The frequency of caesarean sections has been gradually increasing in the past several decades. The usage of transperineal ultrasound (TPU) has been increasing. Many studies have demonstrated that TPU can provide valuable information for the clinician. Objective: To assess the role of transperineal ultrasound in fetal head engagement as indication of caesarean section taking mode of delivery as gold standard. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in Radiology Department of Nawaz Medicare and DHQ hospital, Faisalabad. Written consent was taken from all patients before the ultrasound examination. Patients were assessed for eligibility in inclusion criteria. Confirmation of intrauterine living pregnancy, placenta site, fetal presentation, liquor amount and gestational age was done with routine obstetric ultrasound. Enrolled pregnant patients at term were assessed for the fetal head-perineal distance and cervical length by TPU examination. Results: One hundred and twenty-four (124) women participated in the investigation. Maternal age and gestational age were not determinants of outcomes of labor. Fetal head-perineal distance measured by TPU had a test sensitivity of 88.31 %, specificity of 78.72 %, the positive predictive value is 87.18%, the negative predictive value is 80.43% and diagnostic accuracy is 84.68%. Conclusions: The findings of this study shows that head perineal distance measured by TPU have higher sensitivity and is a non-invasive method which provides valuable objective measurements for fetal head engagement in primigravida at term and can be easily accepted and tolerated by women. Also, unnecessary caesarean section rate can be reduced by timely decision.

RT-PCR is a gold standard test for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV2 (Covid-19) infection; however, it is an expensive, time consuming and technical demanding technique. Rapid antigen detection immunoassay (RAD) is cost-effective, quick as well as can be performed and interpreted easily. The rapid diagnosis of COVID-19 patients is essential to reduce cost and control the disease spread; however, the real world data of these tests must be validated with RT-PCR before they can be used at large scale. The objective of this study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity of PanbioTMCOVID-19 Ag-Rapid test device (Abbot) with multiplex RT-PCR. METHODS: A total of n=3509 samples were tested for SARS-CoV-2 RAD and RT-PCR at Institute of Biomedical and Genetic Engineering, Islamabad. The rapid antigen tests were performed by PanbioTMCOVID-19 Ag-Rapid test device (Abbott) and compared with RT-PCR performed on Thermo Fisher (ABI) Quant Studio 5 using CDC 2019-nCoV RT-PCR protocol. RESULTS: Total (n=3509), n=458 (7.60%) samples were reported positive by rapid antigen out of which n= 445 RT-PCR positive (13 false positive by rapid antigen), n=3051 (92.4%) were negative. True antigen negative tests n= 3051) were repeated with RT-PCR among these, n=25 were observed RT-PCR positive (rapid antigen false negative). The threshold cycle (CT) for the RT-PCR tests of these samples was >30. CONCLUSION: PanbioTMCOVID-19 Ag-Rapid test devices (Abbott) showed a sensitivity ratio 94.6% compared to RT-PCR. The PanbioTMCOVID-19 Ag-Rapid test device (Abbott) is reliable and can be used for screening and isolation of positive patients from the population.

Tiongkok sebagai salah satu negara terbesar di dunia dengan populasi terbesar dan negara ekonomi terbesar kedua di dunia. Pada 2013, Presiden Tiongkok Xi Jinping menetapkan jalur perdagangan melalui pembangunan bersama dan kemakmuran dengan meningkatkan kerja sama lintas regional multilateral, yang dapat disebut Jalan Sutra Modern atau One Belt One Road (OBOR). Untuk mendukung OBOR, juga dibentuk Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). Dalam konteks kekuatan ekonomi, AIIB telah berkontribusi dalam meningkatkan dominasi ekonomi Tiongkok di dunia. Munculnya Tiongkok sebagai kekuatan global baru dalam beberapa dekade terakhir telah meletakkan dasar bagi perkembangan ekonominya yang kuat, yang menghasilkan modal yang kuat dalam perangkat dan kapasitas untuk membangun infrastruktur yang ditawarkan oleh AIIB.
Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana keberadaan AIIB yang mendukung kerjasama ekonomi menemukan bahwa AIIB dan OBOR merupakan upaya kuat Tiongkok untuk mendapatkan dominasi ekonomi. Penulis menggunakan teori Geoekonomi dan Kepentingan Nasional menjelaskan bahwa AIIB memiliki kelebihan yaitu kerjasama global yang memberikan dana yang besar bagi anggotanya dengan mengadakan perjanjian internasional dengan Tiongkok sebesar USD 150 Milyar atau setara dengan Rp 2.137,6 triliun per tahun yang dapat dipinjamkan oleh negara-negara peserta untuk membangun infrastruktur. Namun, keberadaan AIIB menunjukkan agenda tersembunyi sebagai upaya Tiongkok untuk mengubah dominasi Amerika Serikat. Selain itu, ada atas keberadaan Jebakan Hutang Tiongkok (China Debt Trap) yang menyebabkan ketakutan terhadap AIIB.

This research aims to investigate the possibility of synthesis of graphene from food and agricultural waste materials by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). The starting materials including coconut shells and cricket legs were used to synthesize graphene. The synthesized graphene specimens were characterized by Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, Dispersive Raman spectroscopy, SEM, and TEM. Both resultant graphene samples: coconut shells and cricket legs showed graphene characteristics with the maximum wavelength of UV spectrum of synthesized graphene in ethanol at ~244 nm comparable with a standard graphene. The graphene characteristics of coconut shells and cricket legs were also confirmed by XRD showing (002) peak at 2θ≈26°. The SEM images showed lamella structure and wrinkle texture, demonstrating the multilayered microstructure and crumpled sheets and folded sheets. The TEM images also confirmed the layered sheets restacking structure with the different numbers of sheets and expressed that the graphene is a semitransparent material. Data obtained from Raman spectroscopy indicated that the defect of structure band or D-band at 1,340 – 1,380 cm–1, the graphite band or G-band at 1,500 – 1,600 cm–1 corresponding to sp2 of carbon atom, the graphene band or 2D-band at 2,500 – 2,600 cm–1 showing that the structure of graphene is a multilayer with small sizes and the overtone band of graphite or 2G - band at 3,100 – 3,200 cm–1. On the basis of the result, graphene was possibly synthesized from coconut shells and cricket legs.

In this research, the electrical and optical properties of nanostructured Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) films were investigated. The ITO films were deposited by ion assisted e-beam evaporation with the glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technique on commercial ITO substrates, followed by annealing treatment. The results of crystal structure showed that the nanostructured ITO films are polycrystalline and cubic bixbyite structure (222). The sheet resistance and average transmission at the visible region were 12.17 W sq−1 and 89 %, respectively. The films presented the lowest resistivity and good transparency, where the sheet resistance and an average transmittance were 11.21 W sq−1 and 91% after annealing. The omnidirectional characteristics for a wide range of incident angle (0 − 80°) of nanostructured ITO film which was annealed at 300 °C had higher optical transmission than ﬁlms without annealing. This work eventually proved that the plasma treatments have effectively promoted the performance of the dye-sensitized solar cells and confirmed their potentials in the real-world applications.
