Purpose: Rickets is one of the most common diseases of childhood and is more prevalent in the developing countries. It affects the rapid growth phase of the children. Rickets is affected by different factors which are understudied in Pakistan. This study aimed to identify the risk factors that lead to rickets in children under five years of age among diagnosed cases of the nutritional rickets. This may cause reduction in the incidence of the rickets by prevention of the factors that lead to rickets in the children.
Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed in the pediatric outpatients department of the Holy Family Hospital, Rawalpindi, Pakistan for 1 year from June 2021 to June 2022 on 132 diagnosed cases of the nutritional rickets. Patients were enrolled via non- probability convenient sampling technique and a set developed inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data was collected through self-structured questionnaire after taking informed consent. Data analysis was done through SPSS version 25.
Findings: Nutritional rickets was more common among children who had, age range from 1 to 3 years group (64.39%), male gender (68.94%), lower socioeconomic status (55.30%), exclusive breastfeeding (70.45%), cow’s milk use (71.96%), no sunlight exposure (66.67%), shorter duration of sunlight exposure (57.58%) fully dressed during sunlight exposure (40.90%), no oil massage during sunlight exposure (63.30%), poor nutritional status (72.73%), and mothers with poor nutritional status (69.70%). In short, age group with range 1 to 3 years, male gender, lower socioeconomic status, exclusive breastfeeding, cow’s milk use, no sunlight exposure, shorter duration of sunlight exposure, fully dressed during sunlight exposure, no oil massage during sunlight exposure, child poor nutritional status, and mothers with poor nutritional status, all raise the of the nutritional rickets in children of under five years age.
Recommendations: Supplements should be added in the diet of children during breastfeeding. Also, there should be adequate sunlight exposure of children. Finally, malnutrition of both children and mothers should be treated.

Published: August 2022

Visando entender a influência morfoestrutural e morfotectônica na evolução do relevo do extremo oeste catarinense a partir de imagem de radar (SRTM-30M) foram interpretados lineamentos geomorfológicos, correlacionados com falhas/fraturas e falhas inferidas. Assim como, elaborados perfis topográficos sobre os quais foram plotadas as formações geológicas e os lineamentos estruturais (falhas/fraturas e falhas inferidas). Essa análise mostrou que os trends NW foram mais importantes para a geomorfologia regional, principalmente, para o arranjo da rede de drenagem. Nos perfis topográficos percebeu-se a boa correlação dos fundos de vale mais dissecados com os lineamentos estruturais. Além disso essa análise mostra que os derrames basálticos têm papel importante na estruturação do relevo, condicionando em muitos casos rupturas e patamares topográficos.

Published: August 2022

The Canadian Bleeding Disorders Registry (CBDR) has become the national registry for comprehensive care and research in hemophilia in Canada with patient, clinical, and research module connectivity.
The CBDR has served as a robust resource to inform epidemiology of disease, burden of disease, and disease changes and variation over time as new treatment modalities are introduced.
Information on the utilization of blood products to treat hemophilia has and can be retrieved and used by Canadian blood product procurement agencies to inform decision-making for past and future purchases.
The successful multistakeholder coordination and alignment achieved over decades with the development and function of the CBDR is an exemplar that could be extended to other rare disease areas.
Temperature and CCN sensitivity of orographic precipitation enhanced by a mixed-phase seeder-feeder mechanism
Authors: Thomas Julia , Barrett Andrew , Hoose Corinna 
Published: August 2022

Abstract. Orographic precipitation is a key driver of flooding in mountainous areas. This article investigates the microphysical response of orographic rainfall to perturbations of temperature and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentration. The study is motivated by the increased water vapour capacity of the atmosphere in a warming climate and the increasing frequency of extreme rainfall events. A case study for the Cumbria flood in December 2015 is performed with sensitivities using a realization of the `piggybacking' method implemented into a limited-area setup of the ICON model. A 6 % K-1 enhancement of rainfall results for the highest altitudes, caused by a `mixed-phase seeder-feeder mechanism', i.e. the interplay of melting and accretion. Total 24 h rainfall is found to increase by only 2 % K-1, significantly less than the 7 % K-1 increase in atmospheric water vapour. A rain budget analysis reveals that the negative temperature sensitivity of the condensation ratio and the increase of rain evaporation dampen the rainfall enhancement. Decreasing the CCN concentration speeds up the microphysical processing, which leads to an increase in total rainfall. At low CCN concentration the rainfall sensitivity to temperature is systematically smaller. It is shown that the CCN and temperature sensitivities are to a large extent independent (with a ±3 % relative error) and additive.

Abstract. Few studies have focused on Arenosols with regard to soil carbon dynamics despite the fact that they represent 7 % of the world's soils and are present in key areas where food security is a major issue (e.g., in Sahelian regions). As for other soil types, land use changes (from forest or grassland to cropland) lead to a loss of substantial soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and have a lasting impact on the SOC turnover. Here we quantified long-term variations in carbon stocks and their dynamics in a 80 cm deep Mediterranean Arenosol that had undergone a forest-to-vineyard land use change over a 100 years ago. Paired sites of adjacent plots combined with carbon and nitrogen quantification and natural radiocarbon (14C) abundance analyses revealed a C stock of 53 t ha−1 in the 0–30 cm forest soil horizon, which was reduced to 3 t ha−1 after long-term grape cultivation. Total organic carbon in the vineyard was dramatically low, with around 1 g C kg−1, and there was no vertical gradient as a function of depth. 14C showed that deep plowing (50 cm) in the vineyard plot redistributed the remaining carbon both vertically and horizontally. This remaining carbon was old (compared to that of the forest), which had a C:N ratio characteristic of microbial organic matter and was probably stabilized within organomineral associations. Despite the drastic degradation of the organic matter (OM) pool in this Arenosol, this soil would have a high carbon storage potential if agricultural practices, such as grassing or organic amendment applications, were to be implemented within the framework of the 4 per 1000 initiative.

Current status and related risk factors of abomasal nematodes in calves using Mini-FlOTAC as a new technique in Mosul city, Iraq
Authors: Shihab Hassan Hekmat , Hassan Sadam Dhahir 
Published: August 2022

With ongoing climatic alternation, ignoring the influence of repellent resistance, and lack of planned treatment in many countries, the intensity and impact of gastrointestinal nematodes GIN were dramatically increased. The Mini-FLOTAC method for laboratory analysis is presented in the current investigation and is initially suggested to estimate the prevalence of abomasal nematodes and related predisposing factors in calves in Mosul, Iraq. Between October 2021 to the end of April 2022, a cross-sectional study involved several areas, and 480 fecal samples were examined. Animal data, and observed clinical signs documented during sampling. The outcome of this work indicates that the total prevalence of GIN was 50.6%. The infection rate of abomasal nematodes Haemonchus spp., Ostertagia spp., and Trichostrongylus spp. was 62.13%, 60.9%, and 54.73%, respectively. The findings related to epidemiological risk factors demonstrated that animals aged <1 year and herd size >40 were more likely to be infected with abomasal nematodes, whilst gender, origin, and zone characteristics had no significant influence. Ultimately, calves in Mosul are frequently infected with abomasal nematodes of veterinary interest (Haemonchus and Ostertagia spp.). These nematode distributions are clearly influenced by the animals' ages and the size of their herds.

Authors: Jasim Hayder H , Aloosi Suha N 
Published: August 2022

Objective: The purpose of this research was to adapt a normal or undersized implant preparation protocol for different bone densities depending on the density measure (Implant stability quotient ISQ, Newton centimeter NCM) and from Cone Beam Computed Tomography reading pre-surgically. To eliminate the need for practice and experience in inserting implants in poor bone quality areas to enhance implant primary stability and survival rate. Material and methods: Fifty-nine patients were selected for inclusion in the study. A total of fifty-nine implants were placed. Insertion torque data were recorded, resonance frequency analysis measurements were taken at first stage surgery, and Hounsfield Unit HU was assessed before surgery and kept hidden to prevent bias. The implant preparation protocol divided the patients into two groups whether standard or undersized, which was determined according to the tactile sensation of the operator. Depending on primary stability measures (ISQ, NCM) samples were divided into 4 subgroups. Finally, HU measurements were taken from subgroups with high stability measures to assess whether to do a standard or underprepared surgical preparation. Result: the result showed a positive and strong correlation with a high significance between ISQ, HU, and insertion torque.
