Abstract

Background: Head injury is considered as a major health problem in developed and developing nations. Analysis of etiology, patterns, and outcome of head injury in trauma patient is essential for understanding and planning for better management.

Materials and Methods: The prospective observational study carried out among patients who presented with head injury at the tertiary care hospital, Mumbai from July 2015 to July 2017. Demographic details recorded were age, sex, blood pressure on arrival, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, the interval between injury and admission, associated injury, co-morbidities, hospital stay, and outcome.

Results: The age group at which maximum patients of head injury were admitted was 18-29 years (31%) followed by 40-49 years (21%). Eighty one percent patients were males and 19% patients were females, the male to female ratio being 4:1. Road traffic accidents (36% cases) were the commonest cause leading to acute head injury followed by accidental fall (21% cases). 47% patients presented with mild head injury according to GCS.

Conclusion: Head injuries mainly caused by vehicular accidents and affect mainly the young men. Road traffic accidents were the commonest mode of head injury, but railway accident had the worst outcome in our study. Factors associated with outcome were Pre-hospital delay, GCS on arrival, Blood pressure on arrival, Associated injury, Need for ventilator support, CT scan findings.
A Study
of Management of Primary Chalazion in Adults by Intralesional Injection of

Triamcinolone Acetonide
Authors: Akbani Idris 
Published: January 2022

Abstract

Introduction

A chalazion is a common non-effective granuloma of the meibomian glands of eyelids. They are commonly found on the tarsal conjunctival surface and the eyelid margins. It may be ignored by the patients until it reaches a considerable size. Recently the use of intralesional corticosteroids has shown promising results. We in the present study tried to evaluate the outcomes of intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection in the management of Chalazion.

Methods

The current study was carried on Patients with chalazion attending Ophthalmology OPD of Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, [RIMS], Adilabad. Successive patients with small multiple marginal chalazia were included. Patients were selected based on the amenability of treatment with intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injections.

Abstract

Background

COVID-19 vaccines provide concrete hope of mitigating the spread of the virus and enabling countries worldwide to resume financial and social activities disrupted by the pandemic. Several COVID 19 vaccines have already received approval from regulatory bodies across the world, the vaccine roll out has started and many countries are implementing mass vaccination campaigns. This study aims to evaluate the acceptability of COVID-19 vaccines and its predictors, along with the attitudes towards the vaccines among the general population of South India.

Materials and Methods

This study was conducted as an online survey during December 2020 and January 2021. A Self-administered pre-tested questionnaire was used for the survey. Excel 2019 and SPPS 24 were used for statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics were used, and a Chi-square test was performed.

Results

A total of 686 people have participated in this study, with a mean age of 30.4 years. 30.9% of study participants have already been infected with COVID-19. 76.2% responded 'yes' for accepting the COVID-19 vaccine, 69% responded to prefer 'routine' administration of the vaccine, and 50.1% were likely to take the COVID-19 vaccine 'as soon as possible' once available.

Conclusion

Public health authorities and policymakers need to streamline systematic interventions and awareness campaigns to improve the acceptance of COVID 19 vaccines and reduce vaccine hesitancy levels. Vaccination strategy should be targeted at the specific needs and attitudes of the concerned population. Reviving the trust in the vaccination procedures and outcomes and offering transparent information regarding the vaccines' efficacy and safety seem to be particularly importance for the population of our study.
Prioritized Muirhead Mean Aggregation Operators under the Complex Single-Valued Neutrosophic Settings and Their Application in Multi-Attribute Decision-Making
Authors: Mahmood Tahir , Ali Zeeshan 
Published: January 2022

Two critical tasks in multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) are to describe criterion values and to aggregate the described information to generate a ranking of alternatives. A flexible and superior tool for the first task is complex single-valued neutrosophic (CSVN) setting, and a powerful device for the subsequent assignment is aggregation operator. Up until this point, almost 30 diverse aggregation operators of CSVN have been introduced. Every operator has its unmistakable qualities and can function admirably for explicit reasons. Notwithstanding, there is not yet an operator that can give helpful consensus and adaptability in conglomerating rule esteems, managing the heterogeneous interrelationships among models, and decreasing the impact of outrageous basis esteems. In genuine decision-making interaction, there are cases that the interrelationships of contentions do not exist in each one of the contentions, however, in piece of the contentions. Subsequently, there is a need to parcel the contentions into various parts. For this, the technique of prioritized Muirhead mean (PMM) aggregation operator is massive, dominant, and more flexible to investigate the interrelationships between any numbers of objects. The goal of this study is to initiate the CSVN setting and to determine their important algebraic laws. Moreover, to provide such an aggregation operator, the principle of CSVN PMM (CSVNPMM) operator and CSVN prioritized dual Muirhead mean (CSVNPDMM) operator is elaborated, and their particular cases are discussed. Further, based on these operators, we presented a new method to deal with the MADM problems under the fuzzy environment. Finally, we used some practical examples to illustrate the validity and superiority of the proposed method by comparing with other existing methods.

This study examined the effect of manpower planning on organizational performance in the Brewery industry in South-East, Nigeria. The literature review section touched on all the four-main sections of the review which include conceptual review, theoretical framework, theoretical exposition and empirical review. The study adopted descriptive survey design and used summary and descriptive statistics as well as regression analysis as the main tools of analysis. All tests were conducted at 0.05 level of significance. Preliminary results indicated that F-Statistic of 18.029 is statistical significant and as such, the model was considered valid for predictions. The regression coefficient showed that 61.7 percent relationship exists between the dependent and independent variables. The coefficient of determination also showed that 52.9 percent variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the regressors. Major findings are that manpower planning in the area of forecasting to anticipate employees number and skills/expertise level have significant positive effect on organizational performance. It was concluded that human resource planning is very essential for optimal performance in the brewery industry. The study recommended among others that the issue of human resource planning should be treated in the organization with the seriousness that it deserves.

ON MODELS FOR CROSS-WORLD PREDICATION
Authors: Фролов Константин Геннадьевич 
Published: January 2022

Я выдвигаю два методологических возражения против концепции кросс-мировой предикации, которую предлагает Е. Борисов: (1) Данный подход не учитывает того обстоятельства, что истинностный статус утверждений модального дискурса, как правило, интересует нас не в теоретико-модельном смысле, а в смысле истинности simpliciter. При этом данный подход не оставляет нам никакой возможности говорить о модальной эпистемологии и содержательном обосновании модальных утверждений. (2) Данный подход не учитывает роли воображения и ментального моделирования в том, что Е. Борисовым называется «интуитивным пониманием» рассматриваемых им утверждений. Учёт воображения и ментального моделирования, в свою очередь, переводит содержание подавляющего числа рассматриваемых Евгением примеров в разряд эпистемической модальности говорящего. При этом корректный переход от субъективной эпистемической модальности говорящего к любым типам объективных модальностей в рамках подхода Евгения попросту не может быть осуществлён, поскольку такой переход предполагает наличие внятной концепции модальной эпистемологии, чего Евгений нам не предлагает. Истинность любых рассматриваемых им примеров - это истинность на моделях говорящих, то есть на фреймах, в рамках которых говорящие полагают некоторые миры достижимыми из актуального.
I raise two objections to E. Borisov’s methodology for building the theory of cross-world predication: (1) This approach does not take into account the fact that usually we are interested in truth values of modal claims not in the model-theoretical sense, but in the sense of truth simpliciter. However, this approach does not leave us any opportunity to talk about modal truths simpliciter, modal epistemology and substantive truth conditions for modal claims. (2) This approach does not take into account the role of imagination and mental modeling in what E. Borisov calls the ‘intuitive meaning’ of the analysed claims. However, taking into account imagination and mental modeling shows that the vast majority of the cases under consideration deal with epistemic and not alethic modality. In the absence of any modal epistemology we cannot simply postulate the validity of modal truths. Such postulation would be puzzling and unexplainable. And without such postulation of factuality, all the modalities we consider turn out epistemic.
Behaviour of recurving cyclonic storms in Arabian Sea as a response to atmospheric interactions
Authors: SHYAMALA B. , SUDEVAN S. , SHINDE G. M. , BURTE M. D. 
Published: January 2022

During the year 1998, Arabian sea witnessed two distinct and unusual cyc\onic systems. The very severe cyclonic storm of June 1998 was the most severe storm since last fifteen years as far as Arabian Sea systems are concerned; while October 1998 system was unique for, Its unusual and sudden easterly track after almost touching Saudi Arabia coast, (ii) Very high speed of movement and (iii) Interaction and merger with another vortex present in Arabian Sea off Saurashtra coast.

This study is an attempt to understand the peculiar behaviour of the systems in Arabian sea which do not intensify beyond cyclone stage or even show a tendency to weaken before crossing coast as a response to atmospheric interactions. All the cyclonic systems in Arabian Sea since 1975 (Satellite era) have been examined in detail and the main findings of the study are :

(i) Interaction between cyclonic disturbances of different intensities simultaneously present, appears to be the key factor in determining the further intensification or not of the systems.
(ii) Track prediction for the systems upto marginal cyclone stage appears to be governed mainly by middle level atmospheric forcing.
(iii) Upper level wind steering is found to be important for movement of systems from severe cyclonic storm stage onwards.

The above results have direct relevance to operational cyclone forecasting.
Cloud climatology of the Indian Ocean based on ship observations
Authors: RAJEEVAN M. , PRASAD R. K. , DE U. S. 
Published: January 2022

Surface cloud data based on synoptic observations made by Voluntary Observing Ships (VOS) during the period 1951-98 were used to prepare the seasonal and annual cloud climatology of the Indian Ocean. The analysis has been carried out by separating the long-term trends, decadal and inter-annual components from the monthly cloud anomaly time series at each 5° × 5° grids.

Maximum zone of total and low cloud cover shifts from equator to northern parts of India during the monsoon season. During the monsoon season (June-September), maximum total cloud cover exceeding 70% and low cloud cover exceeding 50% are observed over north Bay of Bengal. Maximum standard deviation of total and low cloud cover is observed near the equator and in the southern hemisphere. Both total and low cloud cover over Arabian Sea and the equatorial Indian Ocean are observed to decrease during the ENSO events. However, cloud cover over Bay of Bengal is not modulated by the ENSO events. On inter-decadal scale, low cloud cover shifted from a "low regime" to a "high regime" after 1980 which may be associated with the corresponding inter-decadal changes of sea surface temperatures over north Indian Ocean observed during the late 1970s.
Experience from the Project Approach in Teaching Technology Subjects at the University of Chemical Technology Prague – Teaching for Practice
Authors: Kittel Hugo 
Published: January 2022

A proposal was formulated at the University of Chemical Technology (UCT) Prague in 2016 to implement the project approach in teaching technology subjects. A grant was awarded for an Operational Program Research Development and Education project called "Education Improvement – UCT Prague Priority" from the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic. The project's main goals were that UCT graduates would understand the application of chemistry in practice simultaneously in the context of the given field of study, as well as the law, economy, safety and environmental impact, realize the importance of viability and profitability of technical projects, learn about usable methods applied in the implementation of technical projects, and get acquainted with the principles of creation of teams and team work. A team of teachers and outside consultants from practice have been created. Using the Internet and personal contacts, experience with the use of project approach in teaching at the Czech universities has been gathered. Experience from the project approach in teaching at UCT Prague has been summed up. Basic 12 modules of real-life technical projects have been defined and described in a Methodical Handbook which also includes a number of tools for students. A new subject has been created on the use of scheduling software. A total of 8 technology subjects have been selected for piloting of the project in 2018–2021, employing the created tools. The experience with teaching the pilot subjects was used in the lifelong education of the university teachers. The results will also be used for the teaching other technology subjects at UCT Prague. It can be expected that the project will contribute to a better employability of fresh graduates, their faster adaptation to the requirements of practice, a faster career growth, and that it will improve the feedback from graduates to the teaching staff and their activities at UCT Prague.

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar um breve estudo sobre o instituto da mediação por videoconferência na era digital, sob o referencial teórico do direito ao acesso à Justiça, no contexto da globalização e de uma sociedade líquida. Problema de pesquisa: verificar se a proposta de mediação on-line por videoconferência como parte do sistema multiportas do Judiciário se apresenta como instrumento adequado para enfrentar os conflitos sociais do século XXI na prestação efetiva e justa do acesso à Justiça. Buscar-se-á, em um primeiro momento, definir o conceito de conflito inserido no processo autocompositivo. Em seguida, analisar-se-á o modelo de jurisdição tradicional e sua transição para o conceito angular de justiça considerando aspectos e princípios basilares da mediação on-line por videoconferência. Em conclusão, verifica-se que a Jurisdição não é monopólio do Estado e o uso das tecnologias nas práticas consensuais têm sido efetivadas em situações emergenciais causada pela covid-19. Utilizar-se-á o método hipotético-dedutivo e a pesquisa bibliográfica.
