Published: May 2022

This paper examines the feasibility of using friction surfacing to deposit Aluminum alloy AA6061 material over an AISI 1017 steel substrate. Further, this work aims to identify the deposition speed settings that would improve the effectiveness of the process. Consumable AA6061-T6 rods were deposited at different combinations of rotational and travel speeds while maintaining the same axial pressing force. The experiment involved 12 speed combinations with 3 replicates from each combination. Quantitative and qualitative methods were used to evaluate speed effects on the overall deposition quality. The evaluation involved different quality indicators including deposition efficiency and stability, surface roughness, deposit hardness and microstructure. Analysis has shown that the rotational speed is the primary factor that significantly affects all of the studied indicators. The travel speed, on the other hand, was found to have significant effects only on deposition efficiency and material hardness.

Authors: Kanaley Rebecca L. , Gillette Cheryl , Schriefer Jan , Gottfried Julie Albright , Bramley John 
Published: May 2022

HighlightsAbstractBackground:First-attempt success rate for placing pediatric peripheral intravenous (PIV) catheters ranges from to 24% to 52%. Multiple attempts can increase risk of deleterious outcomes. It is essential to screen pediatric patients appropriately to identify those who will require additional resources for successful PIV placement.Methods:A convenience sample of hospitalized pediatric patients 0 to 18 years of age on a general care unit was used in this performance improvement project. Prior to attempting PIV access, nurses completed a data collection tool that included elements of established difficult intravenous access (DIVA) tools as well as first-attempt successful PIV placement. The primary outcome measure was to determine if each DIVA scoring tool is accurate in predicting the need for additional resources to achieve successful first-attempt PIV placement. The secondary outcome measure was to compare the predictive value of each DIVA scoring tool among an inpatient pediatric population. Following data exploration and cleaning, a correlation analysis was performed with logistic regression to assess DIVA score effectiveness in predicting success of PIV insertion on the first attempt.Results:Out of 133 children, 167 PIV attempts were analyzed with 150 PIV attempts included in the final data analysis. Of the 150 PIV attempts analyzed, 60% (n = 90) were successful on the first attempt. Performance of prediction for first-time insertion success was comparable among all 4 DIVA scoring tools.Conclusions:None of the 4 DIVA scoring tools were superior in predicting first-time PIV placement among hospitalized children. Vein palpability was more predictive, although not statistically significant.

SUMMARY

Objective
This study was designed to evaluate the effects of charcoal toothpaste on the surface roughness, color stability, and marginal staining of resin composite restorations.

Methods
A total of 100 bovine incisors was collected. The crowns were sectioned and randomly divided into 10 groups (n=10) according to two study factors: toothpaste groups and nanoparticle resin composite groups. Five toothpastes—Bianco Pro Clinical (Bianco Oral Care, Uberlândia, MG, Brazil) - Control group; Bianco Carbon (Bianco Oral Care); NAT, Natural Suavetex Carvão Ativado (Suavetex, Uberlândia, MG, Brazil); Nano Action Black Be Emotion (Polishop, Jundiaí, SP, Brazil); and BIW, Black is White (Curaprox, Curaden AG, Kriens, Switzerland)—and two resin composites—Z350XT (Filtek Z350XT, 3M Oral Care) and Vittra (Vittra APS FGM, Joinville, SC, Brazil)—were used. Circular cavities with a diameter of 4 mm and a depth of 1 mm were prepared on the buccal face of the tooth crowns and restored with resin composites. The specimens were subjected to three months of simulated toothbrushing. The surface roughness (right angle [Ra], in micrometers [μm]) of the resin composites was measured before and after toothbrushing in five areas per specimen. The resin composite color and luminosity changes (ΔE and ΔL, respectively) were measured using reflectance spectroscopy (Vita EasyShade). Macro photographs were taken before and after toothbrushing to qualitatively analyze the marginal staining (MSt) of the resin composite restorations. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed before and after the simulated toothbrushing. Ra data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance with repeated measures and the Tukey HSD test; MSt was analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests (α=0.05), and the resin composite color change was analyzed using the clinically unacceptable level of ΔE &gt; 3.3.

Results
Simulated brushing increased Ra irrespective of the resin composite or toothpaste used. No significant differences were found in Ra between the control group and all groups on which the charcoal toothpastes were tested. A clinically unacceptable level of resin composite color change (ΔE&gt;3.3) was found after the use of most charcoal toothpastes. Use of Bianco Carbon resulted in marginal staining similar to that of the control group and was lower than that of the other charcoal toothpastes. Vittra brushed with black toothpaste showed the highest marginal staining.

Conclusion
Use of charcoal toothpaste resulted in Ra values of resin composites similar to those found with conventional toothpastes. Charcoal toothpaste generally resulted in clinical resin composite color changes (ΔE). All charcoal toothpastes, except Bianco Carbon, caused marginal staining of the resin composite restorations.

Published: May 2022

SUMMARY

Objectives
To evaluate the effect of argon plasma treatment (PLA) when combined with sandblasting (SAN), silanization (SIL), and hydrophobic bonding resin (HBR) on the shear bond strength (SBS) of a two-year water-aged resin composite bonded to a newly placed composite after 24 hours and one year of water-storage.

Methods and Materials
Thirty-six light-cured composite plates (20mm x 20mm x 4mm thick) were obtained and stored at 37°C in distilled water for 2 years. These aged plates were distributed into 6 groups (n=6) according to the surface treatment: no treatment (Negative Control); SAN+SIL+HBR (Positive Control); SAN+PLA+SIL+HBR; PLA+ SIL+HBR; PLA+SIL; PLA+HBR. Fresh resin composite cylinders were built up using silicone molds (hole: 1.5 mm high x 1.5 mm diameter) positioned over the aged plates. Half of the SBS samples were stored in distilled water for 24 hours and loaded until failure, while the other half were stored for 1 year before being tested. Data were submitted to two-way analysis of variance and post-hoc Tukey Test (preset alpha of 0.05).

Results
Positive Control, SAN+PLA+SIL+HBR and PLA+SIL+HBR groups presented higher SBS means at the 24 hour evaluation. After 1 year of water storage, all groups demonstrated significant SBS reduction, with the SAN+PLA+SIL+HBR group presenting the highest SBS.

Conclusions
Resin plasma treatment in combination with other surface treatments can improve the SBS of composite repairs after one year of water storage. The SBS of the composite repair was not stable over time regardless of the surface treatment.

Published: May 2022

Before detergent was commonly used, a natural cleanser which function is to help people to clean several things in their houses was Lerak berry (Sapindus Rarak DC). This berry contains saponins (28%) which can be used as the ingredient for shampoo, soap, and other kind of cleaning agents. Dilutting Lerak juice into soap base will produce liquid washing soap which can be an alternative to reduce the use of detergents. This study aims at finding the best treatment, balance ratio of Lerak juice (2:1; 3:2; 1:1; 2:3), and diluting method for the soap base (heating and non-heating) to be used for producing liquid washing soaps with the best characteristic. This study uses two-factor randomized block design method which later be analyzed using ANOVA. Organoleptic testing of the hedonic quality to the color, scent, foam quantity, cleaning-power, the after-effects impression, and the general assessment of the liquid washing soaps results a 2:1 Lerak juice balance ratio with heating method is found to be the best treatment for diluting method. The balance ratio affects the consistency and viscosity which also affects the density, pH, and water holding capacity, but does not affect the foam’s stability.

Chicken meat has a high nutrient content. However, its quality is easy to be degraded. The degradation is normally characterized by the formation of metabolite gases (NH3 and H2S) as deterioration indicators. Sensors detect phenomena better than human senses. This study aimed to classify meat quality based on gas formation during meat storage. In addition, a kinetics model of gas changes was determined. The gases were detected using a set of equipment consisting of Raspberry Pi and Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors. Samples were put in a 10 x 10 x 10 (cm) black container. MOS sensors were put inside the box to detect the gases at room temperature for 24 hours, with data collection being recorded every hour. Obtained data were then analyzed using Principle Component Analysis (PCA) for quality classification. The study showed that the quality of chicken meat was classified into three groups with a total variance of more than 95%. PC1 explained 88.2%, and PC2 explained 9.0%. The constant rate of H2S and NH3 changes followed the first-order kinetics with a constant rate of 0.2641 and 0.2925, respectively. The equation for H2S and NH3 changes were Ct=1.70 e0.2641 t and Ct=1.00 e0.2925 t, respectively. Keywords: Chicken meat, Freshness, H2S gas, NH3 gas, Sensor
El disegno en los siglos XVI y XVII

Published: May 2022

Uno de los conceptos más complejos del vocabulario artístico renacentista y barroco es el de disegno. Como tantos otros términos, su formulación original se atribuye al pintor, arquitecto, urbanista y teórico Giorgio Vasari, fi el seguidor de Miguel Ángel y primer historiador del arte con su obra Le Vite de’ più eccellenti Architetti, Pittori et Scultori italiani da Cimabue insino à tempi nostri descritte in lingua Toscana da Giorgio Vasari pittore Artetino...
La mayor originalidad vasariana en el ámbito teórico del sistema de las artes es el desarrollo del concepto de las arti del disegno, que señala el parentesco entre las tres artes visuales por medio de un origen común, y en la práctica. Esta valoración esencial del disegno en Vasari tiene su culminación en la creación de la Accademia del Disegno en Florencia y al servicio del Gran Duque Cosme I de Médicis.
La litografía artística para uso comercial en Málaga
Authors: Del Río Pilar 
Published: May 2022

Las primeras imprentas litográficas malagueñas aparecen hacia 1825. Si en un principio los medios que se utilizaban para las publicaciones eran bastante rudimentarios, a medida que la imagen va adquiriendo importancia, se van perfeccionando y modernizando. A partir de 1880 comienza a generalizarse el uso de las rotativas, muchos talleres ven la necesidad de ponerse al día para satisfacer a un público que demandaba cada vez mayor cantidad de impresos publicitarios para divulgar sus productos.
En Málaga existió una interesante producción litográfica desde la década de 1830, centrada en el papel pintado, reproducción de estampas religiosas y conmemorativas, naipes y decoración de abanicos. De todo ello la ciudad exportaba grandes cantidades. Pero fue la necesidad creciente de papel impreso para las empresas (carteles publicitarios, etiquetas, papel de oficina, etc.), lo que realmente determinó el extraordinario desarrollo de la actividad litográfica e impresora en nuestra ciudad.
El diseño en la era de la información

El informe Cox, una investigación realizada por el Design Council de Gran Bretaña y publicada en 2005, define el diseño como: “lo que enlaza creatividad e innovación. Da forma a las ideas para que se conviertan en propuestas prácticas y atractivas para los usuarios o los clientes. El diseño puede describirse como la creatividad empleada para un fin específico”.
Hoy en día el diseño se abre a otras posibilidades antes no contempladas. Esto no significa, sin embargo, negar la naturaleza industrial del diseño, que puede y debe colaborar en la redefinición del propio concepto de industria. En todo caso, hay que admitir que nos encontramos en un periodo de cambio necesario para todas las áreas y ámbitos del diseño, provocado fundamentalmente por la situación social y económica en la que actualmente tiene que desenvolverse, aunque sin perder de vista que la disciplina comenzó a poner en cuestión sus propios paradigmas, especialmente en los últimos treinta años del siglo XX.

Supplemental reflective blankets and wool socks help maintain body temperature in dogs undergoing celiotomy procedures: a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial
Authors: O’Neil Bridget A. , Linklater Andrew K. J. 
Published: May 2022

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To compare results for body (esophageal) temperature measurements obtained during celiotomy in normothermic (presurgical) canine patients receiving routine heat support versus routine heat support plus supplemental support (consisting of covering the thorax in a reflective blanket and placing reflective blankets plus wool socks on 3 limbs) in a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial.

ANIMALS
44 dogs requiring celiotomy that were presented sequentially to an emergency and specialty referral veterinary hospital.

PROCEDURES
The 44 dogs undergoing celiotomy were randomly assigned to 2 groups. The control group received routine intraoperative heat support consisting of a circulating warm water blanket and either a towel or blanket. The supplemental group received the same routine heat support plus a reflective blanket covering the cervical and thoracic regions and reflective blankets wrapped around 3 limbs and covered with wool socks from the digits to the axillary or inguinal region.

RESULTS
Mean esophageal temperature for both the control and supplemental groups dropped throughout celiotomy. Esophageal temperature measurements at several time points were significantly higher for the supplemental group than for the control group. The lowest temperature measurement for the supplemental group, adjusted for initial esophageal temperature and procedure duration, was significantly higher by 0.8 °C than that for the control group.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Covering the cervical and thoracic regions with a reflective blanket and wrapping limbs in reflective blankets and wool socks is an affordable adjunctive method to provide passive heat support and minimize perioperative hypothermia in canine patients undergoing celiotomy.
