Abstract

Objectives
To investigate the latest cutoff value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I for major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) during the perioperative period of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Methods
A total of 200 patients, into MACEs and non-MACEs groups according to the occurrence of MACEs over a 12 day postoperative period underwent a complete baseline history survey, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), and laboratory examination during a preoperative cardiology consultation. Serum levels of hs-TnI, myohemoglobin, creatine kinase MB isoform (CK-MB), and B-type natriuretic peptide were assessed using a Beckman DXI800 automatic chemiluminescence immune analyzer.

Results
The 200 patients were classified into the MACEs (n=10) and non-MACEs (n=190) groups. Based on a receiver-operating characteristic analysis, the optimal 4–6 h postoperative hs-TnI, CK-MB, and MYO joint cut-off levels for predicting perioperative MACEs were 2,622.3 pg/mL, 17.9 ng/mL, and 190.2 ng/mL, respectively. The AUC was 0.779 (95% confidence interval: 0.622–0.937; p<0.05) with a sensitivity of 80.0% and a specificity of 74.0%. When the hs-TnI, CK-MB, and MYO levels exceeded the joint cut-off levels, the incidence of MACEs was significantly increased during the perioperative period (Log rank p<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that dyslipidemia, left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, hs-TnI level, and myohemoglobin level were the main risk factors for MACEs after CABG (p<0.05).

Conclusion
An hs-TnI level of 2,622.3 pg/mL, CK-MB level of 17.9 ng/mL, and MYO level of 190.2 ng/mL were the cutoff values for predicting MACEs. Dyslipidemia, left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, hs-TnI level, and myohemoglobin level were the main risk factors for MACEs after CABG.

Abstract
Both linezolid and vancomycin have good efficacy in the treatment of resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of linezolid vs vancomycin for the treatment of resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections in children under 12 years.
Five randomly controlled trials involving 638 children that were treated with linezolid and vancomycin for resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections were searched from medical databases. Meta-analysis showed that linezolid and vancomycin had equivalent efficacies in clinical cure rates in the intent-to-treat population (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.88, 2.09) and microbiologically evaluable patients (95% CI: 0.46, 2.47). Linezolid and vancomycin also had equivalent pathogen eradication rates for Staphylococcus aureus (95% CI: 0.31, 4.81), methicillin-resistant S. aureus (95% CI: 0.36, 5.34), Enterococcus faecalis (95% CI: 0.32, 8.76), and coagulase-negative Staphylococci (95% CI: 0.43, 4.01). Vancomycin resulted in a higher incidence of alanine aminotransferase increase (95% CI: 0.37, 0.97), red man syndrome (95% CI: 0.01, 0.28), and rash (95% CI: 0.11, 0.73) than linezolid. Clinically, linezolid had a superior safety to vancomycin for resistant Gram-positive infections.
Linezolid might be prescribed for the treatment of resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections in children under 12 years.
Process-Panentheism and the “Only Way” Argument
Authors: Langby Lina 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Given panentheism, when trying to offer a plausible solution to the problem of evil, what is the most promising way forward? In this article, I argue that a panentheist who wants to answer the problem of evil by using the “only way” argument should embrace the metaphysics of process theism. In other words, she ought to be a process-panentheist. Process theism is a version of panentheism, while panentheism generally need not to imply process theism. I shall use the terms “process-panentheist” and “non-process-panentheist” to differentiate adherents of these two forms of panentheism. I examine the “only way” argument as a possible theodicy for panentheists and conclude that it is only a convincing theodicy for the panentheist if (i) she is a process-panentheist, or (ii) she thinks this is the best possible world. If she is a non-process-panentheist or does not think this is the best possible world, the “only way” approach fails to be a coherent theodicy.
A rhetoric of inauthenticity: critical object images in Woolf’s Victorian scenes
Authors: Sönmez Margaret J.-M. 
Published: May 2022

AbstractThis paper extends the fields of visual and object semiosis, style, and rhetoric by introducing the concept of critical object images. It identifies five of their rhetorical functions in literature and demonstrates the semiotic and rhetorical specificity and force of literary object images. Inter-disciplinary concepts and theories used in the study are introduced before the concept is tested and developed through analyses of object images with critical roles in the Victorian scenes of Virginia Woolf’s novels. The inductive analyses trace the semiosis and stylistic affordances (meanings) of the selected critical object images, with reference to three categories of kitsch inauthenticity, and their formal and cultural contexts, noting the rhetorical function(s) they serve. Multimodal stylistics and the semiotics of visual images and of objects are used in these analyses, and the unique contribution of critical object images as rhetorical elements in literature is uncovered and explained. The analysis of Woolf’s representation of selected objects shows how the critical object images function rhetorically, through their stylistic connotations (here of kitsch inauthenticity), to present unambiguous meanings that are not openly stated in the texts’ verbal discourse.
Influence of leading edge point on aerodynamic performance of asymmetric leading edge compressor airfoils

Published: May 2022

Abstract
Leading edge (LE) plays a prominent role in compressor flow. The asymmetric leading edge (ASYLE) has shown superiorities to symmetric LE in blade aerodynamic performance. However, the influencing rules of ASYLE design parameters are still ambiguous. In this work, numerical calculations were conducted to investigate the influencing effects of LE point curvature and position. The results show that the operating range of ASYLE blades expand with the decrease of LE point curvature, which helps to moderate LE flow acceleration, while the LE point position mainly affects the operating range. It is also revealed that the SSLE curvature peak is supposed to be close to LE point, and the maximum value of PSLE curvature should be restricted.

Authors: Asadujjaman Md , Hossain Md. Akhtar 
Published: May 2022

Fish growth, yield and economics of polyculture were evaluated for six months from April to September, 2011 in ponds of Kushtia district, Bangladesh under 4 treatments of feeds and weeds as T0: rice bran, wheat bran and mustard oilcake; T1: Azolla; T2: Grass and T3: Banana leaf. Each treatment had 3 replications. Mean initial stocking weight of fishes like Hypophthalmichthyes molitrix, Catla catla, Labeo rohita, Cirrhinus mrigala, Cyprinus carpio, Ctenopharyngodon idella and Barbonymus gonionotus was 62, 64, 57, 54, 63, 65 and 25 g, respectively. Stocking density (11,115 fishes/ha), liming (250 kg/ha), basal fertilization (Cowdung, 1,500 kg/ha; urea, 60 kg/ha; and Triple Super Phosphate, TSP 60 kg/ha) and periodic fertilization (Urea, 2.5 kg/ha/day; TSP, 2.5 kg/ha/day) were same for all the treatments. Water quality parameters (water temperature, transparency, dissolved oxygen, pH, alkalinity and free carbon dioxide) were monitored fortnightly and fish growth parameters (weight gain and Specific Growth Rate, SGR) were monitored monthly. Treatments did not vary significantly for the mean water quality parameters. Treatment T0 varied more significantly for the mean final weight, weight gain, SGR, survival rate and yield for almost all the species except C. idella and B. gonionotus. Significantly highest CBR was recorded with treatment T1.

Published: May 2022

The semaphore crab Ilyoplax sayajiraoi is a newly discovered species distributed in the Gulf of Khambhat, Gujarat, India. Consequently, almost no information is available regarding its population structure. The distribution of species is limited to upper most reaches of the gulf and thus any alteration in the habitat will eventually affect its population. Studies on the population structure of I. sayajiraoi will provide baseline data for future studies and probably, it has potential to serve as a bioindicator species. Morphometric measurements of the carapace (width and length), cheliped and body weight were measured for specimens, collected monthly. The growth was not isometric, demonstrating a significant difference in carapace of males and females, giving sexual dimorphism. Relationship established between carapace width and weight indicate that species is allometric in nature. Sex ratio was 1.3 : 1 (M : F). Ovigerous female and juvenile recruitment showed a bimodal distribution pattern for maintaining the overall size of population.

The emergence of multiple drug-resistant pathogens, affecting aquaculture and public health, has put the spotlight on alternative medicine research. This study was conducted to evaluate the In vitro and In vivo antibacterial activity of mangrove ethanolic leaf extract (MLEE) against Salmonella arizonae isolated from Carassius auratus. In vitro, antimicrobial activity of 10 mangrove species and 13 commercial antibiotics were determined using the agar diffusion method. MLEE with the highest antimicrobial activity were subjected to qualitative phytochemical tests and bioassay experiments. In vivo antibacterial activity of MLEE was assessed using C. auratus intraperitoneally injected with S. arizonae. Results showed that Sonneratia alba has the highest antimicrobial activity against S. arizonae followed by Avicennia marina, A. officinalis, Sonneratia ovata, Rhizophora mucronata, Excoecaria agallocha, and Bruguiera cylindrica. However, bacterial isolate was resistant to A. rhumpiana, Scyphiphora hydrophyllacea, and Laguncularia racemosa. Interestingly, S. alba has comparable antimicrobial activity with amoxicillin, trimethoprim, novobiocin, and cefixime. The activity of S. alba could be attributed to the presence of flavonoids, saponin, sterols, tannin, and terpenoids. Moreover, S. alba has reduced and delayed the onset of goldfish mortality infected with S. arizonae. Based on these findings, the S. alba MLEE, is a potential antimicrobial resource against S. arizonae.

Published: May 2022

Effects of salt, chili and turmeric powder on the production of high quality dried fish products from Bombay duck (Harpodon nehereus) under open sun drying was investigated. Five different types of dried products (T1-T5) were produced and studied. Moisture content in T3 decreased more rapidly to below 16% within 28 hrs of drying compared to those treated with other treatments (temperature varies from 24.6°C to 34°C and relative humidity varies between 60% and 48%) . Drying process was very slow in control samples where it took 32 hrs for reaching the moisture level to 18.75%. Both turmeric and chili powders had strong repellency effect against insect infestation. Bombay duck treated with salt and herbal products were less infested by the blowfly whereas samples dried under control treatment were severely infested by blowfly.

Aeromonas hydrophila, a bacterial pathogen, was isolated form Pangasius hypophthalmus. For pathogenicity test, different doses were injected intramuscularly in Barbonymus gonionotus. Crude extracts were prepared from various parts Azadirachta indica, Curcuma longa, C. zedoaria, and Callotropis gigentia and applied to B. gonionotus for 7 days. Bath treatment was done up to their tolerance level and well ventilation was confirmed for aeration and 50% water was exchanged daily. Minimum inhibitory dose was detected as 7 mg/ml. High inhibitory effect was observed in case of A. indica and mixed extract of A. indica and C. gigentia. Both A. indica and C. gigentia showed the best result with 90-95% recovery of infected fish at a dose of 7 mg/l. C. zedoaria showed moderate to weak effect with 50-60% recovery at the same dose. The present study showed that medicinal plants would be an effective control measure against A. hydrophila.

Published: May 2022

The nutritional and anti-nutritive composition of Karaya gum tree (Sterculia setigera) seed collected from Federal College of Wildlife Management estate, New Bussa, Nigeria was evaluated from October to December, 2013 with the aim of providing data that will guide the effective utilization and inclusion of this under exploited tropical plant seed in fish feed formulation. The seeds were washed, dried, grounded and analyzed for the proximate composition, vitamin and mineral contents as well as the anti-nutritive factors using standard procedures. The result showed that the mean values for the proximate composition were: moisture 5.20%, ash 3.95%, fat 26.03%, fiber 6.15%, protein 13.39% and carbohydrate 45.27%. The plant also contained vitamins and relatively adequate essential mineral elements of nutritional importance of macro elements such as calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium and micro elements of iron, manganese, zinc and copper. Some anti-nutritional factor such as; alkaloids, phytate, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, steroids and trace of oxalate were also found in the plant, but their composition will pose no serious nutritional problem if well processed before its inclusion in fish diet and could therefore be a cheap source of raw materials for the fortification applications in various fish feed formulations.
Pandemic governance: Developing a politics of informality
Authors: van Wyk D. Trevor , Reddy Vasu 
Published: May 2022

South Africa had the privilege of learning from how other countries responded to the crisis engendered by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this opportunity seems to have been lost as the South African government made the mistake of transposing a developed world preventive response onto a largely developing-world populace. The government failed to map out how factors such as South Africa’s demographic composition, spatial architecture, the incidence of poverty and informality, and competing epidemics would interact synergistically and shape epidemiological outcomes. In this article shaped by sociological insights, we show how the application of governance systems can give rise to many unintended social consequences when the knowledge forms upon which they are based are not suitably tailored to meet the needs of the specific local context. We highlight how informality can play a valuable role in fighting the COVID crisis and suggest that, to truly succeed, the government should include rather than override informal principles of governance.
Significance:
We present a brief comparative analysis of the responses of different nation states to the COVID-19 pandemic. The insights contribute to the sociological literature as well as to other disciplines, highlighting how local contextual factors are (re)shaping the form of policy responses as well as their associated consequences. More specifically, we focus on the importance of adopting a political economy approach in the analysis of informality and motivate how and why this may be useful for consideration in areas related to policy development and governance more broadly.
The Impact of Constitutional Norms and Principles on Constitutional Economics
Authors: Protsevskiy V. A. , Gorlov E. V. , Zaporozhets S. A. 
Published: May 2022

The paper considers the problems of constitutional and legal regulation in the sphere of the Russian economy; the thesis that the Constitution of the Russian Federation defines the essential features of the economy is investigated and substantiated. On the one hand, the effectiveness of constitutional legal norms depends on the state of the economy, and on the other hand, it is possible to ensure the effectiveness of the economy only through constitutional norms (norms-principles).The paper examines the genesis of constitutional legal regulation in the field of economic relations. The norms and principles enshrined in the Soviet constitutions are analyzed. The foundations of the economic system in the Soviet period were characterized by the absence of private property rights, free competition and other economic principles. Proclamation of the new economic policy in the 20s of the 20th century entailed the formation and development of private law trends. Many of its supporters were subjected to repression in the 30s of the 20th century. The adoption of the new Constitution in 1993 led to the emergence of new directions in social development and the formation of principles in legal regulation in the economic sphere. The fundamental principles of the Constitution of the Russian Federation have the most powerful influence on the development of market relations. They determine the effectiveness of the state system, state regulation of the economy, establish the economic and social functions of the state. The place and role of the constitutional economy in the system of legal reality of Russia are determined. The constitutional foundations of the state are considered as elements of legal reality. The steady expansion of the subject of constitutional regulation in the aspect of economic relations is noted. The Constitution does not just set general standards for the regulation and development of the economic sphere, but influences the norms of other branches of law in such a way that they acquire constitutional and legal content and should be interpreted in the light of constitutional values.
Sustainable Development Law: Essence, Subject and Methodology
Authors: Mazhorina M. V. 
Published: May 2022

Any paradigmatic social shifts are accompanied with changes in the law. The trend towards sustainable development in a sense replaces the trend towards globalization, turning today into a solo social agenda. The law should not develop in a post-factum logic, but work ahead of the curve, especially if we want to achieve country leadership.Sustainable development law, being a superstructure over a society that is being rebuilt in the spirit of sustainable development, becomes a supernova concept, an interdisciplinary, supra-sectoral regulatory array that undermines the foundations of legal architecture and taxonomy.Sustainable development law is not reducible to environmental, climate, international law; it incorporates the principles and individual institutions of civil, investment, financial, banking, labor, corporate, private international law and other branches. It is compound and complex and requires the formation of a new multi-recognition core. The role of lawyers is to normalize the ongoing processes and build an up-to-date architecture of law, taking into account state and public strategic interests. This requires the formation of a sustainable development law doctrine, the development of regulatory models in the field of transition to a green and low-carbon economy and energy, alternative energy sources, climate security, «green» financing and investment, in the field of business sustainability, the implementation of social policy and new management patterns.The paper analyzes the subject of sustainable development law, attempts to formulate the concept of sustainable development law, and searches for a methodology. The scientific search for a theoretical foundation for the law of sustainable development leads to the assumption that it is possible to study the latter through the prism of the scientific concept of the legal understanding of the American jurist Scott Shapiro, built around the legal theory of planning.

Published: May 2022

Antecedentes: Las condiciones económicas y sociales de los habitantes de calle tienen repercusiones en el acceso a los servicios sanitarios y la calidad de la atención recibida. Conocer la percepción del habitante de calle ayuda a ofrecer cuidado de enfermería de forma oportuna y completa.
Objetivo: Describir la percepción del habitante de calle sobre los cuidados de enfermería.
Metodología: Revisión integrativa de literatura de alcance descriptivo y retrospectivo; se realizó búsqueda en las bases de datos NursingOvid, Academic One File, Informe Académico, PubMed y Scopus. Se construyeron 12 ecuaciones de búsqueda a partir de la combinación de los descriptores: Habitante de calle, personas sin hogar, percepciones sociales, enfermería y atención de enfermería.
Resultados: Se seleccionaron 30 artículos que se sometieron a lectura y análisis a profundidad obteniendo las percepciones de los habitantes de calle frente al cuidado de enfermería.
Conclusiones: La percepción del habitante de calle sobre los cuidados de enfermería resulta fluctuante porque existen barreras de acceso que dificultan la atención; los profesionales de salud desconocen las necesidades de esta población y las políticas públicas resultan insuficientes en cuanto a cobertura y oportunidad de los servicios de salud lo cual repercute directamente en el cuidado de enfermería.
