The İmpact of Gonadotropin Type on Controlled Ovarian Stimulation and İntrauterine İnsemination Cycle Outcomes
Authors: Cicek Ozge Senem Yucel , Demir Merve 
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT

Background:
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) combined with controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) results in higher pregnancy rates. However, there is still no consensus on the optimal COS protocol.

Aims:
In the present study, we aimed to analyse the effects of COS protocols with different gonadotropin types on IUI outcomes.

Study Setting and Design:
This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at the infertility clinic of a University hospital, including 237 COS + IUI cycles.

Materials and Methods:
Eligible cycles were divided into three groups according to the type of gonadotropin used for COS; cycles with recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) (group 1, n = 36), highly purified FSH (HP-FSH) (group 2, n = 178) and highly purified menotropin (HP-hMG) (group 3, n = 23). Clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and live birth rate (LBR) per cycle were compared between groups.

Statistical Analysis Used:
The Mann–Whitney U test and Kruskal–Wallis test were used to compare numerical variables. Dunn test was used for multiple comparisons.

Results:
The duration of stimulation and total gonadotropin dose were similar between the three groups (P > 0.05). The CPR was 16.7% in rFSH group, 9.6% in HP-FSH group and 13.0% in HP-hMG group. The LBR was 16.7% in rFSH group, 8.4% in HP-FSH group and 13.0% in HP-hMG group. Both CPR and LBR were comparable in all three groups (P > 0.05).

Conclusions:
Ovarian stimulation with rFSH, HP-FSH and HP-hMG show similar COS characteristics. Furthermore, these three gonadotropin protocols for COS + IUI yielded comparable CPR and LBR. These findings suggest that all three gonadotropin types (rFSH, HP-FSH, HP-hMG) are similarly effective in COS + IUI cycles.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT

Background:
Ectopic pregnancy (EP) defined as extrauterine implantation of the embryo can be managed medically or surgically. Medical management entails systemic administration of the antineoplastic drug methotrexate (MTX) which, if not successful, surgical management is resorted to. However, we carried out this study wherein the failed medical management cases were given intra-gestational sac MTX instead of surgery.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of intra-gestational MTX administration as a treatment modality for failed medical management of ectopic pregnancies.

Study Setting and Design:
It was a prospective interventional study carried out at the Reproductive Medicine Centre of a tertiary care hospital.

Materials and Methods:
It was a prospective interventional study wherein 12 patients of EP with failed medical management (as per established criteria) were administered intra-gestational MTX with follicle aspiration needle under transvaginal sonography guidance.

Statistical Analysis Used:
Data were collected in Microsoft Excel. Numerical continuous variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Categorical variables were expressed as count/percentage.

Results:
All the patients responded to the local administration of MTX, with none requiring rescue surgery. In addition, no one had any complication of the local instillation. However, one patient required an additional dose of MTX.

Conclusion:
Intra-gestational MTX administration is a viable non-surgical modality for treatment of ectopic pregnancies even in cases of failed medical management with an added benefit of tubal preservation.
Development of Ozonated Water Technology to Inhibit Enzymatic Browning of “Mang-Koot-Cut”
Authors: Chankuson Pitchasak , Nisoa Mudtorlep , Srinum Thammanoon 
Published: March 2022

This work aim to produce high-concentration ozonated water using a dielectric barrier discharge for inhibiting the enzymatic browning of Mang-Koot-Cut. The ozonizer was composed of radio frequency (RF) powered mesh electrode and grounded water electrode that sandwiched a Pyrex glass tube as the dielectric material. The discharge of air flowing through the ozonizer generated ozone gas. The optimal flow rate was 2 L/min. A venturi injector caused an effective mixing between ozone gas and water to obtain ozonated water. The RF power, discharge time and airflow rate controlled the dissolved ozone concentration. Ozonated water with dissolved ozone concentrations greater than 0.2 ppm could reduce the browning reaction of Mang-Koot-Cut. Measurement of the color values L*, a* and b* showed that ozonated water could delay the browning of Mang-Koot-Cut. The results exhibited the possibility of using ozonated water to reduce the browning activity in Mang-Koot-Cut as a substitute for chemicals that are harmful to health. Ozonated water is green chemistry with no toxic residues.
HIGHLIGHTS

The developed ozonated water production system can generate a concentration of about 0.3 ppm
Ozonated water can inhibit the enzymatic browning reaction caused by the PPO enzyme and phenol compounds

Authors: Hizmi Surayyal , Rusdy Wijaya Satria 
Published: March 2022

Background:
The success of implementing a sustainable event in a tourist destination cannot be separated from the influence of the quality of human resources (human capital) and planning strategies. However, studies of the interdependence between human capital and planning strategies in achieving successful implementation of sustainable events, especially on the island of Lombok, are still limited
Methodology:
This study aims to examine and analyze the extent to which aspects of human capital and strategic planning play a role in optimizing the implementation of events on the island of Lombok. The method used is a literature review from journals and trusted sources, as well as problem analysis through in-depth interviews with resource persons involved in the implementation of the event. The focus of this study is to compare tourism events, namely the Bali Arts Festival (PKB) in Bali and the Bau Nyale Festival in Lombok
Findings:
The results of in-depth interviews with several sources show that the PKB held on the island of Bali is still superior in the number of enthusiasts and concepts than the implementation of the Bau Nyale Festival on the island of Lombok. This is shown by the length of the PKB implementation and the age of the PKB which has been going on in the past 4 decades ago. In addition, the main factor that affects the sustainability of PKB is the quality of human resources in the tourism sector on the island of Bali, which is superior to the island of Lombok, so as to be able to formulate effective and creative planning in packaging the event. To achieve the sustainability of the event in Lombok, it is necessary to increase human capital and appropriate planning strategies through counselling, training, and the availability of Meeting study programs.
Conclusion:
Human capital and strategic planning play important roles for achieving sustainable event to support the development of tourist destination. The result of comparison study between Bali Arts Festival and Bau Nyale Festival shows that Bali Arts Festival was greater than Bau Nyale festival in terms of numbers of visitors and implementation concepts. This was proved by the length of festival and number of tourists visiting. Bali Arts Festival has been run for about 40 years, while Bau Nyale Festival has been currently occurred in Lombok. In addition, human capital in Bali Arts Festival was greater showing in how well management applied during the event, so that, it is able to plan with a precise strategy in achieving sustainable event.

Published: March 2022

Por diferentes circunstâncias e épocas do ano, o acesso à água por um sistema de captação subterrânea e superficial podem ser cessados, sujeitando a população local a recorrer a fontes não viáveis para sanar a escassez de água temporária. O presente estudo, que foi realizado de outubro de 2019 a março de 2020, tem como objetivo avaliar a possibilidade do uso de um destilador solar piramidal para produção de água e sua qualidade para consumo humano em situações emergenciais. O destilador solar piramidal foi construído com área de cobertura de vidro de 0,25 m², e operado com base em recomendações já conhecidas para maximizar sua produtividade, por meio da energia solar. As variáveis meteorológicas radiação solar, temperatura ambiente, velocidade dos ventos e umidade relativa foram monitoradas para avaliar as potencialidades da eficiência de produção para características locais. Foram realizadas 67 coletas de produção de água destilada para evidenciar que o presente destilador solar foi capaz de produzir uma média de 3,22 L/m².dia e com 31% de eficiência. Também, foram realizadas 7 bateladas de análise da qualidade da água bruta e destilada, sendo que, dentro dos parâmetros analisados, a água destilada foi sempre considerada própria para consumo humano.

Published: March 2022

A radiação solar é fonte energética vital de todos processos existentes na Terra. Além disso, atualmente, com uma preocupação crescente em relação à utilização de fontes alternativas e sustentáveis de energia, seu uso tem sido utilizado como uma boa solução para conversão energética, controle de temperatura de água e conforto térmico. Em superfícies inclinadas, a orientação e o ângulo da inclinação da superfície alteram os níveis energéticos recebidos se comparados com uma superfície horizontal. Medidas da irradiação solar em superfícies verticais podem contribuir para planejamentos de instalações de painéis solares nas fachadas de construções, conforto térmico e iluminação natural. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os dados da irradiação solar global em superfície vertical orientada ao Norte medidos durante o ano de 2010 na Faculdade de Ciências Agronômicas da UNESP de Botucatu. Foi comparada as medidas da radiação solar global em superfície vertical com superfície horizontal, a fim de se analisar os níveis quantitativos de irradiação solar global em superfície vertical no decorrer do ano para Botucatu–SP. Verificou-se também diferenças sazonais significativas entre as radiações solares global vertical e horizontal. Nos meses de verão, a irradiação medida na superfície vertical é composta basicamente das parcelas difusa e refletida. Para uso da irradiação solar durante o ano, recomenda-se a superfície vertical para os meses de maio a julho. Nos demais meses, recomenda-se a superfície horizontal.
