Authors: Sharma Shyamendra Pratap , Chowdhary Sarita , Kumar Rakesh , Yadav Manoj Kumar , Sharma S P , Panigrahi Pranay 
Published: January 2023

Context:
Hypospadias is a common urological anomaly which could be surgically corrected with good cosmetic results.

Aims:
We aimed to detect changes in urinary flow parameters both before and after tubularised incised plate urethroplasty (TIPU) using uroflowmetry.

Settings and Design:
Data collected were clinically implemented hypothesising the probability of urethrocutaneous fistula following stricture with Qmax variation.

Materials and Methods:
This study is a prospective analysis done from December 2017 to October 2019. A total of 104 cases of anterior hypospadias were included in the study. A single surgical unit did TIPU. Pre-operative and post-operative uroflowmetry was done, and Qmax was recorded at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. Mean Qmax was calculated for all intervals. A significant decrease in Qmax of a child (<2 standard deviation) was ascertained. Urethral calibration was done in those cases with a significant decrease of Qmax and analysed statistically.

Results:
The mean age was 6.97 ± 2.41 years. Out of 104 children, 73 (70.2%) and 31 (29.8%) had distal and mid-shaft hypospadias, respectively. The pre-operative mean Qmax of the population was 6.20 ± 0.42 ml/s. Arithmetic mean Qmax at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year was 8.53 ± 0.42, 11.18 ± 0.47 and 13.71 ± 0.44 ml/s, respectively. On comparing the pre-operative with post-operative mean Qmax, a significant increase was found postoperatively (P < 0.0001). Twenty-four patients had significantly decreased Qmax value after 6 months. In these patients, follow-up urethral dilation was done with significant improvement.

Conclusion:
The changes in maximum flow rate (Qmax) are suitable for use in routine follow-up. A significant decrease in Qmax over time indicates the onset of urethral stricture. These cases are to be intervened before venturing to redo urethroplasty.

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Uncertain situation of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to fear, stigma, and discrimination across all strata of society in varying proportions. Stigmatization increases the suffering of people or those who are at risk of getting the disease and make it harder for public health authorities to control the disease.

Material and Methods:
The present study is a questionnaire-based cross-sectional survey conducted over a period of four weeks in the month of July 2021 in a food industry in rural region of western Maharashtra among COVID-19 positive patients. A total of 152 participants were included in the study. The data was analyzed using SPSS software (version 20). Descriptive statistics were used which included frequencies and percentages.

Results:
64.5% of the participants were males and 35.5% were females. Approx. 85% of the participants were in age group 15-58 years. 100% of them reported to have faced fear on being tested COVID-19 positive. However, only approx. 2-5% individuals hid their illness from family and friends and 7.9% of them were afraid of getting hospitalized.

Conclusion:
It was found that fear was prevalent among all survivors but stigma was found to be minimal which is likely due to widespread awareness through media, IEC campaigns, and active involvement of administration in implementing policies.

Background:Childhood obesity has increased in Saudi Arabia over the past few decades. However, a representative burden of obesity remains unclear, as most studies had relied on small samples and/or used international growth references, which may have resulted in over-or underestimations of prevalence.Objective:The study aimed to determine the prevalence of obesity among children and adolescents in Saudi Arabia using the Saudi growth chart.Methods:This population-based retrospective study included children and adolescents aged 2–19 years who visited any facility within the National Guard Health System (5 hospitals and 24 primary care centers) across Saudi Arabia between 2016 and 2021. The Saudi growth reference for children and adolescents was used for classification. Those with body mass index ≥95thpercentile were considered as obese and ≥85thto <95thpercentile as overweight. Chi-square tests were used to compare frequencies across groups.Results:A total of 351,195 children and adolescents were included, of which 337,316 (96%) were Saudis. Overall, about one-fifth of the population was overweight (11.2%) or obese (9.4%). The prevalence of obesity was highest among children aged 2–6 years (12.3%), and it was higher among boys (10.4%) than girls (8.3%). In terms of region, the prevalence of obesity among Saudis was highest in the Central and Eastern regions (9.9% for both).Conclusion:The findings highlight an urgent need for national interventions to focus on the upstream determinants of childhood obesity and to improve healthy options for children and adolescents in terms of food and physical activities.

PURPOSE:
To assess the optic disc and retinal microvasculature by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in asthmatic children.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Thirty asthmatic children (asthma group) and 30 control age- and sex-matched healthy controls (control group) were included in this cross-sectional study. The asthma group was then divided into two subgroups according to the presence of inhaled steroid use. Demographic findings were noted. Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and vessel density in different sections of the retina and optic nerve head were analyzed by OCTA.

RESULTS:
RNFL thickness for temporal quadrants and flow area for outer retina levels were significantly lower in the asthma group than the control group (72.58 ± 10.99 μm vs 77.73 ± 9.73μm, P = 0.015, and 0.60 ± 0.31mm2 vs. 0.72 ± 0.31mm2, P = 0.047, respectively). However, inside disc vascular densities were significantly higher in the asthma group when compared to controls (55.16% ± 3.71% vs. 52.08% ± 3.79%, P < 0.001). Inside disc vascular densities were also significantly higher, and RNFL thickness for temporal quadrants was significantly lower in the asthmatic patients without steroid use subgroup when compared to others (P < 0.001, P = 0.012, respectively).

CONCLUSION:
Lower values of temporal quadrant RNFL, and flow area for outer retina, but higher levels of inside disc vascular density seem to be associated with asthmatic children. OCTA findings in asthmatic children appear to be regardless of inhaled steroid use.

Comparative Analysis of Encryption Algorithms
Authors: Olutola Agbelusi , Olumuyiwa Matthew 
Published: January 2023

Purpose: Encryption algorithm allows users to extend the assurance found in the physical world to the electronic world in the carrying out of our day-to-day activities. This research attempts to make a comparative evaluation of two encryption algorithms (Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Rivest Shamir Algorithm (RSA) in order to ascertain the most reliable in terms of their encryption time, decryption time, Key length, and cipher length.
Methodology: Java programming was used for the development and Mongo Db to generate data parsing.
Findings: The results obtained from the development revealed that AES is considered more efficient because it uses lesser time for encryption and decryption, reduces cipher and key length as compared with RSA which consumes longer encryption and decryption time, and increases cipher and key length. Excel package was also used to display the pictorial representation of the comparison between these algorithms.
Recommendation: Advanced encryption standard is recommended for security-based application developers because of the small time of encryption and decryption.

Published: January 2023

Edward's syndrome or trisomy 18 syndrome is due to meiotic nondisjunction with multisystemic involvement. It is characterized by craniofacial, skeletal, cardiovascular, central nervous system and genitourinary malformations. Developmental delay is common in all children. Most cases are diagnosed before birth based on the mother's age and the detection of ultrasound abnormalities in the second and third trimesters. A careful examination is therefore very important to confirm the diagnosis and to help identify unexpected abnormalities. There is very little data on Edward's syndrome. This case report can contribute to the literature and compare it to other known genetic disorders.
Keywords : Trisomy 18 syndrome, Edwards syndrome, diagnosis, genetic disorders.
Formaldehyde and hydroperoxide distribution around the Arabian Peninsula – evaluation of EMAC model results with ship-based measurements

Abstract. Formaldehyde (HCHO), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)
and organic hydroperoxides (ROOH) play a key role in atmospheric oxidation
processes. They act as sources and sinks for HOx radicals
(OH + HO2), with OH as the primary oxidant that governs the
atmospheric self-cleaning capacity. Measurements of these species allow
for evaluation of chemistry-transport models which need to account for
multifarious source distributions, transport, complex photochemical reaction
pathways and deposition processes of these species. HCHO is an intermediate
during the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is an indicator of photochemical activity
and combustion-related emissions. In this study, we use in situ observations
of HCHO, H2O2 and ROOH in the marine boundary layer (MBL) to
evaluate results of the general circulation model EMAC (ECHAM5/MESSy2
Atmospheric Chemistry; European Center HAMburg, Modular Earth Submodel System). The dataset was obtained during the Air Quality and Climate Change in the Arabian Basin (AQABA) ship
campaign around the Arabian Peninsula in summer 2017. This region is
characterized by high levels of photochemical air pollution, humidity and
solar irradiation, especially in the areas around the Suez Canal and the
Arabian Gulf. High levels of air pollution with up to 12 ppbv HCHO, 2.3 ppbv
ROOH and relatively low levels of H2O2 (≤0.5 ppbv) were
detected over the Arabian Gulf. We find that EMAC failed to predict absolute
mixing ratios of HCHO and ROOH during high-pollution events over the Arabian
Gulf, while it reproduced HCHO on average within a factor of 2. Dry
deposition velocities were determined for HCHO and H2O2 at
night with 0.77±0.29 cm s−1 for HCHO and 1.03±0.52 cm s−1 for H2O2 over the Arabian Sea, which were
matched by EMAC. The photochemical budget of H2O2 revealed
elevated HOx radical concentrations in EMAC, which resulted in an
overestimation of H2O2 by more than a factor of 5 for the AQABA
dataset. The underestimated air pollution over the Arabian Gulf was related
to EMAC's coarse spatial resolution and missing anthropogenic emissions in
the model.
