Authors: Yadav Mathura , Pandey Bisheswor Prasad , Khatri Narayan , Chaurasiya Vishnu Prasad 
Published: September 2022

The yield losses due to weeds vary depending on the weed species, their density and environmental factors. For controlling weeds in wheat, the farmers rely on herbicides due to cost and time effectiveness. Keeping these facts in view a field experiment was conducted to identify appropriate herbicides for controlling weeds in wheat. The experiment was carried out at three locations of Kapilvastu, Rupandehi and Nawalparasi during 2016/17 and 2017/18. Pendimethalin 30 EC, Sulfosulfuron 30 g a.i ha-1 and control treatments were evaluated in the field of six farmers in an area of 330 m2 for each treatment and were replicated six times. Wheat variety Tilottama was planted in the experiment. The fertilizer was applied at the rate of 100:50:50 N: P2O5: K2O kg ha-1. Weed populations were recorded at 30, 60 and 90 days after sowing in an area of 0.25 m-2 at three spots of each treatment and growth, yield attributes and yield data of wheat were collected and data were analyzed using Genstat statistical package. In 2016/17 Pendimethalin 1 kg a.i. ha-1 and Sulsosulfuron @ 25 g a.i. ha-1 and control (no herbicide spray) treatments were significantly difference for plant height, spike m-2 and grain yield but not significant for spike length and 1000 grains weight at Bimiha, Bhagdari and Nadawa sites. Both herbicides were found effective in controlling weed population. Whereas in 2017/18 Pendimethalin 30 EC. 1 kg a.i. ha-1 as pre-emergence and sulfosulfuron 30 g a.i. ha-1 as post emergence herbicides were found effective to suppress weed population. Plant height, spike length and 1000 grains weight variables were not significant but spikes m-2 and grains yield were significant Based on the pooled results it could be concluded that Pendimethalin 1 kg a.i. ha-1 and Sulsosulfuron @ 25 g a.i. ha-1 herbicides were found effective in controlling weed population and increased yield attributes and yield in wheat crop over weedy check.

Agricultural production is due to the exploitation of soil, water and energy. The objective of this review work was to identify the yield gap of major crops viz. rice, maize, wheat, and finger millet and their causes. An attempt has been made to suggest the potential agronomical interventions that reduce the yield gaps. Rice, wheat, and finger millet yields in all agro-ecological zones are declining, although yield trends of maize were reported to have increased in the Terai due to the increased use of hybrids. The yield gap can be minimized with assured irrigation and appropriate agronomic practices such as the use of the quality seed, timely planting with appropriate establishment methods, timely intercultural operations, soil fertility, moisture, weeds, diseases, insect pests and post-harvest management along with growing high-yielding and stable genotypes resilient to climate change. It is obvious that there must be a strong interaction between plant breeding and agronomy for enhanced crop production. Therefore, some of the potential agronomical technologies that contribute to increase the crop yields thereby reduce the yield gaps have been discussed in this article.
Correlation between the Guyon Canal Syndrome and the Forward Head Posture in Prolonged Smartphone Users
Authors: Shinde Sandeep , Vaidya Akhilesh , Bhore Prachiti Rajan 
Published: September 2022

Introduction: From youth to the eldest, smartphones have become an essential gadget of life. Neutral head posture plays an important role in our day-to-day activities as it is responsible for stability. Although smartphones have made our lives easier, they tend to increase the number of complaints related to the cervical spine, hand complex, wrist, and elbow pain as a result of their excessive use. This might result in various faulty postural adaptations, which can greatly contribute to the increased risk of musculoskeletal disorders. Also, its prolonged use can lead to forwarding head posture (FHP), which can be accompanied by Guyon Canal Syndrome (GCS). This study aimed to find and determine the correlation between Guyon canal syndrome and forward head posture in prolonged smartphone users.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that consisted of 80 college subjects who were selected based on the criterion for selection. The data that was collected included, demographic details, smartphone usage characteristics, the severity of pain, presence of FHP, and mechanosensitivity of the ulnar nerve. Statistical analysis was done using a non-parametric test. Spearman’s correlation coefficient test was used.
Results: The results of this study among the 80 prolonged smartphone users showed that 42 users (52.5%) were in the age group of 18–21, and 38 users (47.5%) were found to be in the age group of 22–25. Most of them were right-handed i.e., 61 (76%), while 19 (24%) were left-handed. In BMI, normal-weighing subjects (18.5-24.9) were 48 (60%) and overweight subjects were 32 (40%). Mean + SD of Smartphone Addiction Scale, Visual Analogue Scale, Upper Limb Tension Test and Occiput to Wall Distance was 29.99 + 6.50, 1.48 + 0.86, 0.73 + 0.45, and 2.78 + 0.96, respectively. Spearman’s correlation coefficient was shown to have a moderately positive correlation between both SAS and VAS (r = 0.36, p = 0.0010), SAS and ULTT (r = 0.14, p = 0.022), and SAS and OWD (r = 0.17, p = 0.013). Linear regression was used to check the correlation and significance between FHP and GCS, where the r value was (0.27) and the p-value was 0.0177, which was found to be statistically significant.
Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, we found that there was a positive correlation between forwarding head posture and Guyon canal syndrome in prolonged smartphone users. FHP can give rise to moderate pressure on the ulnar nerve, which mainly supplies the fifth finger of the hand, causing Guyon Canal Syndrome. Hence, we can conclude that in subjects with prolonged usage of smartphones, FHP can further progress and these subjects may have the tendency to develop GCS.
INTERPRETATION ON THE TEXT OF APOSTOLIC TRADITION ARTICLE 41 AND THE IMPLICATION FOR TOGETHERNESS
Authors: Hasibuan Ricky Pramono , Fangidae Tony Wiyaret 
Published: September 2022

ABSTRACT Â
This article interprets a text of The Apostolic Tradition, a 3rd century Church Order containing rules for ordination, communion, cateÂ­chism and baptism, as well as daily prayers. Studies of this ancient text were still very few in Indonesia, and mostly concerned with the part of the communion. In this article, the author will examine daily prayer, speciÂ­fically the text of Apostolic Tradition 41:1-4 on the dawn prayer. The passage instructed that the congregation must gather every morning to listen to the teachings and perform communal prayer. This research starÂ­ted from fact that there were few daily prayer celebrations in Indonesian churches, especially communal morning prayer. This study employed qualitative study design through literature studies and hermeneutics. The author argues that the communal dawn prayer in the Apostolic Tradition is relevant to be developed in Indonesian context.
Keywords: dawn prayer, congregation, Apostolic Tradition

Understanding The Clinical Aggression Against Emergency Nurses: A Narrative review
Authors: Diabat Osama 
Published: September 2022

Workplace aggression is a significant problem in the region and internationally. Aggression behaviors against health care professionals in the emergency departments have become very frequent and risky. Emergency nurses are the most at-risk group among all the professionals who have to manage patients’ aggression or violence. Emergency nurses should practice and deliver nursing care in a positive, therapeutic, and safe environment. Hospital management and nursing administration should provide emergency nurses with the required training on aggression management strategies to ensure their safety. Most of the current aggression training programs and guidelines concentrate on physical management and crisis intervention. There is deficiency of the specialized aggression training programs that concentrate on the de-escalation and pre-escalation preventive strategies .
Wound complications in metastatic spine tumor patients with and without preoperative radiation

Published: September 2022

OBJECTIVE
Wound complications are a common adverse event following metastatic spine tumor surgery. Some patients with spinal metastases may first undergo radiation but eventually require spinal surgery because of either cord compression or instability. The authors compared wound complication rates in patients who had undergone surgery for metastatic disease and received preoperative radiation treatments, postoperative radiation, or no radiation.

METHODS
Records from patients treated at the University of California, San Francisco, for metastatic spine disease between 2005 and 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Baseline characteristics were collected, including preoperative Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS), Spine Instability Neoplastic Score, total radiation dose, indication for surgery, diabetes status, time between radiation and surgery, use of perioperative chemotherapy or steroids, estimated blood loss, extent of fusion, and preoperative albumin level. Wound complication was defined as poor healing, dehiscence, or infection per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, within 6 months of surgery. One-way ANOVA was used to compare means across groups. Cumulative incidence analysis with competing risk methodology was used to adjust for risk of death during follow-up. Statistical analysis was performed using R software.

RESULTS
Two hundred five patients with adequate medical records were identified. Seventy patients had received preoperative radiation, 74 had received postoperative radiation within 6 months after surgery, and 61 had received no radiation at the surgical site. Wound complication rates were similar across the 3 cohorts: 14.3% (n = 10) in the group with preoperative radiation, 10.8% (n = 8) in the group that received postoperative radiation, and 11.5% (n = 7) in the group with no radiation (p = 0.773). Competing risk analysis showed a higher cumulative incidence of wound complications for the preoperative cohort, though this difference was not significant (p = 0.46). Overall, 89 patients were treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), whereas 55 received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). There was no significant difference in wound complications for patients treated with EBRT (11.2%, n = 10) versus SBRT (14.5%, n = 8; p = 0.825). KPS was the only factor correlated with wound complications on univariate analysis (p = 0.03).

CONCLUSIONS
Wound complication rates did not differ across the 3 cohorts: patients treated with preoperative radiation, postoperative radiation within 6 months of surgery, or no radiation. The effect size was small for KPS and likely does not represent a clinically significant predictor of wound complications.
CONE BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY AS AN ADDITIONAL METHOD OF EXAMINATION IN ORTHODONTIC PATIENTS
Authors: Flis P.S. , Vyshemyrska T.A. 
Published: September 2022

Today, the diagnosis of orthodontic patients is carried out according to the generally accepted method using orthopantomogram, lateral and direct cephalogram with their subsequent analysis, as well as linear and angular measurements of various parameters.
However, the reliability of the diagnosis depends quite strongly on the position of the head on 2D radiography, as the need to obtain additional radiographs depends on this, because there are significant limitations due to summation overlays, two-dimensional flattening and variable magnification of various anatomical structures of the facial skull.
The emergence of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technology made it possible to display, study and analyze anatomical structures of the facial skull in thin sections in all three planes, as well as to obtain three-dimensional reconstructions of skeletal and soft tissue structures of the face using a lower dose of radiation than multispiral computer computed tomography (MSCT), but still higher compared to twodimensional cephalography.
Since children and adolescents predominate among orthodontic patients, it is necessary to pay attention that the received effective dose of irradiation, under equal conditions, is 36% higher in children than in adults, and with age there is a sufficiently large risk of developing stochastic effects. Therefore, radiation protection, in case of appointment of CBCT by an orthodontist, is extremely important.
There are various indications for CBCT of the entire skull in children and adolescents, which are limited by complex clinical situations, such as: skeletal asymmetries or genetic malformations, etc. For pediatric orthodontic patients, the indications for CBCT of the limited field of view are the evaluation of: dystopian and retentive teeth, evaluation of compact jaw plates, volume of the upper respiratory tract, anatomy and anomalies of the development of the jaws, together with the maxillary sinuses and temporomandibular joints (TMJ) and others.
The use of CBCT as an additional diagnostic method in orthodontic practice has had a greater impact on the planning and quality of patient treatment.

The research population involved 101 students of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Cenderawasih University batch 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The results of the study found the influence of personality competence and academic adjustment on student learning outcome where the results of hypothesis testing simultaneously obtained an F-count value of 23.478, F-table 3.09 and a significance value (Sig.) .000 <0.05. Thus, it was concluded that H0 was rejected and H3 was accepted, which meant that the variables of personality competence (X1) and academic adjustment (X2) had a simultaneous influence on student learning outcome (Y). In addition, based on the output value of the summary model, the R Square value was 0.324, which meant that the influence of the variables X1 and X2 simultaneously on Y was 32.4% while the 67.6% was determined by other variables that were not examined in this research
Examining social media and academic social network use, and trends in physician-patient communication via social media: a national study
Authors: GÜRLER Deniz 
Published: September 2022

Introduction: In the history of the internet, social media occupy an exceptional place because they bring about sociological changes and cause things that will influence the course of history. It has become inevitable to conduct a study that examines the changes in the relationship between academic social networks and online patient-physician relationships, which have become widespread in recent years, especially among physicians. This study attempted to address this deficiency.
Material and Method: An online survey was created on Google Forms that included questions about physicians' use of social and academic media networks and their communication habits with online patients. Age, gender, medical specialty and workplace, social media use, academic social networks usage, and relationships with patients via social media were analyzed.
Results: Daily social media usage was significantly associated with age and medical specialty. Participants aged 40-50 and Basic Medic Science Consultants were least likely to use social media. The use of Facebook was the lowest among those under 30 (12.2%). Among those under 30, the use of LinkedIn was deficient (2.0%). Google Scholar was the most frequently used academic social network (38.5%). Surgical specialists were more likely to share medical content. Under 30 and over 50 were more likely to share their medical titles on social media than other groups. The percentage of those who reported having also physically examined the patient during online communication was 64.5%. This high rate is by no means negligible. Patients' most frequent responses to online communication requests were via WhatsApp (80.3%). The under-30 age group was found to have less contact with patients on social media.
Conclusion: According to the results of the study, the use of the academic social network is lower than expected, even among academically active participants. The fact that Facebook usage is significantly lower among those under 30 suggests that Facebook is outdated as a social medium for young physicians. Participants in university hospitals, private clinics, and those under 40 use social media differently than other groups. More online patient communication is an important advance. It is also significant that the number of studies has increased after online communication. If investments are made in this topic, it can be expected that a substantial part of patient-doctor relationships will be handled online soon. However, social media studies wear out quickly, so they should be repeated frequently.

Published: September 2022

Aim: To compare safety and efficiency between Trendelenburg position retrograde intrarenal surgery (tRIRS) and conventional position retrograde intrarenal surgery (cRIRS) in the management of renal pelvis stones 10-20 mm in size.
Material and Method: From September 2018 to September 2019, the patients undergoing RIRS for single renal stones between 10-20 mm were included in the study prospectively. Patients were divided into two groups randomly. First group of patients were positioned completely parallel to the ground (cRIRS), second group were positioned with Trendelenburg (tRIRS). Success was evaluated at end of 3rd months by non-contrast enhanced tomography. Stones that smaller than 4 mm were accepted as clinical insignificant residual fragment. Complications was classified according to Clavien, class 2 or more complications were recorded.
Results: Totally 100 patients were included to final analyze. Patients’ age, gender, stone side and mean stone surface area were similar between groups. Success rate was higher in tRIRS group (90% vs 72% p=0.022). Mean operation time was lower (41.8 vs 58.2 min. p
Evaluation of the correlation of serum calcium, phosphorus levels and calcium phosphorus product with disease severity and ICU mortality in SARS-COV-2 pneumonia patients followed up in ICU
Authors: HOŞGÜN Derya , AYDEMİR Semih 
Published: September 2022

Background: Calcium and phosphorus are important elements in the body that have been shown to decrease in critical inflammatory diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate serum levels of calcium and phosphorus and the calcium phosphate product (CPP) in patients followed up in intensive care unit (ICU) due to hypoxemic respiratory failure caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. The secondary endpoint of the study were respiratory support therapies used in the evaluation of independent mortality and disease severity in ICU that were divided into four groups depending on the time of administration: (i) first 24 hours, (ii) 48-72 hours, (iii) 72 hours, and (iv) 72 hours-28 days.
Material and Method: The retrospective study included patients with critical and severe COVID-19 pneumonia followed up in ICU.
Results: The study included 369 patients with a mean age of 64.3±14.8 years. ICU mortality was observed in 142 (38.5%) patients, among whom 17 (4.6%) patients died within 24 hours, 28 (7.6%) died between 48-72 hours, 50 (12.7%) died within 72 hours, and 47 (12.7%) died between 72 hours and 28 days. Serum calcium level established a significant relationship with ICU mortality at 28 days and 72 hours (p0.05).
Conclusion: Serial assessment of serum calcium may be a new criterion in the prediction of independent mortality in critical and severe COVID-19 pneumonia, which has been recently identified and has numerous unknown features.
