On the intensity and areal coverage of the northeast monsoon Rains in the districts of Madras State
Authors: GASPAR S. 
Published: May 2022

In this paper an attempt is made to establish the relationship between the intensity of rainfall recorded by the India Meteorological Department Observatories in the Madras State during the northeast monsoon season and intensity and areal coverage of rainfall in the districts in which the observatories are situated. The daily rainfall recorded at the large number of provincial raingauge stations in the State during a period of five years, has been analysed for this purpose and the analysis shows that associated with the occurrence of different intensities of rain at the Observatory stations, herein called the 'Pilot' station, the district receives certain well defined types of rainfall.

A number of other features of the intensity and areal coverage of the northeast monsoon rains in Madras State are also brought out in the paper.

Published: May 2022

From the daily, weekly and monthly values of Q/Q A and n/N the least square regression constants, a and b in the equation, Q/QA = a + b (n/N), have been calculated for Madras, Q and Q A being radiation one square centimetre of horizontal surface at the surface of the earth and at the top of the atmosphere respectively, n and N being the actual and the maximum possible durations of bright sunshine respectively. Daily data have also been grouped season-wise for the dry and the monsoon seasons and the values of a and b have been calculated for the two seasons. Correlation coefficients between Q/Q A and n/N have also been calculated.

The values of a and b for Madras have been compared with those obtained by different workers in other of the world.

The mean monthly incident radiation at a few placed on the east coast having the same cloud regime as at Madras has also been worked out.

Published: May 2022

Background:
Periprosthetic infections after total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) are associated with devastating complications and prolonged treatment. Patients with identified antibiotic allergy (ABX) may be at increased risk for complications because of suboptimal preincisional prophylaxis. This study aims to quantify the risk of postoperative outcomes and complications for patients undergoing TSA with a history of ABX.

Methods:
Retrospective cohort analysis of patient data was conducted using the PearlDiver Patient Records Database. Patients who underwent TSA for osteoarthritis were identified using Current Procedural Terminology and International Classification of Diseases codes and were stratified based on self-reported (1) penicillin, (2) sulfonamide, or (3) other antibiotic allergies. We analyzed patient demographics, comorbidities, 90-day medical complications, and rate of revision at 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, and 2 years.

Results:
In total, 85,606 patients who underwent TSA for osteoarthritis from 2010 to 2018 were identified, of whom 7,836 (9.15%) had a reported ABX. Univariate analysis found the ABX cohort was younger (67.5 versus 67.7 year; P = 0.042), more often female (67.57% versus 54.79%; P < 0.001), and more likely to have Elixhauser comorbidities than nonallergic control subjects. Multivariate analysis found patients who reported ABX had increased likelihood of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) within 30 days (odds ratio [OR]: 3.129), 1 year (OR: 2.016), and 2 years of surgery (OR: 2.221). Patients with reported ABX had increased likelihood of postoperative anemia (OR: 1.126), blood transfusion (OR: 1.238), and readmission (OR: 1.585) within 90 days of surgery. Patients with penicillin allergy had a greater incidence of revision due to PJI at 30 days (OR: 4.811), 90 days (OR: 2.91), 1 year (OR: 2.105), and 2 years (OR: 2.72). Rates of reported ABX increased from 2010 to 2018 (8.60% to 10.91%; P = 0.001) in patients undergoing TSA.

Conclusion:
Patients undergoing TSA with a history of ABX had a higher risk of readmission, postoperative anemia, blood transfusions, and PJI. These findings support critical assessment and clarification of reported allergies before TSA and possibly the use of preoperative allergy testing.

Study on the anti-corrosion performance of multi-functional additives used in coolant for solder material
Authors: Le Viet Binh  
Published: May 2022

This work presented the corrosion protection performance of anticorrosion multi-metal hybrid (AC-2MH) complex additive for solder materials in corrosive media. The AC-2MH complex contained traditional additives and organic acids. The Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results demonstrated the formation of active and passive protective layers on the surface of the alloys, which prevented the solder materials from corrosion. The electrochemical analysis also indicated that the multifunctional additive had the capability of inhibiting the corrosion rate up to 97-99% under normal conditions (30-40 oC). At high temperatures (60-70 oC), the corrosion inhibition efficiency was significantly reduced to 89-94%.

В период военных действий особенно в районах неблагополучных по инфекционной заболеваемости возникает риск повышения инфекционных заболеваемости холерой. Мариуполь – портовый город, который в данный момент полностью разрушен, поэтому и возникает повышенный риск заболеваемости холерой, которая периодически возникала, в этом городе и в мирное время.Целью нашей работы опираясь на исторический опыт борьбы профессора З. В. Ермольевой с холерой во время войны проанализировать заболеваемости холерой в городе Мариуполь и России.Материалом для статьи послужили литературные источники о историческом значении профилактики холеры, значение сапронозов в классификации инфекционных болезней.Роль сапронозов ( в т.ч. холеры) остается недооцененной проблемой на современном этапе, так многие практические и научные сотрудники забывают о непрекращающемся риске возникновения вспышек этих заболеваний. Анализируя исторический опыт выдающихся микробиологов и эпидемиологов, можно и на современном этапе предотвратить активизацию эпидемического процесса этих инфекций.
During the period of hostilities, especially in areas unfavorable for infectious morbidity, there is a risk of an increase in infectious morbidity with cholera. Mariupol is a port city, which is currently completely destroyed, and therefore there is an increased risk of cholera, which periodically occurred in this city even in peacetime.The purpose of our work is to analyze the incidence of cholera in the city of Mariupol and Russia, based on the historical experience of the fight against cholera by Professor Z.V. Ermolyeva during the war.The material for the article was the literary sources on the historical significance of cholera prevention, the importance of sapronoses in the classification of infectious diseases.The role of sapronoses (including cholera) remains an underestimated problem at the present stage, so many practitioners and scientists forget about the ongoing risk of outbreaks of these diseases. Analyzing the historical experience of outstanding microbiologists and epidemiologists, it is possible to prevent the activation of the epidemic process of these infections at the present stage.

Authors: Alkhatnai Mubarak Alkhatnai 
Published: May 2022

The application of technology in education has become a trend in teaching and the focus of interest in multiple studies because of its various means of implementation. The COVID-19 pandemic has even amplified the need to adapt to different digital-related modalities, one of which is online learning. Although online learning has many benefits for teachers and students, it still poses numerous challenges for education stakeholders. The current study aims to analyze the stressors contributing to difficulties induced by online language learning as experienced by both the students and teachers at King Saud University (KSU). The study also aims to serve as a basis for developing adaptive teaching modalities. This study uses a mixed-descriptive quantitative and qualitative research method, with an open-ended question and a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire. The findings suggest that both the teachers and students frequently felt stressed by the identified contributing stressors and felt that online language learning was difficult for both clusters of respondents. Furthermore, the study concludes with the suggestion that the administrators should consider the needs of the teachers and students and offer them the necessary support to help alleviate the stress and difficulties they are experiencing with online language learning.

Google Shopping en het verbod op self-preferencing – een nieuwe norm voor Big Tech?

Google Shopping en het verbod op self-preferencing – een nieuwe norm voor Big Tech?
De Google shopping-uitspraak heeft veel te bieden. Self-preferencing kwalificeert onder omstandigheden als misbruik. Die omstandigheden vereisen niet dat Google een onmisbare dienst aanbiedt maar enkel dat het gedrag tot potentiële uitsluiting kan leiden. Daarbij lijkt het Gerecht ook een nieuwe standaard te introduceren, namelijk dat ‘onnatuurlijk gedrag van Google dat in potentie tot uitsluiting kan leiden moet worden gerechtvaardigd’. Het Gerecht heeft er echter zorg voor gedragen veel van de ‘nieuwe normen’ in de uitspraak te verbinden aan de ‘ultradominante’ positie die Google als poortwachter in de markt inneemt. De bredere relevantie en impact van de uitspraak is om die reden reeds beperkt, ook in het licht van de DMA-regulering, op basis waarvan vergelijkbaar gedrag van Google straks ex-ante verboden is.

De herkansing van Intel
Maar liefst dertien jaar na dato verklaart het Gerecht de beschikking waarbij de Commissie aan Intel een boete van € 1,06 miljard heeft opgelegd, gedeeltelijk nietig. De analyse die de Commissie heeft verricht is volgens het Gerecht onvolledig en niet geschikt om aan te tonen dat de omstreden kortingen mededingingsbeperkende gevolgen konden hebben of waarschijnlijk dergelijke gevolgen hadden. Uit het arrest blijkt op welke wijze juridische vermoedens bij misbruik van machtpositie kunnen worden weerlegd. Het maakt handhaving van het verbod op misbruik van machtspositie er niet makkelijker op, wat de vlucht naar het alternatief van de recent aangenomen Digital Markets Act mogelijk des te groter maakt.

Association of multiple tumor markers with newly diagnosed gastric cancer patients: a retrospective study
Authors: Li Xiaoyang , Li Sifeng , Zhang Zhenqi , Huang Dandan 
Published: May 2022

Background
The purpose of this paper was to explore the correlation between multiple tumor markers and newly diagnosed gastric cancer.

Methods
We selected 268 newly diagnosed patients with gastric cancer and 209 healthy subjects for correlation research. The detection of multiple tumor markers was based on protein chips and the results were statistically analyzed using SPSS.

Results
We concluded that gastric cancer was significantly related to gender, age, alpha fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199), and carbohydrate antigen 242 (CA242) positive levels (P < 0.001). After CA199 and CA242 were stratified by gender, the male odds ratio (OR) was 30.400 and 31.242, respectively, while the female OR was 3.424. After CA125 was stratified by age in patients over 54 years old with gastric cancer, the risk of occurrence in the CA125-positive population was 16.673 times that of the CA125-negative patients. Among patients 54 years old and younger, being CA125-positive was not a risk factor for gastric cancer (P = 0.082). AFP, CEA, CA125, CA199, and CA242 positive levels during the M1 stage were statistically significant when compared with the M0 stage and control group (P < 0.001), but the AFP (P = 0.045) and CA125 (P = 0.752) positive levels were not statistically significant when compared with the M0 stage and control group. The combined detection sensitivity of multiple tumor markers was 44.78%.

Conclusion
Our research shows that gastric cancer is associated with age, gender, and the positive levels of AFP, CEA, CA125, CA199, and CA242. The positive levels of AFP and CA125 were related to the distant metastasis of gastric cancer. To a certain extent, the combined detection sensitivity can be used for the initial screening of gastric cancer.

Published: May 2022

AbstractBackgroundThe Halcyon is a linear accelerator‐based treatment machine designed for a high‐throughput simplified workflow. The machine features a compact jawless design, dual‐layer multileaf collimators, and a single 6‐MV flattening filter‐free (FFF) beam. However, the machine's 6‐MV FFF beam may restrict its applicability to conventional techniques, such as field‐in‐field (FiF) radiotherapy, for breast cancer treatment. This study developed a practical and efficient hybrid method for imaging, planning, and irradiation procedures for whole‐breast irradiation using Halcyon linear accelerators.Materials and methodsThe proposed method involves five major steps: (1) field arrangement, (2) planning target volume (PTV) generation and evaluation, (3) basal plan generation, (4) inverse planning intensity–modulated radiation therapy plan generation, and (5) plan evaluation and irradiation. The PTV is generated using isodose curves plotted on the basis of tangential fields, which are applied to create a basal plan. Subsequently, a basal‐dose‐compensation approach is applied to further optimize the treatment plan. This efficient workflow necessitates executing only one onboard cone‐beam computed tomography procedure. This study included 10 patients with early‐stage breast cancer who were treated at our center. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated by comparing its corresponding irradiation time and dose statistics with those derived for a dynamically flattened beam‐based FiF (DFB‐FiF) method.ResultsAll plans were normalized to ensure that 98% of the prescribed dose covered 95% of the PTV. On average, the global maximum doses in the proposed and DFB‐FiF methods were lower than 106%. The homogeneity index for right‐sided (left‐sided) breast cancer was 0.053 (0.056) in the proposed method and 0.073 (0.076) in the DFB‐FiF method. The dose statistics of normal tissues, including the contralateral breast, heart, and lungs, were comparable between the methods. However, the irradiation time per monitor unit in the proposed method was approximately five times faster than that in the DFB‐FiF method, but the planning time and complexity were similar between the methods.ConclusionsThis study developed and evaluated an efficient and practical hybrid method for whole‐breast irradiation using the Halcyon. This method can significantly reduce the irradiation time, while providing comparable dose statistics to the DFB‐FiF method.
