Abstract: Background: Calcium oxalate test is currently the chemical method employed in testing endpoint of decalcification in acid decalcification. However, there are challenges with this existing method used; firstly, the method takes a long duration of 15-30 minutes to complete; secondly, the method uses ammonia which is a highly irritating gas with a sharp suffocating odor necessitating its use in a fume hood; thirdly, exposure to ammonia gas through breathing, swallowing or skin contact causes burning and irritation of the contact surfaces, coughing and can result in blindness, lung damage or death; fourthly, ammonia loses potency over time and lastly, containers of ammonia may explode when exposed to high heat. Additionally, when a high concentration of ammonia is mixed with air, it can explode when ignited. Accordingly, there is a need to device a new chemical method for testing endpoint of decalcification in acid decalcification.

Abstract: This article aims to provide a analysis of the pressing financial sector challenges that South Africa is currently facing due to climate change (CC). South Africa is likely to experience numerous impacts as a result of climate change. Adaptation is gaining more and more recognition for its significance, impacting not only local communities but also regional and national administrations. It is important to recognise that there may be certain l imitations to adaptation, particularly in situations where incomes are lower. Climate-related events are already causing significant harm to the lives of many South Africans. It is clear that the economic and financial impacts are becoming more apparent as we witness a rise in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, leading to significant financial losses. Investments made by the private s e c t o r i n l o w - c a r b o n i n n o v a t i o n , infrastructure, energy, and transportation present both promising opportunities and potential risks. Moreover, there are exciting prospects to contemplate. Similar to an auditor, the financial system has the ability to provide valuable indicators that can help the private sector effectively manage climate risks and ensure a seamless transition. Effective collaboration among those involved in setting accounting standards, credit rating organisations, and regulatory bodies is crucial for generating accurate signals.

Abstract: In linguistics, dimension words play a vital role in describing the spatial attributes of objects, such as height, length, thickness, and depth. These words are crucial for providing detailed information about the shape and size of objects, which are fundamental to our understanding of the physical world. Among these dimension words, “thin” in English and “薄” in Chinese represent an essential category of adjectives used to describe the property of thinness. This paper explores the semantics of these monosyllabic dimension words, focusing on their literal meanings, metaphorical extensions, and the cognitive and cultural factors that shape their usage in English and Chinese.

Abstract: There is an enormous need for advanced technology in Sri Lanka, with the need to raise an alert immediately to the lifeguards and swimmers nearby in case a person crosses into dangerous deep-water zones. This paper presents the development of a novel sensor-based system capable of detecting and warning lifeguards whenever a person enters unsafe zones in the water. It detects objects on the water surface by use of ultrasonic sensors and passive infrared sensors that help tell if the detected object is a living being or not by checking on the heat signature. It runs on a rechargeable battery and a solar panel, making it efficient and self-sustaining. Testing detected that during the day, the maximum range of system detection was 3.5 meters, while at night it was 4 meters with rates of 79% and 86%, respectively. These results indicate that this sensor-based system would increase water safety through real-time alerts, hence reducing drowning-related fatalities, and probable future improvements with better sensors in order to enhance the accuracy and detection range of the system.

Abstract: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide, accounting for about 25% of maternal deaths. The most common cause of PPH is uterine atony, which occurs when the uterus fails to contract adequately after delivery, resulting in uncontrolled bleeding from the placental site. Uterine atony is responsible for 70-80% of PPH cases. This article aims to review the pathophysiology, risk factors, prevention, and management of uterine atony and to provide evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice. The article is based on a systematic literature search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar databases, using the keywords “uterine atony”, “postpartum hemorrhage”, “prevention”, and “management”. The article summarizes the current knowledge and gaps in the understanding of uterine atony and its implications for maternal health. The article also discusses the challenges and opportunities for improving the quality of care and reducing the burden of PPH and uterine atony.

Abstract: This article explores the cross-border business potential within the Mandera Triangle, a region formed by the borders of Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia. The article provides a comprehensive examination of the region socio-economic opportunities and challenges, with a particular focus on agriculture and livestock trade. Utilizing a thorough desktop review of existing literature, policy documents, and reports, the article highlights the critical role of agriculture and livestock in local economies, emphasizing the impact of innovative practices and development projects like BORESHA. The findings reveal significant socio-economic opportunities driven by agricultural trade and livestock activities, which support food security and income generation. However, the region faces substantial challenges, including the pervasive nature of informal trade, political instability, and inadequate infrastructure. The informal trade, while essential for local livelihoods, often escapes regulatory oversight, complicating efforts to formalize the economy. Political and security challenges, including inter-clan conflicts and border disputes, further disrupt trade and development initiatives. Additionally, infrastructure deficits, such as poor road networks and limited access to healthcare and education, hinder economic growth. The policy and institutional framework section reviews current policies impacting cross-border trade, highlighting the effectiveness and gaps in regulatory environments. The role of various institutions, including government bodies and NGOs, is analyzed, showcasing successful collaborative efforts that have positively impacted the region. The study concludes with a summary of findings and actionable recommendations aimed at enhancing trade policies, supporting informal trade, and prioritizing infrastructure development.
