Authors: Chaudhary Hiral D. , Bhatt Jatin G. , Rajyaguru Ajay M. , Vaniya Nilesh V. 
Published: January 2023

Traumatic diaphragmatic injuries are rare complications resulting from a thoracic-abdominal blunt or penetrating trauma. Diaphragmatic injury is a rare entity and clinically difficult to be diagnosed as symptoms are often masked due to associated injury in poly trauma case. There are no specific signs and symptoms for diagnosing diaphragmatic rupture. High degree of clinical suspicion is needed in all cases of thoroco-abdominal injury to diagnose a case of diaphragmatic rupture. Left sided diaphragmatic injuries are more commonly reported in literature.

Published: January 2023

Background: Most common female cancer worldwide including India is breast cancer. Awareness about breast cancer is very necessary for early detection and prevention as diagnosis at advanced stages of disease contributes to the high mortality rate. An assessment of existing levels of knowledge regarding cancer is a pre-requisite to find out gaps and to plan for proper educational programmes.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in a women’s college, study subjects were students, female faculty members and female staff. A structured questionnaire was given, data was collected and analysed.
Results: In this study it is found that knowledge regarding risk factors for breast cancer was low, only 47.68% knew that family history predisposes for breast cancer, 28.48% knew late menopause is risk factor. 76.82% of respondents knew that lump in breast is a sign of breast cancer, whereas only 31.13% knew that discharge from nipple is sign of breast cancer. Merely 6.40% of respondents knew the procedure of breast self-examination. Majority of respondents i.e. 54.53% told media as source of information.
Conclusions: Regarding breast cancer low level of knowledge was found among the study subjects which suggests that proper information should be provided in colleges, especially health facilities and schools should increase their role in providing related information.

Published: January 2023

[English]: In mathematics teaching and learning, most of the students are not yet able to understand and connect given problems or tasks with mathematics concepts or ideas required to solve the problem. This might relate to their reasoning ability and this ability is likely to be affected by their learning interest. The objective of this study is to describe students' mathematical reasoning based on different learning interests, involving six secondary students with high, medium, and low levels of learning interests, which were identified through a learning interest questionnaire. Data was collected through a reasoning test and interviews and then was qualitatively analyzed by referring to problem-solving stages integrated with aspects of mathematical reasoning. Data analysis was referred to as problem-solving stages integrated with the indicators of reasoning. It shows the different achievements of mathematical reasoning indicators by students who have distinct levels of learning interest; the higher the learning interest students have, the more indicators of reasoning they have. This indicates that students’ learning interest relates to their mathematical reasoning ability.

<p><em>Cocoa is a commodity that has high economic value and has the potential for sustainability to continue to be developed. Cocoa is a mainstay commodity in various regions in Indonesia, one of which is West Sulawesi which is included in the five largest cocoa bean producing provinces in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the level of production and income as well as the risk of production and income of cocoa farming in Kuajang Village, Binuang District, Polewali Mandar Regency. The method used in this study is a quantitative approach that emphasizes the analysis of numerical data. The sampling technique was carried out using the simple random sampling method. The sample in this study was 40 cocoa farmer respondents or 20% of the cocoa farmer population, which totaled 200 people. Data was collected by observation, interviews and documentation. Analysis of the data used is the Coefficient of Variation (CV) analysis. The results showed that the CV value of production risk was 0,76 which was classified as high risk or very risky. This is because of the attack of pests and plant diseases that reduce the production of cocoa plants. While the CV value of income risk is 0,18 which is classified as low risk. This risk also includes the impact of pests and diseases that cause low production and quality of cocoa beans.</em><em></em></p>
Incomplete Periprosthetic Atypical Femoral Fracture With Concomitant Hip and Knee Arthroplasties
Authors: Lo Louise Woon Theng , Koh Joyce Suang Bee , Howe Tet Sen , Png Meng Ai , Lo Ngai Nung 
Published: January 2023

Case:
We present a case of an incomplete periprosthetic femoral fracture at the mid-distal third of the femoral stem after 11 months of bisphosphonate use. It is 1 of 4 cases of mid-distal periprosthetic atypical femoral fractures (PAFFs) found in our literature review. She was treated with protected weight-bearing, cessation of bisphosphonates, and teriparatide. Eighteen months after diagnosis, follow-up radiographs showed a bridging callus and reduction of a transverse fracture line.

Conclusion:
The incomplete PAFF was contributed by both decreased bone turnover from bisphosphonate use and increased mechanical stress at the lateral femoral cortex. Her previous left bipolar hemiarthroplasty and subsequent Total Knee Arthroplasty shifted the mechanical alignment medially, hence increasing tensile stress.

Published: January 2023

Case:
We present a case of a 48-year-old man with a subacute tear of his left rectus femoris, repaired using Achilles tendon allograft. After fixation distally to the patella using suture anchors and a Krackow suture technique, the allograft was fixed proximally to the remnant rectus femoris tendon with multiple sutures in a variety of stitch configurations. The patient recovered excellently, regaining near-normal flexion and an intact straight leg raise without an extensor lag.

Conclusion:
The literature regarding repair of subacute and chronic rectus femoris ruptures is limited. We provide an additional option for operative repair of subacute and chronic ruptures using Achilles tendon allograft.

Authors: Varghese Priscilla , Lam Aaron , Richardson David , Kang Kevin K. 
Published: January 2023

Case:
A 17-year-old boy presented with an open talus fracture complicated by soot contamination after a chimney-related accident. Standard irrigation and debridement (I&D) methods were used, but complete removal of soot was not possible. At the latest follow-up, there was no evidence of infection, hardware failure, or avascular necrosis.

Conclusion:
There is a lack of well-established guidelines regarding I&D of traumatic wounds contaminated with fine particulates. A review of potential debridement methods is discussed. Orthoapedic surgeons should be aware of hydrosurgical debridement as a potential treatment approach in these unique scenarios.

Multivariate analyses including dose-volume histograms indicated that light flash was related to age, chiasmatic gland irradiation, and pituitary dose, and odor was related to age and nasal cavity irradiation.
SEVERIDADE DA MANCHA-DE-CERCÓSPORA E DESEMPENHO AGRONÔMICO DA PIMENTA- MALAGUETA CULTIVADA EM ÁREA DE ENCOSTA EM QUATRO ÉPOCAS DE PLANTIO
Authors: Pinto Cleide Maria Ferreira , Teixeira Hudson 
Published: January 2023

A pimenta-malagueta é plantada praticamente em todo o Brasil e é a pimenta mais cultivada na Zona da Mata mineira, cuja produção é destinada tanto para o consumo in natura, quanto para a fabricação de conservas e de molhos, principalmente. Apesar de sua adaptação às condições edafoclimáticas predominantes na Zona da Mata de Minas Gerais, inúmeros fatores têm contribuído para a baixa produtividade em que se destaca a ocorrência da mancha-de-cercóspora, causada pelo fungo Cercospora capsici. Foi investigada a severidade da mancha-de-cercóspora ou cercosporiose em pimenta-malagueta em quatro épocas de plantio no campo, em área de encosta. Avaliou-se a severidade da doença em 10 folhas de cada terço de três plantas por parcela. Curvas de progresso da doença foram plotadas e as epidemias comparadas em relação à severidade total no final do ciclo e da área abaixo da curva de progresso da doença (AACPD). Avaliou-se também a produtividade e o peso de frutos na colheita. Não foram observadas diferenças significativas entre os valores da severidade e da AACPD entre as quatro épocas de plantio durante os 280 dias de cultivo no campo. Transplantios de pimenta-malagueta em agosto e setembro, em áreas de encosta, proporcionam produtividades de até 12.000 kg/ha, mesmo na presença da doença.
Subunit-dependent interaction of propoxazepam and its metabolite with the -aminobuturic acid type A receptor
Authors: Reder Anatoliy , Larionov Vitalii , Golovenko Mykola 
Published: January 2023

Benzodiazepines (BDZ) are widely used in clinics in the treatment of psychiatric disorders, and their main action is considered to be determined by more selective binding with α1, α2, α3 or α5 subunits of GABA receptor.
The aim of this work was studying of the molecular mechanism of action of new analgesic – propoxazepam and its metabolite (3-hydroxypropoxazepam) on α1, α2, α3, α4 or α5 subunits containing GABAA channels.
Materials and methods GABA ha1b3g2, ha2b3g2, ha3b3g2, ha4b3g2 and ha5b3g2 ionotropic GABAARs expressed in HEK293 were used on the automated SP384PE Patch Clamp system. In addition, Propoxazepam, 3-hydroxypropoxazepam, diazepam (positive allosteric modulator) and GABA (positive control) were administered at concentrations 0.001–300 nM to determine the EC50 and Emax for corresponding substances.
Results The α subunit plays a significantl role in determining the receptor’s affinity for propoxazepam and 3-hydroxypropoxazepam. The rank order of decreasing EC50 are α1 = α5> α2 > α3 > α4 (propoxazepam) and α1> α2> α5 > α3 > α4 (3-hydroxypropoxazepam), and for Emax α3 > α2 >α5 > α1 > α4 (propoxazepam), α3 > α1 > α2> α5 > α4 (3-hydroxypropoxazepam).
The data, transformed to Emax/EC50, show that propoxazepam exhibits tenfold (compared to diazepam) activity (taking into account the magnitude of the maximum effect) to the α3 subunit, which distinguishes it from 3-hydroxypropoxazepam.
Conclusion Due to the determined selectivity of propoxazepam for binding with different α subunit-containing GABAA-receptors (mostly α3 and α2 types), it has the potential to provide analgesia with less sedation than non-selective BDZ.

Computed tomography in the diagnosis of pathologies in children is becoming increasingly popular.
The aim: to study findings of referrals for CT scans (Computerised Tomography) of the brain in children in the department of Radiology in a developing environment.
Materials and methods: retrospective imaging observational study was done in a 1000 bedded tertiary care hospital in South India in the year 2022 from April to August for 5 months under 16 slice CT scan. Cases are referred from the department of Pediatrics to the department of Radiology as part of the routine clinical evaluation and treatment protocol.
Results: Our sample includes 100 infants; after exclusion criteria total of 60 infants' brain CTs were taken into account, and analysed their imaging from radiology department records. Of 60 cases, 18 (30 %) showed HIE Pattern, and 42 (70 %) had normal plain CT Brain findings. However, due to clinical signs and symptoms, they are evaluated under сontrast CT imaging (after checking creatinine levels), showing 20 cases (33.3 %) are standard, 10 cases (16.6 %) show meningitis, and 2 cases (3.3 %) show SOL. Out of 18 cases of HIE, 10 cases (16.6 %) are under less than 6 months and they undergone neuro sonogram showing 4 cases (6.6 %) normal NSG, 2 cases (3.3 %) showing grade IV HIE, another 2 cases (3.3 %) showing grade II, III HIE Findings.
Conclusions: Our study concluded that plain CT brain showed normal in the majority of the cases which came to the department of Radiology after admission to the hospital. Those cases with strong clinical history are evaluated with contrast CT and evaluated the findings. After contrast imaging, most cases showing their infective, obstructive, and other causes of illness are interpreted. However, its role is minimal for seizures in which CT/CECT shows normal study. Under 6 months, NSG is a suitable method for evaluating and screening the infant's brain.

Authors: Swathi Maloth , Andallu Ratnam , Balasaraswathi Manekar , Suvarna Vederay 
Published: January 2023

The aim: To study the efficacy and safety of combined mifepristone and misoprostol used in second-trimester abortion(≥ 12 and ≤ 20 weeks) in comparison with only vaginal misoprostol.
Materials and methods: This study was a prospective comparative randomised clinical study in women attending hospitals in need of a second-trimester abortion, i.e., 12–20 weeks of pregnancy were taken up and divided as Group A – 50 women with mifeprisptone and misoprostol, Group B – 50 women with misoprostol alone Results were analysed according to age, parity, gestational age, average dose of misoprostol required for complete abortion, Induction abortion interval, completeness of abortion, side effects and mean days of hospital stay.
Results: Demographic details are comparable and insignificant in the comparison. The average dose of misoprostol (mcg) required for the completeness of abortion in group A is 596±28.28 mcg, and in group B, it is 1148±160.66 mcg (p<0.001) which is statistically significant. In the present study, the induction abortion interval is significantly less in group A compared to group B, with p<0.001. In addition, 10 out of 50 patients in group A aborted within 7 hours, whereas none in group B. Mean duration of hospital stay in group A is 24 hours. In group B, it is 34.82 hours which is statistically significant with a p-value of <0.001. 12 patients in group A and 26 in group B had side effects like nausea, vomiting, fever, headache and diarrhoea. 8 % of group A and 20 % of group B had a fever. These patients were treated with antipyretics. 6 % in group A and 14 % in group B had nausea and vomiting and were treated with antiemetics. 4 % in group A and 8 % in group B had diarrhoea and were treated with antimotility drugs. 6 % in group A and 10 % in group B had a headache; these patients were treated with NSAIDs.
Conclusions: The combination of mifepristone and misoprostol is a highly effective and safe method for second-trimester termination of pregnancy. The amount of misoprostol needed to accomplish the abortion, and the severity of the adverse effects are lower in the mifepristone-primed group than in the misoprostol-alone group. Since there are fewer difficulties, this approach can be employed in hospitals with high patient density.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
The paper presents the adiabatic installation of compressed gases energy storage. The authors present the results of analyzes for this type of installation due to the selection of thermal storage material. The simulations were carried out for basalt, granite and ceramics (alumina) as well as for porosity value from 0.375 to 0.39 of basalt-filled reservoirs in Thermal Energy Storage (TES) installation. Characteristics of outlet air temperature, air pressure drop amount of energy stored and external heat losses as a time functions during the charging phase are presented. The research indicated that due to the lowest density and average heat capacity of the materials studied, granite has the fastest and most intense physical exit loss from the storage tank which was approximately 1100 W. However, there was no significant effect on air pressure drop depending on the chosen accumulation materials. The effect of rock bed porosity on the pressure drop of flowing air was investigated. For a constant mass flow rate, pressure drop values ranging from 2200 Pa to 6200 Pa were obtained depending on the porosity value.
Decolorization of Two Dyes Using White Rot Fungus P. ostreatus (BWPH) Strain and Evaluation of Zootoxicity of Post Process Samples
Authors: Upadhyay Ruchi , Przystaś Wioletta 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Synthetic dyes are extensively used in various industries like textile and food industry and are responsible for generation of colored and toxic wastewater. The aim of study was to evaluate decolorization efficiency of White Rot Fungi P.ostreatus (strain BWPH) for dyes belonging to different classes: Anthanthrone Red (anthraquinone dye) and Disazo Red (azo dye) having concentration of 0.08g/l. The Daphnia magna immobilization test was performed to check zoo toxicity of samples during and after treatment. The result show that maximum decolorization efficiency achieved for Anthanthrone Red and Disazo Red dye after 168h was 94.31% and 73.13% respectively. The zoo toxicity test reflects that the pure dyes were much less toxic to D.magna at higher concentration. In contrast, the post process samples were more toxic to organism. It reflected production of toxic metabolites because of enzymatic degradation/biotransformation of dye. For anthraquinone dye, post process sample of 0.25 h was less toxic as compared to 168 h sample. Toxicity Unit was 23.52(class IV), and 2.61(class III) respectively for Anthanthrone Red and Disazo Red post process sample. The conducted research showed high potential of BWPH strain for decolorization dyes belonging to different classes. But the mycelium produces toxic substances during the decolorization process. It may be related to the biodegradation of these substances to toxic metabolites. Further studies have indicated to optimize the process of decolorization.
