan dalam eksekusi putusan karena adanya kewenangan yang tumpang tindih antaran Peradilan Agama dan Pengadilan Negeri dan adanya potensi pembatalan putusan BASYARNAS dalam memutus perkara sengketa ekonomi syariah.

Published: May 2024

O presente trabalho visa a entender como a liberdade de expressão deve ser exercida de modo a respeitar os ditames eleitorais para que não se torne fake news e, assim, não interferir na legitimidade do processo eleitoral. Para tanto, foram analisados conceitos de liberdade de expressão, de propaganda eleitoral, como também de fake news, fazendo-se relações com a contemporaneidade através de um estudo comparativo com normas constitucionais, jurisprudências de tribunais, doutrina especializada, bem como com a legislação eleitoral vigente. O método utilizado foi o dedutivo, com abordagem qualitativa, por meio de renomada revisão bibliográfica e análise de conteúdo. Conclui-se, portanto, que a ocorrência das fake news, derivada do abuso da liberdade de expressão no processo eleitoral, degrine a legitimidade do pleito, causando graves prejuízos à democracia.
Using regional relaxation experiments to understand the development of errors in the Asian summer monsoon
Authors: Martin Gill M. , Rodríguez José M. 
Published: May 2024

Abstract. We describe the use of regional relaxation (“nudging”) experiments carried out in initialised hindcasts to shed light on the contribution from particular regions to the errors developing in the Asian summer monsoon. Results so far confirm previous hypotheses that errors in the Maritime Continent region contribute substantially to the East Asia summer monsoon (EASM) circulation errors through their effects on the western North Pacific subtropical high. Locally forced errors over the Indian region also contribute to the EASM errors. Errors arising over the Maritime Continent region also affect the circulation and sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Indian Ocean region, contributing to a persistent error pattern resembling a positive Indian Ocean dipole phase. This is associated with circulation errors over India and the strengthening and extension of the westerly jet across southeast Asia and the South China Sea into the western Pacific, thereby affecting the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) circulation and rainfall patterns as a whole. However, errors developing rapidly in the deeper equatorial Indian Ocean, apparently independently of the atmosphere errors, are also contributing to this bias pattern. Preliminary analysis of nudging increments over the Maritime Continent region suggests that these errors may at least partly be related to deficiencies in the convection and boundary layer parameterisations.
