Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of Labor Analgesia in Antenatal Women in India
Authors: Paul Debashish , Gupta Nipun , Patra Arun Kumar , Saurav  , Krishna Prasad G V 
Published: April 2022

Background:
The concept of labor analgesia is widely unknown to the antenatal women and parturients in the Indian medical setup.

Aims:
The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice of labor analgesia in antenatal women visiting the antenatal clinic in a tertiary care hospital.

Methodology:
One hundred twenty women in the antenatal period between the age group of 18 and 40 years attending the antenatal clinic were included in the study. A Google form-based questionnaire was used to collect data.

Statistical Analysis:
Ordinal and nominal data were presented as numbers and percentages. Bar diagrams and pie charts were used for graphical representation.

Results:
Twenty-one (17.5%) respondents, out of 120, were aware of labor analgesia. Among the rest 99, 13 participants did not have knowledge nor they wanted to gather information further. Out of 86 unaware respondents, 62 (72.1%) were interested in acquiring the knowledge of labor analgesia and rather would be comfortable if the treating obstetrician imparts the information; 46 (53.5%) of them wanted the information to be imparted during the obstetric consultation sessions and 10 (11.6%) respondents considered the best time for gathering awareness for labor analgesia at, or after the onset of labor pain. The major concerns of the respondents for labor analgesia were the safety of their health and the effect on the baby.

Conclusions:
Awareness of labor analgesia in Indian antenatal women is low. The treating obstetrician should impart knowledge regarding labor analgesia in the pre- and antenatal period which should be supplemented with more emphasis during the prelabor period.

Published: April 2022

ABSTRACT.
Abdominal angiostrongyliasis, a foodborne parasitic disease, caused by the zoonotic nematode Angiostrongylus costaricensis, is a rarely reported human eosinophilic enteritis, only been diagnosed in the America continent. The adult worm invades arteries, most frequently those in the right ileocolic region, and causes abdominal symptoms. Currently, the only definitive diagnosis is by identifying the parasite in surgical specimens. By observing adult worms of A. costaricensis inside the mesenteric arteries, we diagnosed and treated the first known case from the Amazon region of Ecuador. A 2-year-old indigenous Shuar, who during the previous 2 months had been diagnosed with having dysentery, typhoid fever, and appendicitis; presented with fever, painful distended abdomen, a palpable abdominal mass on the right flank, and bloody diarrhea, accompanied by leukocytosis with eosinophilia of 20.6%. The child completely recovered after partial surgical resection of the transverse and descending colon, and treatment with mebendazole. This case substantiates that not only the existence of the parasite, but also active transmission of the disease is occurring in Ecuador. Physicians, travelers, as well as decision-making authorities should be alerted to the importance of this foodborne zoonosis and of the need for research to determine the geographical distribution and possible prevention strategies.

Published: April 2022

Creating better citizens is one of the significant goals of education. Educational policies of Pakistan also stress on civic development of students as one of its essential goals. However, scholars have shown concerns about Pakistani students’ poor civic sense and teamwork skills. This current study aimed to examine the perspectives of local rural college students on civic responsibility and teamwork as outcomes of service-learning. Data were collected from 136 college students who participated in a service-learning project designed and implemented in Chitral Lower’s local college district. A questionnaire consisting of two scales: civic responsibility and teamwork, was used for data collection. The questionnaire was piloted before data collection. Experts checked content validity, and reliability was assessed by using Cronbach’s alpha. The principal component analysis technique was applied to analyse collected data with a principal component analysis approach. The results showed that respondents strongly agreed that service-learning significantly improved their sense of civic responsibility and teamwork skills. The results of this study extensively support the findings of previous research studies. However, it is suggested that the findings of this study may further be investigated in other contexts for a better understanding of the role of service-learning as civic and teamwork pedagogy.

Published: April 2022

Carbon dioxide-induced stress corrosion cracking (CO2-SCC) is an environmentally assisted corrosion cracking phenomenon that has recently been identified as a new failure mode in flexible pipe armor wires. The phenomenon has been observed to take place notably in severe CO2 environments and is a cause of great concern to the flexible pipe industry. As its detection, a diverse and extensive testing program has been established to develop an understanding of the phenomenon and define safe application limits for carbon steel wires to prevent the initiation of CO2-SCC. Several different testing methodologies have been explored and small-scale laboratory testing has played an instrumental role in this overall effort. This paper focuses on the results from three different small-scale testing methodologies and the impact of different parameters such as CO2 fugacity, temperature, and confinement that play a crucial role in the initiation of CO2-SCC. Furthermore, careful prominence has been given to the test setup and methodology that has been rigorously developed over the last few years. With this developed protocol in place, CO2-SCC has been effectively reproduced on all wire grades in a small-scale testing environment. Results have also shown that for a CO2 fugacity greater than 15 bar and applied stress at 100% of the actual yield strength, all existing wire grades are susceptible to CO2-SCC thus creating significant limitations to flexible pipe design with respect to this new failure phenomenon.

IntroductionDiabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication that frequently occurs in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) necessitating early diagnosis. The aim of the current study was to detect subclinical DCM in Egyptian children and adolescents with T1D and evaluate the effect of antioxidants on myocardial dysfunction.Material and methodsThe current prospective observational cohort study included 81 T1D patients (9-20 years old) with diabetes duration > 4 years compared to 50 age and sex matched non-diabetic controls. Serum N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was assessed in addition to conventional echocardiography, tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) and speckle tracking echocardiography (STE). Patients with myocardial dysfunction were supplemented with vitamin E (α-tocopherol) as an antioxidant for 1 year, then follow up echocardiography was done.ResultsNT-proBNP was elevated in 73 (90.1%) patients, 50.6% had left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction, 14.8% had right ventricular (RV) diastolic dysfunction, 84% had LV systolic dysfunction and 91.4% had RV systolic dysfunction with statistically significant difference compared to controls. There was a significant negative correlation between LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) and NT-proBNP (p<0.001, r=-0.796). ROC curve analysis showed that NT-proBNP at a cut-off point ≥ 195 ng/ml detected LV systolic dysfunction function with 89.7% sensitivity and 84.6% specificity. Follow up after one year of α-tocopherol supplementation revealed significant improvement in LV systolic and diastolic functions as well as RV systolic dysfunction.ConclusionsNT-proBNP and non-conventional echocardiography were useful in early detection of subclinical cardiomyopathy in patients with T1D. Antioxidant treatment improved subclinical myocardial dysfunction in T1D patients.

Towards improved analysis of short mesoscale sea level signals from satellite altimetry
Authors: Quilfen Yves , Piolle Jean-François , Chapron Bertrand 
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Satellite altimeters routinely supply sea surface height (SSH)
measurements, which are key observations for monitoring ocean dynamics.
However, below a wavelength of about 70 km, along-track altimeter
measurements are often characterized by a dramatic drop in signal-to-noise
ratio (SNR), making it very challenging to fully exploit the available altimeter
observations to precisely analyze small mesoscale variations in
SSH. Although various approaches have been proposed and applied to identify
and filter noise from measurements, no distinct methodology has emerged for
systematic application in operational products. To best address this
unresolved issue, the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service
(CMEMS) actually provides simple band-pass filtered data to mitigate noise
contamination of along-track SSH signals. More innovative and suitable noise
filtering methods are thus left to users seeking to unveil small-scale
altimeter signals. As demonstrated here, a fully data-driven approach is
developed and applied successfully to provide robust estimates of noise-free
sea level anomaly (SLA) signals (Quilfen, 2021). The method combines empirical mode
decomposition (EMD), used to help analyze non-stationary and non-linear
processes, and an adaptive noise filtering technique inspired by discrete
wavelet transform (DWT) decompositions. It is found to best resolve the
distribution of SLA variability in the 30–120 km mesoscale wavelength band.
A practical uncertainty variable is attached to the denoised SLA estimates
that accounts for errors related to the local SNR but
also for uncertainties in the denoising process, which assumes that the SLA
variability results in part from a stochastic process. For the available
period, measurements from the Jason-3, Sentinel-3, and SARAL/AltiKa missions
are processed and analyzed, and their energy spectral and seasonal
distributions are characterized in the small mesoscale domain. In anticipation
of the upcoming SWOT (Surface Water and Ocean Topography) mission data, the
SASSA (Satellite Altimeter Short-scale Signals Analysis, https://doi.org/10.12770/1126742b-a5da-4fe2-b687-e64d585e138c, Quilfen
and Piolle, 2021) data set of denoised SLA measurements for three reference altimeter
missions has already been shown to yield valuable opportunities to evaluate global small
mesoscale kinetic energy distributions.
Comparing the transport-limited and ξ–q models for sediment transport
Authors: Braun Jean 
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Here I present a comparison between two of the most widely used reduced-complexity models for the representation of sediment transport and deposition processes, namely the transport-limited (or TL) model and the under-capacity (or ξ–q) model more recently developed by Davy and Lague (2009). Using both models, I investigate the behavior of a sedimentary continental system of length L fed by a fixed sedimentary flux from a catchment of size A0 in a nearby active orogen through which sediments transit to a fixed base level representing a large river, a lake or an ocean. This comparison shows that the two models share the same steady-state solution, for which I derive a simple 1D analytical expression that reproduces the major features of such sedimentary systems: a steep fan that connects to a shallower alluvial plain. The resulting fan geometry obeys basic observational constraints on fan size and slope with respect to the upstream drainage area, A0. The solution is strongly dependent on the size of the system, L, in comparison to a distance L0, which is determined by the size of A0, and gives rise to two fundamentally different types of sedimentary systems: a constrained system where L<L0 and open systems where L>L0. I derive simple expressions that show the dependence of the system response time on the system characteristics, such as its length, the size of the upstream catchment area, the amplitude of the incoming sedimentary flux and the respective rate parameters (diffusivity or erodibility) for each of the two models. I show that the ξ–q model predicts longer response times. I demonstrate that although the manner in which signals propagates through the sedimentary system differs greatly between the two models, they both predict that perturbations that last longer than the response time of the system can be recorded in the stratigraphy of the sedimentary system and in particular of the fan. Interestingly, the ξ–q model predicts that all perturbations in the incoming sedimentary flux will be transmitted through the system, whereas the TL model predicts that rapid perturbations cannot. I finally discuss why and under which conditions these differences are important and propose observational ways to determine which of the two models is most appropriate to represent natural systems.
