Security Length Associated with the Risk of Ammonia Tank Leak Using CTOA Criterion and ALOHA Software

Received: 06 August 2024;  Published: 31 October 2024;  doi: 10.21926/jept.2404018

Abstract

Ammonia is a toxic gas and can cause tragic consequences for humans. The damage level depends on concentration and duration of exposure. The security length associated with the risk of a tank leak at the acute exposure level of 30 ppm (AEGL-1) has been computed. Two tools have been combined: the CTOA criterion and the ALOHA software. The CTOA, a measure of fracture resistance against ductile crack propagation, is implemented in Abaqus software to compute the size of a breach in a tank submitted to internal pressure [...]

Open Access Concept Paper

Time is a Precious Commodity: Reframing Farmer Stress and Mental Health Through the Lens of Time Poverty

Received: 24 September 2024;  Published: 16 January 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.icm.2501005

Abstract

In this conceptual paper we apply the construct of time poverty to a novel population, farmers struggling with stress and mental health challenges. Farmers have rates of suicide that can be over three times that of the general population, with depression and anxiety at double general population rates. These are linked to the multiple stressors farmers experience due to the unpredictable nature of their work, such as weather, input costs, commodity prices, and government regulations. In addition, there are multiple [...]

Compassionate Love for a Romantic Partner among Brazilian College Students

Received: 08 February 2024;  Published: 12 April 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.neurobiol.2402217

Abstract

Compassionate love (CL) is a recent subject of close relationships. CL is focused on enlarging beneficence to another. The present study approaches the test of the psychometric characteristics of the shortened form of the Compassionate Love Scale for a partner (CLS-P-SF) for Brazilian college students and its relationships with background and well-being variables. The sample included 217 young adults, 46.1% women and 53.9% men. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the single latent factor of the CLS-P-SF is g [...]

Unique Female Patient with de novo 6q22.31q27 Duplication and Xq28 Deletion: Case Report and Brief Literature Review

Received: 02 April 2024;  Published: 30 August 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2403259

Abstract

6q22.31q27 duplication and Xq28 deletion lead to two specific different rare chromosomal disorders. Partial trisomy 6q22.31q27 is a recognizable syndrome with a distinctive phenotype, and the most common finding in girls with Xqter deletions has been premature ovarian failure (POF) and secondary amenorrhea. To our knowledge, neither abnormality in one patient has yet been reported. A 10-year-old girl with de novo 6q22.31q27 duplication and Xq28 deletion was diagnosed by chromosomal microarray and confirmed by fluor [...]

Urban Policy Response to Radical Innovation in Sustainable Energy: The Case of University Spin-Offs and Local Triple Helix Interaction

Received: 11 July 2022;  Published: 16 January 2023;  doi: 10.21926/aeer.2301007

Abstract

This paper pictures several risk-taking strategies of young high-tech firms in bringing energy inventions to market and ways urban policy (municipalities) may provide supporting facilities and help accelerate the energy transition. Derived from a longitudinal study of 100 firms in northwest Europe, two findings contribute to practice. Firstly, a share of almost 40 percent of university spin-off firms fails in the market introduction; if the market introduction is reached, 30 percent is relatively late. This develop [...]

Evaluation of Total Parenteral Nutrition in the Autologous Transplantation Setting in Patients with AML: A Retrospective Exploratory Analysis

Received: 29 July 2023;  Published: 04 February 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.transplant.2401206

Abstract

Malnutrition remains a clinical challenge in AML patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT), leading to physical deconditioning and prolonged hospitalization. Prospective data are mainly lacking to identify those patients who may particularly benefit from parenteral nutrition in this setting. This observational, non-randomized, retrospective, exploratory cohort study assessed the nutritional development in patients following high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with ASCT and explored the [...]

Received: 24 November 2024;  Published: 10 June 2025;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2502296

Abstract

Generally, in reciprocal translocations there are no gains or losses of genetic material. From the clinical point of view, its primary importance lies in the fact that it can generate errors due to incorrect chromosome segregation during meiosis in carriers. On the other hand, other mutations are less frequent in the genome, specifically in the DNA breakpoints implied in these translocations. In Latin America there are no large-scale reports about this topic. To contribute to the study of reciprocal translocations [...]
