Purpose: to evaluate the clinical and functional results of two methods of Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty using a full and half graft.Patients and methods. This study is based on surgical treatment of 54 patients (54 eyes) with cataracts and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy were divided into two groups. In the first one, phacoemulsification of cataract with implantation of a hydrophobic IOL and standard «classical» technique of Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty were performed, it included 30 patients (30 eyes). The second group underwent cataract phacoemulsification with implantation of a hydrophobic IOL and modified transplantation of a fragment (1/2) of Descemet’s membrane, it included 24 patients (24 eyes).Results. Transparent engraftment in the first group was achieved in 100 % of cases (30 out of 30 patients), in the second group in 95.8 % of cases (23 out of 24 patients). It should be noted that in the second group, one patient had fibrosis of the posterior layers of the corneal stroma (due to incomplete adherence of the DM to the posterior surface of the recipient’s cornea), this complication required endothelial re-keratoplasty. After 12 months, the BCVA improved from 0.2 ± 0.1 to 0.8 ± 0.2 in the first group, from 0.1 ± 0.1 to 0.7 ± 0.2 in the second group (p < 0 ,0001). The central corneal thickness (CCT) according to keratopachymetry in the first group decreased from 648.7 ± 60 to 512.4 ± 27.4 μm, in the second group — from 650.9 ± 44.5 to 519.6 ± 43.9 μm respectively. The endothelial cell loss (ECL) was 52.3 % and 54.9 % in the first and second groups respectively.Conclusion. The modified technique of Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty is effective for the treatment of Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy providing high clinical and functional results. A comparative analysis of the results obtained showed that at all results of BCVA, ECC and CCT by 12 months after surgery were comparable between two groups. Thus, the use of the new technique made it possible to double the availability of donor material and provide patients good clinical outcomes comparable to those of «classical» DMEK.

Birth Preparedness Plans and Status Disclosure Among Pregnant Women Living with HIV Who are Receiving Antiretroviral Therapy in Ibadan, Southwest, Nigeria
Authors: Akinwaare Margaret O. , Okanlawon Funmilayo A. , Popoola Monisola A. , Adetunji Omotayo O. 
Published: April 2023

Background:
Promoting the maternal health of pregnant women who are living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; [PWLH]) is key to reducing maternal mortality and morbidity. Thus, inadequate birth preparedness plans, non-institutional delivery, and status concealment among PWLH contribute to the spread of HIV infection and threaten the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT). Therefore, this study aimed to assess the birth preparedness plan and status disclosure among PWLH, as well as the prevalence of HIV infection among pregnant women.

Methods:
The study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional research design; a quantitative approach was used for data collection. Three healthcare facilities that represented the three levels of healthcare institutions and referral centers for the care of PWLH in the Ibadan metropolis were selected for the recruitment process. A validated questionnaire was used to collect data from 77 participants within the targeted population. Ethical approval was obtained prior to the commencement of data collection.

Results:
The prevalence rate of HIV infection among the participants was 3.7%. Only 37.1% of the participants had a birth preparedness plan. A total of 40% of the participants tested for HIV, because testing was compulsory for antenatal registration. Only 7.1% of the participants had their status disclosed to their partners. Although 90% of the participants proposed delivering their babies in a hospital, only 80% of these participants had their status known in their proposed place of birth.

Conclusion and Global Health Implications:
The prevalence of HIV infection among pregnant women is very low, which is an indication of improved maternal health. However, the level of birth preparedness plan and status disclosure to partners are equally low, and these factors can hinder PMTCT. Institutional delivery should be encouraged among all PWLH, and their HIV status must be disclosed at their place of birth.
Investigating the Mean Residence Time in a Two-Phase Oil-Water Separator Using Volume of Fluid Multiphase Theory in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation
Authors: Dehghan Yeke Baghi Mohammad , Karimi Mehdi 
Published: April 2023

Summary
Multiphase separators are essential to chemical units, especially in the oil and gas industry. Because separators are usually the first equipment installed in the oil and gas units, their performance directly affects other equipment. A two-phase oil-water separator was investigated in this study. Based on the average residence time reported for the pilot separator, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was validated. The multiphase volume of fluid (VOF) theory in Ansys Fluent software is used for the simulation. Initially, the effect of halving the geometry from its line of symmetry was investigated to see if the halved geometry could replace the complete geometry in the simulation. After validation, the effect of four different inlet deflectors on the mean residence time (MRT) was investigated. A spherical inlet deflector and three plate inlet deflectors with varying angles were tested to examine the effects of inlet deflectors. Among the plate inlet deflectors, the one with an angle between the plates of 105 degrees had the highest MRT and the separator with an angle between the plates of 135 degrees had the lowest MRT. This is because of the fluid conduction by the separator and its collision with its wall. The spherical input deflector increases the MRT by 8.9% compared to the separator without the input deflector.
