Objective:
The objective of the study was to check whether the ingenious aerosol control box is comparable to a high vacuum suction tip in controlling aerosol contamination during ultrasonic scaling in gingivitis patients.

Materials and Methods:
It is a clinical analytical research, this study was carried out on 30 sides (left/right) in 15 patients (split mouth) with biofilm-induced gingivitis (WWP 2017) patients undergoing ultrasonic scaling procedure for 15–20 min. Group A or test group (15 sides): ultrasonic scaling was done (on the left or right half of the mouth) with an ultrasonic scaler, along with ingenious aerosol box for 15–20 min. The patient was shifted to another operatory for remaining ultrasonic scaling of the other half of the mouth. Group B or control group (15 sides): ultrasonic scaling was done (on the left or right half of the mouth) with an ultrasonic scaler, along with a high vacuum suction tip for 15–20 min. On the operator’s chest, blood agar plates were positioned at 1 and 2 feet away from the operation area.

Results:
Mean colony-forming units per agar plate were significantly higher in the high vacuum suction tip group compared to the test group at patient’s chest, 1 foot distance and 2 feet distance.

Conclusion:
Using an aerosol box, health-care personnel performing ultrasonic scaling considerably reduced aerosol contamination in the operating room.

Published: July 2023

Introduction:
In face trauma, mandibular fractures are frequently seen, and 20%–60% are associated with condylar fracture. Conservative treatment has its limitations, whereas surgical treatment helps to achieve exact fragment positioning and hence mandibular ramus height and better radiologic result concerning resorption and pathologic changes to the condyle. This article describes our approach with modified Risdon incision.

Materials and Methods:
Patients admitted to our department with condylar fracture over a period of 4 years underwent clinical examination and radiological investigation. Out of the total 25 patients with condylar fractures, there were 20 extracapsular fractures involving the neck and subcondylar regions. The subcondylar fracture patients were treated with extended submandibular approach.

Results:
Out of twenty patients, two patients had isolated condyle fractures. The bilateral condylar fracture was found in two patients. Thirteen patients had fractures at the lower neck level and the remaining seven patients had a fracture at the subcondylar level. The undisplaced fracture was found in three patients, and a displaced fracture fragment was found in 12 patients, of which 4 patients had a medial override and 8 had a lateral override. The remaining five patients had a deviation of the proximal fracture fragment.

Conclusion:
Most of the low-neck and subcondylar fractures can be assessed using a posterior extension of submandibular incision and these fractures should be managed with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) to avoid complications associated with conservative management. ORIF can be managed with the use of proper retraction techniques such as reverse L retractor and the use of traction wire using simple stainless steel wires and appropriate mini-plates.

up to a
$4 \cdot 10^{-6}$
error, thereby making progress on a problem asked by Ben Green. Furthermore, we prove that a unique minimizer exists. As a corollary, we obtain improvements on the maximum size of

Improving the quality of light‐field data extracted from a hologram using deep learning
Authors: Park Dae‐youl , Park Joongki 
Published: July 2023

AbstractWe propose a method to suppress the speckle noise and blur effects of the light field extracted from a hologram using a deep‐learning technique. The light field can be extracted by bandpass filtering in the hologram's frequency domain. The extracted light field has reduced spatial resolution owing to the limited passband size of the bandpass filter and the blurring that occurs when the object is far from the hologram plane and also contains speckle noise caused by the random phase distribution of the three‐dimensional object surface. These limitations degrade the reconstruction quality of the hologram resynthesized using the extracted light field. In the proposed method, a deep‐learning model based on a generative adversarial network is designed to suppress speckle noise and blurring, resulting in improved quality of the light field extracted from the hologram. The model is trained using pairs of original two‐dimensional images and their corresponding light‐field data extracted from the complex field generated by the images. Validation of the proposed method is performed using light‐field data extracted from holograms of objects with single and multiple depths and mesh‐based computer‐generated holograms.
Effect of Saw Dust Ash and Rice Husk Ash on some Geotechnical Properties of Makurdi Burnt Clay Bricks
Authors: Iorliam Yala A. , Tile John T. , Ukya Jeremiah T. 
Published: July 2023

The use of cheap and waste materials in bricks production have been encouraged as an alternative to industrial stabilizers due to high cost of cement or lime for production of stabilized bricks. This study looks at the potential of using wastes like saw dust ash (SDA) and rice husk ash (RHA) mixture in treatment of Makurdi clay for burnt bricks production and its subsequent assessment for structural building bricks. Makurdi clay was treated with SDA and RHA mixture, each at 0%, 2%, 4% and 6% respectively. The compressive strength of the burnt bricks increased from 9.40 MN/ for untreated brick to a maximum value of 11.29 MN/ for 2%SDA+2%RHA treated burnt bricks. Treatment with waste mixtures above this content resulted in decreased strength. The water absorption of 14.9% for untreated burnt brick increased to a value of 16.2 % for 2%SDA+2% RHA treated burnt brick. Treatment with higher waste mixture additions resulted in increased water absorption up to 19.4% for 6%SDA+6% RHA treated burnt brick. Energy Dispersion X-ray Spectrometer results showed the presence of calcium, silicate and aluminate as a cementitious compound in the 2%SDA+2%RHA treated burnt brick. The compressive strength value of 11.29 MN/ is greater than 10.3 MN/ which is the minimum value suitable for structural building bricks in grade negligible weather based on ASTM C62-99. Thus 2%SDA+2%RHA treated burnt brick from Makurdi clay is recommended for structural building bricks in grade negligible weather

Since the last three years North Luwu has experienced frequent hydrological disasters in the form of floods and landslides. The disaster had a negative impact on the availability of clean water, failed to plant and even tended to reduce the quality of the harvest. Cocoa is one of the leading commodities of North Luwu Regency whose productivity has decreased due to the impact of climate change so that it will affect the sustainability of the local population's income. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to anticipate rainfall that will occur to prevent or reduce the risk of failure and loss. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Method is used as feature extraction to find out the most influential variables and the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method is used as a prediction method. Future rainfall is predicted using meteorological variables such as pressure, evaporation, maximum temperature, average humidity, and sunshine duration from 1 January 2017 to 30 September 2022. Based on the PCA results, 4 variables are obtained that have the most influence on rainfall, namely: variable evaporation, maximum temperature, average humidity, and length of sunlight. These variables are used as input to predict rainfall using LSTM. In this study using trial parameters, namely the number of hidden, batch size, and learn rate drop period. The best prediction results were obtained for MAPE of 0.0018 with the number of hidden, batch size and learn rate drop periods of 100, 32, and 50 respectively. The prediction results show very heavy rainfall occurring on August 28, 2021 of 101.9734 mm, 21 September 2021 of 108.6528 mm, and 5 April 2022 of 116.5510 mm. In this study PCA was able to increase accuracy in considering all parameters and choosing the most effective.

Abstract. Exploring the snow depth on Mount Everest, one of the most inaccessible places on our planet, has long been a
topic of interest. Previously
reported snow depths have been inconsistent and have large uncertainties.
Here, we report the ground-penetrating radar survey of snow depth along the
north slope of Mount Everest in May 2022. Our radar measurements display
a gradual increasing transition of snow depth along the north slope, and the
mean depth estimates at the summit are 9.5±1.2 m. This updated snow
depth on Mount Everest is much deeper than previously reported values
(0.9–3.5 m).

Access to global information online is essential for an institution or group. Users who use web-based apps from their homes or other locations may meet their requirements without traveling to the designated institution. This study aims to determine if stakeholders' demands can be met by the web-based application for tuition fee management at the Islamic boarding school "Bilal Bin Rabah" in Sukoharjo. Both documentation and UML (Unified Modeling Language) modeling techniques were employed in this study. The purpose of this application is to make it simpler for administrative staff to handle information on student fee payments and to evaluate financial information for associated parties. Three people may use this application's payment system: the administrator, the head of the Islamic boarding school, and a parent of a student. The administrator may handle student information, and payment information, charge the student’s parents, and print the necessary reports for the Islamic Boarding School. The school's headmaster has access to student data and may generate reports and examine student invoices. The invoices and transaction history of payments that have been made are visible to parents/guardians of students. The website will continue to be developed to support the mobile platform, allowing users to access the school fee management system via mobile more conveniently. Based on the test results, users of the SPP payment system application are quite satisfied.
AMIODARONE VERSUS LIDOCAINE FOR PEDIATRIC CARDIAC ARREST DUE TO VENTRICULAR ARRHYTHMIAS: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Authors: M. Hadi  
Published: July 2023

Background: Pediatric cardiac arrests are relatively uncommon but pose significant burdens. The management of pediatric cardiac arrest is unclear between amiodarone or lidocaine, necessitating further research to establish effective interventions.
Aim: to systematically review the effect and funtion of amiodarone and lidocaine, whether amiodarone is more recommended or vice versa.
Methods: this review conducted a thorough literature search comparing amiodarone and lidocaine for shock-refractory pVT/VF in children. Outcomes, including ROSC, termination of arrhythmia, and survival at discharge, were also evaluated.
Results: Out of 756 articles, only three met inclusion criteria comparing amiodarone and lidocaine for VT/VF. One adult study favored amiodarone for survival to hospital admission, but not discharge. Another study on pediatric cases showed lidocaine improved ROSC and 24-hour survival significantly. However, evidence quality was very low for both drugs, warranting further research. A small trial in adults favored amiodarone in stable VT, but its limited size and data quality pose limitations.
Conclusion: The findings of this systematic review proposes that either amiodarone or lidocaine could be considered for the treatment of pediatric shock-resistant VF/pVT.

Authors: M. Hadi  
Published: July 2023

Background:Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has caused over 6 million deaths worldwide. Comorbidities like obesity, asthma, and neurological disorders are risk factors for severe illness in pediatric patients. The direct impact of COVID-19 on child mortality is limited, with only 0.4% of deaths occurring in children under 20.
Objective: To identify risk factors and potential interventions to reduce severe illness and mortality in pediatric patients.
Methods:A systematic review of COVID-19, sars-cov-2, and novel coronavirus in children was conducted using PubMed and Google Scholar. Severe COVID-19 prevalence in children assessed using Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROME) and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklists, assessing quality and bias.
Results:A review of 41 studies found a significant difference in severe COVID-19 infection risk among children with and without comorbidities, including hematologic, immune, respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, obesity, and genetic syndromes.
Conclusion:Comorbidities in pediatric COVID-19 patients enhance the risk; vaccinations and increased vigilance should take priority.
Anti-Black Racism and the Nativist State
Authors: Barber Llana 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This article places Black mobility and anti-Black racism at the center of the history of US immigration restriction. Black migration has often been marginalized in immigration historiography, but I argue that anti-Black racism has played a major role in creating what I term the nativist state. From the colonial era through the present, policies and practices to exclude, detain, and repatriate immigrants often first targeted Black people. In addition, constraints on Black mobility have been central to denying African Americans citizenship rights and rendering Black people foreign, even when born in the United States. Looking at moments of intersection between anti-Black racism and the nativist state serves to illuminate both systems, and to expose the ways they emerged together, reinforced each other, and recycled each other's discourses.
A case of fulminant myocarditis complicated by hemophagocytic syndrome
Authors: Li Xiao-Wei , Cui Yan-Qin 
Published: July 2023

Background: Fulminant Myocarditis and Hemophagocytic Syndrome (HPS) are independent life-threatening diseases. HPS, however, is a rare complication of fulminant myocarditis. It is hard to diagnose HPS in patients with fulminant myocarditis early, but timely identification affects the clinical result. Here is the report of a female who has developed HPS complications after fulminant myocarditis.Case presentation: A 15-year-old Chinese female was admitted to the emergency department with a 3-day history of progressively severe chest pain and then a 1-day history of worsening heart failure needing the veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO). Interventions: V-A ECMO requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) supported critically ill patients with heart failure. The vasoactive drug was used to improve cardiac function, maintain water, electrolyte, and acid-base balance, and nutritional supplements. High-dose methylprednisolone was administered for three days. Etoposide was given two times according to the treatment guideline, followed by cyclosporine. Diagnosis: The definitive diagnosis of the presented case was fulminant myocarditis complicated by hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.Conclusions: For fulminant myocarditis patients suspected of HPS, the functional examination must be considered for early diagnosis. The timely administration of adequate corticosteroids and standard chemotherapy is essential to reduce the risk of HPS mortality.
Use of the Relative Citation Ratio in Conjunction With H-Index to Promote Equity in Academic Orthopaedics
Authors: Herzog Isabel , Mendiratta Dhruv , Liggio Daniel F. , Ahn David B. , Vosbikian Michael , Kaushal Neil K. , Chu Alice 
Published: July 2023

Introduction:
Quantification of a researcher's productivity relies on objective bibliometric measurements, such as the Hirsch index (h-index). However, h-index is not field and time-normalized and possesses bias against newer researchers. Our study is the first to compare the relative citation ratio (RCR), a new article-level metric developed by the National Institutes of Health, with h-index in academic orthopaedics.

Methods:
Academic orthopaedic programs in the United States were identified using the 2022 Fellowship and Residency Electronic Interactive Database. Available demographic and training data for surgeons were collected. RCR was calculated using the National Institutes of Health iCite tool, and h-index was calculated using Scopus.

Results:
Two thousand eight hundred twelve academic orthopaedic surgeons were identified from 131 residency programs. H-index, weighted RCR (w-RCR), and mean RCR (m-RCR) all significantly differed by faculty rank and career duration. However, while h-index and w-RCR varied between sexes (P < 0.001), m-RCR did not (P = 0.066), despite men having a longer career duration (P < 0.001).

Discussion:
We propose that m-RCR be used in conjunction with w-RCR or h-index to promote a fairer, comprehensive depiction of an orthopaedic surgeon's academic effect and productivity. Use of m-RCR may reduce the historic bias against women and younger surgeons in orthopaedics, which has implications in employment, promotion, and tenure.
