Authors: Gupta Mehak , Taneja Divya , Salklan Mitali Madhu , Gontiya Ritu 
Published: December 2022

Objectives:Students in homoeopathic colleges must be oriented towards intellectual disability (intellectual developmental disorder – ID/IDD) from the homoeopathic and medical perspectives; moreover, they should have a basic understanding of the social, ethical and legal implications of this condition. The objective of this study was to identify the knowledge, attitudes and level of awareness of homoeopathic students regarding IDDs using a standardised questionnaire.Materials and Methods:A survey of undergraduate and postgraduate students of Bakson Homoeopathic Medical College, Greater Noida was undertaken using NIMH – GEM questionnaire. Responses to the 30 statements in the questionnaire were calculated to determine the overall mean score, which was compared between sexes and the graduate and postgraduate levels. Responses to individual questions were analysed to identify the areas of low knowledge and awareness.Results:A total of 143 undergraduate and postgraduate students participated; 30 were male and 113 were female. The mean participant score was 6.22 +3.18 (95% confidence interval 5.69–6.75), suggesting a good level of awareness among the students. Significantly, a higher score was seen in the male students than in the female students. There was no significant difference between the scores of undergraduate and postgraduate students.Conclusion:While most students have a high level of understanding and awareness of IDD, certain areas from the rehabilitation perspective need to be explored further, specifically relating to the extent of independent activity that patients with IDD can attain with rehabilitation and care.

Objective:
COVID-19 pandemic has affected the provision of psychiatric care across the world and the elderly have been the most disadvantaged. Psychological stress in them is not only due to excess mortality risk but also due to restrictions instituted to mitigate the chances of contracting COVID. The current pandemic is likely to lead to substantial changes in the health-care services as it has shown the need for improved multidisciplinary and community- centered care. The purpose of this paper is to address the challenges faced while implementing a multidisciplinary structured programme for the mental well-being in residents of old age home and assess the role played by the sustainable multidisciplinary structured interventions to alleviate the psychological suffering. The old age home in the study is situated in a remote area of Palghar district. Availing of required medical health-care facility during a pandemic was a challenge in itself, where delivering the multidisciplinary intervention for mental well-being was a much needed and never tested in such a setup.

Material and Methods:
Primary screening and knowledge of acute and chronic stressors revealed the current status of emotional wounds and hence the emotional sensitivity of the group. Scales (generalised anxiety disorder [GAD-7], patient health questionnaires [PHQ-2] and dementia assessment by rapid test [DART]) were employed to evaluate intensity of anxiety, depressive symptoms and dementia. Techniques to deal with distress demonstrated in each session were based on action learning principles. Structured group interventions were done through relevant videos, group discussions, relaxation techniques, meditation and physical exercise by the team of homoeopathic physicians, psychologist and physiotherapist. Results were subjected to statistical analysis.

Results:
There was a statistically significant reduction in anxiety following intervention, z = −3.886, P < 0.001, with a large effect size (r =.57). The median score on the anxiety decreased from 10 to 4 in a span of 10 months. No significant improvement was found in physical health and cognitive impairment.

A series of dust storms stroked Iraq from April to May 2022. These abnormal environmental events hold and transfer microorganisms far from their original sites. Mycobiome is a main part of the aerobiological aerosol, it includes agents of respiratory harm, opportunistic mycosis, as well as mycotoxin producers. 32 Petri dishes were exposed to the falling down dust for two days (S1). The time of exposure was 10 minutes per hour, a total of 8 samples/ day since 9:00 am. Sabouraud’s dextrose agar and pollen grains agar media were used. Sampling was identically repeated after two days during a calm climate (S2). Fungal genera, frequency%, and total similarity% were calculated for S1 and S2 samples.
257 colonies (143CFU/m3) occurred in (S1) samples, in contrast, a total of 110 colonies from (S2) samples (59CFU/m3). The statistical analysis showed a highly significant difference between CFU for S1and S2 (p≤0.0001). Fifteen isolates were identified from (S1), and (5) from (S2). The highest occurrence O% and frequency F% genera in S1 were, Aspergillus (65-6%; 15.9%), Alternaria (56.6%;11.2%), Cladosporium (46.8%; 13.6%), Penicillium(37.5%;8.1%), besides sterile mycelia, while in S2 were (40.6%; 30.6%) ; (25.0%; 17.2%); (32.0%; 26.3%) (34.3 %; 12.7%) respectively. The similarity between the fungal communities of the two times was low =35.7%.
Results showed that air mycobiota on stormy days have a higher fungal abundance and diversity. All isolated fungi are adverse to humans, and animals. Individuals who have respiratory problems or with weak immunity showed careful to protect themselves.

Authors: Obeid Rawaa S , Khalaf Muna S 
Published: December 2022

Background: To investigate the effect of different types of storage media on enamel surface microstructure of avulsed teeth by using atomic force microscope.Materials and methods : Twelve teeth blocks from freshly extracted premolars for orthodontic treatment were selected . The study samples were divided into three groups according to type of storage media :A-egg white , B- probiotic yogurt , and C-bovine milk . All the samples were examined for changes in surface roughness and surface granularity distribution using atomic force microscope, at two periods: baseline, and after 8 hours of immersing in the three types of storage media. Results: Milk group had showed a significant increase in the mean of the roughness values at the test period, while the egg white and the probiotic yogurt groups showed decrease in the surface roughness at the test period. No significant changes was found in the grain size of enamel surface of the avulsed tooth in any types of three storage media at eight hours interval. The use of egg white and probiotic yogurt to store the samples may be beneficial in that they contain various ions and proteins that fill up enamel valleys, while the longer periods of milk exposure encourage the bacteria to continue fermenting lactose, resulting in continual acid generation and increased demineralization. Conclusion : Milk group demonstrated the highest roughness values, while the egg white group demonstrated the lowest roughness values of the teeth. No significant changes in the grain size of enamel surface of the tested teeth in any types of three storage media at eight hours interval .

Published: January 2023

Peygamberimiz’in Mescid-i Haram’dan Mescid-i Aksa’ya yolculuğu, oradan da Allah katına çıkarak Mekke’ye geri dönmesi mucizesini genelde didaktik bir tarzda ve müstakil olarak anlatan Mirâciyeler, bazen de Divânlar veya Hz. Peygamber’i konu edinen edebi türler içinde (Nat, Mevlid, Hilye vs.) yer almıştır.
9. yüzyıldan itibaren edebiyatımızda manzum/mensur olarak yer almaya başlayan bu eserler, Kaside ve Mesnevî tarzında karşımıza çıkarlar.
Çalışmamıza konu olan Mirâciye’nin de içinde bulunduğu Divân 1280(1863) yılında İstanbul’da taşbaskıyla basılıp yayınlanmıştır. Bir nüshası Süleymaniye Kütüphanesi Tahirağa 522/4 numaradadır.
Manzum ve mensur olarak 12 eser kaleme almış olan Kâmî Efendi’nin Divânı’nda yer alan Mirâciye Esleme’l-Minhâc İlâ Selleme Evsâfi’l-Mi‘râc başlığıyla Toplam 130 beyit tutarında ve Kaside şeklinde kaleme alınmış olup, aruzun Mefâ‘îlün Mefâ ‘îlün Mefâ‘îlün veznindedir.
Kâmî Efendi eserini yazarken ağdalı denilebilecek bir üslup kullanarak, Arapça ve Farsça kelimeleri, tamlamalar ve terkipleri sıklıkla kullanmaktan kaçınmamıştır. Bazıları neredeyse bütün mısraı kaplayan bir terkip manzumesidir:
“Naġam-sāz-ı ḥarı̇̄m-i bezm-i ḫacle Zühre-i zehrā, Şehen-şāh-ı kerem-fermā rumūz-āmuz-ı mā-evḥā, Şehen-şāh-ı serı̇̄r lı̇̄-ma‘allāh mazhar-ı levlāk, O med‘uvv-i tecelli-gāh Ḥażret-i tav‘-ı fermān-ber”
Eserde mirâciye konusunu içeren genel bilgiler özellikle mucizelerden bir kaçı (şakka’l-kamer, gittiği her yerde O’na gölgelik olan bulutlar ve Hz. Ebubekir’le beraber sığındıkları mağara girişine güvercinin yuva yapması) sanatkârane bir üslup içerisinde fakat çok da fazla detaya inilmeden aktarılmıştır.
Manzumenin son iki beytini Farsça olarak kaleme aldığı görülen Kâmî’nin zaten Farsça ve Arapça dillerine vakıf olduğu bilinmektedir.

Published: December 2022

In the challenging and volatile financial markets, an investor needs to change his financial objectives frequently, leading to a diversified portfolio of investments. The financial future of the individual investor depends on his rational decisionmaking. This research aims to evaluate various determinants of financial decision-making concerning working women in the National Capital Region, India. It examines the association of financial literacy, personal finance planning, and riskbehaviour with the financial decision-making of working females. The research also studies the different exogenous variables of financial literacy, including financial attitude (FA), financial behaviour (FB) and financial knowledge (FK). It utilises a quantitative approach for predicting relationships between the identified variables. The study is based on primary data collected through a structured questionnaire designed on a 5-point Likert scale and was analysed through a partial least square-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach. The study results suggest a positive and significant association of financial literacy and personal finance planning with financial decision-making by working women. On the other hand, risk behaviour negatively affects financial decision-making. The findings also reveal that all three exogenous variables, financial attitude, financial behaviour and financial knowledge, have a strong relationship with financial literacy. The research is relevant for individual women investing in various financial avenues to take better decisions. This study also benefits financial managers and institutions to target as women are potential investors in a developing country like India.

Intelligent Control Methodology for Smart Highway Bridge Structures Using Optimal Replicator Dynamic Controller
Authors: Momeni Z. , Bagchi A. 
Published: January 2023

Control algorithms are an essential part of effective semi-active vibration control systems used for the protection of large structures under dynamic loading. Adaptive control algorithms, which are data-driven methods, have recently been developed to replace model-based control algorithms, thus improving efficiency. The dynamic parameters of semi-actively controlled infrastructures will change after significant vibration loading. As a result, these structures require real-time, effective control actions in response to changing conditions, which classical controllers are unable to provide. To improve the efficiency of the semi-active controller, the optimal control algorithm was developed in this study. The algorithm is the integration of the replicator dynamics with an improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA), which is NSGA-II. The optimal parameters of replicator dynamics (total resources, growth rate, and fitness function), which represent the behavior of the actuators, were obtained through a multi-objective optimization process. The new control system was then used to reduce the vibrations of the isolated highway bridge, which is equipped with semi-active control devices known as MR dampers. Moreover, the current study improved the performance of the structural control system with minimum energy consumption by assigning a specific growth rate to each control device. In order to reduce the vibrations of the highway bridge, the results show that the performance of the optimal replicator controller is better than the performance of the classical control algorithms.

Numerical Analysis of Torsional Reinforcement of Concrete Beams in Unconventional by ANSYS Software
Authors: Mohammed Thaer Jasim , Breesem Khalid M. , Hussein Abeer F. 
Published: January 2023

In this study, a finite element analysis is conducted to study the behaviour of RC beams with different configurations of transverse reinforcement under torsion. These configurations of stirrups are traditional closed stirrups, circular spiral stirrups, and inclined rectangular spiral stirrups. The numerical torsional load values are compared with the experimental torsional load values from previous research. The numerical analysis determined by the ANSYS software shows a reasonable agreement with the experimental torsional load values. The numerical results demonstrate that the use of continuous rectangular spiral stirrups improved the torsional response compared to using another type of beam stirrup. Thus, numerical results show that continuous spiral stirrups are effective at increasing torsional capacity. It is also noted that the behaviour of these beams with continuous spiral stirrups is better than the behaviour of the beams with traditional stirrups. The beams with helical reinforcement, which are TB2, TB3, and TB4 spiral reinforcements, greatly enhanced the toughness. The equivalent stresses are 13.709, 13.728, 14.72, and 15.894 MPa, while the equivalent elastic strains are 0.00421, 0.00377, 0.00347, and 0.00539 mm/mm for the beams TB2, TB3, and TB4, respectively. The beam TB4 had the highest stress and strain value, so its strength improved its ductility properties. As a result, the stirrups' configurations enabled the detection of beam failure mechanisms by improving torsional behaviour when compared to the beam's traditional stirrups. As a result, this research adds more knowledge to the literature on the most effective spiral stirrups for transverse reinforcement to improve the torsional behaviour of beams.
