<p>Effect of climate on the bacteriology of chronic suppurative otitis
media</p>
Authors: Yildirim A , Erdem H , Kilic S , Yetiser S , Pahsa A 
Published: September 2022

Objectives: We evaluated the correlation between the microbial content of chronic
suppurative otitis media (CSOM) and regional climatic parameters. Methods: We
assessed the interrelations between monthly mean records of temperature, maximum
temperature, atmospheric pressure, and humidity and the aerobic microbial flora in
CSOM. Results: Forty-three bacteria of Enterobacteriaccae, 67 Staphylococcal spp,
51 Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 9 Streptococcus pneumoniae, 1 alpha-hemolytic Streptococcus,
1 Enterococcus sp, and 2 Edwardsiella tarda strains were recovered from 173 patients
with CSOM. There was a good relationship between enteric bacteria and monthly mean
temperature (r = 0.501) and significant colonization rates due to increasing monthly
mean temperature (p = .040) and monthly mean maximum temperature values (p = .048).
Conclusions: When the weather warmed, the frequency of isolation of enteric bacteria
increased significantly. Temperature changes may affect the enteric bacterial
colonization of CSOM. Published courtesy of:Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol. 2005; 114(8):

Aural swabs were collected from 250 patients with chronic suppurative otitis media
(CSOM) (tubotympanic disease). Duration of car discharge was more than 6 months for
culture and sensitivity test. The disease was unilateral in 178 (71.2%) and bilateral in
72 (28.8%) patients. From a total of 322 aural swab cultures, 324 organisms were
isolated with predominance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (36.4%) followed by Staphylococcus
aureus (30.2%). All the isolated Gram-negative organisms showed in vitro sensitivity to
ciprofloxacin, amikacin, ofloxacin, and gentamycin, whereas cloxacillin, ofloxacin,
erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin and tetracycline were more effective against
Grampositive isolates. Most isolates were resistant to amoxycillin. It is concluded that
ciprofloxacin is preferred to aminoglycosides as an important tool in the treatment of
CSOM because of its lower cost, lack of ototoxicity and availability as topical oral
preparations. Published courtesy of:Trop Doct. 2004; 34(2): 102-104
<p>Early hearing detection at immunization clinics in developing
countries</p>
Authors: Olusanya BO , Okolo AA 
Published: September 2022

Early hearing detection has become a standard of neonatal care in most parts of
the developed world. A growing number of developing countries arc also currently
exploring practical and culturally appropriate options for early hearing detection.
Recent findings from ongoing infant hearing screening programs in Nigeria and South
Africa suggest that hearing screening programs are feasible if integrated into early
childhood immunization programs in developing countries, especially where a significant
number of births occur outside regular hospitals. A major challenge for a multi-stage
screening protocol is how to minimize default rates for follow-up till diagnosis.
However, this could be systematically addressed through improved parental education and
appropriate support at various stages of the program. Published courtesy of:Int J

<p>Congenital rubella syndrome burden in Morocco: a rapid retrospective
assessment</p>
Authors: Bloom S , Rguig A , Berraho A , Zniber L , Bouazzaoui N , Zaghloul Z , Reef S , Zidouh A , Papania M , Seward J 
Published: September 2022

Background: WHO recommends that countries considering introduction of rubella
vaccine into their immunisation programme assess their burden of congenital rubella
syndrome, to determine whether vaccination is warranted. However, few guidelines exist
for such assessments in developing countries. We retrospectively estimated the burden of
congenital rubella syndrome in Morocco, and assessed our methods of rapid case
finding. Methods: We undertook case finding in the two cities with Morocco’s main
tertiary care referral centres, using medical records from births between Jan 1, 1990,
and May 31, 2002, disability records from 1965 to 1997, and retinal examinations from
deaf students born between 1985 and 1994, applying the WHO definition for a clinically
confirmed case of congenital rubella syndrome. We also reviewed disability data for
evidence of epidemic periodicity and estimated yearly incidence of the syndrome from
congenital cataract data for births between 1990 and 2001. Findings: We identified
62 clinically confirmed cases of congenital rubella syndrome from medical records, 148
from disability records, and 15 in deaf students. We noted no epidemic periodicity in
disability data, and estimated a yearly incidence of the syndrome in Morocco of 8.1-12.7
cases per 100,000 livebirths. Interpretation: We show evidence of congenital
rubella syndrome in Morocco and support the addition of rubella vaccination to the
national programme. Various data sources can be explored to rapidly assess burden of the
syndrome; ophthalmology departments and outpatient cardiology clinics could offer the
most potential for such case finding, dependent on documentation practices.

country</p>
Authors: Olusanya B 
Published: September 2022

The aim of this study was to evaluate self-reported outcomes among hearing aid
users (age 16-89 years; mean 45.8 years) to determine the effectiveness of aural
rehabilitation in Nigeria based on the International Outcome Inventory for Hearing Aids
(IOI-HA). The responses were evaluated with descriptive statistics, factor analysis of
the principal components and multiple regressions. Most respondents reported favorable
outcomes in all domains of the inventory, comprising: daily use (mean 4.1; SD 1.2),
benefits (mean 3.5; SD 1.1), residual activity limitation (mean 3.4; SD 1.2),
satisfaction (mean 3.7; SD 1.2), residual participation restriction (mean 3.5; SD 1.3),
impact on others (mean 3.4; SD 1.3) and changes in quality of life (mean 3.8; SD 1.0).
The mean score distribution compared favorably with those reported in the developed
world. There were significant intercorrelations among all items, and two factors
(eigenvalue>1) accounted for 68% of the underlying variance. Impact on others was the
only domain associated with demographic/audiologic variables. The study showed that
aural rehabilitation is feasible and effective in enhancing activity and participation
for the hearing impaired in a developing country. Published courtesy of:Int J

Strategy Towards Accurate Location of Seismic Events Sources in Mining Environments: Effect of Voids and Backfill
Authors: Mukhamedyarova Z. , Suorineni F. , Aldubay T. , Sapinov G. 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT:
Seismic events may occur naturally or unnaturally as a result of human activity. The focus of this research is on seismicity caused by human activities in underground mines. Despite significant technological advances in the mining industry, the phenomenon of rockburst and its mitigation measures are still controversial technique. Predicting the time of occurrence of rockbursts remains a challenge. At best we can estimate the potential location of seismic events from numerical modelling. Seismic monitoring systems play a major role in the mitigation of rockbursts by identifying their potential source locations. The accuracy of seismic event source locations depends on the reliability of the velocity model. Because the mining environment is constantly changing, a constant input velocity may result in spurious seismic event locations. In this paper physical laboratory models mimicking the continuously changing mining environment are used to investigate the impact of the changing mining environment on seismic wave velocity to provide means for predicting the seismic wave velocity in real-time to improve the accuracy of seismic source locations.

1. INTRODUCTION
Seismicity can occur naturally or be caused by human activity. This study focuses on underground mine seismicity induced by mining operations. A seismic event that occurs suddenly resulting in a damage to an excavation, equipment and or injury to personnel is known as a rockburst (Zhou, Li & Mitri, 2018). Rockbursts are a common problem in deep underground mines and affect mine operations in terms of safety, productivity and efficiency. Predicting the time of rockburst occurrence is difficult due to its complex nature. The only way to deal with the problem is to identify possible locations of rockburst occurrence through site experience or numerical modelling (Trifu & Suorineni, 2009).
Microseismic monitoring systems are common tools used for monitoring seismicity for the estimation of different hazard sources. These equipment are widely used in deep underground mines and are vital to control and mitigate the risks caused by seismicity. The microseismic monitoring system helps to detect, locate and identify seismic events in underground mines, and therefore they are essential part of the rockburst understanding mechanism.
Analytical Model to Effective Permeability Loss Monitoring and Boundary Effects Identification in Oil Wells with Finite Hydraulic Fractures
Authors: Fernandes F. B. , Braga A. M. B. , Souza A. L. S. , Soares A. C. 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT:
Hydraulic fracturing technology has been used by petroleum industry to solve a variety of problems and providing the understanding for many of difficult issues. This work presents a new analytical model to evaluate the effective permeability response during the oil’s production through a vertical well fully penetrating a pressure-sensitive reservoir with a finite extent hydraulic fracture. The nonlinear hydraulic diffusivity equation (NHDE) is solved analytically through an integro-differential model coupled to Green’s function (GF) related to an oil source plan that represents the finite hydraulic fracture. A new effective hydraulic diffusivity deviator factor is also derived to represent the permeability loss as function of the pore pressure throughout the well-reservoir life-cycle. For this oil flow modeling, the general solution is expressed by the sum of the linear solution (constant permeability) plus a corrective term given by the combination of the exponential function Ei(xD,yD,tD) and the complementary error function erfc(xD,yD,tD). The proposed model is implemented in Matlab software to evaluate the effect of the effective deviator factor in the permeability response over the oil’s production’s period. The model calibration is performed through a numerical oil flow simulator, widely used in the petroleum industry and scientific works and the results were accurate.

1 INTRODUCTION
Reservoir stimulation techniques e.g. acidizing, acid and hydraulic fracturing are used to make the production’s curve economically attractive (Fernandes, 2021a,b; Fernandes et al., 2021a). These techniques are also used to improve the oil production curve when the reservoir permeability drops and the minimum viable oil flow rate is reached.
Hydraulically fractured petroleum reservoirs may increase significantly the oil production’s curve and make many projects more attractive economically (Almisned and Al-Awad, 2017; Miskimins, 2019). Various works related to proppant transport and hydraulic fractures behavior in conventional and unconventional pressure-sensitive oil reservoirs have been published to reach the maximum stimulated reservoir volume to improve the oil recovery (Miskimins, 2019; Miskimins and Alotaibi, 2019). There-with, hydraulic fracturing is a continuously evolving well stimulation method to enhance, accelerate and restore production by reducing the oil flow-path resistance from the porous media to the well (Howard and Fast, 1957; Zoback and Haimson, 1982; Warpinski et al., 1981a,b, 1982a,b, 1985, 1993, 1998; Gringarten, 2008; Economides and Noltes, 2000; Miskimins, 2019; Miskimins and Alotaibi, 2019).
Effect of Parent Well Production on Wellbore Breakout of Child Well in Coalbed Methane Reservoirs
Authors: Qi Gao , Songcai Han , Xian Shi , Yang Li , Yuanfang Cheng , Chuanliang Yan 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT:
The accurate estimation of parent well production induced in-situ stress change is of great significance for evaluating wellbore breakout of child wells. For conventional reservoirs, poromechanical effect is considered to be the main factor that controls in-situ stress evolution. However, for coalbed methane (CBM) reservoirs, gas desorption-induced coal shrinkage also contributes to the stress change, which is rarely included in the theoretical models. In this work, the in-situ stress evolution during coalbed depletion is first investigated through combining the effect of poromechanics and gas desorption. Then, the calculated stresses are incorporated into the geomechanical model to analyze the effect of gas desorption-induced coal shrinkage on wellbore breakout of child wells. The obtained results indicate that with pore pressure decreasing, both the maximum and minimum horizontal stresses decrease at a larger rate when gas desorption effect is considered. For vertical wellbore section of child wells, the larger Langmuir strain leads to the smaller breakout length and width, while for horizontal wellbore section of child wells, the larger Langmuir strain leads to the larger breakout length and smaller breakout width. The modeling results offer new insights for understanding the wellbore breakout of child wells in CBM reservoirs.

1. INTRODUCTION
With the worldwide energy consumption rate steadily increasing, more drilling practices are taken place in the mature oil and gas fields (Yang and Liu, 2021). For instance, in CBM reservoirs, infill-wells are drilled and stimulated around the parent-wells to improve the production performance of the depleted formation (Salmachi et al., 2013). When an infill-well is drilled, stress concentration will occur around the borehole which may damage the rocks if the concentrated stress exceeds the rock strength (Zoback et al., 1985). Breakout is a typical type of wellbore instability problem during the drilling process (Mohammadali et al., 2021) and, in vertical wells, borehole enlargement orientation is consistent with the minimum horizontal stress direction, as shown in Fig. 1. However, in depleted reservoirs, pore pressure decline alters the original in-situ stresses and thus the stresses around the wellbore. Therefore, drilling mud weight window changes for the new wells and also the wellbore breakout shape will be different from the old ones.

Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT:
Crude oil emulsification exists in unconventional reservoirs after hydraulic fracturing. The matching relationship between emulsion particle size and core pore throat is a key indicator for evaluating shale oil mobility. In order to quantify the matching relationship, laboratory emulsification experiments and reservoir pore characterization are carried out in this paper. The results showed that the oil-water ratio, salinity and surfactant had synergistic effects on the particle size of emulsion. When the water phase composition was constant, the particle size of emulsion increased with the increase of water phase. When the salinity of water phase is high, increasing the amount of water phase can form small particle emulsion. When the salinity of water phase is low, reducing the amount of water phase can form small particle emulsion. Small particle size emulsions can be formed when the aqueous phase contains surfactants. Emulsion particle size is mainly distributed in 0-0.2 μm, reservoir pore throat diameter is mainly distributed in 0.5-1 μm, belongs to micro-nano pores, can provide a good channel for crude oil and emulsion migration.

1 INTRODUCTION
Continental shale oil is the most potential and strategic oil replacement resource in China. Among them, the Permian Lucaogou Formation shale oil in Jimusar Sag in Xinjiang has large reserves and is planned to produce millions of tons in recent years (Hu et al., 2020., Hu et al., 2018., Li et al., 2021., Zhang et al., 2021). Jimusar area in Xinjiang belongs to tight oil reservoir, the reservoir pore throat system mainly develops intergranular pores and intergranular corrosion pores, in which the pore formed by partial sand (or sand debris) gap and the contact area of particles constitute the throat, which has good connectivity and connectivity length (Xiao et al., 2021., Zhang et al., 2021., Li et al., 2021., Zhang et al., 2021). The pores of the reservoir provide channels for the migration of water phase and crude oil.

Di dalam ilmu ekonomi konvensional uang diartikan sebagai setiap alat tukar yang dapat diterima secara umum. Alat tukar itu berupa benda apa saja yang dapat diterima oleh setiap orang dimasyarakat dalam proses pertukaran barang dan jasa. Dalam ekonomi Islam, secara etimologi uang berasal dari kata al-naqdu, pengertiannya ada beberapa makna yaitu: al-naqdu berarti yang baik dari dirham, mengenggam dirham, membedakan dirham, dan al-naqdu juga berarti tunai. Kata nuqud tidak terdapat dalam al-qur?an dan hadist, karena bangsa Arab umumnya tidak menggunakan nuqud untuk menunjukkan harga. Mereka menggunakan kata dinar untuk menunjukkan mata uang yang terbuat dari emas dan kata dirham untuk menunjukkan alat tukar yang terbuat dari perak. Mereka juga menggunakan wariq untuk menunjukkan dirham perak, kata 'ain untuk menunjukkan dinar emas.

ImportanceArea-level factors have been identified as important social determinants of health (SDoH) that impact many health-related outcomes. Less is known about how the social vulnerability index (SVI), as a scalable composite score, can multidimensionally explain the population-based cancer screening program uptake at a county level.ObjectiveTo examine the geographic variation of US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF)–recommended breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening rates and the association between county-level SVI and the 3 screening rates.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis population-based cross-sectional study used county-level information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s PLACES and SVI data sets from 2018 for 3141 US counties. Analyses were conducted from October 2021 to February 2022.ExposuresSocial vulnerability index score categorized in quintiles.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe main outcome was county-level rates of USPSTF guideline-concordant, up-to-date breast, cervical, and colorectal screenings. Odds ratios were calculated for each cancer screening by SVI quintile as unadjusted (only accounting for eligible population per county) or adjusted for urban-rural status, percentage of uninsured adults, and primary care physician rate per 100 000 residents.ResultsAcross 3141 counties, county-level cancer screening rates showed regional disparities ranging from 54.0% to 81.8% for breast cancer screening, from 69.9% to 89.7% for cervical cancer screening, and from 39.8% to 74.4% for colorectal cancer screening. The multivariable regression model showed that a higher SVI was significantly associated with lower odds of cancer screening, with the lowest odds in the highest SVI quintile. When comparing the highest quintile of SVI (SVI-Q5) with the lowest quintile of SVI (SVI-Q1), the unadjusted odds ratio was 0.86 (95% posterior credible interval [CrI], 0.84-0.87) for breast cancer screening, 0.80 (95% CrI, 0.79-0.81) for cervical cancer screening, and 0.72 (95% CrI, 0.71-0.73) for colorectal cancer screening. When fully adjusted, the odds ratio was 0.92 (95% CrI, 0.90-0.93) for breast cancer screening, 0.87 (95% CrI, 0.86-0.88) for cervical cancer screening, and 0.86 (95% CrI, 0.85-0.88) for colorectal cancer screening, showing slightly attenuated associations.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this cross-sectional study, regional disparities were found in cancer screening rates at a county level. Quantifying how SVI associates with each cancer screening rate could provide insight into the design and focus of future interventions targeting cancer prevention disparities.
