Las estrategias urbanas pasivas
Authors: Mínguez Martínez Enrique , Vera Moure María , Meseguer García Diego 
Published: March 2022

A fin de lograr ciudades autosuficientes, sostenibles e inteligentes resulta imprescindible que la planificación urbana y el desarrollo tecnológico se coordinen, aportando soluciones urbanas innovadoras en el ámbito del desarrollo urbano sostenible (Smart Environment), la incorporación de tecnologías de la información en la gestión de servicios (Smart Economy), la generación de espacios participativos de colaboración e innovación (Smart Governance) y la formación de ciudadanos responsables (Smart Citizen). Todas estas tecnologías se deben desarrollar dentro de una planificación urbanística estructurada impulsando un nuevo modelo de ciudad sustentable.Para mejorar la eficiencia energética de un edificio resulta mucho más eficaz contar con sistemas pasivos que utilizar estrategias activas. Las ciudades se comportan del mismo modo; los sistemas pasivos urbanos aplicados a la planificación, son una herramienta innovadora tanto para lograr nuevos desarrollos urbanos sostenibles, como para el reequilibrio de tejidos consolidados, optimizando los recursos existentes e incrementando la eficacia de las nuevas tecnologías aplicadas en la ciudad. “Se deberá fomentar la innovación para apoyar la transición hacia las Ciudades del Mañana. Las Ciudades del Mañana deberían ser ciudades dispares, cohesionadas y atractivas, deberían ser ecológicas y saludables y deberían ser lugares propicios para una economía fuerte e integradora.” (Hermant‐de Callataÿ & Svanfeldt, 2011.
Los sistemas urbanos pasivos (como el Sistema de Polinúcleos Sostenibles) se basan en establecer los patrones numéricos deseables para implantar, de una manera gradual, un modelo urbanístico “que apoyándose en la movilidad sostenible y mediante un reparto equilibrado del tejido urbano consiga ciudades vivas, compactas y diversas de distancias cortas. Mediante un análisis sistémico complejo, se han determinado estos parámetros imprescindibles para conseguir tejidos equilibrados dentro de un modelo urbano compacto, donde tengan cabida las actividades presentes y futuras para que nuestras ciudades evolucionen hacia el ideal de la Smart City Sustentable. “La tarea es promover la vida urbana de los ciudadanos, alojados –esperémoslo‐ en concentraciones lo bastantes densas y diversas como para ofrecerles una sólida oportunidad de desarrollar la vida urbana” (Jacobs, 2012).

Published: March 2022

El aumento de la conciencia medioambiental y la necesidad de optimizar los recursos públicos de los municipios están impulsando en la actualidad un proceso generalizado de mejorar de las instalaciones de alumbrado público en un gran número de núcleos urbanos de todo el país. Esta tendencia coincide y encuentra su motivación y justificación esencialmente con el auge de la comercialización de equipos de iluminación basados en tecnología LED.Las actuaciones de las instalaciones, a nivel público, se están planteando y ejecutando mediante la convocatoria paulatina de concursos públicos. En este trabajo se ha recopilado información de múltiples “Pliegos de Cláusulas Administrativas” y “Pliegos de Preinscripciones Técnicas”, algunos con proyectos o auditorias de ahorro energéticos externos anexos, publicados entre 2014 y 2016 de múltiples localizaciones geográficas, tamaños de población y objetivos a alcanzar, con los que hemos diseñado un boceto del estado general en el que se encontraban este tipo de instalaciones con tecnologías de iluminación convencionales y como se están actualizando para cumplir con:
• Los nuevos reglamentos vigentes, tanto de eficiencia energética vigente como, si existen para su Comunidad Autónoma, de protección de cielo nocturno contra la contaminación lumínica.• Establecer nuevos criterios de seguridad y garantía de calidad en este tipo de instalaciones como los establecidos por el Comité Español de Iluminación (en adelante CEI).• Conseguir los máximos ahorros energéticos y económicos posibles.

Published: March 2022

Cucumber is one of the important vegetable commodities that have high nutritional value and is alternative medicine. To increase the productivity of both plants and the land where plants are grown, organic fertilization is needed. Manure is an organic fertilizer to increase soil fertility so that plant growth increases. Giving different types of manure with different doses will result in different plant growth and development. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the interaction between the type and dose of manure treatment on the growth and production of cucumbers. This study is a factorial experiment with two factors, which were arranged according to a completely randomized design (CRD) and repeated 3 (three) times. The first factor is the type of manure consisting of 3 levels, namely: chicken manure (K1), cow manure (K2), and goat manure (K3). The second factor is the dose of manure which consists of 3 levels, namely: 10 tons/ha (D1), 15 tons/ha (D2), and 20 tons/ha (D3). Observational data were analyzed by analysis of variance to determine the effect of the treatment on the observed parameters. After knowing the effect of treatment on the observed parameters, it is continued with the Least Significant Difference (BNT) test at the 5% level if it is significantly different. The combination of types and doses of manure significantly affected plant height, number, and leaf area at the age of observation 21 and 28 DAP, number of fruits, and fruit production per plant. The combination of the type of manure and the dose of manures did not significantly affect the number of leaves at 14 days of age, fruit length, fruit diameter, and fruit weight. The combination of goat manure at a dose of 20 tons/ha resulted in the best growth and production of cucumbers.
Cross-sectional study of acral melanoma awareness in a group of South African final phase medical students
Authors: Eksteen Johanna M. , Visser Willem I. , de Wet Johann , Lombard Carl , Zunza Moleen , Tod Bianca 
Published: March 2022

Background:
Acral melanoma refers to melanoma arising on the palms, soles and nail unit, which are sun-protected areas and ultraviolet exposure is not a risk factor. Acral melanoma is associated with a poorer prognosis than other melanoma subtypes most likely due to the high rates of delayed diagnosis. Acral melanoma affects all skin types equally. There is a misconception that people with more pigmented skin types (Fitzpatrick 4–6) do not develop melanoma, due to the protective effect of melanin.

Objectives:
The aim of the study was to determine acral melanoma knowledge and awareness of a group of South African, final phase medical students.

Methods:
This was a quantitative and cross-sectional study. A questionnaire consisting of 20 clinical images of skin lesions requiring a diagnosis and management plan was distributed. Responses to six images of melanomas were analysed. Further questions to measure acral melanoma knowledge and related issues were included in the study. A biostatistician appropriately managed statistical analysis.

Results:
Hundred and one final phase medical students’ answers were gathered and analysed. Only 7.9% of the participants diagnosed all six melanomas correctly; 61.4% correctly diagnosed ≥50% of the melanomas. While 77.2% of the participants identified all non-acral cutaneous melanoma correctly, only 8.9% identified all acral melanomas. However, of all participants making the correct diagnosis, >90% selected the appropriate management plan (urgent referral).

Limitations:
This study examined a small sample of trainee healthcare workers. The results cannot be assumed to apply to all South African healthcare workers. Responses given in a questionnaire may not reflect actual behaviour. The dermatology division in question has made acral melanoma a research priority, thus acral melanoma knowledge in this group may in fact be better than in other institutions.

Conclusion:
The present study demonstrates that groups of imminent doctors have low rates of recognition of melanoma, particularly acral melanoma. This is consistent with high levels of primary misdiagnosis of acral melanoma reported in the literature. Fortunately, these participants managed the melanomas they diagnosed appropriately in >90% of cases. This confirms that the deficit in the participant group is awareness and knowledge. Those aware of the disease immediately acknowledged the need for urgent referral.

Response Surface Methodology for Formulating PVA/Starch/Lignin Biodegradable Plastic
Authors: Ratnawati Ratnawati , Wulandari Retno , Kumoro Andri Cahyo , Hadiyanto Hadiyanto 
Published: March 2022

The use of petroleum-based plastics has raised environmental issues as more plastic waste enters and accumulates in the environment. It has led to the development of biodegradable plastics. Starch is one of the potential materials to make biodegradable plastic, but starch-based plastic has poor mechanical strength. Blending starch with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and lignin is expected to improve the mechanical properties of the plastic. Biodegradable plastic films from PVA/starch/lignin blends with glycerol as a plasticizer were prepared using an internal mixer for compounding and a hot press molding machine for film making. The percentage of lignin (2-10%), glycerol (25-65%), and mixing temperature (190-230 oC) were varied according to the three levels of the Box-Behnken design. The ANOVA evaluation revealed that glycerol had the most significant effect on the mechanical properties of the film. Then, three models for the estimation of tensile strength, elongation at break, and tear resistance were developed. As expected, the models satisfactorily predict the effect of all input variables on the response variables. The optimum conditions for preparing the film were acquired from the equations, namely 197.6 oC for the temperature, 10% for lignin, and 45.1% for glycerol. The biodegradable plastic prepared using the optimum conditions possessed a tensile strength of 8.46 ± 1.08 MPa, an elongation at break of 139.00 ± 8.59%, and a tear resistance of 69.50 ± 2.50 N/mm. These values are in good agreement with the predicted values. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2022-06-02-03 Full Text: PDF

Introduction: Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the ability to recognize one's own and other's emotions and capacity to utilize the emotional information to adjust to the environment. Nurse with high EI is found to have a better interpersonal relationship, higher job satisfaction, better leadership abilities, and better academic achievement. There is a gap in information regarding EI in nursing students of Morang district.
Objective: The objective of the study was to find out the emotional intelligence and its association with selected socio-demographic variables among undergraduate nursing students of selected colleges of Morang district, Nepal.
Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study carried out from June 2020 to November 2020 among 423 undergraduate nursing students of Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences, Hamro School of Nursing and Koshi Health and Science Campus. Ethical clearance was obtained from Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences- Institutional Review Committee (PUSHS-IRC) and informed consent were taken from study participants. A standard tool, “The Schutte Self Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT)” was used. Data was collected through a google form. Univariate and bivariate analysis was performed. P-value <0.05 at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant for bivariate analysis.
Results: Majority (75.4%) of nursing students had a high level of EI score and 24.6% of the students had a moderate level of EI score. There was no statistically significant association of total EI score with any of the selected demographic variables. Further, the selected domains such as perception of emotion with an academic year of study (p=0.02), occupation of the mother (p=0.017), management of other's emotions with a year of the study (p=0.018), and utilization of emotion with the type of schooling (p=0.003) were statistically significant.

Comparative Study of Continuous Versus Intermittent Subglottic Suction Drainage to Prevent Ventilator Associated Pneumonia in Intubated Patients
Authors: Bajracharya Akriti , Rajbanshi Lalit Kumar 
Published: March 2022

Introduction: Subglottic secretion drainage reduces the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). The efficacy of Continuous subglottic secretion drainage (CSSD) over Intermittent subglottic secretion drainage (ISSD) for prevention of VAP is unknown.
Objectives: Compare the efficacy of CSSD and ISSD in terms of incidence of VAP, mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay and incidence of reintubation.
Methodology: This was a prospective comparative study conducted at Birat Medical College and Teaching Hospital. A total number of 80 intubated patients for at least 48 hours duration were included. Continuous and intermittent endotracheal suctioning techniques were compared for prevention of VAP and secondary outcomes in terms of length of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay, multiorgan failure, reintubation and mortality rate.
Results: The incidence of VAP was 15% and 22.5 % in CSSD group while it was 17.5% and 27.5% in ISSD group in first 48 hours and 96 hours of mechanical ventilation respectively.The length of mechanical ventilation was significantly less in continuous group (4.78 ± 2.50 days) than in intermittent group (7.18 ± 2.09 days) with p value of 0.023. The patients with CSSD had significantly shorter ICU stay (5.49 ± 3.16 days) as compared to the patients with ISSD (8.46 ± 2.06 days). The incidence of reintubation was significantly higher in intermittent group patients (p value 0.024). Patients in both the group had comparable incidence of multiorgan failure, spontaneous breathing trial and mortality rate.
Conclusion: The incidences of VAP and mortality were comparable in CSSD and ISSD. However CSSD significantly decreased the duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay and incidence of reintubation..
Changes in Level of C-reactive Protein at 0 hours and at 72 hours among Neonates with Suspected Sepsis at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital
Authors: Yadav Ramesh , Rimal Hemsagar 
Published: March 2022

Introduction: Neonatal sepsis still remains serious and potentially life-threatening events with a mortality rate of up to 50% in very premature infants. Efforts were made to improve laboratory sepsis diagnosis. C-reactive protein (CRP) is the most extensively studied acute phase reactant so far. Very few studies have been done to see the variation of serial measurement of CRP titer.
Objectives: To find out the level of CRP titer at 0 hour and at 72 hours among neonates with suspected sepsis at the neonatal intensive care unit of Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital.
Methodology: It was a cross-sectional descriptive study from 26 March 2021 to 25 July 2021, to see serial CRP titre among the sepsis suspected neonates at the Neonatal intensive care unit of Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital. A Total of 95 cases of neonates suspected sepsis were enrolled and their serial CRP titre at o0 hour and 72 hours were studied. The data was entered into Microsoft office excel and analyzed using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS 20.0)
Results: There was no significant association of gender, birth weight, mode of delivery and gestational age with an increase of CRP at 0 to 72 hours after birth. Among the enrolled neonates 34 had positive blood culture while 61 had blood culture which was sterile. It showed that, 70.6% who had blood culture positive had increased CRP level at 0 to 72 hours whereas only 29.4% had not no increment in CRP despite positive blood culture.
Conclusions: CRP titre increment at 72 hours after the first one correlated better with culture proven sepsis in comparison to CRP titer increment at 0 hours after birth. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values as calculated in this study are not high enough to make it a good screening test. The test is not specific enough to rely upon as the sole indicator. The clinical judgment along with other hematological parameters and diagnostic markers along with serial CRP should be considered in evaluating a neonate for sepsis.
