Questa tabella estremamente schematica Ã¨ volta al supporto mediante lo stile della check list, degli infermieri, particolarmente neoinseriti e neoassunti nelle terapie intensive. Lo scopo Ã¨ proporre uno schema il piÃ¹ sistematico possibile (ma probabilmente non esaustivo). Non vuole essere uno strumento rigido, bensÃ¬ un reminder trasversale, ed estremamente flessibile in termine di modificabilitÃ e adattabilitÃ ai diversi contesti logistico-operativi con che caratterizzano le terapie intensive polivalenti e specialistiche in generale. Chiaramente, in periodo di COVID 19, non solo alcuni interventi ricompresi non potranno esser previsti, ma probabilmente, altri dovranno esser modificati oppure addirittura posposti. Per questo motivo ho pensato ad una colonna a destra chiamata â€œPrioritÃ â€, affinchÃ¨ possa, se necessario, esser fatta una riflessione su ciÃ² che sarebbe accettabile in termine di missing nursing. Allâ€™interno degli step, lâ€™ordine con cui sono elencati le valutazioni e gli interventi, sono da intendersi non in rigoroso ordine di prioritÃ verticale, ma in generale questo diventa variabile a seconda delle situazioni contingenti cliniche e logistiche.

Published: July 2023

Introduction and Aim: Anaemia is the most common deficiency disorder among people of all age groups, known as Paandu in the Siddha system of medicine. The test drug siddha poly mineral formulation Lavana Dravagam mentioned in Siddha literature kannukamiyam ennum vaithiya segaram, has been used for pandu (anaemia). Dravagam is a form of internal medicine, processed by distillation method and is also referred as Pugai neer, Shakthi neer, Dravaga neer. The study aimed to evaluate the haematinic activity and efficacy of poly mineral Siddha formulation Lavana Dravagam against phenylhydrazine induced anaemic albino Wistar rat model.

Materials and Methods: The animals were selected and divided into four groups (I, II, III, and IV) of six rats (n=6) each. Anaemia was induced by an oral administration of phenylhydrazine (single dose of 10 mg/kg per oral for 8 days). Group I served as normal control and Group II received standard drug hematinic syrup in suspension form at dose 2 mL/kg. Groups III, IV received the formulated oral indiffusible mixture of Lavana Dravagam at a dose of 0.02ml to 0.03ml/kg respectively. RBC, Hb, PCV, MCV, MCH, were analyzed as indices of anaemia. The mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular Hb, and mean corpuscular Hb concentration were calculated.

Results: From the literature evidence, acute toxicity evaluation and pharmacological studies, the drug Lavana Dravagam is found out to have hematinic activity. This study reveals that there is significant (P<0.05) increase in RBC count, Hb level, and PCV by administering phenylhydrazine within one week of treatment.

Conclusion: It could be concluded that the drug Lavana dravagam will have promising effects in the management of anaemia (Paandu).
Radiological observations of the branches of circle of willis for surgical perception
Authors: Ravichandran Praveena , Bhat Kumar MR , Hosapatna Mamatha , L. C. Prasanna 
Published: July 2023

Introduction and Aim: The Circle of Willis (CoW) is an arterial hexagon in the interpeduncular fossa formed by the basilar and internal carotid arteries. It permits anastomotic circulation between that two-arterial system. Variations in the pattern and the calibre of the arteries that make up the CoW were common. Few noted variations include hypoplasia or aplasia of either one or both posterior or anterior communicating arteries, aplasia, or fenestrations of the anterior communicating artery. Considering the surgical importance of this arterial circle, as it allows equalization of blood flow between the two sides of the brain, this observational study was done to identify the variations in the formation pattern and the gross morphometry of CoW.

Materials and Methods: Thirty radiological images of patients undergoing neurovascular imaging for various reasons in the Department of Radiology and patients were obtained for the study.

Results: Among the 30 studied CT and MR angiographic images, 21 (73.3%) of the circles exhibit the usual pattern of CoW formation, and the remaining 9 (27.7%) showed variations. Among the 30 radiological images, 25 (83.33%) were complete circles, 4 (13.33%) were incomplete in the posterior part and 1 (3.33%) was incomplete in the anterior part of the CoW.

Conclusion: Understanding the typical formation of CoW and its variations is essential in the surgical correction of a few intracranial emergencies like hemorrhage, infarction, aneurysms, and other neurovascular surgeries of the brain.

Authors: Raja Nishanthi , Ganesan Anuradha , K. V. Swathi , A. Kannan , Chandrasekar Lakshmi Krithika 
Published: July 2023

Introduction and Aim: Prebiotics and probiotics are essential for improving overall health. Pre- and probiotics are becoming more popular in oral care products. Also, in recent years, oral medicine has been provided to them. The study's objective is to assess dental postgraduates' attitudes, knowledge, and awareness of prebiotics and probiotics for oral lesions.

Materials and Methods: A set of 20 questions related to the definition, mechanism of action, safety consideration, health benefits, and sources, and four questions to assess their attitude and practice about probiotics and prebiotics in oral lesions addressing a total number of 183 dental postgraduates were selected. Google form questionnaires were shared, and responses were received. The obtained data were statistically analyzed.

Results: Of the 183 dental postgraduates 91.3% of the dental postgraduates were aware of the use of probiotics and prebiotics in oral lesions while 92.2% were willing to prescribe them to their patients and consider them to be safe and used as an adjuvant in the management of oral lesions. Results showed limited knowledge and awareness of probiotics and prebiotics in the management of oral lesions among dental postgraduates.

Conclusion: The result indicated a lack of understanding of prebiotics and probiotics in the treatment of oral lesions. It is possible to increase knowledge of prebiotics and probiotics in oral lesions through seminars, current lectures, and including the subject in the curricula of aspiring professionals, among other methods.

Published: July 2023

Introduction: Dental caries is a significant public health issue, and its solution calls for a worldwide effort that is better coordinated and more visible. The assessment of hygiene indices enables us to collect information that is sufficiently illuminating for use in primary school students' caries prevention programs.
Methods: There were 450 students total, 231 boys and 219 girls, ages 6 to 12, from school No. 1 in Lebedinovka, Chui, a rural town, and school No. 4 in Bishkek, an urban city. EGOHID-2005 was used to determine objective indicators, or dental examination data. Dental indices were used to measure the degree of hygienic knowledge, the state of oral hygiene, and the extent and severity of plaque.
Results: It was determined that both urban and rural students had a good level of hygiene. However, in urban school No. 4, it was 1.4 times higher than in rural school No. 1, and vice versa, rural students were more likely to have a 2.2 times higher level of poor hygiene than urban students.
Conclusion: As a result, the findings are characterized by a lack of hygienic knowledge and the unhygienic state of schoolchildren's oral cavities.

Published: July 2023

Introduction and Aim: Radiation induced skin reactions (RISR) often delays the treatment affecting compliance and outcomes. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is known to recruit dermo-genic stem cells and help in healing. Very few studies are there to evaluate its potential in this regard. This study evaluates intradermal infiltration of G-CSF for its effectiveness, effect on treatment delay and quality of life in comparison to conventional treatment for grade 3/4 RISR.

Materials and Methods: Patients experiencing advanced RISR due to any regimen of external beam radiation above 50 Gy of 2 Gy equivalent doses were randomized to undergo treatment either with intradermal G-CSF infiltration at margin and bases of lesion along with conventional therapies or with only conventional anti-inflammatory/ antibiotic therapy. The experimental arm and the control arm had 62 and 60 patients respectively analyzed for time taken for re-epithelization and treatment delay. Also.pre and two weeks post-treatment global quality of life and pain scores were taken for qualitative comparison between the arms.

Results: G-CSF arm took a mean 5.2 (95percent CI=4.4-5.7) days, significantly less than conventional treatment arm (Mean=7.5 days, 95percent CI= 6.8-8.1,p=0.002) for re-epithelization. Grade of toxicity adjusted hazard ratio of non-resolution in 10 days time was 2.98 for the control arm over the experimental arm(p=.046). Treatment gap was significantly less in the G-CSF arm (48.4 percent vs 68.3percent, p=0.026), with average delay of treatment being significantly reduced (p 0.001). A ten-day delay adjusted survival was significantly better in the experimental arm (Mantel-Cox Log rank test, X2=12.26, p 0.001).

Conclusion: Intradermal perilesional G-CSF infiltration for advanced RISR hastens wound healing compared to conventional treatment and significantly reduces the chances of treatment delay.

Postsemantic Peirceanism
Authors: Iacona Andrea , Iaquinto Samuele 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
There are essentially two ways to develop the Peircean idea that future contingents are all false. One is to provide a quantificational semantics for “will,” as is usually done. The other is to define a quantificational postsemantics based on a linear semantics for “will.” As we will suggest, the second option, although less conventional, is more plausible than the first in some crucial respects. The postsemantic approach overcomes three major troubles that have been raised in connection with Peirceanism: the apparent scopelessness of “will” with respect to negation, the failure of Future Excluded Middle, and the so-called zero credence problem.

Authors:   , Celigueta Jordana Miguel Ángel 
Published: July 2023

The work presented in this Thesis is a set of developments focused on the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) and its applicability in several fields in Civil Engineering. The PFEM had already been proven to be a powerful tool for the free surface flows with large deformation and domain separation, but the application to actual engineering problems requires many more advances. The interaction between the fluid and many solids contacting with each other, the erosion of soils and the transport of small particles are some of these advances, which are main topics addressed in this document. Apart from them, other developments related with the fluid solution are included, which are intended to get deeper than ever before in the practical use of PFEM.
El treball que es presenta en aquesta Tesi és un conjunt de desenvolupaments centrats en el Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) i en la seva aplicació a diversos camps de l'enginyeria civil. El PFEM ja havia demostrat ser una eina potent pels fluxes amb superfície lliure amb grans deformacions i separació de dominis, però l'aplicació a problemes d'enginyeria reals requereix molts més avenços. La interacció entre el fluid i molts sòlids que contacten els uns amb els altres, l'erosió de sòls i el transport de partícules petites són alguns d'aquests avenços, que són els principals temes tractats en aquesta Tesi. Apart d'aquests, s'inclouen altres desenvolupaments relacionats amb la solució del fluid, que miren d'arribar més profunditat que mai abans en l'ús pràctic del PFEM i la seva implementació. Primer es presenta el PFEM, es descriuen els desenvolupaments de l'autor millorant la solució de la dinàmica de fluids i altres capacitats simples que s'hi han afegit. Després, tres capítols principals es centren en a) l'algoritme d'interacció fluid-estructura amb contacte b) l'erosió de sòls c) el transport de partícules. A continuació altres aplicacions del mètode s'expliquen, així com una llista dels projectes d'investigació amb els quals aquesta tesi ha tingut vincle.
Techno-Stress of the Faculty Members in a Higher Education Institution: Basis for a Faculty Development Program
Authors: Espiritu Cecile de Mesa 
Published: July 2023

Technology is one of the greatest inventions of humankind, which is utilized in all sectors of society. Teachers' integration of technology leads them to facilitate and enhance the teaching-learning process. Teachers must develop their competence to use these with ease and confidence. The abrupt transition to online learning has significantly changed the learning experiences. Teachers are pressured to adapt to technological trends. The inability to adapt to technology may lead to techno-stress, a modern adaptation disorder due to failure to cope with technologies. The study adopted the descriptive method with 57 full-time and 110 part-time teacher-respondents. The data were analyzed through frequency, percentage, weighted mean, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson r. The findings show that most faculty members are integrating technology into teaching activities, using it for more than 5 hours a week. They had moderate levels of techno-stress in the learning-teaching process and social and technical issue orientations, while they had low-stress levels in professional and personal orientations. There is a significant relationship between technology usage and the assessed level of techno-stress of the teacher-respondents. Counter-measures against techno-stress must be developed through a faculty development program with activities on stress, mental health issues, and technology adaptation.

Authors: Mariano Mary Shane , Escalaw Mariefe , Gallego Eder 
Published: July 2023

This research used a quasi-experimental research design during COVID-19 distance education. It utilized a comparison and experimental group of learners at Parian Elementary School, Schools Division of Calamba City. Based on the results of the study, there is evidence to support that the experimental group performed better than the comparison group in the formative test. Likewise, the result of the Independent Samples t-test result reveals a significant difference between the Posttest Mean Scores of the Comparison and Experimental groups. Hence, the hypothesis, which states no significant difference, is rejected. Further, there is an improvement in the score of the comparison group from the pretest to posttest. However, a great improvement in the mean score of the experimental group. In conclusion, the Reflective and Integrative (RAI) video lessons successfully enhance the academic performance of Grade 2 Araling Panlipunan learners. The study recommends that Education Officials and School Administrators are encouraged to support the teachers in implementing technological pedagogical innovations in delivering 21st-century quality education. They are also encouraged to conduct seminars and workshops on technological pedagogical innovation in the new normal education. Future researchers may identify and test other factors or variables that can further define the effectiveness of the RAI video lesson. Similar study may be conducted to explore the variables not included in this study, such as classroom.

AbstractLiner‐type organic conjugated molecules with 1D π‐electron delocalization present conformation‐dependent intramolecular optoelectronic behavior. Significantly different from non‐planar ones, the coplanar conformational backbone of π‐conjugated molecules can enhance intramolecular π‐electron delocalization and dominate intermolecular π‐electron coupling, which are the fundamental parameters for improving their optoelectronic properties. Herein, the effect of the formation of coplanar conformation on intermolecular packing and optoelectrical properties of liner‐type steric terfluorene (DSFX‐SFSO) toward solution‐processed deep‐blue organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) is systematically demonstrated. Firstly, uniform and continuous crystalline films based on the planar conformational DSFX‐SFSO molecules are achieved via thermal annealing at 160 °C, which can avoid microscale crystallization processing. Contrary to amorphous ones, these hierarchical crystalline films present robust deep‐blue emission with an efficiency of > 60%, due to the suppression of defect structures. More interestingly, this hierarchical crystalline film has a stable and efficient deep‐blue electroluminescence (CIE: 0.15, 0.09) without the obvious defective green‐band emission, even at 500 mA cm−2, also further confirming the excellent and perfect molecular landscape to obtain single‐chromophore excitonic behavior from single planar‐terfluorene segments. Therefore, obtaining a uniform hierarchical structure based on planar conformational molecules is an effective strategy to optimize the optoelectrical properties for optoelectronic applications.
Using 5′ 32P‐labeled Primer and Reverse Transcription to Probe RNA Structure

Published: July 2023

AbstractRNA molecules perform numerous cellular functions necessary for cell viability, some of which can depend on the RNA's structure. Therefore, it is important to study RNA structure and RNA folding to better understand the molecular basis of these functions. RNA chemical mapping strategies to elucidate RNA structural changes involve using chemical reagents that form adducts or cleave RNA. Selective 2′‐hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) measures RNA flexibility by modification of the 2′ hydroxyl groups of flexible nucleotides. These RNA adducts can be detected using 32P‐labeled primers and reverse transcription (RT) followed by PAGE analysis. This strategy can reveal the base‐paired regions of the RNA and provide insight into tertiary structure and solvent accessibility. This protocol provides a method to interrogate RNA structure using furoyl acylimidazole (FAI). © 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.Basic Protocol 1: Reverse transcription (RT) primer labeling with 32P radionuclideBasic Protocol 2: Characterization of RNA structure with radiolabeled primer and reverse transcription (RT)
