Recycled Aggregates (Recycled Sand) From High-Performance Concrete, Mechanical Strength Study
Authors: RENNAK Zohra 
Published: June 2023

High Performance Concrete (HPB) is an innovative concrete that finds its place in modern constructions. New techniques for formulating and designing high-performance concrete have improved durability and achieved outstanding mechanical properties compared to conventional concrete, acause thanks to the improvement of its rheological qualities and its very limited porosity.
This has allowed to expand his field of employment especially in aggressive environments. Natural aggregates, frequently used, are now a non-renewable resource whose accessibility is continually declining.
Recycling of High Performance Concrete (HPC) waste in the form of recycled aggregates in the manufacture of a new range of high-performance recycled concrete with improved properties will lead to an understanding between performance and cost in order to achieve a resistant material with durability increased.
The aim of this study is to identify and analyse the characteristics of high performance recycled concrete aggregates based on two types of mineral additions (silica smoke, slag) which influence the properties of the concrete in a fresh and hardened state.
This study highlights the effects of substitution of natural aggregates by recycled aggregates (30% sand and gravel 25%, 50%, 100%) on the mechanical resistance of recycled high-performance concrete.
Examination of the results obtained has made it possible to establish the correlations between natural and recycled aggregates and on the physico-mechanical characteristics.
The analysis of these results also showed the interest of total or partial substitution of recycled aggregates based on silica smoke compared to recycled aggregates based on Algerian slag in the formulation of High Performance Recycled Concrete (HPRC) from the point of view of mechanical performance (strength).

AIM: to assess late results of parastomal hernia repair using Sugarbaker’s technique modifications.PATIENTS AND METHODS: prospective non-randomised study included 60 patients with parastomal hernia, which underwent surgery in 2013-2019. Patients were divided in two groups. The control group included 30 patients with “classic” Sugabacker method, the main group included 30 patients with Sugarbaker’s procedure added by suture of abdominal wall defect. Both groups were homogenous by age, gender, hernia size, type of primal disease and preoperative quality of life (EQ-5D-5L). The efficacy of the treatment was estimated by recurrence rate and quality of life 1 and 2 years after surgery.RESULTS: the recurrence rate in the main group was significantly lower after 1 and 2 years (3 vs 13; p = 0.01). Quality of life in the main group was significantly higher after the first year of follow-up (the median of the weighted coefficient 0.92 vs 0.89; p = 0.04) and this trend has preserved 2 years after surgery.CONCLUSION: suture of abdominal wall defect in Sugarbaker’s procedure for parastomal hernia reduces recurrence rate significantly and provides better quality of life.

BackgroundPatients with Cushing’s disease (CD) in remission maintain an increased cardiovascular risk. Impaired characteristics of gut microbiome (dysbiosis) have been associated with several cardiometabolic risk factors.MethodsTwenty-eight female non-diabetic patients with CD in remission with a mean ± SD) age of 51 ± 9 years, mean ( ± SD) BMI, 26 ± 4, median (IQR) duration of remission, 11(4) years and 24 gender-, age, BMI–matched controls were included. The V4 region of the bacterial 16S rDNA was PCR amplified and sequenced to analyse microbial alpha diversity (Chao 1 index, observed number of species, Shannon index) and beta diversity analysis through the Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) of weighted and unweighted UniFrac distances. Inter-group difference in microbiome composition was analysed using MaAsLin2.ResultsThe Chao 1 index was lower in CD as compared with controls (Kruskal-Wallis test, q = 0.002), indicating lower microbial richness in the former. Beta diversity analysis showed that faecal samples from CS patients clustered together and separated from the controls (Adonis test, p&lt;0.05). Collinsella, a genus form of the Actinobacteria phylum was present in CD patients only, whereas Sutterella, a genus from Proteobacteria phylum, was scarcely detectable/undetectable in CD patients as well as Lachnospira, a genus of the Lachnospiraceae family of the Firmicutes phylum. In CS, the Chao 1 index was associated with fibrinogen levels and inversely correlated with both triglyceride concentrations and the HOMA-IR index (p&lt;0.05).ConclusionsPatients with CS in remission have gut microbial dysbiosis which may be one of the mechanisms whereby cardiometabolic dysfunctions persist after “cure”.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and liver enzymes with the incidence of microvascular complications (neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy) in a cohort of Iranian patients with type 2 diabetes.MethodsFor a total population of 3123 patients with type 2 diabetes, a prospective study was designed for 1215 patients with NAFLD and 1908 gender and age-matched control patients without NAFLD. The two groups were followed for a median duration of 5 years for the incidence of microvascular complications. The association between having NAFLD, the level of liver enzymes, aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI), Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) value, and the incidence risk of diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy were assessed through logistic regression analysis.ResultsNAFLD was found to be associated with incidence of diabetic neuropathy and nephropathy (Odds ratio: 1.338 (95% confidence interval: 1.091-1.640) and 1.333 (1.007-1.764), respectively). Alkaline-phosphatase enzyme was found to be associated with higher risks of diabetic neuropathy and nephropathy ((Risk estimate: 1.002 (95% CI: 1.001-1.003) and 1.002 (1.001-1.004), respectively)). Moreover, gamma-glutamyl transferase was associated with a higher risk of diabetic nephropathy (1.006 (1.002-1.009). Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were inversely associated with the risk of diabetic retinopathy (0.989 (0.979-0.998) and 0.990 (0.983-0.996), respectively). Furthermore, ARPI_T (1), ARPI_T (2), and ARPI_T (3) were shown to be associated with NAFLD (1.440 (1.061-1.954), 1.589 (1.163-2.171), and 2.673 (1.925, 3.710), respectively). However, FIB-4 score was not significantly associated with risk of microvascular complications.ConclusionDespite the benign nature of NAFLD, patients with type 2 diabetes should be always assessed for NAFLD to ensure early diagnosis and entry into proper medical care. Regular screenings of microvascular complications of diabetes is also suggested for these patients.
