The objectives were to assess the status of pollution on local dyeing areas, the occupational hazard associated with this activity and the impact on the residents of the area. Parameters such as pH, coli form bacteria, conductivity, colour, DO, BOD, COD, chlorides, total available nitrogen, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury and alkalinity were determined and statistical analysis carried out to evaluate the Significant difference of pollutants in the area studied.
Environmental Impact of Heavy Metals
Authors: Mudassir Usman Muhammad , Shuaibu Bala Shamsu , Hamza K. 
Published: October 2023

Heavy metals cause toxicity in biological systems by bonding to Sulfhydryl groups and producing reactive oxygen species (ROS). Many international organizations established a standard regarding the presence of heavy metals in the environment, food, and drinking water as a result of numerous harmful effects on humans and animals observed. This study aimed to determine the level of heavy metal concentrations and water quality in the Romi River, where some heavy metals concentrations (Iron 0.89 mg/L and Nickel 0.36 mg/L) exceeded the WHO maximum standard limits (Nickel 0.02 mg/L and 0.030 mg/L). The mean concentrations of the metal’s chromium, iron, nickel, and zinc with standard deviation were found to be: 0.100.1 mg/L, 0.890.1 mg/L, 0.060.1 mg/L, and 0.200.1 mg/L, respectively. This study revealed that the contamination occurs as a results of effluents release into the river thereby causing many harmful effect to the community around them.
HBV and HCV Infection Prophylaxis in Liver Transplant Recipients
Authors: Mihăilă Mariana , Mădălina Pascu Cristina , Andrunache Andreea , Ștefan Ghenea Cătălin 
Published: October 2023

Liver transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with liver cirrhosis caused by viruses (HCV, HBV, and HBV + HDV) in end-stage liver disease. However, liver transplantation is complicated by the risk of recurrent infection, which significantly affects the graft and patient survival, the main risk factor for the development of recurrent viral infection being the viral load at the time of transplant. The development of antiviral drugs and effective prophylactic regimens using hepatitis B immunoglobulins have significantly improved hepatitis B outcomes after liver transplantation. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reinfection after liver transplantation (LT) may favor the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and combination therapy with hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) and nucleoside/nucleotide analog may reduce HBV recurrence after LT. In patients transplanted for HCV infection due to the availability of direct-acting antivirals, the survival of transplanted patients is comparable to that of transplants performed for alcoholic liver disease and even better than the survival evaluated in patients with hemochromatosis or hepatitis B infection. However, current approaches continue to be hampered by the extremely high cost of treatment and the emergence of drug-resistant viral mutations.
Combining Modern Pharmacology with Integrative Medicine: A Biopsychosocial Model for Comprehensive Pain Care
Authors: Mazic De Sonis Agnes 
Published: October 2023

The medical community recognized last decennia the multidimensional nature of pain and proposed multimodal biopsychosocial management. The most compelling reason to embrace integrative pain strategies is to mitigate patient risk. For patients with chronic pain and pain refractory to conservative medicine, it is essential to assess all factors involved with the chronicity. With significant themes, nutrition and microbiome, neuroplasticity, homeostasis, and the side effects of medication, acupuncture has progressively gained a place in this multimodal evaluation. Therapeutic multimodality approaches the perspective of physiological rehabilitation and chronobiological improvement of the quality of life. Illustrated by various clinical situations, the objective of management is to seek a synergy in the mechanisms of action of treatments to improve quality of life and reduce the need for xenobiotics and, consequently, the side effects. The mechanism of action of integrative medicine, and acupuncture improved with a better understanding of genetics, and epigenetics. As opposed to sham and placebo, acupuncture activates other brain regions. In controlled trials, the strict inclusion and exclusion criteria result in the treatment of a “selected” patient population, which is not always comparable to the patients seen in daily practice. The integrative approach is better illustrated by case reports.
Sustainability and Rural Livelihood Security Based on Biomass Gasification: An Assessment
Authors: Singh Saimbhi Varinder 
Published: October 2023

The applications of gasification products comprise impending use as process output that can be converted into mechanical, electrical and/or heat energy use in several industries and sectors including rural households. Different types of agricultural and forestry residues, energy crops, dairy-house, piggery, poultry, domestic and industrial wastes can be used as feedstock. With or without pre-treatment, the feedstock biomass can be gasified under different technological conditions viz. in a biochemical digester (biogas plant) or in a thermal digester (gasifiers), to find out what are the most suitable conditions for maximum energy outputs. Rural livelihood safety by the use of biogas plants was also assessed. The savings in fuel, overall family income, living cost, a slurry of biogas plants used as manure, and reduction of greenhouse gases at the domestic level were also studied. Overall annual family income varied from Indian Rupee (INR) 2,50,000–27,50,000. Annual livelihood cost was averaged at INR 1,66,714 and 1,83,529, respectively, with and without the usage of biogas plants. Biogas plant usage helped families save INR 10,295 (with savings of 1389 kg of fuel wood and nine cooking gas cylinders). Biogas plant usage also prevented methane (755 kg) and ammonia (267 kg) gas emissions annually.
Infectious Keratitis after Surgery
Authors: Haber Olguin Alberto , Raúl Vera Duarte Guillermo , Antonio García Padilla Luis 
Published: October 2023

Although infectious keratitis after refractive surgery is rare, it is of great importance due to its great devastating power. The most important etiology of infectious keratitis after refractive surgery is: Staphylococcus epidermidis. The risk factors associated with the development of infectious keratitis are divided into: pre-surgical, intra-surgical and post-surgical. The time of onset of symptoms after refractive surgery is one of the most important antecedents associated with the causative microorganism. Less than 7 days is considered “early onset”. After 7 days of “late onset.” The initiation of empirical treatment is recommended in the case of early onset of symptoms with 4th generation fluoroquinolone alternated with fortified cefazolin. In the case of late onset (more than 7 days after surgery), start with 4th generation fluoroquinolone alternating with Amikacin as well as oral doxycycline. At the end of the surgery, it is recommended to apply a drop of moxifloxacin. Regarding post-surgical measures, the time of contact lens use should be limited, avoid contaminated environments and administer antibiotics for a period of 7–10 days, or until the epithelial defect has been completely resolved.

Representation of solutions of a second order delay differential equation
Authors: Qiu Kee , Wang Jinrong 
Published: October 2023

In this article, we study an inhomogeneous second order delay differential equation on the fractal set \(\mathbb{R}^{\alpha n}\) \((0<\alpha\leq 1)\), based on the theory of local calculus. We introduce delay cosine and sine type matrix functions and give their properties on the fractal set. We give the representation of solutions to second order differential equations with pure delay and two delays.

Applying artificial neural network and binary logistic models to predict propensity to pay cash dividend: Evidence from an emerging market
Authors: Ndidi Asien Etumudon 
Published: October 2023

This study examines the predictors of the propensity to pay cash dividend including industry structure, natural log of revenue, firm size, big 4 auditors, and financial leverage. The paper draws upon the theory of uncertain binary choice. Pooled unbalanced panel logistic regression and artificial neural network were used to analyze data of 725 firm-year observations obtained from companies’ annual accounts and financial statements from 2012 to 2021. The documented results find that industry structure, natural log of revenue (big 4 auditors, firms’ size and financial leverage) significantly influence the propensity to pay (not to pay) cash dividend. The result on the interaction term shows that industry structure and log revenue has the propensity to significantly predict non-payment of cash dividend. Nagelkerke pseudo R2 indicates that the predictors explain about 36% of variability in payment of cash dividend. The ROC-curves indicate good model fits as areas under the curve are up to .85. We recommend that the management of listed companies and equity stockholders who are interested in dividend payment should consider the history of industry structure and companies’ revenue while those not interested in dividend payment should consider company size, the presence of big 4 auditors and financial leverage.
Keywords: Cash dividends, Industry structure, Independent
Faktor-Faktor yang Berhubungan Dengan Persalinan Seksio Caesarea di Rumah Sakit Budi Kemuliaan Tahun 2020
Authors: Erina Windiany  , Soebrata Evita Salamah , Rifki Mohammad 
Published: October 2023

Latar Belakang: Berdasarkan hasil riset kesehatan dasar (Riskesdas) di Indonesia tahun 2018, menunjukkan prevalensi tindakan persalinan dengan seksio caesarea adalah 17,6 %, tertinggi di wilayah DKI Jakarta (31,3%) dan terendah di Papua (6,7%). Menurut WHO, angka persalinan dengan seksio caesarea maksimum 10 - 15% pertahun, oleh karena itu perlu dikaji pengambilan keputusan melakukan tindakan seksio caesarea berdasarkan indikasi dan prinsip-prinsip etika kesehatan. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan persalinan seksio caesarea di Rumah Sakit Budi Kemuliaan Tahun 2020.
Metode Penelitian: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dengan metode cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh ibu yang bersalin di Rumah Sakit Budi Kemuliaan sejak tanggal 1 Januari 2020 - 31 Desember 2020 sebanyak 3923 orang, dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 363 orang, pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik simple random sampling dengan menggunakan data sekunder rekam maedis pasien.
Hasil Penelitian: Faktor yang berhubungan dengan persalinan seksio caesarea adalah riwayat SC (p-value = 0,000), partus lama (p-value = 0,000), KPD (p-value = 0,000), gagal induksi (p-value = 0,000). Agar jumlah sectio caesarea dapat dikendalikan, maka asuhan antenatal yang baik untuk ibu primipara dan asuhan keluarga berencana untuk multiparitas perlu dilakukan, serta deteksi dini dan pelayanan asuhan kebidanan yang optimal pada ibu hamil untuk memperkecil komplikasi saat persalinan
