Finite Element Analysis of the Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) With Epoxy Resin
Authors: Dashrathbhai Ahirwal Rahul , Chhalotre Dr. Sanjay 
Published: July 2023

The class of materials known as carbon fibre or graphite reinforced polymers is one in which carbon fibre is most frequently employed to strengthen composite materials. The matrix for carbon fibres can also be made of non-polymer materials. Carbon has had very modest success in metal matrix composite applications because of the development of metal carbides and concerns about corrosion. In high-temperature applications, reinforced carbon-carbon (RCC), which is made of graphite reinforced with carbon fibres, is employed structurally.

The use of CFRP has grown since its inception because it provides classic metals like cast iron with considerably improved characteristics at a lower weight. Due to its unparalleled potential, this discovery has emerged as the new spearhead of material technology. In this study, the relationship between variations in the fibre mass and CFRP characteristics is examined. The test is conducted using ASTM standard test specimens and software from Ansys 2022 R1. Evaluating equivalent stress, strain, and total deformation of the composite under the same load is the main goal of this research.
Probability on Submetric Spaces
Authors: Jakubowski Adam 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
A submetric space is a topological space with continuous metrics, generating a metric topology weaker than the original one (e.g. a separable Hilbert space with the weak topology).
We demonstrate that on submetric spaces there exists a theory of convergence in probability, in law etc. equally effective as the Probability Theory on metric spaces. In the theory on submetric spaces the central role is played by a version of the Skorokhod almost sure representation, proved by the author some 25 years ago and in 2010 rediscovered by specialists in stochastic partial differential equations in the form of “stochastic compactness method”.

Abstract
Currently, coccidiostats are the primary and standard method of combating coccidiosis in poultry farms. However, consumer organizations still point to the need to phase out all chemotherapeutic substances from animal nutrition to protect human health. The research material consisted of 720 cocks of the Cobb 500 hybrid, which were divided into three groups (C – coccidiostat/control, V – vaccine, and H – herbals). The following parameters were analyzed: body weight (BW), feed conversion ratio (FCR), mortality, foot pad dermatitis (FPD), European Production Efficiency Factor (EPEF), and the number of oocysts per 1g of feces (OPG). On day 42, the BW of the C group was higher compared with the V and H groups. The C group was also characterized by the best FCR and the highest EPEF. In the V group, oocysts were noted in feces from the 14th day of rearing, and the highest oocysts content was observed on the 21st day of life. In the C and H groups, the highest number of oocysts was recorded in the feces on the 28th day. The investigated alternative methods to coccidiostats showed good antiparasitic potential. Therefore, combining a couple of anticoccidiosis methods in preventive programs may be the best solution in broiler chickens production.

Abstract
In a healthy physiological state, the mucous membrane of the oral cavity creates a suitable environment for the colonization of Candida spp. yeasts. The aim of the study was to analyze the nanomechanical properties of C. albicans cells derived from the oral cavity of healthy people in a biofilm produced in laboratory conditions. Candida spp. were sampled from the oral cavity of healthy individuals. The process of biofilm formation was analyzed using classic microscopic observation enriched with SEM (scanning electron microscope) and the nanomechanical properties of the cells were assessed with the use of the atomic force microscopy technique (AFM). From all isolated strains in the samples collected of the oral cavity healthy people was detected 79% C. albicans. Other isolated species belonged to the group „non-albicans”. The observations of C. albicans carried out in 24-h cultures revealed a tendency of the cells to form a biofilm structure with multilayer cell systems. The diameter of C. albicans cells in this structure was 5.75 µm, and the length of the pseudohyphae was 17.08 µm. The presence of an extracellular substance surrounding the C. albicans cells was detected. The mean value of the adhesion force determined for C. albicans cells was 4.01 nN. Areas with increased hardness (Force Modulation Mode signal; FMM signal) were found mainly in the zones of cells in contact with the glass substrate. The analysis of Candida cells in liquid samples gives satisfactory results, as it prevents unfavorable changes in the cell surface and thus provides more reliable results. The quality of the biofilm is probably related to the nanomechanical properties of C. albicans cells and may consequently contribute to the stability of the biofilm structures and their susceptibility or resistance to antifungal drugs.
The presence of Candida spp. especially in companion animals (dogs, cats) poses a risk of their transmission to the human organism. For this reason, it is advisable to undertake additional research to analyze the ability of zoonotic-origin Candida spp. to form biofilms with comparison of the biofilm-formation capacity of species isolated from humans.

Published: July 2023

Abstract

Background
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) precisely and non-invasively delivers ablative radiation dose to tumors in early-stage lung cancer patients who are not candidates for surgery or refuse it. The aim of research was to evaluate local control, overall survival (OS), local progression free survival (LPFS), distant metastases free survival (DMFS), disease free survival (DFS) and toxicity in early-stage lung cancer patients treated with SBRT in a single tertiary cancer centre.

Patients and methods
We retrospectively evaluated medical records and radiation treatment plan parameters of 228 tumors irradiated in 206 early-stage lung cancer patients between 2016 and 2021 at the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana.

Results
After 25 months of median follow up, 68 of 206 (33%) patients died. Median OS was 46 months (CI 36–56), 1-year, 2-year and 3-year OS were 87%, 74% and 62% and 5-year OS was 31%. A total of 45 disease progressions have been identified in 41 patients. Local progress only was noticed in 5 (2%) patients, systemic progress in 32 (16%) and combined systemic and local in 4 (2%) patients. Local control rate (LCR) at 1 year was 98%, at 2 and 3 years 96% and 95% at 5 years. The 1-, 2- and 3-year LPFS were 98%, 96% and 94%, respectively and 5-year LPFS was 82%. One, 2-, 3- and 5-year DFS were 89%, 81%, 72% and 49%, respectively. Among 28 toxicities recorded only one was Grade 4 (pneumonitis), all others were Grade 1 or 2. No differences in LCR, LPFS, DFS were found in univariate analysis comparing patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics. For OS the only statistically significant difference was found in patients with more than 3 comorbidities compared to those with less comorbidities.

Conclusions
Early lung cancer treated with SBRT at single tertiary cancer centre showed that LCR, LPFS, DFS, DMFS and OS were comparable to published studies. Patients with many comorbidities had significantly worse overall survival compared to those with less comorbidities. No other significant differences by patient, tumor, or treatment characteristics were found for DMFS, LPFS, and DFS. Toxicity data confirmed that treatment was well tolerated.

Abstract
Synovial sarcoma is a rare and high-grade soft tissue tumour that rarely affects the head and neck region. Approximately 90% of synovial sarcomas are seen in the extremities. About 5 to 10% occur in the head and neck region with high incidences in the parapharyngeal space and hypopharynx. In the oral cavity, synovial sarcoma has been reported in the buccal mucosa, tongue, floor of the mouth, the retromolar region, hard and soft palates, the gingivobuccal sulcus and the mandible. In this paper, we report 4 very rare cases of monophasic synovial sarcoma of the oral cavity and highlight the need for proper diagnosis and treatment plan in the cases of synovial sarcoma. So far, around 250 cases of synovial sarcoma of head and neck have been reported in the literature. In India, on extensive literature search we could retrieve 18 cases of synovial sarcoma involving the head and neck region, of these 11 cases of primary synovial sarcoma involving the oral cavity have been reported previously. To our knowledge, this is the first series of primary synovial sarcoma of the oral cavity in the Indian literature.
Anaesthesiologic and intensive care particularities in cervical surgery
Authors: Zoican Olimpia Iulia , Sarafoleanu Codrut 
Published: July 2023

Abstract

BACKGROUND. Endotracheal intubation is frequently used to maintain airways proper functioning during elective surgical operations, in intensive care and in emergency rooms. The pathology of the oropharyngeal and laryngeal area or that of the cervical area induces, in most cases, changes in the airways, especially in the sense of their narrowing or deviation. The presence of tumors on the oro-pharyngo-laryngeal axis, some bleeding easily spontaneously or upon touch, can make the anaesthetic procedure difficult.

MATERIAL AND METHODS. We conducted a prospective, observational study on 50 patients with cervical pathology who required general anaesthesia during 2019-2021. The criteria and parameters analysed for predicting difficult intubation were the duration of orotracheal or nasotracheal intubation, difficult face mask ventilation, Cormack-Lehane and Mallampati scores, anthropometric determinations of various cervical landmarks, including the thyromental distance, the distance between the arytenoid cartilages and the distance from the plane of the arytenoid cartilages to the skin, both of the latter determined ultrasonographically.

RESULTS. The following statistically significant differences emerge from the study: the duration of orotracheal intubation (p<0.001), the difficulty of face mask ventilation (p<0.001), the intercondylar distance (p=0.042), the intermastoid distance (p=0.023), the Cormack-Lehane score (p=0.013), the Mallampati score (p=0.004), the distance between the arytenoid cartilages (p=0.007), the distance between the plane of the arytenoid cartilages and the skin (p<0.001). All were increased in patients with tumoral pathology.

CONCLUSION. The study demonstrates the variation of new criteria and parameters that can be analysed for the prediction of a difficult airway, identifies the efficiency of using ultrasound whenever possible in the preanesthetic evaluation of the airway, and quantifies the risk of difficulty in airway management based on anthropometric data, particularly through the occurrence of asymmetry at the cervical or facial level.

Published: July 2023

The SMAW process is a commonly used metal joining method because it is very practical in its use, less cost, and easy availability of equipment. The SMAW process is also easy to operate and can be used in all welding positions. The problem that often occurs in steel construction lies in the welded joints. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the mechanical properties by adding nickel(Ni) to the welded joints. In this research, electrodes E 6013 and steel of ASTM A 36 was used. The tensile tests, bending tests, hardness tests, macrostructure, and microstructure will be carried out to see changes in mechanical properties. The addition of Ni contributes well to mechanical properties. The tensile strength, face bending, side bending, and hardness increased by 27.6%, 14.5%, 4.8%, and 20.9%, respectively. In the observation of the macrostructure, the porosity was not visible in all samples, while in the microstructure observation, ferrite and pearlite phases were formed in all samples.

Background. Acetylcysteine (ACC) is an effective antidote for paracetamol poisoning. There are various schemes for its application. At the same time, there is currently no information about the most priority of them in this pathology. Few studies indicate the effectiveness of the 12-hour protocol for ACC administration in paracetamol poisoning. However, there were not enough justifications for the introduction of a modified 12-hour scheme into world practice.The objective was to compare the effectiveness of the 12-hour and 21-hour protocols for the administration of acetylcysteine in paracetamol poisoning.Materials and methods. 43 patients with acute paracetamol poisoning were examined. The study group (prospective) consisted of 23 patients who underwent the 12-hour ACC protocol; the comparison group (retrospective) with the 21-hour ACC protocol included 20 patients. Groups were comparable. The endpoints were: ALT blood level, the frequency of allergic reactions, the duration of treatment in the ICU, the duration of stay in the hospital.Results. The 12-hour and 21-hour protocols for intravenous administration of ACC in case of paracetamol poisoning are equally effective in preventing liver damage, as evidenced by the results of the study: in both groups, when the antidote was started early (in the first 8 hours), there was no increase in ALT levels. The use of the 12-hour protocol for intravenous administration of ACC leads to a reduction in the duration of stay in the ICU by 1.5 times (p = 0.001), the duration of hospital treatment by 1.3 times (p = 0.052) compared to the 21-hour protocol. The frequency of allergic reactions during the 21-hour protocol of ACC administration was 10%; with the 12-hour ACC scheme, no allergic reactions were noted.Conclusions. The data obtained show that both protocols for the administration of ACC, when used early, are equally effective in preventing toxic liver damage, while the administration of ACC according to the 12-hour protocol leads to fewer adverse reactions, a reduction in the duration of stay in the ICU and the duration of hospitalization.
