Background: Candidemia is a life-threatening bloodstream infection caused by Candida species and is a major concern in pediatric patients, particularly in developing countries like India. Therefore, the goals of the current study are to isolate and identify several Candida species from blood samples, link various risk factors with candidemia, and ascertain the antifungal sensitivity pattern of each species.
Methodology: This study is an observational, cross-sectional study conducted to determine the prevalence, distribution, and antifungal susceptibility of Candida species among pediatric patients with candidemia. The current study collected blood samples in BACT/ALERT 3D Pediatric bottles for fungal blood culture. After positive growth was obtained from Blood agar and Sabouraud's dextrose agar (SDA), a range of biochemical reactions, including Gram staining, Germ tube test, CHROM agar Candida Medium, and Sugar fermentation, were carried out. The Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method was used for conducting the antifungal susceptibility test.
Results: Among the total of 156 different species of Candida, the maximum isolates were Candida albicans (CA) (42.9%), followed by Candida tropicalis (23.1%) and Candida parapsilosis (14.7%). The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) had the most Candida isolates, and catheterization was a leading risk factor. Susceptibility to Amphotericin B, Caspofungin, and Voriconazole was 84.6%, 81.4%, and 76.9%, respectively. Our study observed that the azole group of antifungals revealed pretty high resistance to Non-Candida albicans (NCA).
Conclusion: The prevalence of candidemia was higher in the pediatric ICU and neonatal ICU, and the incidence rate was highest among neonates and infants. The study concludes that NCA species are gradually replacing C. albicans as an important pathogen, and clinicians need to be aware of the antifungal resistance patterns of the different Candida species.

Disembodied Congregations: Covid-19 and the Rising Phenomenon of Internet Churches among Pentecostal Churches in Lagos, Nigeria
Authors: Oderinde Peter Ayoola 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
One could argue that smartphones and computers are an intrinsic part of our daily lives. However, the sudden boom of online fellowships is a recent event in the history of Nigerian Pentecostalism. In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Nigerian government issued several bans on large gatherings and public religious worship. For example, many Pentecostal churches suspended physical meetings and at first only posted sermons online before turning to Zoom to hold services and, much later, small-group meetings through online applications to serve as the “synagogues”. Therefore, many Pentecostal churches in Nigeria were confronted with new problems of organising, ministering and catering for the spiritual needs of their members. This article addresses these challenges by drawing data from a combination of community observation and interviews with mostly Pentecostal church members. To understand the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on religious gathering in Lagos State, 15 semi-structured interviews were carried out through voice-note messages due to lockdown and physical distancing rules.
"To grow old with you': Mentally healthy behaviors of older adults
Authors: VILLAFUERTE SALVACION 
Published: July 2023

<p> </p>
<p>Relationships are experienced all throughout one’s lifetime with differing layers of complexities to maintain and make it last. Among older adult couples, relationships are found to be crucial attributions for being mentally healthy in their intrapersonal and interpersonal lives. There is a rich extant literature on relationships and mental health of older adults. However, this paper argues that there is still a research imperative to provide a more contextualized characterization pertinent to the mentally healthy behaviors employed by Filipino older adults in their more than 20 years of relationship. This phenomenological research underscored the typification of mentally healthy behaviors of older adult couples in long-term monogamous relationships. Guided by the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 22 participants (11 couples) were selected and interviewed. From the collective narratives, a framework, <em>‘Fixatives for mentally healthy long-term monogamous relationships’</em> was rendered with three themes; Character reservoir (Staying to fill you up), Emotional reservoir (<em>Staying to lift you up</em>) and Eternal reservoir (<em>Staying to back you up</em>). The findings showed that the success of a long-term monogamous relationship calls for a pledge of a lifetime commitment and being cognitively, emotionally, socially and spiritually invested to their spouses. The emergent framework may be used as a springboard for community-based programs such as family support sessions and other supportive interventions for older adults. The framework may also be used as a guide for strengthening mental health advocacy campaigns, end-of-life services and to encourage more older-adult studies to deeply enrich the research culture on the Filipino older adults.</p>

This replacement of natural disinfectants is expected to improve fertility, increase hatchability, increase hatching weight and reduce mortality. This study aims to determine whether the fumigation of betel leaf water can improve fertility, increase hatchability, increase hatching weight and reduce mortality in quail hatching, as well as determine the best level of administration in a mixture of betel leaf water and aquades. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments, namely p1 (Control), p2 (70% Alcohol), p3 (20 ml Betel Leaf Extract + 80 ml Aquades), p4 (30 ml Betel Leaf Extract + 70 ml Aquades ), and p5 (40 ml Betel Leaf Extract + 60 ml Aquades) and 4 replicates. The data obtained were processed using variance, if the results showed significant differences, they were tested using the Duncan multiple range test (DMRT). The results showed that quail eggs fumigated using Betel Leaf Extract had an average fertility ranging from 80.00 â€“ 97.00%. The average hatchability ranged from 80.55â€“ 96.91%. The average hatching weight ranged from 8.72 to 8.74 grams. And the average mortality ranged from 3.09 to 19.45%. The results of the study on the effect of treatment on fertility, hatchability and mortality showed a very significantly different effect (P<0.01). Meanwhile, on hatching weight, the effect was not significantly different (P>0.05). Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the most optimal fumigation using Betel Leaf Extract is treatment 3 (20 ml Betel Leaf Extract + 80 ml Aquades) with an average fertility of 97.00%, hatchability 96.91%, hatching weight 8.72 grams, and 3.09% motility.

A data-driven approach for investigating shear strength of slender steel fiber reinforcedconcrete beams
Authors: Quan Tran Van , Giang Nguyen Hoang , Tan Nguyen Ngoc 
Published: July 2023

Using a data-driven approach to study and predict the shear strength of slender steel fiber reinforced concretebeams has great applicability for the design and construction process. Based on the data-driven approach, anArtificial Neural Network (ANN) model with some hyperparameters optimized by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is successfully built. The hidden two-layer ANN model with the number of neurons (5; 6) predicted shear strength with higher accuracy than the models proposed previously in the literature, withR2 = 0.9727 and RMSE = 31.9822 kN for the control dataset. By interpreting the results of the ANN model by the values of SHAP, including the Global SHAP value and SHAP independence plot, the order of influence of the variables on the shear strength value and the predictability of the ANN model can be arranged according to effective depth of section > beam width > longitudinal reinforcement ratio > steel fiber content > concretecompressive strength > shear span/effective depth ratio > fiber tensile strength > aggregate size. Fiber tensilestrength and aggregate size almost do not affect the shear strength value. An increase in the shear span-to-effective depth ratio reduces shear strength, which can be increased by increasing the value of effective depth of section, beam width, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, steel fiber content, and concrete compressive strength.The results of this paper are meaningful in the initial assessment of the shear strength of SSFRC, which helps to speed up the design process and reduce the cost of designing and testing SSFRC beams.

The high incidence of infection occurs due to a lack of public awareness in getting used to a clean and healthy life. Hands are one of the media for the spread of bacteria, so an antibacterial preparation is needed. Puring leaf (Codiaeum variegatum) is a plant that contains many components of secondary metabolites, one of which is tannin compounds. Based on previous research, it has been proven that the tannin group has antibacterial activity. The use of puring leaves directly on the hands is considered less practical so it needs to be formulated in the form of hand antiseptic gel preparations. This study aims to design a hand antiseptic gel formula with variations in the concentration of puring leaf extract and to determine the antibacterial activity of hand antiseptic gel preparations from puring leaf extract against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. This type of research was experimental laboratory. Puring leaves were first extracted using 96% ethanol as solvent and three hand antiseptic gel formulations were made with varying concentrations of extract, namely FI (1.5%), FII (4.5%), and FIII (6%) with a base gel using carbopol 940. The physical tests included organoleptic and homogeneity tests, pH tests, dispersion tests, and viscosity tests. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA and Kruskal Wallis. The antibacterial activity test was measured using the paper disk diffusion method. The results showed that the three formulations of hand antiseptic gel preparations puring leaf extract met the physical characteristics of good gel preparations and FIII had the highest antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with an inhibitory diameter of 3.16Â±0.28. Antibacterial activity in hand antiseptic gel preparation of puring leaf extract is in the weak category.Â Keywords: Antibacterial; puring leaf; paper disk difusi; antiseptic gel
